Swimming Pool/Hot Tub Pumps
Refer to pump manual 1808-634-00 for General Operating and Safety Instructions.
DESCRIPTION
These bronze centrifugal pumps are designed for high volume liquid handling in spas or other applications where moderate pressures and high volumes
are required.
to a wide variety of swimming pool
filters. All units are manual models. No controls are supplied. For use with nonflammable, non-abrasive liquids compatible with pump component
materials.
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the risk if injury, do not permit children to use product unless they are closely supervised at all times.
This pump is for use with permanently installed pools and may also be used with hot tubs and spas if so marked. Do not use with storable pools. A
permanently installed pool is constructed in or on the ground or in a building such that it cannot be readily disassembled for storage. A storable pool is
constructed so that it may readily disassembled for storage and reassembled to its original integrity. For hot tub and spa pumps
– do not install within an
outer enclosure or beneath the skirt of a hot tub or spa unless so marked.
Important Safety Instructions
Save these instructions
When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
A copper bonding conductor of no smaller than 8 AWG must be connected from the ground screw on the motor to ALL metal parts of the pool, spa or hot tub
structure, and to all electrical equipment, metal conduit, and metal piping within 5 feet of the inside wall of a swimming pool, spa, or hot tub, when the motor is
installed within 5 feet of the inside walls of the swimming pool, spa, or hot tub. For specific safety precautions for installation and electrical connection information
and to reduce the potential for fire, electric shock, or injury, read and follow all information and instructions contained in the form 1808-634-00, Electric Motor
Driven Pumps Operating Instructions.
NOTE:
If the pump is located above the liquid level, a positive sealing foot valve must be installed at the end of the suction line or in the piping just before the
pump. If the unit is used with a strainer basket, the foot valve or check value will be required only when the suction lift or distance the pump is from the water level
is greater than 10 feet. If the strainer basket is not used, it is recommended that you use another suitable means of straining foreign material out of the suction line.
MAINTENANCE
Make certain that unit is disconnected from power source before attempting
to service or remove any components!
