SAFETY INFORMATION

DANGER:

1. Always disconnect power source before performing any

work on or near the motor or its connected load. If the power disconnect point is out-of-sight, lock it in the open position and tag it to prevent unexpected application of power. Failure to do so could result in fatal electrical shock.

2. Do not handle the pump with wet hands or when standing in water as fatal electrical shock could occur. Disconnect main power before handling unit for ANY REASON!

3. RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. These pumps have not been investigated for use in swimming pool areas.

WARNING:

1. Follow all local electrical and safety codes, as well

as the National Electrical Code (NEC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA).

2. Replace damaged or worn wiring cord immediately.

3. Do not kink power cable and never allow the cable

to come in contact with oil, grease, hot surfaces, or chemicals.

4. Wire motor to correct supply voltage - see motor nameplate and wiring diagrams and check voltage of power supply.

5. Unit must be securely and adequately electrically grounded. This can be accomplished by wiring the unit to a ground metal-clad raceway system or by using a separate ground wire connected to the bare metal of the motor frame or other suitable means.

6. This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

7. Hazardous Pressure! Install pressure relief valve in discharge pipe. Release all pressure on system before working on any component.

8. Do not use to pump ammable or explosive uids

such as gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, etc. Do not use in

ammable and/or explosive atmospheres.

CAUTION:

1. Protect the power cable from coming in contact with

sharp objects.

2. Be careful when touching the exterior of an operating motor - It may be hot enough to be painful or cause injury.

3. Make certain that the power source conforms to the requirements of your equipment.

4. Do not run pump dry.

5. Pump and plumbing must be full of water before startup.

6. Do not pump water which contains sand, mud, silt, or

debris

NOTE: Pumps with the “UL” Mark and pumps with the

“US” mark are tested to UL Standard UL778.CSA certied pumps are certied to CSA Standard C22.2 No. 108. (CUS)

applications:

1. Shallow wells (0 - 25 ft. lift) where ejector bolts to pump (Fig. 1)

2. Deep wells where well ID is 4” or more and a two pipe

GENERAL PUMP INFORMATION

Ventilation

Ventilation and drainage must be provided to prevent damage to the motor from heat and moisture.

Freezing

The pump and all piping must be protected from freezing. If freezing weather is forecast, drain pump or remove completely from the system.

Water Supply

The water source must be able to supply enough water to satisfy the capacity of the pump and water needs.

Suction Lift

Suction lift is the vertical distance from the lowest level of the water to the pump intake. See performance charts on page 2 and 3 to determine how far your pump can lift water.

Horizontal Distance

The horizontal distance is the horizontal measurement between the pump suction and the water source. This distance may affect the ability of the pump to operate. If it

is over 100 feet, call the manufacturer for assistance at 1-800-742-5044.

Pipe And Fittings

Use galvanized steel or NSF PW Schedule 40 PVC pipe and ttings. This material is designed for water pressure

and will seal against air and water under pressure. Do Not

Use: DWV ttings, as these are designed for drains without pressure and will not seal properly. (Fig. 1, 2 & 3)

Wire Size:

The wire size is determined by the distance from the power source to the pump motor, and the horsepower rating of the motor. See the wire chart for proper wire size.

PREPARATION

Before beginning installation of product, make sure all parts are present. If any part is missing or damaged, do not attempt to assemble the product. Contact customer service for replacement parts.

Estimated Installation Time: 2 hours.

Tools required

Pipe wrenches (2) Wire strippers Needle-nose pliers Phillips screwdriver

NOTE: For a successful installation, take time to study your application for the correct pipe size and appropriate ttings. The illustrations in these instructions will assist you with required and optional ttings. Sch. 40 PVC plastic pipe and ttings were used in these instructions.

INSTALLING PIPING IN WELL

Shallow Well Application

- Where Suction Lift Is Less Than 25 Feet On single pipe installations (Fig. 1) attach foot valve to the

end of the suction pipe and set in the well, making certain the valve is below the water level. The foot valve should

at least ve (5) feet from the bottom of the well to prevent

sand from being drawn into the system.

INSTALLING PIPING IN WELL

3/4 or 1 in.

When connecting a drive point (Fig. 2) a check valve must be used in the suction line in place of a foot valve. For easy priming connect the check valve as close to the well as possible.

All piping from the well to the pump should slope slightly upward with no sagging. Support suction pipe between water source and pump. Unions in the suction line near the pump and well will aid in servicing. Be sure to leave enough room so that wrenches can be used easily.

Deep Well (Double Pipe System)

Where water level is greater than 25 feet and inside diameter of well is four (4) inches or larger (Fig. 1).

1. Attach the foot valve to the ejector using a galvanized steel or plastic nipple. Add enough 1 in. pressure pipe and 1-1/4 in suction pipe to submerge ejector 10 to 15’

below pumping water level, making certain foot valve is

at least ve (5) feet from bottom of well. If pressure pipe

and suction pipe of the same diameter are used, be sure to identify them clearly so that they will be connected to the proper tappings of the pump.

If a known well leak exists, replace nipple with 21 feet

of 1” tail pipe between the ejector and the foot valve.

This will provide a continuous source of water for the pumping system.

2. Check pipe and foot valve for leaks by lling pipes with

water. A continuous loss of water indicates a leak in the piping, foot valve or unions, and must be corrected.

3. If no leaks are found, proceed to WELL TO PUMP

CONNECTION (SUCTION PIPE). For long offset distances, see Table B for proper pipe size.

4. All piping from the well to the pump should slope slightly upward with no sagging. Support suction pipe between water source and pump. Unions in the suction line near the pump and well will aid in servicing. Be sure to leave enough room so that wrenches can be used easily.

INSTALLING PIPING IN WELL

Deep Well (Single Pipe System)

Application - Where pumping water level is greater than 25 feet and inside diameter of well is 2, 2-1/2 or 3 inches. (Fig

1) On single pipe deep well installations, clean, sound well

casing must be used to give a tight seal. NOTE: This application requires a well adapter for the top

of the well. NOTE: Pre-soak packer leathers for approximately two

hours before installation.

1. Attach foot valve directly to bottom of ejector assembly. Ejector must be submerged 10 to 15 feet below

pumping water level and the foot valve must be at least

ve (5) feet from bottom of well.

2. Attach foot valve and packer ejector to suction pipe (presoak packer leathers for approximately two (2) hours). Push the assembly down the well. Some force may be required to push the ejector down the casing.

3. As each section is lowered, check for leaks by pouring water into the suction pipe.

4. Attach well adapter to suction pipe, lower over casing

top and tighten adapter ange.

5. If no leaks are found, proceed to WELL TO PUMP

CONNECTION (SUCTION PIPE) using piping of

the same diameter as the suction pipe (1-1/4”) and pressure pipe (1”) tappings of the pump. For long offset

distances, see Table B for the proper pipe size.

6. Unions in suction and discharge piping near pump

and well will aid in servicing. Be sure to leave enough surrounding room so that wrenches can be used easily.
