WD & WH MODEL INSTALLATION

WIRING DIAGRAM FOR MODELS

WD - 230V, 1 Ph, 60 Hz.

WH - 200/208V, 1 Ph, 60 Hz.

Models WD & WH are fully automatic. A float switch is included and 

factory wired in the pump circuit to provide automatic operation 

once the float switch is secured properly to the outlet pipe. Use the 

diagram above to secure the float switch properly and obtain the 

proper tether to customize the on-off cycle to each application.

max.

Use only as a guide. Due to weight of 

cable, pumping range above horizontal 

is not equal to pumping range below 

horizontal. Ranges are based on testing in 

nonturbulent conditions. Range may vary 

due to water temperature and cord shape. 

As tether length increases, so does the 

variance of the pumping range.

THREE PHASE WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

 FOR YOUR PROTECTION, ALWAYS 

DISCONNECT PUMP FROM ITS POWER SOURCE 

BEFORE HANDLING

.

To automatically operate a nonautomatic three phase pump, a 

control panel is required.  Follow the instructions provided with the 

panel to wire the system.  For automatic three phase pumps see 

automatic 3 phase wiring diagram located to the far right.
Before installing a pump, check the pump rotation to ensure that 

wiring has been connected properly to power source, and that 

the green lead of power cord (See wiring diagram), is connected 

to a valid ground. Momentarily energize the pump, observing the 

directions of kick back due to starting torque. Rotation is correct if 

kick back is in the opposite direction of rotation arrow on the pump 

casing. If rotation is not correct, switching of any two power leads 

other than ground, should provide the proper rotation.

All three phase pumps require motor starting devices with motor 

overload protection. See FM0486 for duplex installations.  Pumps

 

must

 be installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code 

and all applicable local codes and ordinances. Pumps are not to 

be installed in locations classified as hazardous in accordance 

with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.

SINGLE PHASE WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

 FOR YOUR PROTECTION, ALWAYS DISCONNECT PUMP FROM ITS POWER SOURCE BEFORE HANDLING

.  Single phase 

pumps are supplied with a 3-prong grounded plug to help protect you against the possibility of electrical shock. 

DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES 

REMOVE THE GROUND PIN.

  The 3-prong plug 

must 

 be inserted into a mating 3-prong grounded receptacle. 

If

 the installation does not have such 

a receptacle, it must be changed to the proper type, wired and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and all applicable local codes 

and ordinances.

 “Risk of electrical shock”  

Do not remove power supply cord and strain relief or connect conduit directly to the pump.

 Installation and checking of electrical circuits and hardware should be performed by a qualified licensed electrician.

 Units supplied without a plug (single and three phase) and single phase nonautomatic units with a 20 amp plug must have a motor 

control and liquid level control provided at time of installation. The control device should have suitable voltage, ampere, frequency, grounding and 

horsepower rating for the pump to which it is connected.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: 

Some insurance policies, both commercial and residential, extend coverage for damages incurred by product failure. You will need to 

have possession of the product to support your claim in most cases. Zoeller Pump Co. will exchange the unit or refund the original purchase price once the claim 

is settled with the insurer in the case where you need to retain possession of the product to support a damage claim you submit to your insurance company.
