Adjustment Of Cable Length For Float Switch; Electrical Connection - Grundfos Unilift AP12 Instrucciones De Instalación Y Funcionamiento

4.4 Adjustment of cable length for float
switch
The difference in level between start and stop
can be adjusted by changing the free cable
length between the float switch and the pump
handle.
• An increased free cable length will result in
fewer starts and stops and a large difference
in level.
• A reduced free cable length will result in
more frequent starts and stops and a small
difference in level.
The free cable length must be a minimum of 4
in. (100 mm) and a maximum of 14 in. (355 mm).
The stop level must be above the inlet strainer to
prevent the pump from taking in air.
