Installation Precautions
All installations must confirm with all building or fire codes, all Federal, State, and Local
codes, NEC, NFPA 70, NFPA 30, and Automotive and Marine Service Station Code
(NFPA 30A) codes and regulations. Canadian users must also comply with the Canadian
Electrical Code.
Plan the installation carefully. A dispensing unit cannot be expected to work satisfactorily
unless the underground installation is correct. Dispensing troubles are frequently traced to
faulty installation. Review the following list of installation DO’s and DO NOT’s to avoid
potential problems:
• Read the “Important Safety Information” on page 3 . It contains important information
regarding the safe use of dispensing equipment.
• Install an emergency power cutoff. In addition to circuit breaker requirements of NFPA 70
and NFPA 30A, a single control which simultaneously removes AC power from all site
dispensing equipment is recommended. This control must be readily accessible, clearly
labeled, and in accordance with all Local codes. In a fuel management system application,
the EMERGENCY STOP and STOP keys on the console and/or the optional
EMERGENCY STOP button on the Island Card Reader do not remove AC power from
equipment and under certain conditions, will not stop product flow. To provide the highest
level of safety to individual, staff, and customers, we recommend that all personnel be
trained as to the location and procedure for turning off power to the entire system.
• A competent installer/electrician must install the satellite dispensing unit.
• Install breakaway coupling on discharge hose. If using a high hose retriever, install
breakaway approximately 12” downstream of hose clamp on nozzle side of the clamp.
• DO NOT attempt to wire a pump or remote dispenser without first reviewing the
appropriate wiring diagram and notes. This manual contains instructions for wiring
mechanical and electronics units. If the mechanical wiring diagram is used for an
electronic pump, then it will cause CPU PCB damage to the electronic pump.
• DO NOT experiment with a pump if you are not sure the installation is correct.
• DO NOT overload sub or main breaker panels.
• DO NOT install any underground piping without proper swing joints (always use shoulder
nipples, never close nipples).
• DO NOT cover any lines until they are both air-tested and liquid-tested.
• DO NOT back-fill the tank or supply line with cinders or ashes (back-fill with clean sand,
crushed rock, or pea gravel).
• DO NOT use black iron pipe or fittings for underground installations (use only new
galvanized or fiberglass pipe and fittings).
Note: Install all fiberglass pipe and fittings according to manufacturer’s specifications
and requirements.
• DO NOT use power line wiring of inadequate capacity.
Note: Use gauge specified by the wiring diagram or wire chart provided in “Wiring
Diagrams” on page 18 .
• DO NOT use a circuit breaker of improper size (refer to “Wiring” on page 15 ).
