yRead this manual completely before starting your installation.
yConsult local officials for any applicable codes and regulations.
yDetermine the best location for your tank and control panel.
yMinimize the use of elbows on the inlet line. If required only use 45° elbows.
yPlan your installation location carefully to insure a minimum 1:80 drop on the inlet line while staying within
the allowable inlet zone.
yDetermine where the incoming power will be supplied from and if it can handle the rated load for your pump
station.
yMount control panel in accordance with electrical codes and where alarm light can be easily seen.
(If applicable)
yObtain all necessary permits. Call your local relevant authorities before digging to locate all underground lines
and cables.
yMake sure you have the necessary equipment and supplies before starting your installation.
yDetermine the ballast requirements for your particular tank size.

• Only qualified personal should, install, operate, and repair the pump and associated components.
• Safety and Protective clothing must be worn by service personal including overalls, protective footwear, and
rubber gloves, and safety glasses.
• Do not touch or allow any sewage to come in contact with hands or mouth as sewage contains a multitude
of germs, and infectious pathagens which could cause serious illnesses.
(We recommend all operators have a tetanus injection prior to working in these pump stations)
• Do not enter the tank under any circumstances as sewage contains toxic and explosive gases which could
cause suffocation. (If the tank is to be entered by the contractor then standard confined space procedures
must be followed).
• Do not smoke or light any matches in the vicinity of the pump station to avoid the risk of explosion.
• Always make sure that the power supply to the pump station is switched off and safely isolated, using
standard isolution procedures to reduce the risk of electrical shock or hazards
• Keep hands and fingers away from pump suction and discharge openings and do not insert fingers in pump
while power is connected as this could cause serious personal injury.
• Do not leave the pump cover/lid off the pump chamber except while servicing to prevent foreign materials
entering, or the danger of children falling into tank. (We recommend that a cone is put near the tank, and
the tank is fenced off with a safety netting around tank while being serviced).
NB: PUMP AND VALVE SPECIALTIES IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR LOSSES, INJURY OR DEATH RESULTING FROM A
FAILURE TO OBSERVE THESE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS, MISUSE OF PUMPS OR EQUIPMENT.

IMPORTANT: Please read all instructions before commencing installation.
1. Excavate hole for tank. Excavation should be 100mm deeper than tank.
Approximate excavation hole size to allow:-
FASTFLO MINI 950mm deep x 1.0m diameter
FASTFLO 1000 1.8m deep x 1.5m diameter
FASTFLO 1500 2.2m deep x 1.5m diameter
FASTFLO 2000 2.7m deep x 1.5m diameter
2. Lay 100mm of sand, pea or drainage metal in base of excavation, in order for tank to be bedded on a at base,
and also shaped to suit tappered base of tank.
3. Lower pump station into excavated hole and check for level. Pump station lid should be flush with finished
ground level.
4. Tank should be backfilled as soon as possible, as follows:
For low water table areas:-
Partially backfill with a cohesive backfill and compact in 300mm layers around tank (up to sewer inlet level
only) using a mechanical plate compactor or vibrator. Ensure that tank is filled with water and kept same
level while backfilling tank.
For high water table areas:-
If bottom of tank is below maximum ground water level, then tank should be bedded down in concrete
whilst still fresh, and concrete continued up side of tank to just above second rib, or more for high water
table areas. Ensure that the tank is filled with water ahead of pouring concrete balanced and kept at the
same level while backfilling tank.
If the tank is in a trafficable area, then an additional concrete cover slab should be poured with heavy duty
lid option. (See Note 16)
Alternatively, continue concrete up sides of tank to the underside of the cover slab (inlet and electrical
outlet pipes to be done first – Refer No’s 5 – 11).
5. Cut sewer inlet hole with hole saw, in the desired position (usually between 1st and 2nd rib from top) and
insert large rubber inlet uniseal in hole from outside.
Hole sizes are as follows:- (Refer to seperate instruction page)
For 110mm uPVC = 127mm hole saw size
For 160mm uPVC = 170mm hole saw size
Lubricate inlet uniseal with o’ring lubricant or similar, and insert PVC inlet pipe (gravity drain) into tank.

