doweled to ensure proper alignment of the pump and shaft whenever the pipe is
disassembled and reassembled in the field.
K.
Liquid-Level Control: Simplex unit shall have a float mechanism to provide automatic
operation of the pump unit when the liquid in the sump rises to a predetermined level. A
means of adjustment, such as float-rod stops, shall be provided to allow for variation in the
start and stop level-control points. Float and stem shall be AISI Type 304 or 316 corrosionresistant steel, and all other parts of the fluid-level-sensing mechanism below the coverplate

L.
Liquid-Level Control: Duplex pump unit shall be furnished with the electrical and
mechanical devices required to provide automatic operation of the pump unit when the
liquid in the sump rises to a predetermined level. Controls shall automatically transfer the
operating cycle from one pump to the other and shall operate both pumps simultaneously
whenever the inflow to the sump exceeds the capacity of the operating pump. A means of
adjustment such as float-rod stops shall be provided to allow for variations in the start and
stop level-control points. Float and rod shall be AISI Type 304 or 316 corrosion-resistant
steel, and all other parts of the fluid-level sensing mechanism below the cover shall be
