  • Page 6: Basic Operation

    Basic Operation The grinder pump is designed to grind and pump domestic sewage. The pump is a semi- positive displacement, progressing cavity pump. The grinder pump consists of a pump assembly with an integral sewage grinder and shredder device. The pump traps a column of air in the sensing bell for the on-off pressure switch.

  • Page 8: Supply Voltage Checks

    Supply Voltage Checks The Environment One grinder pump is equipped with a 1725 rpm, 1 hp, multi-tap 120V/240V motor. The operating voltage parameters of the motor are plus or minus 10 percent of the specific application, equating to 108V to 132V in the 120V application and 216V to 264V in the 240V application.

    Buck Boost Transformer — 240V Application If the supply voltage on a 240V application is 208V 3 phase, a buck boost transformer must be installed. Not installing the transformer will shorten the life of the motor significantly. A buck boost transformer manipulates one leg of the supply voltage. It will raise the one leg approximately 32V (240V –...

  • Page 13: Amperage Checks

    Amperage Checks Using a clamp-on amp meter can be helpful for identifying problems such as a restricted or blocked discharge line, blown stator, or faulty check valve/anti-siphon. Set the clamp-on amp meter to the appropriate scale. Hook the probe around the black power lead in the alarm panel. With the power on, fill the tank until the pump operates, or press the push-to-run switch in the alarm panel.

  • Page 21: Chapter 3 - Pump Removal And Replacement

    Chapter 3 — Pump Removal and Replacement The procedure for removing and replacing the pump is different for D-Series, W-Series and IH stations. Refer to the following instructions for each model. D-Series Stations Open the alarm panel and shut off all power to the pump and the alarm system. Remove the station lid.
  • Page 22: W-Series And Upgrade Stations

    W-Series and Upgrade Stations Open the alarm panel and shut off all power going to the pump and alarm system. Remove the station lid. Disconnect the EQD. If the tray cable side of the EQD is wet or shows evidence of moisture, the EQD insert must be replaced.
  • Page 23: Chapter 4 - Start-Up Procedure

    Chapter 4 — Start-Up Procedure Station Inspection Inspect the following: Proper burial depth (1 to 4 inches below the hinged cover/transition joint). The ground must be graded to prevent water from pooling around the station. Free from damage and leaks. The Equalizer tube/power cable must be hung at the top of the station and not lay on the pump or in wastewater.
  • Page 24: Run Test

    If the tests do not pass, unplug the EQD in tank. Repeat the test at the alarm panel, then at the pump EQD. The EQD pin numbers are listed with the corresponding wire colors in the tables. This will help pinpoint where a problem is located. Note: Green 4 to Yellow 5 and Blue 6 must show Infinity or open line when testing at the pins in the pump EQD.
  • Page 25: Chapter 5 - Pump End

    Chapter 5 — Pump End Removing the Pump Stator Remove the retaining clips from the bottom of the level sensor. Lay the pump core on its side. Support the motor head on a 4x4 wooden block. On W-Series, Gatorgrinder and Upgrade pumps, remove the wire stand from the pump.
  • Page 26 Figure 5-3 Remove the cutter wheel by placing a plastic mallet, punch or drift on one of the paddles and striking the mallet, punch or drift with another hammer. Repeat until the cutter wheel spins free. The cutter wheel is threaded onto the armature shaft with a conventional right hand thread.
  • Page 27: Pump Stator Inspection

    Figure 5-6 Slide the stator and liner off of the rotor. The liner may be inside of the suction housing. The liner must be removed and replaced when the stator is replaced. The liner protects the stator from wearing against the suction housing. Inspect the stator for wear.
  • Page 28: Swollen Pump Stator

    Lobes Worn Smooth. Old age is the most common reason for smooth wear. The average life of a stator operating in a single-family home (300 gpd) is about 10 years. Higher incoming flows will shorten the life of the stator. If two homes are on the same station, the stator will last about five years.
  • Page 29: Inspecting A Pump Rotor

