a)
The minimum current rating of the cable is 20 amps.
b)
Install the pump as close to the tank served by it as possible.
c)
The pump must never run dry.
SUCTION PORT: Always install a stop valve between the pump and the tank.
d)
e)
HOSE: For the suction line, use a 1-1/2" I.D. hose (which is non-coilable and
rated for vacuum). Use stainless steel band clips for all connections.
FLANGE: The appliance can be installed on a 1-1/2" female-thread flange by
f)
cutting off the suction port stub at the thread. Seal the threads and tighten the
connection by hand.
g)
DISCHARGE: For the discharge line, use a 1" or larger I.D. hose. Connect it to
the outboard through-fitting in the hull located above the maximum point of
heel-in and above the water line. If the system features a vent loop, it shall
have the air bleed located at least 10" above the maximum point of in-heel and
above the water line.
Use stainless steel band clips for all sewer connections.
CAUTION! Any air leak into the suction side may cause the pump to run dry
and damage the rotor and its housing.
Inspect all suction-side connections, even the through-fittings in deck panels. All
lines shall be smooth and free of kinks or sharp bends.
h)
Connect the pump to a separate power line from the power source.
i)
Connect the power line to the pump through a separate, suitably rated
momentary switch. This will help prevent a pump failure from long dry runs.
j)
All wiring connections shall be installed above the highest water line. To ensure
additional protection, seal all wiring connections and adjacent wire ends with
liquid electrical insulation.
k)
The connectors for all wiring shall be crimped and sealed with a marine sealant.
l)
Always install a fuse with a suitable rating to protect the electrical system. If
there is a short circuit, an unsuitable rating of the fuse increases the risk of
pump failure and may potentially result in injury and/or a risk of fire.
3.2. Cleaning and maintenance
a)
Install a service switch in an accessible location for easy operation of the
pump's electrical power source. Always stop the pump if it is not going to be
used for a long time or when the tank is empty.
b) Routinely maintain and clean the pump. Failure to ensure hygienic treatment
and maintenance is one of the reasons for low discharge capacity of the pump.
