GENERAL INFORMATION:
Pump Models: These instructions cover the
installation and service of the Myers pumps as listed
on the front cover. The hazardous location models
are Factory Mutual approved and listed hazardous
location for hazardous sewage locations Class 1,
Division 1, Groups C,D.
Motor HP & Voltages: These pumps are offered in
a three phase wiring conguration only. Voltages will
vary according to the application.
Electrical Controls: All of these pump models must
be used with a control panel. Myers built control
panels are designed to supply the correct electrical
controls, motor starting equipment and include
the circuitry for moisture and heat sensors. It is
recommended that a Myers built control panel be
used so that all warranties apply.
General Construction: The motor construction is
designed to meet Factory Mutual’s requirements for
Class 1, Division 1, Groups C,D sewage applications.
The hazardous location models are certied and
nameplated with this approval. The motor chamber
and seal chamber are lled with a high dielectric
type oil for improved lubrication and heat transfer
of the bearings and motor. Since the bearings have
been designed for 50,000 hours of life, the oil should
never require replacement under normal operating
conditions. An air space above the oil level in
both the seal and motor chambers is provided to
allow for the expansion of the oil when at operating
temperature. The power and control lines are sealed
and strain relieved by a grommet in the cord cap, and
internally through the use of a dielectric potting resin
surrounding the electrical wires.
