We congratulate you on your choice of the Advance Centrifugal Pump! It has been carefully designed using the advantages of today’s technology and carefully
constructed to give you the dependability of yesterday. To insure proper performance, we urge you to carefully follow the instructions in this manual. If you have
any questions, call your nearest distributor or MDM for assistance.
INSTALLATION
Please read carefully! When properly installed the Advance Pump will provide dependable trouble-free service.
1. Locate the pump as near the uid source as possible. A ooded suction situation is preferred.
2. Mount motor base to a secure, immobile foundation.
3. Use only plastic ttings on both the intake and discharge ports. Seal pipe connections with Teon™ paste. These ttings should be self-supported and in neutral
alignment with each port. (i.e. Fittings must not be forced into alignment which may cause premature line failure or damage to the pump volute.)
4. Never restrict the intake. Keep both input and discharge lines as free of elbows and valves as possible. Always use pipe of adequate diameter. This will reduce
friction losses and maximize output.
5. The Advance Pump is not self-priming! It must not be run dry! We recommend a ooded suction installation. Please read carefully! When properly installed, the
Advance Pump will provide dependable, trouble-free service.
6. For additional plumbing tips, review MDM’s website: www.mdminc.com for pond plumbing and pump installation hints.
WARNING: DO NOT RUN DRY!
WARNING: ALWAYS SHUT OFF ELECTRICAL POWER BEFORE INSTALLATION AND / OR SERVICING THIS PUMP! ALL ELECTRICAL WIRING SHOULD MEET
STATE AND LOCAL ORDINANCES. IMPROPER WIRING MAY NOT ONLY BE A SAFETY HAZARD BUT MAY PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE MOTOR AND/OR
PUMP! 230V 50 HZ MOTORS AVAILABLE - CONTACT YOUR SUPPLIER FOR INFORMATION.

1. Check that supply voltages match the motor’s requirements.
2. Check motor wiring and connect, according to instructions on motor, to match supply voltage.
3. For 3 phase motors, verify phase rotation with rotation meter. Incorrect rotation can cause serious damage to pump and/or motor. MDM does not recommend
checking rotation by quickly switching power on and off because serious damage can occur.
4. Power cord should be protected by conduit or by cable and be of proper gauge. It should be no longer than necessary.
5. Power should be drawn directly from a box with circuit breaker protection or with a fused disconnect switch.

PUMP END ASSEMBLY
1. Electrically, connect the motor so that the impeller will rotate CCW when facing the pump with the motor toward the rear. Warning: Incorrect
rotation will damage the pump and void the warranty. For 3 phase power, electrically check rotation of impeller with volute disassembled
from bracket If pump end is assembled and rotation is incorrect, serious damage to pump end assembly can occur even if the switch is
“quickly bumped.” If rotation is incorrect, simply exchange any two leads.
2. Clean and inspect all pump parts (0-ring, seal seats, motor shaft, etc.).
3. Apply sealant to the bracket bore ID wall and around the seal case - follow sealant mfg. instructions. We recommend using Gasgacinch®,
Permatex® or 3M® 1300L. Silicone sealant can also be used for seals with metallic casings (not for IMPENATRA® seal).
4. Press seal head into bracket using a tool that is 1.5’’ (38mm) in width that will apply pressure to the seal case shoulder. Warning: Do not
apply pressure to the carbon or silicon carbide seal head.
5. Step A: Place slinger (rubber washer) over motor shaft. Step B: Mount bracket to motor using four M bolts supplied using a 9/16” (15mm)
ratchet wrench. Step C: Tighten bolts in a cross pattern to 60 in-lbs.
6. Step A: Carefully, lubricate the seal seat elastomer OD and impeller hub ID with water. Step B: Press the seal seat into the impeller hub making
certain that the ceramic is in evenly - the sealing surface should be parallel with the impeller hub.
7. Carefully lubricate carbon-graphite and ceramic sealing surfaces with CLEAN water. Warning: Do not use silicon lubricants or grease.
8. Step A: Thread impeller onto shaft and tighten! If required, remove motor end-cap and use a screwdriver on the back of motor shaft to
prevent shaft rotation while tightening. Step B: Replace motor end cap.
9. Step A: Seat large O-ring in volute O-ring channel. Step B: assemble volute to bracket with the 1/4-20 x 2 ¾” hex cap screws, washers and
nuts using two (x2) 7/16” (12mm) ratchet wrenches for Sequence® 1000 pumps and use a ½” (13mm) ratchet wrenches for Sequence® 3000
pumps. Step C: Tighten in a cross pattern (60 in-lbs).
10. Install drain plug with its O-ring in volute drain hole.
11. Before operating pump, allow a proper cure time for the sealant used in step 3.
DISASSEMBLY
1. Step A: Shut off power to motor before disconnecting any electrical wiring from the back of the motor Step B: Remove drain plug to drain or
empty out pump.
2. Disassemble volute from bracket by removing the seven 1/4” - 20 x 2 3/4” hex cap screws with a 7/16” (12mm) wrench or six (SEQ3000)
bolts with a 1/2’’ wrench (13mm).
3. Remove cap covering shaft at back of motor and with a large screwdriver. Warning: Prevent shaft rotation while unscrewing impeller.
4. Remove ceramic piece from impeller with either a flat head screw driver or pliers. Warning: If you are replacing the seal, eye protection is
recommended).
5. Detach bracket from motor using a 9/16” (15mm) wrench.
6. Remove mechanical seal from bracket by pressing out from the back. Warning: If you are replacing the seal, do not dig out from the front.

WARNING: EYE PROTECTION IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED
MAINTENANCE
*The pump must be drained before servicing or if stored below freezing temperatures. Periodic replacement of seals may be required due to normal carbon wear.
Lubrication
Motor - Permanently Lubricated ball bearings - no service required.
Rotary Seal - Requires no lubrication after assembly.
TROUBLE SHOOTING AID
Motor Will Not Rotate
1. Check for proper electrical connections to motor.
2. Check main power box for tripped circuit breaker.
3. Check thermal overload on motor.
Motor Hums Or Will Not Rotate At Correct Speed
1. Check for proper electrical connections to motor and proper cord size and length.
2. Check for foreign material inside pump.
3. Remove volute and check for impeller rotation without excessive resistance.
4. Remove pump and check shaft rotation for excessive bearing noise.
5. Check start switch and/or capacitor.
Pump Operates With Little Or No Flow
1. Check to insure that pump is primed.
2. Check for leaking seal.
3. Improper line voltage to motor or incorrect rotation.
4. Check for clogged inlet port and/or impeller.
5. Defective check or foot valve.
6. Check inlet lines for leakage, either uid or air.
Pump Loses Prime
1. Defective check or foot valve. 2. Inlet line air leakage.
3. Seal leaking. 4. Fluid supply low.
Motor Or Pump Overheats
1. Check for proper line voltage and phase, also proper motor wiring.
2. Binding motor shaft or pump parts.
3. Inadequate ventilation.
4. Fluid being pumped should not exceed 194°F (90°C) for extended periods of time
