HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION (see Figs. 1 & 2):
1. Glue ¾” stub onto drain pan outlet adapter.
2. Press switch/cap assembly firmly into top 1” opening in Tee, until the rim is flush against the Tee opening. If more sensitivity is desired, the
switch can be threaded out of the cap. DO NOT GLUE THE SWITCH/CAP INTO THE TEE.
3. Glue 1”x ¾” bushing into remaining 1” Tee outlet.
4. Glue bushed inlet of Tee onto ¾” stub from pan outlet. Tee may be sloped up to 45° from pan outlet. If more slope is needed, see VERTICAL
INSTALLATION, below.
5. For plugged installation on auxiliary outlets, seat plug firmly into ¾” outlet of Tee, ensuring it is water tight. DO NOT GLUE. Pipe tape may
be required to ensure seal.
6. For inline installation, glue ¾” outlet of Tee onto drain line.
7. Wire the switch as per instructions under Wiring, below
8. Test the switch by liting the float while the unit is running. If wired correctly, the unit will stop.
9. Test all drain and fitting connections for plumbing leaks.
10. Test switch sensitivity: Plug drain downstream from installation point and run unit to fill pan. Float should rise and unit should stop before pan
overflows. If the pan overflows, reposition the float lower by either:
A. plumbing the entire assembly lower, or
B. loosening the jamb nut on the threaded stem and adjust the height of the float as necessary.
Test for proper sensitivity. Retighten jamb nut.
