Safety Information; Risk Of Electric Shock - Liberty Pumps 442 Serie Manual De Instalación

1. Safety Information


ALWAYS disconnect BOTH the primary and backup pumps from their power sources before handling or making any adjust-
ments to either pump.

Only qualified personnel should complete fixed wiring, battery and electrical connections, according to all local and national
electrical codes, during a pump installation.

After installation, be certain that the pump is properly grounded, using its supplied grounding conductor. Use with a Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) is highly recommended, even in areas where GFCI use is not mandated by code.

During flood conditions, submerged electrical connections (including batteries) can energize the water. Always wear dielectric
rubber boots and other applicable Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) when water is on the floor and you must service an en-
ergized pump. DO NOT ENTER THE WATER if the water level is higher than that of the protection your PPE offers or if your
PPE is not watertight.

NEVER lift or carry a pump by its power cord. This will damage the power cord, and could expose the electrically live wires
inside the power cord.

DO NOT bypass grounding wires.

The electrical power supply shall be located within the length limitations of the pump power cord, and for below grade installa-
tions it shall be at least 1.22 m (4 feet) above floor level.

NEVER use this product in applications where human contact with the pumped fluid is common (such as swimming pools,
fountains, marine areas, etc.).
