SP-330, SP-330D, SP-500, SSP-1000 Submersible Sump Pumps

Testing

1. Fill sump pit with water.
2. While the pump is draining the pit, verify that the
discharge piping is carrying the water to a point at
least 15 feet away from the foundation.
NOTICE
The outside piping must be tilted
downward to drain. This helps prevent debris from
entering the discharge pipe, and also prevents trapped
water from freezing which can damage the pump.
3. Install sump pit cover (not included) to prevent
debris from clogging or damaging the pump.

Maintenance Instructions

WARNING
!
• Always disconnect the electrical supply or
unplug the pump before attempting to install,
service, relocate, or perform any maintenance.
If the power source is out of sight, lock and tag
in the open (OFF) position to prevent unex-
pected power application. Failure to do so
could result in fatal electrical shock. Only a
qualified technician should repair this unit. Improper repair could result in fatal electrical
shock.
• The motor is oil filled and sealed for cooler
running. Allow 2 hours for motor to cool before
servicing. Hot oil under pressure could result
in severe burns.
1. Check the operation of the Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) on a monthly basis.
2. Keep pump inlet clean and free of all foreign
objects. Inspect at least once a year and clean
sump as needed.
3. Check pump for proper operation monthly by filling
sump with water until pump turns on.
4. Inspect all plumbing connections for any leaks or
looseness monthly.
(SSP-1000 Solid-State Water Sensor only)
5. Pump can be checked for proper operation by
briefly removing pump power cord from the back of
the Solid-State Water Sensor plug and inserting
directly into the grounded outlet. In this condition,
6
the pump will run continuously. Once pump opera-
tion is verified, replace pump power cord into the
back of the Solid-State Water Sensor plug (see
Figure 4) .
NOTE! Disassembly of the motor will void the
warranty.
