SEWAGE/EFFLUENT PUMP DESCRIPTION

Sewage pumps are pumps used to remove waste water that contains solids up to 2 inches in diameter. The most common application is for draining bathroom waste water to a sewer or septic line.

Effluent pumps are pumps used to remove gray water from septic tanks, sump pits, or laundry tray systems. Gray water is waste water from bathtubs, sinks, washing machines, and other kitchen appliances.

Intended for indoor use only. Installation of this pump outdoors, unprotected from the weather, may cause hazardous conditions and will void warranty. If using outdoors, protect pump from direct weather elements such as sun, rain, sleet, snow, and extreme temperature changes. Water inside the pump may freeze, limiting its performance and damaging the pump and pipes.

TROUBLESHOOTING

TROUBLESHOOTING WARNINGS

ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE PUMP FROM POWER SUPPLY before installing, servicing or making any adjustments.

LET PUMP COOL FOR A MINIMUM OF 2 HOURS BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO SERVICE. Submersible pumps contain oil that become pressurized and hot under normal operating conditions.

1. Submersible pump models have permanently lubricated bearings and require no additional lubrication.
2. Submersible pumps contain dielectric oil for cooling. Dielectric oil can be harmful to the environment. Follow state environmental laws when disposing of pump.
3. The pump motor is equipped with automatic resetting thermal protector and may restart unexpectedly. Protector tripping is an indication of motor overloading as a result of operating the pump at low heads, excessively high or low voltage, inadequate wiring, incorrect motor conditions, or at the end of product life.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

The pump should be inspected 3-4 times per year for pump movement or buildup of debris on the switch or float. Reposition pump if it has moved. Remove any debris that could interfere with the operation of the switch. Lack of proper routine maintenance will void warranty.

• Make sure the pump is plugged in to a working ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlet and the cord is in good shape. In damp areas, GFCI breakers may trip, effectively shutting off the effluent pump. Check in on your sewage pump and reset the GFCI if necessary.
• Ensure the pump is standing upright. Vibrations during operation can cause it to fall or tilt onto one side. This can jam the float so it can't activate the pump.
• Pour a bucket of water into the pit to make sure the pump starts automatically and the water drains quickly once the pump is on. If the pump doesn't start, have it serviced or replaced.
• Replace the tether switch every two (2) years. This maintenance will reduce the risk of improper pump operation, switch failure and/or flooding.
