general informaTion  
The Multiquip Model ST41230/ST41460 and ST61230/  
ST61460 submersible pumps are designed to pump  
water.These pumps work best when faced with high head  
applications where you need an appreciable flow.  
The pumping of flammable, toxic, corrosive, abrasive liquids  
is strictly forbidden.These pumps are best suited for clear  
water applications where maximum size of solids (debris)  
does not exceed 0.6-inches (15.2 mm).  
These pumps have a chrome steel body that is very durable  
and able to withstand rough handling. The ST41230/  
ST41460 comes with a 4-inch NPT threads for standard  
hose connections, while the ST61230/ST61460 comes  
with a 6-inch NPT threads for standard hose connections.  
The mechanical seal of these pumps operates within an  
oil-filled chamber that provides positive lubrication. This  
helps prevent damage in the event the pump is run dry for  
short periods of time.  
For unattended pump operation control boxes are available.  
ReferenceTable 4 for the correct control box for your pump.  
Before applying power to the pump always read the  
nameplate on the pump. The nameplate will display the  
voltage and phase required to run the pump. Applying  
the incorrect voltage to the pump can severly damage the  
pump.  
Please make sure that the correct voltage and phase are  
applied to the pump at all times.

Figure 2. Submersible Pump Components  
Figure 2 shows the location of the basic components, for  
the submersible pumps.Listed below is a brief explanation  
of each component.  
7. aC power Cable These pumps are supplied with a  
33 ft. (10 meters) AC power cable. Always check the  
cable for signs of wear. never use a defective power  
cable. Replace the cable immediately if the cable is  
worn or defective.  
1. strainer base This strainer base is made of stainless  
steel which is resistant to hardware corrosion. For  
dewatering purposes, always place the strainer base  
on a platform.  
8. power Cable Clamp Attaches power cable to pump  
to prevent movement.  
2. mechanical seal This oil-filled seal provides  
lubrication when running the pump dry. never run  
the pump dry! Running the pump dry will cause severe  
damage to the pump.  
9. impeller Impellers are constructed of chrome steel  
to minimize wear and prolong service life.  
10. mechanical seal oil plug Remove this plug to  
check and add ISO VG32 lubrication oil, Mobile DTE  
24, turbine oil 90 or equivalent to the oil chamber.This  
oil protects the mechanical seal. Oil chamber should  
be full enough to cover seal spring.  
3. electric motor These pumps use either a 230 VAC  
or 460 VAC, 3Ø, 60 Hz electric motor. Reference  
Table 1. for the electric motor for your model pump.  
Consult with a licensed electrician before connecting  
motor to a power source. Observe all city and local  
safety codes.  
11. Discharge port Connect a 6-inch hose to this port  
(NPT 6" threads).Remember to adequately support the  
discharge hose to avoid stress on the pump.  
4. nameplate Provides vital electrical pump information.  
Always read this tag before applying power to the pump.  
12. eye bolts Attach a suitable lifting device to this  
handle capable of lifting about 300 lbs. (136 kg).  
never lift the pump by its power cord! Lifting the  
pump by the power cord will cause undue stress on  
the cord and ultimately the cord will become dislodged  
from the pump.  
5. Discharge port Connect a 4-inch hose to this port  
(NPT 4" threads). Remember to adequately support  
the discharge hose to avoid stress on the pump.  
6. lifting Handle Attach a suitable lifting device to this  
handle capable of lifting about 200 lbs.(91 kg) never  
lift the pump by its power cord.

mechanical Float switch  
Design Features  
Mechanically activated float switches offer a reliable low  
current control for dewatering applications.  
Float switch housings are constructed of high-impact,  
corrosion resistant polypropylene with mechanically  
activated, snap action contacts.  
How it Works  
„ Suitable for most liquid environments.  
„ Hermetically sealed.  
The mechanical float switch control will turn on (close)  
when the float tips 45° above -horizontal, indicating a high  
level, and turns oFF (opens) when the float switch drops  
45° below horizontal. Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5.  
Maximum pumping range is 120 degrees. See Figure 3  
below.

