1.2 Pool Pump Suction Entrapment Prevention Guidelines
WARNING
SUCTION HAZARD. Can cause serious injury or death. Do not use this pump
for wading; shallow pools or spas containing bottom drains, unless pump is
connected to at least two functioning suction outlets.
WARNING
Pump suction is hazardous and can trap and drown or disembowel bathers. Do not use or operate
swimming pools, spa, or hot tubs if a suction outlet cover is missing, broken, or loose. The following
guidelines provide information for pump installation that minimizes risk of injury to users of pools, spas,
and hot tubs:
Entrapment Protection - The pump suction system must provide protection against the hazards of suction
entrapment.
Suction Outlet Covers - All suction outlets must have correctly installed, screw-fastened covers in place.
All suction outlet (drain) covers must be maintained. Drain covers must be listed/certified to ANSI/ASME
A112.19.8. They must be replaced if cracked, broken, or missing.
Number of Suction Outlets Per Pump - Provide at least two hydraulically balanced main drains, with covers,
as suction outlets for each circulating pump suction line. The centers of the main drains (suction outlets)
on any one suction line must be at least three feet apart, center to center. (see figure 1 on page 7)
The system must be built to include at least two suction outlets (drains) connected to the pump whenever
the pump is running. However, if two main drains run into a single suction line, the single suction line
may be equipped with a valve which will shut off both main drains from the pump. The system shall be
constructed such that it shall not allow for separate or independent shutoff or isolation of each drain. (see
figure 1 on page 7)
More than one pump can be connected to a single suction line as long as the requirements above are met.
Water Velocity - The maximum water velocity through the suction fitting or cover for any suction outlet
must be 1.5 feet per second unless the outlet complies with the latest version of ANSI/ASME A112.19.8,
the standard for Suction Fittings For Use in Swimming and Wading Pools, Spas, Hot Tubs, and Whirlpool
Bathtub Applications. In any case, do not exceed the suction fitting’s maximum designed flow rate.
If 100% of the pump’s flow comes from the main drain system, the maximum water velocity in the pump
suction hydraulic system must be six feet per second or less even if one main drain (suction outlet) is
completely blocked. The flow through the remaining main drain(s) must comply with the latest ANSI/ASME
A112.19.8, the standard for Suction Fittings For Use in Swimming and Wading Pools, Spas, Hot Tubs, and
Whirlpool Bathtub Applications.
Test ing a nd Certifi cati on - S uction outl et cover s must have b een test ed by a natio nally re cognized te sting
laboratory and found to comply with the latest ANSI/ASME A112.19.8, the standard for Suction Fittings For
Use in Swimming and Wading Pools, Spas, Hot Tubs, and Whirlpool Bathtub Applications.
Fittings - Fittings restrict flow; for best efficiency use fewest possible fittings (but at least two suction
outlets).
Avoid fittings which could cause an air trap.
Pool cleaner suction fittings must conform to applicable International Association of Plumbing and
Mechanical Officials (IAPMO) standards.

Section 2. General Description
2.1 Introduction
This manual contains information for the proper
installation, operation and maintenance of Jandy
®
Stealth Series Pumps. Procedures in this manual must
be followed exactly. To obtain additional copies of
this manual contact us at 707-776-8200, ext. 237. For
address information, see back cover.
2.2 Description
®
Jandy
Stealth Series Pumps are desig ned to meet the
needs of today's more hydraulically demanding pool
equipment. The pump housing, backplate, diffuser,
hair and lint pot (pump basket), and impeller are
all made from high quality thermoplastic materials.
These materials were chosen for their strength and
corrosion resistance.
The pump is driven by an electric motor directly
attached to the pump impeller. As the electric motor
turns it causes the impeller to turn, which forces water
to flow through the pump. The water flows through
the pump inlet and then into the filter basket. The
basket assembly pre-strains/traps large particles. The
water flow then enters the center of the pump housing,
goes through the impeller into the diffuser, and then
goes out the pump discharge port.
Section 3. Installation Information
3.1.2 Pump Location
1. It is recommended to install the pump within one
(1) foot above the water level. The pump should
not be elevated more than a few feet above
the water level of the pool. A check valve is
recommended on the suction line to the pump.
