Page 7: Installing The Float Switch In The Chamber
AlertMaxx Installing the float switch in the chamber Installing a pendant float into a foul water chamber Option 1 - Free standing foul pump Using the cable tie provided, attach the float cable to the discharge arm allowing the bottom of the float switch to hang approximately 350mm above the base of the chamber (see figure 7). Option 2 - Guide rail mounted foul pump Pull the float cable through the float weight. Using a cable tie, secure the float weight to the float cable so there is 80mm of float cable between the top of the float switch and the bottom of the float weight. Drill a hole through the float bracket. Hang the pendant float from the float bracket so the bottom of the float switch hangs approximately 400mm from the base of the chamber. Once the pendant float is at the correct height, secure the float cable to the float bracket using a cable tie. PLEASE NOTE - The pendant float switch should be located in a position where the float can pivot with rising water levels and not become obstructed (see figure 8). - Page 8 AlertMaxx Installing the float switch in the chamber 300mm Figure 5.
