4. Installation


NOTE: For pumps operating in swimming pool
installations the pump is to be supplied by an isolating
transformer or through a residual current device (RCD).

1. The pump can be installed either vertically or
horizontally (See Figure 2). Make sure to secure the
pump on a flat level surface that will support 50-lbs
(22kg) and secure with four .25-in (6mm) screws in the
holes provided. The guard snaps into the back of the
pump via three tangs (See Figure 1). The pump should
be mounted with no less than 1.75-in (44mm) of
clearance around the venting on both the front and the
rear of the pump. Locate the pump so there is direct
access to the power cord plug.

The pump is rated for indoor use only. For applications
that are subject to splashing make sure the pump is
mounted horizontally level with splash guard in place.
Vertical mountings require the purchase of optional
hood (J63004).

2. Verify the electrical requirements for the pump
as listed on the name plate and connect to an appropriate electrical source in
compliance with local codes for the specific application.

3. Relieve the system pressure and drain the piping run where the injection
fitting is to be installed. See Figure 2 for reference. The injection fitting must
not be installed in a dead end pipe or a deeply recessed tee. It should be
installed so as to place the tip at the center of the fluid stream as indicated
in Figure 2.
The injection fitting is supplied with .25-in NPT threads. If necessary
drill a .44-in (11mm) diameter hole, and using care not to tap to deeply, tap for
.25-in NPT.
