A Series Voltage Change
This procedure will provide you with step by step instructions to convert the operating voltage of dual
voltage 3 phase.
Tools Needed:
5 mm Allen Wrench Wire Cutters Wire Strippers Terminal Crimp Tool Qty 3–Crimpable Wire Nuts 14 to 16 Gage
2. With pump in stable, upright position, remove the eight 5mm capscrews as indicated.
1. Remove pump from service. Disconnect power supply. Clean and decontaminate pump prior to working on it. See the pump Installation, Operation, and Maintenance Manual for detailed instructions.

3. With the capscrews removed, lift the motor cap off of the pump.

4. With motor cap removed, use a capscrew that was removed from motor cap to support motor cap as shown. Stator windings and cable leads must be visible and easy to reach. Your unit should now look like this. Gently remove all wires from around the stator windings. Take care not to damage the winding insulation. Do not use sharp tools!!
5. Separate the wire bundles as indicated, and record the wire numbers in each bundle.
If pump is wired for 208/230V, it will have 4 wire bundles. If pump is wired for 460V, it will have 6 wire bundles.
Bundle 1 ___ ___ ___
Bundle 2 ___ ___ ___
Bundle 3 ___ ___ ___
Bundle 4 ___ ___ ___
Bundle 5 ___ ___ ___
Bundle 6 ___ ___ ___
Note: If the power cable is 4 lead, the wires are color coded. If the power cable is 7 lead, each individual wire will have a number on cable sheath.
6. To convert from 230V to 460V operation, you will need to separate the wire bundles, one at a time, and reconnect as indicated below.

7. To perform the reconnection, locate the wire bundle with wires 1, 7, and a power lead. Cut wire number 7 from the bundle, freeing individual wires. Strip wire sheathing back ¼ in preparation for reconnection.
8. Repeat procedure for wire bundle 2, 8, and power
9. Repeat procedure for wire bundle 3, 9, and power. Leave wire number 9 loose for now.
Now you should have three new bundles 2 and power 3 and power 1 and power along with 3 separate wires (#7,#8,#9), and one bundle of 3 wires (#4,#5,#6).
10. Now, you will need to separate the wire bundle numbers 4, 5, 6, and pair each wire with the loose wires numbers 7, 8, 9 as indicated. Using the last three wire connectors:
Join wire #4 to wire #7 Join wire #5 to wire #8 Join wire #6 to wire #9
11. At this point, you should have 6 separate wire bundles, each with 2 wires. Wires should be paired as follows: 4 to 7, 5 to 8, 6 to 9, number 1 to power, number 2 to power and number 3 to power. See photo
Before proceeding, you should check the resistance between all three cable leads is the same. Resistance value is different for the various size motors, so please consult wiring handbook for specific resistance values, if required.

12. Starting with bundles 4-7, 5-8, 6-9, gently tuck these 3 wire bundles behind the windings on one side of stator. Then slide insulation wrap back over wires then tuck the remaining 3 bundles behind the windings on the other side. Take care that all wires are tucked in between stator winding and housing. Also check that white phase paper is in proper position, and not extending above the stator housing.
13. Verify that the large o ring is still in its proper position on the pump housing. Gently place motor cap back onto pump.
14. With motor cap back in position, then align bolt holes and replace capscrews. Tighten capscrews to 12 ft/lbs.
15. Pump should now be ready for installation and operation at 460V. Be sure to record that voltage has been changed in pump service manual.
The pump is now ready for reassembly
