Important Safety Instructions
WARNING
! This unit should not be serviced in the eld. Do not disassemble or reconnect
components in the eld use authori ed factory service only. High voltage and rotating parts can cause
serious or fatal in ury. Safe installation, operation and maintenance must be performed by quali ed
personnel. Familiarization with and adherence to the National Electric Code, NFPA (National Fire Protection
Association) standards and local codes is required. It is important to observe safety precautions to protect
personnel from possible injury. Personnel should be instructed for handling each of the following:
• This motor control/timer should be powered from
a separate circuit of adequate capacity to maintain
sufficient voltage during starting and running conditions.
Wire size shall be adequate to minimize voltage drop
during starting and running. A qualified or licensed
electrician should be used to properly size the motor
control/timer supply circuit. Reference Articles 310
and 400 of the NEC for further information on wire
sizing. A 8 AWG or larger conductor must be wired
to the motor control/timer ground/bonding lug. Use
6 AWG in Canada. Wiring, including flexible cords,
should be as short as possible to minimize voltage
drop. All electrical connections in this system must be
secure to prevent voltage drop and localized heating.
If AC power is supplied by a GFCI circuit breaker, use
a dedicated circuit that has no other electrical loads.
GFCI use shall be in accordance with NEC and all other
applicable state, local, and national electrical codes.
• A 2-pole device, such as a circuit breaker, relay,
timer, etc., that creates an open circuit when the
motor control is “OFF” should be used to permanently
connect the motor and timer. Failure to use a 2-pole
device will result in voltage being present at the
motor and timer and potential shock hazard.
• To connect power to the motor control/timer unit, refer
to the connection diagram on the motor nameplate and
the timer connection label.
• Insulate all connections carefully to prevent grounding or
short circuits. Reinstall all conduit and terminal box covers.
• Voltage to the motor control/timer shall be within plus or
minus 10 of the nameplate voltage to avoid overheating
and loss of performance.
• Make sure the unit is electrically grounded and proper
electrical installation wiring and controls are used
consistent with local and national electric codes. Refer
to “National Electrical Code Handbook” NFPA No. 70.
Employ qualified electricians. Insulate all connections
carefully to prevent grounding or short circuits. Reinstall
all conduit and terminal box covers.
• Code requirements differ from state to state. Install
equipment in accordance with all applicable codes
and ordinances in your area and in accordance with
the National Electrical Code. All electrical connections
should be made and maintained by a qualified or
licensed electrician.
• Make sure there are no unusual noises or vibrations
when the motor/control is running. If noise and vibration
are observed, refer to the Troubleshooting section on
page 16.
• This motor/control shall only be used above ground.
It is not a submersible pump motor/control.
• Pump size and pump impeller size shall match the
existing hydraulic system of the pool.
• Avoid contact with energized circuits or rotating parts.
• Provide proper safeguards for personnel against
rotating parts.
WARNING
!
Always dis onne t ele tri al power
at the use o or ir uit rea er e ore handlin
ele tri al onne tions or per ormin maintenan e
on this unit ou le he to ma e sure power is O
and that it annot e turned on while you are wor in
on the equipment
WARNING
!
In the event of a motor control/timer
power outage, the motor control/timer may restart
without warning.
WARNING
!
A poor electrical connection can overheat
and cause terminal and/or terminal board failures.
Because of this possibility, wiring harness quick-connect
terminals should be examined carefully for any signs
of physical deterioration or loose fit to the terminals on
the motor/control terminal board. If there is evidence
that the electrical connection is loose or deteriorated,
quick-connect terminals should be removed from the
wiring harness so the wires can be connected directly
to the motor/timer terminals. Care must be taken to
assure connections are made to the proper terminals
and adequate electrical clearances are maintained.
WARNING
!
Although the 2EZ Speed
TM
motor
control/timer is a product designed for outdoor use,
rare circumstances (i.e., motor submersion due to
flood or high pressure water stream aimed directly
at motor), might allow water to infiltrate the motor
control/timer. If this occurs, the unit shall be serviced
by a qualified service person before operating. Wet
internal components may cause a shock hazard.
WARNING
!
To prevent accidents, make sure
equipment is properly protected to prevent access by
children or other unauthorized personnel.
WARNING
!
The control/timer on top of the motor
contains potentially hazardous voltage inside and should
NEVER be opened or disassembled for any reason.
The User Interface should NEVER be disassembled
from the control/timer for any reason.
CAUTION
!
Direct-coupled installations, such as
pool pump products, require a careful check of shaft
and coupling alignment. Position the motor/timer for
proper alignment. Do not depend on a flexible coupling
to compensate for misalignment. Do not strike the motor
shaft with a hammer or other tool as this may damage
the bearings.
CAUTION
!
Act with care and in accordance
with prescribed procedures in handling and lifting this
equipment.
NOTICE
!
Become familiar with the equipment
and read all instructions thoroughly before installing or
working on the equipment.
NOTICE
!
The 2EZ Speed
TM
motor control/timer
is properly packaged for shipment. Storage should be
in a clean, dry indoor area.
NOTICE
!
Safety glasses should be worn to inspect
the equipment while it is running or while a mallet or
hammer is used, especially if cover plates are removed.
NOTICE
!
All aspects of the installation shall
conform to the applicable requirements of the NEC
(National Electrical Code), including Article 430 (Motor
Circuits and Controllers), as well as all local codes.
NOTICE
!
The 2EZ Speed
TM
motor control/timer
shall be used for swimming pool pump applications only.
NOTICE
!
There is a small time delay before the
unit starts.
NOTICE
!
The 2EZ Speed
TM
motor control/timer
is controlled for automatic starts. Starting is controlled
by your program schedule or via user input through the
user interface mounted on top of the motor.
NOTICE
!
The Association of Pool and Spa
Professionals (APSP) recommends the following to
keep your pool, spa, or hot tub safe and free from
entrapment risk:
• Have your pool inspected by a licensed industry
professional
• There is no backup for a broken, missing or inadequate
drain cover. Replace any broken, missing or non-
compliant drain covers with drain covers marked:
“VGB2008,” “ASME/ANSI A112.19.8-2007,” or drain
covers showing the swimmer logo.
• Pools or spas with a single main drain require additional
protection. Options include:
1. Eliminating the drain or reversing the flow
2. Adding a second, properly spaced outlet
. Installing an SVRS (Safety Vacuum Release
System). THIS FEATurE IS noT A AILABLE
on your nEW 2EZ SPEED
TM
MoTor/TIMEr.
. Installing an automatic pump shut-off system
. Installing a suction-limiting vent system
6. Adding a gravity drainage system
