4.6.
Electrical Specs
1.
Voltage: 230VAC, 60Hz, Single Phase
2.
Amps: 5.9
3.
Speed Range: 600-3000 rpm
Use copper conductors only. For indoor & outdoor use. Connect pump to a 15 amp branch circuit in accordance with
local codes, regulations, and the National Electric Code (NEC). A disconnecting means located at least 5 ft. from the
inside wall of the pool, spa, or hot tub must be provided.
4.7.
Voltage
Voltage at pump MUST NOT be more than 10% above or below nameplate rated voltage, or components may
overheat, causing overload tripping and reduced component life. If voltage is less than 90% (207 V) or more than
110% (253 V) of rated voltage (230 V) when pump is running at full load, consult the power company.
4.8.
Grounding and Bonding
1.
Install, ground, bond, and wire pump in accordance with local or national electrical code requirements.
2.
Permanently ground pump. Use green ground terminal provided under access plate; use size and type wire
required by code. Connect ground terminal to electrical service ground.
3.
Bond pump to pool structure. Bonding will connect all metal parts within and around the pool with a continuous
wire. Bonding reduces the risk of a current passing between bonded metal objects, which could potentially
cause electrical shock if grounded or shorted. Reference NEC codes for all wiring standards including, but not
limited to, grounding, bonding and general wiring procedures.
4.
Use a solid copper conductor, size 8 or larger. Run wire from external bonding lug to reinforcing rod or mesh.
Connect a No. 8 AWG (8.4 mm
2
) [No. 6 AWG (13.3 mm
2
) for Canada] solid copper bonding wire to the pressure
wire connector provided on the motor housing and to all metal parts of swimming pool, spa, or hot tub, and to
all electrical equipment, metal piping (except gas piping), and conduit within 5 ft. (1.5 m) of inside walls of
swimming pool, spa, or hot tub.
4.9.
Wiring
WARNING
– All electrical wiring MUST conform to local codes, regulations, and the National Electric Code
(NEC).
1.
Pump MUST be permanently connected to circuit. If other lights or appliances are also on the same circuit, be
sure to add their amp loads before calculating wire and circuit breaker sizes. Use the circuit breaker as the
master On-Off switch.
4.10.
Installation Procedure
Please review sections 4.1 through 4.9 before continuing with this section.
1.
TURN OFF THE ELECTRICAL POWER AT THE CIRCUIT BREAKER.
2.
Remove the wiring access cover on the motor drive. This is done by removing the four (4) screws on the top of
the cover using a 3mm hex wrench. Note, be careful not to pull on the wires going to the controller when
removing.
