INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
All installations must conform with all building/fire codes, all Federal, State, and Local codes,
National Electrical Code, (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 your installation carefully. Dispensing troubles, which seem to be related to the pump or
Electric Keytrol, are frequently traced to the installation. Review the following list of installation
DO’s and DON’T’s to avoid potential problems:
1.
DO read the WARNINGS page at the front of this manual, preceding the Table of Contents.
It contains important information regarding the safe use of your dispensing equipment.
2.
DO 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 order to provide the highest level of safety to you, your employees, and customers, we
recommend that all employees be trained as to the location and procedure for turning off
power to the entire system.
3.
DO have the Electric Keytrol installed by a competent installer/electrician.
4.
DO NOT experiment with a pump or Electric Keytrol if you are not sure that the installation is
correct.
5.
DO NOT overload sub or main breaker panels.
6.
DO NOT use power line wiring of inadequate capacity. (Use gauge specified by the wiring
diagram or wire chart provided in the Wiring section of this manual.)
7.
DO NOT use circuit breaker of improper size (See Wiring section of this manual).
8.
DO NOT use knock-out boxes or flexible conduit for installing this unit. All wires should be
run in threaded, rigid metal conduit. All threaded connections must be drawn up tight with
five (5) threads minimum engagement. At completion of the installation, it is the installer’s
responsibility to ensure that any unused openings are plugged.
