Figure 2b (protective shroud) provided with the station to protect the exposed cable where it enters the station. Four self-tapping screws are provided. 5) Run the cable underground, in a trench or tunnel, to the location of the panel. Leave a 6- to 12-inch loop of cable at each end to allow for shifting and settling.

E/One Grinder Pump Station Ballast Calculations Any buried vessel that is submerged, or partially submerged, in water will be acted on by an upward buoyant force that attempts to return the vessel to a non-submerged state. The magnitude of this buoyant force is equal to the volume of the vessel that is submerged multiplied by the density of water.

E/One Grinder Pump Station Ballast Calculations Sample Calculation, DH272/DR272 Volume of Station Wet Well = 46.0 cu ft Station Weight = 705 lb Station Height = 96.0” A. Buoyant Force 1. The buoyant force acting on the submerged DH272-97 is equal to the weight of the displaced water for the section of the tank that is submerged (wet well).

Subtract the buoyant force from the ballast force to determine the final condition Final Condition = Ballast Force - Buoyant Force = 5973.0 lb – 2165.4 lb = 3807.6 lb The approach outlined above may be used to calculate the ballast requirements listed below.

Adjusting the Height of the Grinder Pump Station TO INCREASE STATION HEIGHT 6 INCHES 1. Increasing station height can be done without cutting the station. Use the E/One Extender cover shroud kit (ND0082G01) and follow the instructions that are included with the kit. TO INCREASE STATION HEIGHT MORE THAN 6 INCHES or TO REDUCE THE STATION HEIGHT: REMOVE EXISTING COVER ASSEMBLY (Fig.
