Piping; Wiring And Grounding - Xylem GOULDS WATER TECHNOLOGY 1GD51G1A Serie Manual De Instruccion

NOTICE: FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT ARE
PROVIDED WITH THE GUIDE RAIL ASSEMBLY.

PIPING

Discharge piping should be no smaller than the pump
discharge diameter and kept as short as possible, avoiding
unnecessary fittings to minimize friction losses.
Install a check valve to prevent fluid backflow. Backflow
can allow the pump to "turbine" backwards and may cause
premature seal and/or bearing wear. If the pump is turning
backwards when it is called on to start the increased torque
may cause damage to the pump motor and/or motor shaft
and some single-phase pumps may actually run backwards.
Install an adequately sized gate valve after the check valve for
pump, plumbing and check valve maintenance.
Important – Before pump installation. Drill a
relief hole in the discharge pipe. It should be located within
the wetwell, 2" (51mm) above the pump discharge but be-
low the check valve. The relief hole allows any air to escape
from the casing. Allowing liquid into the casing will insure that
the pump can start when the liquid level rises. Unless a relief
hole is provided, a bottom intake pump could "air lock" and
will not pump water even though the impeller turns.
All piping must be adequately supported, so as not to impart
any piping strain or loads on the pump.
The pit access cover must be of sufficient size to allow for
inspection, maintenance and crane or hoist service.

WIRING AND GROUNDING

Important notice: Read Safety Instructions before proceeding
with any wiring.
Use only stranded copper wire to pump/motor and
ground. The ground wire must be at least as large as
the power supply wires. Wires should be color coded
for ease of maintenance and troubleshooting.
Install wire and ground according to the National Elec-
trical Code (NEC), or the Canadian Electrical Code, as
well as all local, state and provincial codes.
Install an all leg disconnect switch where required by
code.
Disconnect and lockout electrical power before per-
forming any service or installation.
The electrical supply voltage and phase must match
all equipment requirements. Incorrect voltage or
phase can cause fire, motor and control damage, and
voids the warranty.
All splices must be waterproof. If using splice kits fol-
low manufacturer's instructions.
Select the correct type and NEMA grade
WARNING

tion. The junction box must insure dry, safe

Important – Read Before Proceeding
Single-Phase Motor Design Change Information –
Only for New Pump Installed on Older Panel.
Overload and Capacitors: Single-phase pumps built after
Dec.1, 2005 (M05 date code) now feature a built-in, on
winding overload. If replacing a pre-Dec 2005 pump (date
code L05 or earlier) you have to change the capacitors in the
old style control panel.
Pilot Duty Thermal Sensor/Overload Wire: Pre-Dec 2005
single-phase pumps had a pilot-duty thermal sensor wire
connected between the pump and an overload heater
block in the control panel, you will have to install a jumper
wire across the two high temperature/overload terminals
when installing a new pump on an old panel or the new
pump may not operate.
Standard single-phase pumps no longer have a Pilot Duty
Thermal Sensor Wire but it is available as an option. Another
option is a Seal Fail Sensor & Wire. Please use the Nomencla-
ture data found in this manual and the pump Order Number
to determine which optional features are on the pump being
installed.
CONTROL PANEL REQUIREMENTS
Single Phase Control Panels – Eff. Dec. 2005, M05 date
code, Series 1GD and 12GDS single phase grinder pumps
require a control panel containing as a minimum:
• Magnetic contactor
• Start capacitor
• Run capacitor
• Start relay
• Terminal wiring strip for all external connections.