Control box installation  
Control boX mounting  
The following procedure outlines the steps for connecting  
the pump to a control box.  
Mount the control box in an upright vertical position. Make  
sure the control box is securely fastened to a flat surface,  
that is free of dust, dirt, moisture or any elements that  
may contaminate or erode the electronic components of  
the control box.  
Danger  
Each submersible pump is designed to  
work with a control box.This control box  
contains the necessary electronics (float  
3-phase power installation (input)  
switch connections) to operate the pump.  
Remember this control box contains  
hazardous voltages. Disconnect all sources of power  
before installing or servicing.There exists the possibility  
of electrocution, electric shock or burn, which can cause  
severe bodily harm or even death!  
Each pump is either configured for 230 or 460VAC voltage  
input. Reference Table 1 for the correct input voltage for  
your pump.  
If you cannot determine what your pump's power  
requirements are, look at the vendor supplied identification  
name tag attached to the pump or please contact Multiquip's  
Service/Technical Assistance department.  
Danger  
Caution  
When installing the control box, the  
possibility exists of electrical shock,  
electrocution and possibly death! never  
have untrained personnel perform the  
installation. alWaYs have qualified  
service personnel (licensed electrician) perform the  
installation.  
Applying incorrect power (voltage phasing) to the  
submersible pump can cause severe damage to the  
pump. Please make sure that the correct voltage and  
phase are applied to the pump at all times.  
power Cord requirements  
When routing the 230/460 VAC, 60 Hz., 3-phase power  
via a power cord to the control box, alWaYs use the  
correct wire size. Please refer to Table 5 to determine the  
correct wire size. Incorrect wire size can adversely affect  
the performance of the pump and may ultimately burn out  
the pump motor.  
Warning  
Explosion or Fire Hazard exists if this pump  
is used with flammable liquids.Donot use  
this pump with flammable liquids. Donot  
install this pump in hazardous locations as  
defined by the National Electrical Code,  
ANSI/NFPA 70.

Watertank storage  
NOTICE  
If an installed pump (immersed in water) has not been in  
operation for a long period of time, check the insulation resistance  
and run the pump for 30 minutes every month.  
Insulation resistance is moisture and temperature  
sensitive. When temperature increases, insulation  
resistance decreases, and vice versa.  
If the pump cannot be run due to lack of water in the tank inspect  
the pump and turn the impeller by hand each month and prior  
to putting the pump back into service. If insulation drops below  
10 megohms, contact an authorized Multiquip service center.  
When performing this test measurement, perform the  
test using the same test parameters as used in the  
initial testing. Contact an authorized Multiquip service  
center if the measured cable insulation is 10 megohms  
or less.  
electrical insulationtesting  
Why perform electrical insulation testing?  
Electrical insulation starts to age as soon as it is made. Harsh  
environments, especially those with extreme temperature  
changes and/or chemical contamination, cause further  
deterioration of the insulation (power cord).

500 VDC INSULATION  
TEST METER  
What is Insulation ResistanceTesting  
Insulation resistance testing applies a regulated stabilized  
high voltage (Figure 19), typically 500 VDC or greater across  
a dielectric (power cord). Measuring the amount of leakage  
current flowing through the dielectric will yield a resistive  
measurement in megohms.  
Figure 19. Insulation Tester Application  
Danger  
Read and follow the manufacturer's user's  
manual prior to operating insulation tester  
(megaohm meter). This meter generates  
a test voltage of 500 volts or greater. Only  
qualified and trained personnel should  
use this equipment. The possibility exists of severe  
electrical shock, electrocution even death, when  
using insulation tester.  
Insulating MaterialTesting  
To verify the integrity of the pump's insulating material (power  
cable) it will be necessary to perform an electrical insulation test.  
Any electrical insulation must have the opposite characteristic  
as the conductor: it should resist the flow of current, keeping it  
within the conductor.  
To measure the IR (current x resistance), the use of an IR tester  
must be employed. This IR tester is a portable device that is a  
resistance meter (ohmmeter) with a built in DC generator that  
develops a high DC voltage.  
longterm storage  
1. Area must be free from excessive humidity, corrosive gases,  
vapors or vibrations which might damage the pump.  
2. Store pump in a vertical position on a pallet or stand.  
The high DC voltage from the IR tester is usually 500 VDC or  
more.This voltage, when applied causes a small current to flow  
through and over the insulation's surfaces. The tester provides  
a direct reading of IR in megohms.  
3. Coil up the cable, and seal the open end (control box  
wires) with waterproof tape or a cable cap.This will prevent  
moisture from penetrating into the motor which could cause  
severe damage to the windings.  
4. Give all unpainted surfaces a light coat of oil or grease to  
prevent corrosion.  
A high resistance reading would indicate a "good" insulation,  
meaning very little current is escaping through the insulation.  
While a relatively low resistance reading would indicate a  
poor insulation, meaning a significant amount of current  
may be leaking through and along the insulation.  
5. If new pumps are stored for more than two months, turn  
the impeller by hand every two months to prevent the  
mechanical seal faces from seizing up. Failure to do this  
may result in seal damage when the pump is started.
