directly across the line.
To Connect Pump
Run wire from pump to the control box or appropriate
junction box suitable for enclosing splice connections.
With power off, connect green (ground) line to
ground lug. Connect black (power) wires to power
lead terminals. Make sure that all wires are not in a
position to be pinched or shorted when installed. See
wiring diagrams, page 5.
All three phase motors can run in either direction.
Rotation can be changed by interchanging any two
line leads at magnetic starter.
CAUTION:
Be sure circuit breaker is off
before making this change.
To find if rotation is correct operate pumps and check
delivery operation. If flow and head is slow (refer to
pump curve shown in this manual) the rotation is
wrong. With duplex pumps check operation of both
pumps.
All pump impellers either single or three phase must
turn counterclockwise when looking into pump inlet.
If uncertain of rotation, turn off power and lift pump
from basin with cord connected and lay pump on side
so impeller can be seen. Turn on power and start
pump using hand position of H-O-A switch. Turn on
and off fast, so that coast of impeller can be seen.
WARNING:
Never put hand or fingers on the
impeller. Interchange any two line leads at the
magnetic starter to change rotation.
Pump does not run or start when water is up in
tank.
1. Check for blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker.
2. Check for burned-out motor. Occasionally
lightning can damage a motor even with
lightning protection.
3. Where plug-in cords are used be sure contact
blades are clean and making good contact. Do
not use plug-in cords inside a basin or wet well.
Pump runs but does not deliver flow
1. Check for air lock. Start and stop pump several
Troubleshooting
times. If this does not help it may be necessary
to loosen a union in the discharge line to relieve
air lock.
2. Check valve may be installed backward. Check
flow arrow on valve bod. Check shut-off valve.
It may be closed.
3. Check vertical elevation. It may be higher than
pump can develop. (See pump curve page 4.)
4. Pump inlet may be plugged. Remove pump to
check.
CAUTION:
Follow proper lockout procedure
before working on pump. If control panel is
remote from pump, disconnect lead wires to motor so
that no one can turn the circuit breaker back on.
