Codes:
All local wiring codes must be
observed. Consult the local
inspector before installation to
avoid costly delays that can
occur due to rejection after job
is finished.

Seal Failure Probes:
All
hazardous
submersible pumps have two
factory-installed
detectors (seal failure probes).
They are in a normally open series
circuit in the seal chamber. Under
normal operating conditions the
circuit remains open. If the lower
seal leaks and moisture enters this
chamber, the moisture would
settle to the bottom of the
chamber and will complete the
circuit between the moisture
detectors.
This circuit must be connected to
a sensing unit and signaling
device. This is supplied in a
Hydromatic control panel.
NOTE: Failure to install such a
device negates all warranties by
Hydromatic pumps.
Heat Sensors:
All motors in this family have
heat sensors on or embedded in
the motor winding to detect
excessive heat. This prevents
damage to the motor. If the sensor
trips due to excessive winding
temperature, the starter in the
panel breaks power to the pump.
Once the sensor resets, the starter
is to be reset (automatic for FM)
for continued operation of the
pump. This circuitry is supplied in
a Hydromatic control panel. The
sensors are set to trip at 120
degrees Celsius.
NOTE: Failure to install such
circuitry would negate FM
approval and all warranties by
Hydromatic pumps.
