which the pump was intended can result in severe personal injury or death.
These risks may include but not be limited to electric shock, fire, flooding,
suction entrapment or severeinjury or property damage caused by a
structural failure of the pump or other system component
WARNING — The pump can produce high levels of suction within the suction side of the
plumbing system. These high levels of suction can pose a risk if a person
comes within the close proximity of the suction openings. A person can
be seriously injured by this high level of vacuum or may become trapped
and drown. It is absolutely critical that the suction plumbing be installed in
accordance with the latest national and local codes for swimming pools.
WARNING — In a domestic environment, this product may cause radio interference in
which case supplementary mitigation measures may be required.
WARNING — Do not install on IT (insulated terra) mains network (marine applications)
NOTE — If required by local building codes, the pump is to be supplied by an isolating
transformer or supplied through a residual current device (RCD) having a residual
operating current not exceeding 30 mA.
NOTE — Use only RCD/GFCI suitable for protecting equipment with a DC current content in
the fault current.
• These instructions contain information for a variety of pump models and therefore
some instructions may not apply to a specific model. All models are intended for
use in swimming pool applications. The pump will function correctly only if it is
properly sized to the specific application and properly installed.