6. Install 90º ramp/inspection bend (large inspection type) or 90º M&F inspection junction (supplied by others)
on inside of tank, so as to direct liquid flow downwards into the pump chamber. This also allows access for
plugging and water testing gravity drain.
Sewer drain is now ready to be laid from pump station inspection bend or junction back up to dwelling/
building.
7. Install vent from top of tank if required. Refer to separate page on Vent Requirements.
8. Cut discharge hole in tank wall with a hole saw, in desired position/direction (normally 75mm above top
rib). Insert the small rubber discharge uniseal into discharge hole on inside of tank, and lubricate with o’ring
lubricant or similar.
Hole sizes are as follows:-
For 50mm PVC pressure pipe = 76mm hole saw size
For 80mm PVC pressure pipe = 102mm hole saw size
For 100mm PVC pressure pipe = 127mm hole saw size
9. Screw vertical discharge pipe into pump outlet (if not already installed).
Note: If overall discharge height out of tank is lower than standard height, then shorten vertical discharge
pipe to suit.
Glue swept discharge bend (with valves attached) onto vertical pipe before installing pump(s), making sure
bend is facing over top of pump(s).
Note: The non-return ball valve(s) “Y” leg must always be facing upwards, as per the prefabricated
position. This must not be altered to any other position, as this will cause operational failure.
10. Install pump(s) in tank, as close to centre as possible. Pump(s) should sit on flat base of tank, so that when
valves are installed later, they are easily accessible when lid is open. Allow enough room for gravity drain
inlet bend/junction if directly opposite pump discharge position.
11. Install short PVC discharge pipe with coupling nut from inside tank. Push through the rubber uniseal
the required distance, so as to match up to pump pipework, and tighten quick connect coupling. Extend
discharge pipework beyond pump station to discharge point, in pipe material selected.
12. Hang rope(s) or chain(s) on hook(s) at top corner of tank. If hooks not mounted, position in corners adjacent
to pumps. KEEP CHAIN(S) WELL AWAY FROM PUMP FLOATS – ON OPPOSITE SIDE OF PUMP FLOATS, TO
AVOID MALFUNCTION.
13. Electrician to install 32mm/50mm PVC electrical conduit(s) and wiring between pump station and control
box/panel (mounted on building adjacent to pump station). Refer to electrical installation diagram and
instructions. Refer to Electrical Wiring Instructions for testing pump(s) and alarms.
14. Feed pump and alarm float cables through conduit(s) to control box/panel.

15. Check that pump control and alarm floats are free and clear of any obstructions.
Check that high level alarm float is not below sewer inlet drain. If so, it must be shifted to one side, as this
could cause malfunction of alarm.
Correct high level float operating position should be approx. 200mm below the invert level.
Some special electrical instructions may apply to 3-phase single or dual pump stations.
16. Complete backfilling as follows:-
OPTION 1: STANDARD PE PEDESTRIAN-RATED LID
Original Back-fill can be brought up to & flush with tank lid. Aim to slope ground away from lid (if possible)
to stop any water ponding around lid area.
OPTION 2: CAST IRON TRAFFICABLE-RATED LID
Cast Iron lid / frame needs to be set in a concrete apron (i.e. 100mm – 150mm cover slab x 300mm wide),
which is poured above the top of the P.E tank opening.
Allow for a 20 – 25mm gap to separate the cast-iron lid from the PE pump station neck, to avoid direct
traffic load bearing onto P.E tank. (Refer to drawing FFP40A).
17. Pump Station may now be commissioned as follows:-
(a) Fill tank with water up to normal pump working float level and check pump operation.
(b) Lift high level float and check audio-visual alarm operation.
(c) Check that ball isolation valve in tank is turned on.
(d) Bolt down lid with stainless steel bolts provided or padlock lids if provision available.
