OPERATION
WARNING:
NEVER run the pump dry. For shallow well application, fill the pump with water before starting it. (Refer to
Figure 2)
Make sure that the Pump has been properly installed, and that the suction pipe is unobstructed and open.
Plug pump into 115V GFCI protected outlet.
The „Power on‟ and „Pump on‟ lights will come on indicating, respectively, that voltage is present and that the pump is
ready to operate.
The pump will start and will continue to operate until several seconds after the system pressure has risen and flow has
stopped.
WHEN DOES THE PUMP STOP OPERATING?
Pressure Set-Point/No Flow:
The pump will stop operating and the „Pump on‟ LED will go off several seconds after:
The system pressure is above the starting pressure.
The flow has stopped.
This is normal operation
Restart:
A water flow in the system greater than 1/4 GPM or a drop in pressure below the starting pressure set-point will
cause the pump to restart and the „Pump on‟ LED to light up. The pump will continue to operate until several seconds
after:
It reaches the maximum pressure of the pump.
The flow stops.
NOTE:
The delay in shutting off the pump prevents rapid cycling when water faucets are being turned on and off quickly
(for example, when brushing teeth, etc.).
Pressure Drop/No Flow:
Normally, when the pump starts, it will very quickly generate pressure and sense flow. If there
is no flow and the pressure does not rise, it senses a “no water” condition. It can also sense this during operation if the
water supply to the pump fails. To protect the pump from running dry:
Several seconds after it detects “no water”, the pump will stop operating,
The „Pump on‟ LED will go out.
The „Failure‟ LED will go on.
Restart:
Make sure that the suction line is not obstructed, and that it is connected to a water source.
Press and hold the „Restart‟ button for 5 seconds.
The „Pump on‟ LED should light up.
The „Failure‟ LED should go off.
If flow is adequate, the pump will operate until several seconds after it reaches the set-point pressure and the flow stops.
LUBRICATION
The motor is lubricated at the factory for the life of the bearings. The pump seal is water cooled and self-lubricating.
WARNING
: Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn, or cause death. Unplug the pump and controller before servicing
them. Do not handle the pump or controller or attempt to work on the pump with wet hands or while standing on a wet or
damp floor.
The motor has an auto-reset thermal overload protector. If the motor overheats, the overload will cut off the power to
prevent damage and will reset after the motor cools. If the overload trips repeatedly, check the pump for the cause (low
voltage, a clogged impeller, etc.).
