Introduction
This manual is broken down into two sections and describes the installation,
operation and control module for 1900e series pumps. Section 1 describes
the installation and operation features. Section 2 describes the control mod-
ule and its functions.
1 - General Information Uses
The 1900e series circulating pumps are available in 2 versions. The cast
iron version is used for the transfer of liquid media within a closed-loop
hot-water heating or air-conditioning hydronic system. They are to be used
with a water or glycol/water mixture. The stainless steel version is used
in potable DHW systems or where NSF/ANSI 61-G & 372 compliance is
required.
Both the cast iron and stainless steel versions are designed as single or
parallel main/standby operation variable-speed pumps, where the speed is
regulated by an on-board electronic device.
2 - Safety
These instructions should be studied carefully before installing or operating
the pump. They are meant to help you with installation, use and mainte-
nance and to increase your safety. Installation should be performed with re-
gards to local or national standards. Only qualified personnel should main-
tain and service these products. Failure to comply with safety precautions
could cause personal injury or machinery damage.
Warning:
Do not use in swimming pool or spa areas. Pump
has not been investigated for these applications.
AVERTISSEMENT:
Ne pas utiliser dans une piscine ou un
spa. La pompe n’a pas été étudiée pour ces applications.
Warning:
To avoid electrical shock, disconnect the power
supply to the circulator and the main electrical unit. Follow
all local electrical and plumbing codes.
AVERTISSEMENT:
Pour éviter tout choc électrique,
débranchez l’alimentation électrique vers le circu-lateur et
l’unité électrique principale. Respectez tous les codes de
plomberie et électriques locaux.
Warning:
Hot surfaces can cause burns. The motor can
also reach temperatures that could cause injury.
AVERTISSEMENT:
Les surfaces chaudes peuvent provo-
quer des brûlures. Le moteur peut également atteindre des
températures qui peuvent entraîner des blessures.
Warning:
The addition of petroleum based fluids or certain
chemical additives to systems using TACO equipment voids
the warranty.
AVERTISSEMENT:
L’ajout de liquides à base de pétrole ou
de certains additifs chimiques à des systèmes utilisant un
équipement TACO annule la garantie.
Warning:
Use supply wires suitable for 90°C.
Warning:
Misconnection or overload of electrical or signal
connections could cause pump to shut-down or cause per-
manent damage.
AVERTISSEMENT:
Employer des fils d’alimentation ade-
qauts pour 90°C.
AVERTISSEMENT:
Toute erreur de raccordement ou sur-
charge des connexions électriques ou de signali-sation
peut entraîner un arrêt de la pompe ou des dommages
permanents.
Warning:
Do not operate pump without the electrical cover
securely attached.
AVERTISSEMENT:
Ne pas actionner la pompe si le cou-
vercleélectrique n’est pas correctement fixé.
Warning:
Pump motor, electronics enclosure and conden-
sate drain openings should not be thermally insulated as
it could interfere with cooling and condensate drainage.
AVERTISSEMENT:
Lemoteur depompe, l’enceinte électro-
nique et les ouvertures de drainage de condensat doivent
être thermiquement isolés car il peut y avoir interférence
avec l’évacuation de condensat et deliquide de refroidisse-
ment.
3 - Pump Description
The high efficiency, electronically commutated, close coupled 1900e series
pumps consist of two main parts; the centrifugal pump and the electronic
control. The hydraulic section is sealed from the motor assembly by a me-
chanical seal. 1900e series pumps are powered by an electronically com-
mutated permanent magnet motor (ECM) which does not consume energy
to magnetize the rotor, providing superior energy efficiency.
The ECM motor is run by an on-board frequency converter. The converter
estimates current flow and head from the motor load. With this information
the self-sensing ECM pump constantly calculates pump pressure and flow
and adapts motor speed to the appropriate flow.

4 - Use
All 1900e series pumps equipped with a cast iron casing are intended for
circulation of solid-free fluid in pressurized, hot and chilled hydronic sys-
tems. All 1900e series pumps equipped with a stainless steel casing are
intended for DHW and potable water applications and are NSF Commercial
Hot (180°F water) rated and suitable for sanitizing applications.
