INSTALLATION - WIRING

1.

  Shut off the circuit breaker for the well system. Loosen 

the silver screw on top of the control and remove cover 

to expose the control wires.

 

Electrocution  hazard.

 For your 

safety, the information in this manual 

must be followed to minimize the risk of electric shock, 

property damage or personal injury. Properly ground 

to conform with all governing codes and ordinances. 

2.

  The 12 gauge wire leads are pre-stripped and ready 

to accept standard wire nuts. Each wire is color 

coded to correspond with the diagram below. Use 

water tight conduit, connections, and wire nuts for an  

outside application.

3.

  Wiring is similar to a traditional mechanical pressure 

switch. Two leads are connected to line supply, while 

the other supply the pump motor or starter. Wire the 

control to the line supply and pump motor or pump 

starter as required by the manufacturer's instructions. 

It is recommended that service switch be installed in 

addition to the circuit breaker. The disconnect for the 

controller must break all incoming power lines. This 

should interrupt line voltage and be installed near the 

Well-X1

®

 and labeled appropriately. 

4.

  After completing the wiring, reattach top cover and 

tighten screw. Ensure no loose wires protrude from  

the control.