WARNING
Some Safety Vacuum Release Systems (SVRS
devices) are not compatible with installation of
check valves. If the pool has a SVRS device, be
sure to confirm that that it will continue to safely
operate when any check valves are installed.
NOTE Better self-priming will be achieved if the pump is
installed as close as possible to the water level of
the pool.
2. If the pump is located below water level, isolation
valves must be installed on both the suction and
return lines to prevent back flow of pool water
during any routine or required servicing.
3. The pump and other circulation equipment must
be located more than five (5) feet from the water.
Choose a location that will minimize turns in the
piping.
NOTE In Canada, the pump must be located a minimum
of 3 meters (approximately 10 feet) from the water
(CSA C22.1).
4. The pump must be placed on a solid foundation
that will not vibrate. To further reduce the
possibility of vibration noise, bolt the pump to
the foundation, or place on a rubber mat.
3.1 Plumbing
3.1.1 Preparation Information
1. Upon receipt of the pump, check the carton for
damage. Open the carton and check the pump
for concealed damage such as cracks, dents or a
bent base. If damage is found, contact the shipper
or distributor where the pump was purchased.
2. Inspect contents of carton and verify all parts are
included. See Section 7.1, Replacement Parts
List.
NOTE It is recommended to bolt the pump directly to the
foundation.
5. The pump foundation must have adequate
drainage to prevent the motor from getting wet.
Protect the pump from the rain and sun.
6. Proper ventilation is required for the pump
to operate normally. All motors generate heat
that must be removed by providing proper
ventilation.
7. Provide access for future service by leaving a
clear area around the pump. Allow plenty of
space above the pump to remove the lid and
basket for cleaning.
8. If the equipment is under cover, provide adequate
lighting.
Page 9
3.1.3 Pipe Sizing
NOTE All HP ratings given in this section apply to Full-
rated pumps. For help with max-rated pumps,
contact Jandy Customer service.
3.1.3.1 Suction Pipe
When the pump is located up to 50 feet from the
pool, the recommended minimum pipe size for the
suction side of the pump is 2" for ¾ to 1½ HP*.
For 2 HP* pumps recommended pipe size is 2½".
For 3 HP* pumps, recommended pipe size is 3".
* HP refers to full rated pumps
3.1.3.2 Discharge Pipe
When the pump is located up to 50 feet from the
pool, the recommended minimum pipe size for the
discharge side of the pump is 2" for ¾ to 1½ HP*.
For 2 HP* pumps recommended pipe size is 2½".
For 3 HP* pumps, recommended pipe size is 3".
* HP refers to full rated pumps
NOTE All pipe sizes are able to withstand the pressures
the pump will deliver, but not the flow. If the pipe
is too small for the pump, or it is elevated above
water, the maximum gallons per minute (GPM)
may not be delivered and the pump will make
noise and shorten pump life. (cavitate)
3.1.3.3 Installation Recommendations
simplifies installation, service, and eliminates
the possibility of leaks at threaded adapters.
4. The Stealth Pump must be connected to at least
two (2) hydraulically balanced main drains for
each pool pump suction line. Each drain must be
provided with covers that are listed or certified to
ANSI/ASME A112.19.8. The suction fittings of
the main drains must be at least three feet apart
or at different planes. The suction fittings can be
a drain and skimmer, two drains, two skimmers,
or a skimmer with an equalizer line installed.
Check the local codes for proper installation.
NOTE To prevent entrapment, the system must be built
so that it cannot operate with the pump drawing
water from only one main drain. At least two main
drains must be connected to the pump when it is
in operation. However, if two main drains run into
a single suction line, the single suction line may
be equipped with a valve which will shutoff both
main drains from the pump.
5. The piping must be well supported and not
forced together where constant stress will be
experienced.
6. Always use properly sized valves. Jandy
®
Diverter Valves and Jandy
Ball Valves typically
®
have the best flow capabilities.
1. If the pump is located below water level,
isolation valves must be installed on both sides
of the pump to prevent back flow of pool water
during any routine or required servicing.
