IMPORTANT!
Pressure transducer handling:
• The pressure transducer is to be kept in a moisture free environment until it can be
installed and pulled directly to the control panel.
• Please do not splice the cable and/or install in junction box! If a longer cable is needed,
contact us at 775‐440‐2025.
• A stilling well may be used; consult Jensen Pump Stations before installing the stilling well
pipe.

STEPS FOR FIGURE 13
1. Slide the Mega Lugs and the Joint Sleeves onto the plain ends of the pipes coming out
of the valve vault.
2. Once the pipes from the wet well are placed (see Page 9), center the sleeves between
the connection and tighten the bolts.

Installation Instructions Page 10
STEPS FOR PART LIST 4 (from Page 7)
1. In the wet well, install boots into core holes for force main discharge.
2. Install horizontal force main pipe (flange X plain end) through boots.
3. Install vertical force main pipe (can be flange X flange and/or flange X plain end
depending on the total well depth).
4. Bolt flanged 90 elbow to RFCA.
5. Slide RFCA onto plain end of vertical force main pipe. Leave loose.
6. Bolt flanged 90 elbow to horizontal force main pipe.
7. Refer to installation instructions provided with RFCA to tighten.
8. Remove the upper guide rail brackets in order to install the guide rails in the base elbow
mounting holes (see Fig. 9, page 5), then replace them back on the hatch nut rail.
9. Refer to Fig. 18 on p. 10 for installation of intermediate guide rail brackets for deep wells.

*Note: Not all stations require intermediate brackets. The following
instructions are specifically for stations that are provided with this hardware.
Figure 18: Intermediate guide rail bracket installation illustration.
STEPS FOR FIGURE 18
1. With the guide rail pipe provided, measure out the sections. Guide rails are provided in
20’ sticks, and quantity depends on the total depth. The guide rails may need to be field
cut due to exact well depth.
a) For example: If the well is 15’ deep, place the intermediate bracket no more than
10’ from the floor. This allows for two ~10’ sections and two ~5’ sections for each
pump.
2. Loosely attach the U‐bolt to the bracket and slide the bracket down the discharge pipe to
where the first section of guide rail pipe ends. If flanges do not allow sliding the bracket
down the discharge line, remove the U‐bolt and reconnect it where the first section of
the guide rail pipe ends.
3. Connect the next section of guide rail pipe directly on top of the intermediate bracket
and tighten the U‐bolt nuts.

*Note: Not all stations require pipe bracing. The
following instructions are specifically for stations
that are provided with this hardware.
Figure 19: Typical pipe bracket by Placer Waterworks Inc.
Figure 20: Shown above is an example of the pipe bracket installation, with a close up of the wedge anchor placement.
STEPS FOR FIGURE 20
1. Loosely install the U‐bolts on the discharge pipes and extend the bracket
tubing on each side to reach the inner walls of the well.
2. Drill hole for wedge anchors with Roto‐Hammer.
a) WARNING: Take care to not drill all the way through the wall.
3. Install wedge anchors.
4. Place bracket angles on each side.
5. Tighten wedge anchor hex heads, tighten U‐bolt hex heads.

base elbows.
a) Lifting chain with shackles are
supplied with the pump
station materials.
2. The weight of the pumps creates a
water tight seal to the base elbow.
a) There is a gasket between the
guide claw and base elbow.
3. THERE IS NO BOLTING REQUIRED to
connect pumps to the base elbows.
Note: The hoist shown on this page is not
always included. Use the proper lifting
equipment to lower the pumps into the
well and to raise the pumps out of the
well.

Figure 23: The above illustration is an example of electrical cable management.
ELECTRICAL CABLE MANAGEMENT NOTES
• It is essential to utilize proper cord separation techniques when hanging electrical
cables.
• The electrical contractor is responsible for conduit installation. Jensen Pump Stations
recommends 2” minimum conduit for both high and low voltage.
• Pumps typically have two cables exiting the casing. Refer to the installation
instructions provided by the pump manufacturer to identify the low voltage and high
voltage cables (typically, the high voltage cables have a larger diameter).
• All low voltage and high voltage cords MUST be ran in separate conduits to the control
panel.
• If low voltage and high voltage cables are placed in the same conduit, a current
can be induced in the low voltage cables and create false seal fail alarms.
See the following page for continued information.

CONTROL PANEL INSTALLATION NOTES
• The location and installation of the control panel is the responsibility of the installing
contractor or electrical contractor.
• Jensen Pump Stations recommends that the panel is mounted as close to the wet well
as possible to avoid voltage loss and make start up and continued maintenance more
convenient.
• The panel enclosure may be mounted on a nearby wall or within a nearby structure.
• Please pull all cables to the control panel. If the control panel is too far to use factory
connections, contact JPS (775‐440‐2025) for longer cables. If a junction box is
ABSOLUTELY necessary, take note of Pressure Transducer Handling instructions on
page 4. It is crucial that the junction box is completely watertight.
• See Appendix A for junction box installation recommendations.
• Leave all excess cable coiled within the control panel. A JPS pump technician will make
the electrical connections at time of start‐up/commissioning.
