ELECTRICAL WIRING INSTALLATION
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR ELECTROCUTION. The SuperFlo
®
VS Variable Speed
Pump must be installed by a
licensed or certified electrician or a qualified service professional in accordance with the National Electrical Code and all
applicable local codes and ordinances. Improper installation will create an electrical hazard which could result in death
or serious injury to users, installers, or others due to electrical shock, and may also cause damage to property.
Always disconnect power to the pump at the circuit breaker before servicing the pump. Failure to do so could result
in death or serious injury to service people, pool users or others due to electric shock and/or property damage. Read
all servicing instructions before working on the pump.
1. Be sure all electrical breakers and switches are turned
off before wiring motor.
2. Be sure that the wiring voltage matches the motor
voltage (220-240 Vrms). If they do not match, the
motor can overheat.
3. Choose a wire size for the pump in accordance with
the current National Electrical Code and all applicable
local codes and ordinances. When in doubt use a
heavier gauge (larger diameter) wire. Heavier gauge
will allow the motor to run cooler and more efficient.
4. Be sure all electrical connections are clean and tight.
5. Cut wires to the appropriate length so they do not
overlap or touch when connected to the terminal
board.
6. Permanently ground the motor using the ground
screw located on the inside rear of the controller
interface, see figure 4. Use the correct wire size and
type specified by the current local government .Be
sure the ground wire is connected to an electrical
service ground.
7. The pump should be permanently connected to either
a circuit breaker, 2-pole timer or 2-pole relay. If AC
power is supplied by a GFCI circuit breaker, use a
dedicated circuit breaker that has no other electrical
loads.
8. Connect the pump permanently to a circuit. Make
sure no other lights or appliances are on the same
circuit.
Wiring
Note: When the pump is started and stopped by
removing power with a relay or timer, a two-pole
device should be used to apply and remove power
to both POWER LINE TERMINALS.