2. To help prevent difficulty in priming, install the
suction pipe without high points (above inlet of
pump - inverted "U's" in plumbing), which can
trap air. For installations of equipment up to 100
feet from the water, refer to the pipe sizing chart,
Table 1. For installations of equipment more than
100 feet from the water, the recommended pipe
must be increased to the next size.

7. Use the fewest fittings possible. Every fitting
added has the effect of moving the equipment
farther away from the water.
NOTE If more than ten (10) suction fittings are needed,
the pipe size must be increased.
8. Every new installation must be pressure tested
according to local codes.
WARNING
Do not pressure test above 35 PSI. Pressure
testing must be done by a trained pool professional.
Circulation equipment that is not tested properly
will fail, which could result in severe injury or
property damage.
WARNING
Trapped air in system can cause pump lid to be
blown off which can result in death, serious injury,
or property damage. Be sure all air is properly
out of system before operating. DO NOT USE
COMPRESSED AIR TO LEAK OR PRESSURE
TEST.

3.2 Electrical Installation
3.2.1 Voltage Checks
The correct voltage, as specified on the pump data
plate, is necessary for proper performance and long
motor life. Incorrect voltage will decrease the pump's
ability to perform and could cause overheating, reduce
the motor life, and result in higher electric bills.
It is the responsibility of the electrical installer to
provide data plate operating voltage to the pump by
ensuring proper circuit sizes and wire sizes for this
specific application.
CAUTION
Failure to provide data plate voltage (within 10%)
during operation will cause the motor to overheat
and void the warranty.
3.2.2 Bonding and Grounding
1. The motor frame must be bonded to a reliable
grounding point using a solid copper conductor,
No. 8 AWG or larger. In Canada, No. 6 AWG or
larger must be used.
2. Bond the motor using the provided external
lug.
WARNING
Always disconnect the power source before
working on a motor or its connected load.
WARNING
Ensure that the control switch or time clock is
installed in an accessible location so that in the
event of an equipment failure or a loose plumbing
fitting the equipment can be turned off. This
location must not be in the sa me area o f the poo l
pump, filter, and other equipment.
CAUTION
The pump must be permanently connected to a
dedicated electrical circuit. No other equipment,
lights, appliances or outlets may be connected
to the pump circuit.
3.2.3 Electrical Wiring
1. The pump motor must be securely and adequately
grounded using the green screw provided.
Ground before attempting to connect to an
electrical power supply. Do not ground to a gas
supply line.
2. Wire size must be adequate to minimize voltage
drop during the start- up and operation of the
pump. See Table 2 for suggested wire sizes.
3. Insulate all connections carefully to prevent
grounding or short-circuits. Sharp edges on
terminals require extra protection. Tape wire
nuts to prevent loosening. For safety, and to
prevent entry of contaminants, reinstall all
conduit and terminal box covers. Do not force
connections into the conduit box.

3.3 Pressure Testing
WARNING
When pressure testing a system with water, air is often
trapped in the system during the filling process. This
air will compress when the system is pressurized.
Should the system fail, this trapped air can propel
debris at high speed and cause injury. Every effort to
remove trapped air must be taken, including opening
the bleed valve on the filter and loosening the pump
basket lid while filling the pump.
WARNING
When pressure testing the system with water, it is
very important to make sure that the pump basket lid
is completely secure.
1. Fill system with water using care to eliminate
trapped air.
2. Pressurize the system with water to no more than
35 PSI.
3. Close valve to trap pressurized water in
system.
4. Observed system for leaks and/or pressure
decay.
Section 4. Operation
4.1 Start-up
1. Release all pressure from the system and open
the filter pressure release valve.
2. If the pump is located below the water level of
the pool, opening the filter pressure release valve
will prime the pump with water.
3. If the pump is located above the water level of
the pool, remove the lid and fill the basket with
water before starting the pump.
4. Prior to replacing the lid, check for debris around
the lid o-ring seat. Debris around the lid o-ring
seat will cause air to leak into the system, and
make it difficult to prime the pump.
5. Hand-tighten the lid to make an air tight seal.
Do not use any tools to tighten the lid, handtighten only. Make sure all valves are open and
the unions are tight.
6. Restore power to the pump, the turn on the
pump.
