Cutter Rotation; Electrical Connections - Franklin Electric FPS IGP-A Serie Manuel Du Propriétaire

Cutter Rotation

Risk of severe injury.
• Do not place hands, feet or clothing near the cutter mechanism when there is any possibility the
pump is connected to a power source. This pump contains a cutting mechanism with very sharp
edges that can cause severe bodily injury.
Check 3-phase models for proper cutter rotation prior to operation.
1. Ensure the wiring is complete and the disconnect switch is in the OFF position.
2. Lay the pump on its side and observe the cutter through the intake.
3. Turn disconnect switch to ON momentarily.
4. Verify that the cutter rotates counterclockwise.
5. If direction is wrong, interchange any two of three wires.

Electrical Connections

Risk of severe injury or death by electrical shock, high temperatures, or
pressurized fluids.
• To minimize risk of electrical shock, disconnect power before working on or around the system.
• In a 200-208 and 230 VAC direct wire installation, one side of the line going to the pump is always
electrically energized, regardless of whether the liquid level control switch is open or closed. To
avoid hazards when installing or servicing, install a double-pole disconnect near the pump installa-
tion.
• The flexible jacketed cord assembly mounted to the pump must not be modified in any way, with the
exception of shortening the cord to fit into a control panel. Any splice between the pump and the
control panel must be made within a junction box mounted outside of the basin and comply with the
National Electrical Code. Employ a licensed electrician.
• Be sure the electrical connection cannot be reached by rising water. Under no circumstances should
the junction box be located where it may become flooded or submerged by water.
1. Check the pump label for proper voltage required.
2. Connect to a circuit equipped with a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) device if required by code.
• Do not connect to a voltage other than that shown.
• The pump should be connected or wired to its own circuit with no other electric receptacles or
equipment in the circuit.
• The fuses or circuit breaker should be of ample capacity in the electrical circuit. For amperage rat-
ings, refer to nameplate and
3. For manual models, install a specific control panel and capacitor kit from FPS that matches the pump
for proper operation and third-party approval.
4. For three-phase grinder pumps, use with approved motor control that matches motor input in full load
amperes with overload elements selected or adjusted in accordance with control instructions.
