Table 1
• Maximum Liquid Temperature: 160º F (71º C)
• Starts per hour: 20 – evenly distributed.
PIPING
PIPING
• Pump MUST be installed horizontally on a solid flat surface,
with discharge on top.
• Allow adequate space for servicing and ventilation. Protect
the unit from weather and water damage due to rain or
flooding or freezing temperatures.
• Piping should be no smaller than the suction and discharge
connections and kept as short as possible, avoiding unneces-
sary ttings to minimize friction losses. See Table 1.
• All piping MUST be independently supported and MUST
NOT place any piping loads on the pump.
NOTICE: DO NOT FORCE PIPING INTO PLACE AT
PUMP SUCTION AND DISCHARGE
CONNECTIONS.
• The use of Teon™ tape, or equivalent, is recommended for
ALL pipe joints.
• All pipe joints MUST be airtight.
PIPING – SUCTION
• Total suction lift, including elevation and pipe friction loss,
should not exceed 25 feet.
• Install an airtight union in the suction line close to the pump.
See Figure 1.

NOTICE: FOR INSTALLATIONS WITH LONG SUCTION
PIPING, BOTH A FOOT VALVE AND A
CHECK VALVE ARE RECOMMENDED.
• To avoid air pockets, no part of the piping should be above
the pump suction connection and piping should slope up-
ward from liquid source.
• For installations with long suction piping, ll the suction pipe
with water before connecting to pump.
PIPING – DISCHARGE
• Install a tee at the discharge connection of the pump. The top
opening of the tee is required for initial priming. See Figure 1.
WIRING AND GROUNDING
WIRING AND GROUNDING
Install, ground and wire according
to local and National Electrical
Code requirements.
Install an all leg electrical power
disconnect switch near the pump.
Disconnect electrical power, before
installing or servicing pump.
Electrical supply MUST match pump’s nameplate
specifications. Incorrect voltage can cause fire, damage to the motor, and voids warranty.
Motors without built-in protection MUST be
provided with contactors and thermal overloads
for single phase motors, or starters with heaters for
three phase motors. See motor nameplate.
• Follow motor manufacturer’s wiring diagram on the motor
nameplate or terminal cover carefully.
• Use only copper wire to motor and ground. The ground wire
MUST be at least as large as the wire to the motor. Wires
should be color coded for ease of maintenance.

FAILURE TO PERMANENTLY
GROUND THE PUMP, MOTOR AND
CONTROLS BEFORE CONNECTING
TO ELECTRICAL POWER CAN CAUSE
SHOCK, BURNS, OR DEATH.
• Fill pump through opening in top of tee with clean water.
See Figure 1.
• Install pipe plug in top using Teon™ tape or equivalent on
male threads.
NOTICE: IF PUMP IS DRAINED OR SHUT OFF DURING
PRIMING PERIOD, ENSURE CASING IS
REFILLED BEFORE RESTARTING PUMP.
• Start the pump motor and wait for system pressure to stabilize.
If system pressure is surging, or prolonged pressure drop is
experienced, the system may not be completely primed.
ROTATION
ROTATION
NOTICE: INCORRECT ROTATION MAY CAUSE
DAMAGE TO THE PUMP AND VOIDS THE
WARRANTY.
• Correct rotation is right hand, CLOCKWISE when viewed
from the motor end.
• Single phase motors with more than 4 wires (leads) may be
reversible designs. Insure that the motor is rotating in the correct direction. See motor nameplate for wiring instructions.
• Three phase unit rotation may be checked by removing motor end cap or plug and observing rotation of motor shaft. To
reverse rotation, reverse any two of the three motor leads.

equivalent.
11. Locate the diffuser on the motor adapter with the stop
piece in the 12 o'clock position.
12. Locate the diffuser seal ring on the machined nose of the
diffuser and make sure it's pushed rmly into place.

position of the seall ring, tighten casing bolts alternately
and evenly. Torque to 37 lbs-ft (50 N•M).
14. Check impeller for binding by rotating the motor shaft.
If binding occurs, loosen bolts, readjust diffuser until
impeller hub turns freely. Tighten bolts again.