7. Once all the air has left the filter, close the
pressure release valve.
8. The pump should prime. The time it takes to
prime will depend on the elevation and length
of pipe used on the suction supply pipe. See
Section 3.1.3.3, Installation Recommendations
for proper elevation and pipe size.
9. If the pump does not prime and all the instructions
to this point have been followed, check for a
suction leak and then repeat Steps 2 through 7.
CAUTION
Never run the pump without water. Running the pump
"dry" for any length of time can cause severe damage
to both the pump and motor and void the warranty.
If this is a new pool installation, make sure all piping
is clear of construction debris and has been properly
pressure tested. The filter should be checked for
proper installation, verifying all connections and
clamps are secure according to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
WARNING
To avoid risk of damage or injury, verify that all power
is turned off before starting this procedure.
Page 12
Section 5. Service and Maintenance
5.1 Routine Maintenance
The pump will collect any large debris present in
the water at the pump basket. As debris accumulates
it will begin to block the flow of water through the
pump, and must be removed. The cleaner the basket
is kept, the more effective and efficient the pump will
perform. The pump lid is clear for easy inspection
between cleaning.
1. To clean the basket, turn off the power to the
pump. If the pump is located below the water
level, close the isolation valves on the suction and
discharge sides of the pump to prevent backflow
of water. Turn the lid counter-clockwise until it
comes off. You may use a tool for leverage to
remove the lid, but never to tighten the lid.
CAUTION
A misaligned basket will cause the lid to be
improperly seated, allowing an air leak which could
result in pump damage.
9. Turn on the power to the pump. Once all the
air has been evacuated from the filter, close the
pressure release valve.
5.2 Winterizing the Pump
CAUTION
The pump must be protected when freezing
temperatures are expected. Allowing the pump
to freeze will cause severe damage and void the
warranty.
CAUTION
Do not use antifreeze solutions in the pool,
spa, or hot tub systems! Antifreeze is highly
toxic and may damage the circulation system.
The only exception to this is Propylene Glycol. For
more information see your local pool/spa supply
store or contact a qualified swimming pool service
company.
1. Drain all water from the pump, system
equipment, and piping.
2. Lift the basket out of the pump.
3. Dispose of the debris and thoroughly clean the
basket, making sure all the holes are open. Using
a garden hose, spray the basket from the outside
to help clear the holes. Use your hands to remove
any remaining debris.
4. Replace the basket in the pump by aligning
the opening with the suction pipe. If aligned
properly, the basket will drop easily into place.
Do not force into place.
5. Prior to replacing the lid, check for debris around
the lid o-ring seat, as this will cause air leaks into
the system. Clean the lid o-ring and place on the
lid.
6. Hand-tighten the lid to make an air tight seal. Do
not use any tools to tighten the lid, hand-tighten
only.
7. Verify that all valves have been returned to the
proper position for normal operation.
8. Open the pressure release valve on the filter, and
make sure it is clean and ready for operation.
2. Remove the two drain plugs. Store the drain
plugs in a safe location and reinstall them when
the cold weather season is over. Do not lose the
o-rings.
4. Keep the motor covered and dry.
NOTE Covering the pump with plastic will create
condensation and this moisture will damage the
pump. The best way to protect your pump is to
have a qualified service technician or electrician
properly disconnect the electrical wiring at
the switch or junction box. Once the power is
removed, the two unions can be loosened and the
pump stored indoors. For safety, and to prevent
entry of contaminants, reinstall all conduit and
terminal box covers.
5. When the system is reopened for operation, make
sure all piping, valves, wiring, and equipment
are in accordance with the manufacturer's
recommendations. Pay close attention to the
filter and electrical connections.
6. The pump must be primed prior to starting; refer
to Section 4.1, Start-up.

Section 6. Troubleshooting and Repair
Jandy® strongly recommends that you call a qualified service technician to perform any repairs on the filter/
pump system. To locate a qualified technician, check your local yellow pages or visit www.jandy.com and
click on "Product Support."
6.1 Troubleshooting
Symptom Possible Problem/Solution
The cleaning/circulating system is
not operating correctly.
Bubbles present in the pump
basket.