    Inspecting a Pump Rotor The pump rotor has a life expectancy of about 15 years. Besides age, the following can cause rotor wear: • High flow (business, industry or infiltration) • Abrasives • Pump running dry The rotor does not have to be removed from the motor shaft for inspection. When inspecting the rotor, do not worry about scratches, lines, casting marks or pit marks.
  • Page 30: Removing The Pump Rotor

    Removing the Pump Rotor Support the end of the motor shaft with a wooden block. Use a hammer and a 1/8-inch punch to remove the groove pin that retains the pump rotor. Figure 5-8 Slide the rotor off of the shaft. If the rotor sticks, use a plastic mallet to tap the end of the rotor until it comes off.

  • Page 61 Motor Start Switch The control bracket must be removed in order to access the start switch. The motor start switch is mounted to the control bracket and has three spade terminals. Terminals 1 and 3 are attached to a coil; a reed switch runs inside the coil. When the pump motor is energized, a magnetic field is created that engages and disengages the start winding.
  • Page 62: Motor Cavity Water Test

    Thermal Protector The thermal protector keeps the motor from running too long above its rated amperage, preventing possible motor or pump damage. This is an auto-reset switch; two wires are permanently attached to the protector on the normally closed contacts. A second thermal is wound into the windings of the motor and protects the motor from overheating.
  • Page 63: Motor Windings Test

    Motor Windings Test Perform motor winding resistance checks per the following charts to verify motor condition. Note: While all of the wires are disconnected between the control bracket and the power cable, replace the two O-rings on the motor casting before rewiring the controls. Use Molycote 55 grease on the motor housing and the motor head O-rings.

  • Page 65: Chapter 10 - Motor Cavity

    Chapter 10 — Motor Cavity A defective or shorted motor; worn seal or bearings; or flooded motor require major repair. Major repairs must be performed in a shop that is equipped with the correct tools and clean facilities for proper repair and testing. Any time a pump is rebuilt, all seals, O-rings, gaskets, bearings, pump stator and pump liner should be replaced.
  • Page 66: Motor Drying Techniques

    Note: If the upper bearing remains in the motor bearing bore, the freeze plug will have to be removed and the bearing punched out. A new freeze plug will need to be installed. Remove the pump rotor. Support both ends with wooden blocks to avoid bending the armature shaft.

    Chapter 11 — Mechanical Seal Assembly The mechanical seal is a carbon/ceramic type with spring bellows. The seal kit (PT# 1208) consists of the ceramic portion, carbon portion/spring bellows, Pac–Ease, instruction sheet, seven lock nuts and four main sealing O-rings. The seal is easily installed with the motor turned upside down or lying on its side with the pump end facing the installer.

  • Page 71: Chapter 12 - Final Test Procedures

    Chapter 12 — Final Test Procedures Leak Tests Leaks must be repaired before performing other tests or installing the unit for use. Failure to test the unit can result in core flooding or a damaged unit. After leak testing is complete, perform the remaining test procedures.
  • Page 72 Figure 12-3 Use a regulated low pressure line or hand pump to pressurize the motor cavity to 5 psi and look for bubbles. Bubbles from the discharge elbow indicate a seal leak and bubbles from around the motor head/motor housing joint indicate a motor housing O-ring leak.
  • Page 73: Test Run

    Test Run A test tank and panel (available from E/One) are recommended for run-testing the pump. The test tank has a discharge assembly for D-Series pumps, or slide face the W-Series pumps. A pressure gauge and ball valve should be added to operate the pump under pressure. A two- tank setup with sump pump to pump water back to the test tank is ideal.
  • Page 74 A jammed grinder may trip the circuit breaker or cause the overload protector to cycle and this will cause the pump to cycle on and off and finally result in an alarm condition. A torn or worn out pump stator results in a “runs but does not pump” condition and causes an alarm. Current readings with a clamp-on amp meter will show 4.0 to 4.5 amps when the motor is running without a load.
