This pumping system requires the following elements: 1. Discharge Manifold Assembly - Installed below grade (NEC/Class 1, Group D, Division I area) 2. Motor -Pump Unit Assembly -Installed below grade (NEC/Class I, Group D, Division I area) 3. Control Box/Magnetic Starter An ".all inclusive" name plate will be found attached to the Extracta Head and can be inspected by removing the manhole cover directly over the pump. An additional name plate will be found on the control box. It is important to give the model number and serial number of this pump when corresponding With the factory for any reason. Read This Important Safety Information Before Beginning Work. 1. Units should be installed with manholes, or with discharge manifold casting above grade, to allow for ease in servicing. Red Jacket line leak detection systems do not function if the submersible pump runs continuous- ly. Running a pump continuously will cause line leak detection systems to not function which re- sults in a hazard that can cause damage to property, environment, resulting in serious Injury or death. 2. Never wire a submersible pump to run continuously at less than minimum flow rate. The units are designed to operate continuously at or above minimum flow rate, or with an intermittent duty cycle, not to exceed 20 on/off cycles per hour.. Should it be necessary to operate a unit continuously or when the demand is at a rate less than required per the information below, a bypass pipe should be installed in the piping to allow for continual product recirculation back into the storage tank. Regulation of the bypass flaw back to the tank can be accomplished by correct sizing of the bypass line or use of a gate valve. The recommended minimum bypass per unit is shown in Table A.

Red Jacket submersibles are not designed1to handle abrasives or foreign particles in the product being pumped. 4. Product temperature must never exceed 105°F (41 °C) as the submersible motors are equipped with thermal overload protection; Product temperature higher than 105T (41 °C) may result in tripping of the thermal overload protector. 5. Pumping water will overload the motor and damage the motor bearings. e