Air leaks are still present. Check the suction side piping union. While the pump is running, try to tighten the union. If this
There is no air in the system, but
the pressure is still low.
Verify that skimmer baskets, pump basket and other screens are clean. Clean as
necessary.
Check filter and clean as necessary.
Check valve positions. Adjust as necessary.
NOTE Multiple pieces of equipment operating at one time (for example, waterfalls, spa jets,
and surface returns) will affect the cleaning system from working properly.
Check the cleaning system manual to ensure that the system is adjusted according to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
Air in system. Check the pool or spa water level to ensure it is at the proper level and that air
is not being drawn into the suction piping. If the water is at normal level, turn off the pump.
Remove the lid and check for debris around the lid o-ring seat, as this will cause air leaks
into the system. Clean the lid o-ring and place on the lid. Hand-tighten the lid to make an air
tight seal. Do not use any tools to tighten the lid. Turn the pump back on.
does not stop the air leak, turn off the pump. Loosen both unions and slide the pump out of
the way. Remove, clean and re-install both union o-rings.
Reposition the pump next to the piping and secure the union nuts to the pump. With clean
union o-rings, hand-tightening of the unions should create a seal. If the unions still do not
seal, gently tighten with a large pair of tongue-and-groove pliers.
Do not over-tighten.
It is possible that debris is caught in the pump impeller. The pump impeller moves the water,
and the vanes in the impeller can become blocked with debris. See Section 6.2, Service
Technician Maintenance, 6.2.1 "Blocked Impeller" for more information.
There is no debris blocking the
impeller and the pressure is still
low.
The pump is leaking water between
the motor and pump body.
The pump gets hot and shuts off
periodically.
The pump impeller and diffuser are showing signs of normal wear. Have a qualified service
technician check the impeller and diffuser and replace as necessary.
If the pump is part of a relatively new installation, it could be an electrical problem. Contact a
qualified service technician. Have the technician check for loose electrical connections and
check the voltage at the pump motor while it is in operation. The voltage must be within 10%
of the motor's data plate rating. If the voltage is not within 10%, contact a qualified electrician
and/or the local power service provider.
Pump seal is leaking air. Have a qualified service technician replace the seal.
This is caused by a damaged or failed mechanical seal. Replace the seal. See Section 6.2,
Service Technician Maintenance, 6.2.4 "Mechanical Seal Replacement".
Ensure that there is adequate room around the motor to circulate air and keep the motor
cool. Have a qualified electrician check for loose connections and check the voltage at the
pump motor while it is in operation. The voltage must be within 10% of the motor's data plate
rating. If the voltage is not within 10%, contact a qualified electrician and/or the local power
service provider.

2. Replace the motor shaft cover by inserting the
cover tabs into the slots and rotating the cover
90º clockwise.
3. Replace the diffuser over impeller using care to
insert alignment pins into the correct holes. The
molded-in arrow must point toward the handle
of the backplate.
4. Replace the two small Phillips head screws.
Tighten the screws to draw the diffuser against
the motor backplate.
5. Make sure the o-ring, o-ring groove, and o-ring
seal area are clean and free of debris, which
could cause a leak. If grease is used to retain
the o-ring, it must be silicone based. Do not use
petroleum-based grease, which will destroy the
o-ring.
6. Slide the diffuser into the mating hole in the
pump body. While supporting the motor, start
two screws on opposite sides. (This will hold
the motor in position while you start the other
six (6) screws).
7. Tighten the screws lightly in a crossing “X”
pattern using a 9/16" wrench starting with the
inner (middle) four (4) then the outer (top and
bottom) four (4) to draw the backplate to the
body in a even manner. Once all the screws
are snug torque in the same order to 18 footpounds.
8. If the pump is located above water level of the
pool, remove the lid and fill the basket with
water before starting the pump.

the lid o-ring seat, as this will cause air leaks into
the system.
9. Hand-tighten the lid to make an air tight seal.
Do not use any tools to tighten the lid.
10. Open the pressure release valve on the filter, and
make sure it is clean and ready for operation.
11. Switch on the circuit breaker to the pump
motor.
12. Turn on the pump and check the system for
normal operation.
