Installation (Continued)
5.
A pressure gauge installed in
the inlet pipe close to the inlet
port, (See Figure 6) will show if
enough water is being supplied
to the pump. See Operation
Section - Priming, Pressure Boost
Installations.
6.
On installations that are using
nozzles for mist spraying, install
a filter in the discharge plumbing
to prevent the nozzles from
becoming plugged. Multiple filters
should be plumbed in parallel.
Install a pressure
!
relief valve on any
installation where
pump pressure can exceed the pressure
tank's maximum working pressure or
on systems where the discharge line
can be shut off or obstructed. Extreme
over pressure can result in personal
injury or property damage.
This unit is not
waterproof and is
not intended to be
used in showers, saunas or other
potentially wet locations. The motor is
designed to be used in a clean dry
location with access to an adequate
supply of cooling air. Ambient
temperature around the motor should
not exceed 104ºF (40ºC). For outdoor
installations, motor must be protected
by a cover that does not block airflow
to and around the motor. This unit is
not weatherproof nor is it able to be
submersed in water or any other
liquid.
To avoid dangerous or fatal
electrical shock, turn off power to
motor before working on electrical
connections.
Supply voltage must be within ±
10% of nameplate voltage. Incorrect
voltage can cause fire or seriously
damage motor and voids warranty. If
in doubt, consult a licensed electrician.
Use wire size specified in wiring
Chart F. If possible, connect pump
to a separate branch circuit with no
other appliances on it. If motor wiring
diagram differs from diagram shown
below, follow diagram on motor.

IMPORTANT: A contained air pressure tank and pressure switch is required to
keep the pump from rapid cycling and prevent the motor from over heating.
Install the tank and switch on the house side of system.
