If using the linear blower (Thomas model LW250) attach the 1-inch galvanized male adapter to the blower using the supplied hose and clamps. Next attach the 2-inch Schedule 40 PVC reducer to the male adapter, then connect the PVC line to the reducer using PVC solvent. 7. Air Compressor Placement Do not install the air pump(s) in a low-lying area where water may accumulate. The air pump should be installed near the control panel and within 100 ft. of the reactor tank. The air pump can be installed outdoors or in a clean, well ventilated area, such as a tool room, garage, etc. 8. Mounting Control Panel Mount the control panel in a location such that the alarm can be heard and be readily observed. The control panel must be connected to a 20-amp maximum electrical source equipped with a ground fault interrupter (GFI) circuit breaker. Install a power disconnect switch to the panel that is operable and available to a maintenance provider. The control panel must be grounded. Connect the source ground wire to the ground location in the panel. All electrical work shall be done according to NEC and local code requirements. A. Attach control panel to a suitable mounting surface. Use appropriate screws for all four mounting holes on the back of the enclosure. B. The control panel contains a fuse or circuit breaker for the air pump. An electrical malfunction in the air pump, or wiring to the air pump, will cause the fuse or circuit breaker to blow. The control panel also contains a pressure switch and visual and audible alarms. Loss of air pressure caused by air pump system malfunction, or a high-water level in the treatment tank, will cause the alarm to sound and light to illuminate. C. Control panel is rated for outdoor service. However, do not place it where it can be immersed in rising water or where runoff water such as from a roof will pour onto it. Do not mount it where it is subject to wetting from sprinklers, hoses, etc. D. Connect conduit. After the control panel is properly mounted, connect conduit and install wiring as shown on drawings bound herein (Schematics). E. Connect the pressure air tubing to the 1/8” barb-fitting in the air piping system. The air tubing should be protected by conduit as shown on the drawing. 9. System Startup Turn power on. Once the tank water level reaches the outlet tee, turn power on to control panel. Air pump should start. A. Set the high-level pressure switch.To set the high-level pressure switch that detects high water level in the unit bring the tank to operating water level with compressor turned on. Using properly sized screwdriver turn high level alarm adjustment screw clockwise until alarm occurs. Then turn the screw counterclockwise until alarm stops. B. Check air piping joints for leakage using a soapy water solution. Repair if necessary and then carefully backfill air distribution piping and tanks. C. Finish grade the site. Divert surface water away from the system and install or plant ground cover to prevent erosion. D. Tank is ready to receive incoming sewage. No special start-up procedures are required. The process is naturally occurring and does not require any special additives. E. Replace and secure all tank access lids. Close up the enclosure door on control panel and lock if necessary. F. Spend time with your customer whenever possible. Review operation instructions. Be sure that the customer has a manual to keep. This saves valuable time avoiding return visits. G. Retain these instructions for future reference. WARNING: CONTROL PANEL CONTAINS HIGH VOLTAGE AND MUST BE INSTALLED AND SERVICED ONLY BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL Figure 5
