3 Phase Startup Procedure

If a Kasco Control Panel is not provided, please refer

to the following warnings:

When inherent overheating protection is not provided:

use with approved motor control that matches motor

input in full load amperes with overload element(s)

selected or adjusted in accordance with control

instructions.

Utiliser un démarreur approuvé convenant au courant

à pleine charge du moteur et dont les éléments

thermiques sont réglés ou choisis conformément aux

instructions qui l’accompagnent.

When inherent overheating protection is provided:

use with approved motor control that matches motor

input in full load amperes. See table below.

Utiliser un démarreur approuvé convenant au courant

à pleine charge du moteur.

Note: The motor input in full load amperes is the

marked value or the service factor amperes, shown on

the namplate.

Control panels must be installed by a qualified electri-

cian.

If unit is connected to a circuit protected by a fuse, use

a time-delay fuse with this pump.

You must verify motor rotation before installing

the unit in the water.

3phase Kasco units will run in a clockwise rotation

when looking down at the propeller. Stand clear of the

propeller while verifying rotation. If a Kasco 3 phase

panel is supplied, follow the intructions with the panel.

Also follow the steps below.

Electrician:

1. Verify all screw terminal connections are tightened to

specified torque setting prior to energizing the panel.

2. Verify the electrical service (voltage and Phase)

matches the control panel and aerator nameplates

ratings. Refer to the control panel instructions and

schematics for installation details.

3. Verify all switches, circuit breakers, and motor starters

are in the OFF position

4. Connect electrical service to this control panel as

shown in the electrical schematic that came with the

panel.

5. Connect the Aerator power cord to this panel as shown

in the electrical schematic.

6. Set the motor starter overload to the FLA rating on the

aerator nameplate.

7. Pump rotation: The pump rotation is clockwise

when looking down at the propeller. Apply power to

the control panel. Turn on the 15amp control circuit

breaker, and motor starter.

8. Momentarily turn the Hand-Off-Auto switch to Hand.

This will run the aerator. Do not run the aerator for

more than a few seconds on shore. If the rotation is

not correct. Disconnect and lock out power from the

control panel. Swap any two of the aerator power cord

wires in the panel. This will cause the motor to reverse

direction. Reapply power to the panel and verify the

rotation is clockwise.

9. Once rotation is verified, with the power disconnected

and locked out again, continue with installation of the

aerator as detailed in the owner’s manual.

Record the following data while the unit is operating

in the water under load:

Voltage:

Amperage:

L1-L2 ____________

L1_______________

L1-L3 ____________

L2_______________

L2-L3 ____________

L3_______________

Current unbalance should not exceed 5% at full load
