For 

120 v

 models:

 Referring to 

diagram 2

 below, connect the  

black, hot, (L) and white, neutral, (N) leads of the supply 
wire to the black and white motor leads respectively inside    
the terminal box. Connect the ground wire to any one of the  
four green ground screws inside of the terminal box (use a    
minimum 

18

 

awg

 wire size).

     

For 

208/240/277 

v models:

 Referring to 

diagram 3

 below,    

connect the black (

l1

) and blue (

l2

) leads of the supply  

wire to the black and blue motor leads respectively inside    
the terminal box. Connect the ground wire to any one of the 
four green ground screws inside of the terminal box (use a    
minimum 

18

 

awg

 wire size).

note:

 

For any voltage the brown and yellow wires are hard wired in 

and should 

not

 be touched they are for the capacitor only and can 

stop the motor from running.

  Replace the terminal box cover.

The motor is thermally protected for your safety so thermal 
overload protection is not necessary. All that is required is a 
fused plug or circuit breaker in the power line for short circuit 
protection.
Electrical information can be found on the nameplate of  
the motor.

3.0  start up

1

  Before starting up the circulator, proper installation practice  

recommends a thorough flush and draining of the hydronic 
system, ensuring removal of all foreign materials. Fill the  
system with clean water or glycol solution before starting.

2

  Air must be completely vented from the system before  

starting up the circulator. 

If the system is not completely  

vented of air and the circulator is allowed to run dry, the  
mechanical seal will be damaged.

3

   When the system has been completely filled and vented, 

only then can the pump be started.

4.0 preventive maintenance – inspection

e.2 s

eries circulators are fitted with permanently lubricated 

ball bearings and 

do not

 require lubrication.

Although Armstrong long-life circulators are designed to 
provide years of worry-free service, it is good maintenance 
practice to inspect the entire hydronic system periodically – 
including the 

e.2 s

eries circulator – for potential problems. If 

there is any evidence of leakage or damage, repair or replace 
the pump.
Disconnect and lockout the power before servicing.
