Electrical Connection
Hazardous voltage . Risk of dangerous or
fatal electric shock. Plug the pump into a 115 Volt,
60 Cycle, Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
protected grounded outlet only. The pump is equipped
with a 3-wire grounded cord and plug. Do not modify
or remove the plug. Make sure the outlet meets the
National Electric Code or the Canadian Electrical Code,
as applicable. To avoid dangerous electrical shock
hazard, keep the cord dry at all times. See Figure 2.
Automatic Pressure Controller
The Automatic Pressure Controller mounts on the pump.
It protects against:
• Run-dry operation;
• Frequent starts caused by small water losses in
the system;
• Pressure drop.
The Automatic Pressure Controller features the following
LEDs and controls:
- ‘Power on’ LED: indicates that the unit is electrically
connected and that voltage is present. The pump is
ready to operate.
- ‘Pump on’ LED: indicates that the pump is running
and actually pumping water.
- ‘Failure’ LED: indicates that no water is detected
coming into the pump.
- ‘Restart’ button: resets any safeties which have
tripped and allows the pump to restart.

Booster Pump
Risk of burns . NEVER run the pump dry.
Running the pump without water may cause pump to
overheat and cause burns to persons handling the pump.
It may also damage the impeller and may damage the
seal, causing leaking or flooding, and will void the
warranty. Fill the pump with water before starting it.
Make sure that the Automatic Booster Pump has been
properly installed and primed, and that the suction pipe
is unobstructed and open.
Plug in the pump. 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,
and
• The flow has stopped.
This is normal operation.
Restart: A water flow in the system greater than 1/4 GPM
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, and
• The flow stops.
NOTICE: 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, and
• The ‘Failure’ LED will go on.
