Standard Type 115 panels are designed to operate with two floats.
These floats operate the pump and high level alarm functions. Wide
angle pump switch and SJE Double Float™ applications are illustrated
on next page.
NOTE: Options ordered may affect the number of floats and their
functions. Please reference the schematic provided with the control
panel for proper installation.
Installation of Floats
CAUTION: If control switch cables are not wired and mounted in the
correct order, the pump system will not function properly.
WARNING: Turn off all power before installing floats in pump chamber.
Failure to do so could result in serious or fatal electrical shock.
1. Use float label kit to label floats for specific operation (stop, lead,
lag, alarm, etc.). See schematic for float options.
2. Determine your normal operating level, as illustrated in Figures 1
3. Mount float switches at appropriate levels as illustrated in Figure
3. Be sure that floats have free range of motion without touching
each other or other equipment in the basin.
4. For mounting clamp installation: place the cord into the clamp as
shown in Figure 3. Locate the clamp at the desired activation level
and secure the clamp to the discharge pipe as shown in Figure 3.
NOTE: Do not install cord under hose clamp.
5. Tighten the hose clamp using a screwdriver. Over tightening may
result in damage to the plastic clamp. Make sure the float cable is
not allowed to touch the excess hose clamp band during operation.
NOTE: All hose clamp components are made of 18-8 stainless steel
material. See your SJE Rhombus® supplier for replacements.
