IMPORTANT:

This jet pump is wired for either 115V or 230V. The label on the pump will state whether pump is pre-wired for 115V or 230V.

SAFETY INFORMATION

Please read and understand this entire manual before attempting to assemble, operate or install the product. If you have any questions regarding the product, please call customer service at 1-800-742-5044, 7:30 a.m.-5:00 p.m., EST, Monday-Friday.

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)

GENERAL PUMP INFORMATION

IL0068

1-1/4 in. Suction

TYPICAL PUMP SETUP

Shallow well jet pumps are designed for use where the suction lift is 25 feet or less. They can be used with drilled (cased wells) (Fig. 1), dug wells, driven wells (Fig. 2) or with cisterns or lakes.

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. See performance chart on page 2.

SUCTION LIFT

Suction lift is the vertical distance from the lowest level of the water to the pump intake. The pump will move water as long as the pump is within 25 vertical feet of the water source.

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. 2 & 3)

CAUTION: The entire system must be

air and water tight for efcient operation and to

maintain prime.

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 on page 11 for proper wire size.

WELL TO PUMP CONNECTION (SUCTION PIPE)

CAUTION: Dry-t entire assembly to ensure proper t before gluing or taping parts.

CAUTION: Follow all proper gluing procedures as specied by the glue manufacturer. Always

glue in a vertical direction whenever possible to prevent glue from dripping inside pipe or ttings

CAUTION: Use pipe tape and pipe paste compound on all male threads. Tighten with wrench to

a snug t and add another 1/4 turn to ensure proper seal.

1. JHU10S, EK10S, JHU15S, EL10S CPH05S Models Only

Attach ejector to face of pump with two (2) bolts and gasket provided. Venturi tube on the ejector inserts into the top tapping of the face of the pump (Fig. 1).

NOTE: Models ES05S, EK05S, ES07S, EK07S, EL05S and EL07S have built-in ejector.

2. Make the connection to your well rst. Wrap all threaded ttings with pipe tape 5 times

and then apply a pipe paste (pipe dope) to ensure an air tight connection. (Fig. 2)
