4.02 Changing the Voltage Setting on 8907, 8912 and 8917 “A”- Models only

The pumps are set for low voltage (LV) 115 volts 60 Hz.

They may also be set for high voltage (HV) 230 volts 60 Hz.

To change the voltage setting, see the wiring diagram below.

4.03 Changing the Voltage Setting on 8907, 8912 and 8917 “C”- Models with Global Motor Option

The voltage setting is permanently displayed in a small window on the pump motor electrical box.

The window is located next to the power cord connection and displays either

LV for 100-120V or HV for 200-230V.

To change VOLTAGE setting:

1.

Disconnect the electrical power cord.

2.

Open the motor electrical box by removing the

four screws and removing the cover.

3.

Locate the voltage selection switch next

to the external electrical power cord connector.

4.

Remove the voltage marker (61-6071).

The switch is very tightly installed.

To remove, place index and middle

finger along the top edge and pull backwards.

5.

Change the voltage selection switch (61-1303)

to the opposite position.

6.

Rotate the voltage marker, 180° and insert

into previous location. The voltage marker

is keyed to the switch setting so that it

can only display the correct setting. The

selected voltage setting can been seen through

the window in the electrical box.

7.

Replace the electrical box cover

before reconnecting the power cord.

8.

Attach solenoid valve leads. One lead of the

solenoid valve to orange motor wire, and one lead to yellow motor wire.

CAUTION

Make certain that the voltage setting (LV or HV) is in the

correct range for your power before plugging in.
