IMPORTANT PUMP WARNING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety
precautions should always be followed, include the following:
Do not permit children to use this product.
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Connect only to
a branch circuit protected by a ground-fault circuit-
interrupter (GFCI). Contact a qualified electrician if you cannot verify that
the circuit is protected by a GFCI.
This unit must be connected only to a supply circuit
that is protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter
(GFCI). Such a GFCI should be provided by the installer and should
be tested on a routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the test button.
The GFCI should interrupt power. Push the reset button. Power should
be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, the GFCI is
defective. If the GFCI interrupts power to the pump without the test button
being pushed, a ground current is flowing, indicating the possibility of an
electric shock. Do not use this pump. Disconnect the pump and have the
problem corrected by a qualified service representative before using.
This pump is for use with permanent swimming
pools and may also be used with hot tubs and spas if
so marked. Do not use with storable pools. A permanently-installed pool
is constructed in or on the ground or in a building such that it cannot be
readily disassembled for storage. A storable pool is constructed so that
it is capable of being readily disassembled for storage and reassembled
to its original integrity.
General Warnings
• Never open the inside of the drive motor enclosure. There is a
capacitor bank that holds a 230 VAC charge even when there is no
power to the unit.
• The pump is not submersible.
• The pump is capable of high flow rates; use caution when installing
and programming to limit pumps performance potential with old or
questionable equipment.
• Code requirements for electrical connection differ from country to
country, state to state, as well as local municipalities. Install equipment
in accordance with the National Electrical Code and all applicable
local codes and ordinances.
• Before servicing the pump; switch OFF power to the pump by
disconnecting the main circuit to the pump.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) of
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their
safety.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND
WARNINGS CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS BODILY
INJURY OR DEATH. THIS PUMP SHOULD BE INSTALLED AND
SERVICED ONLY BY A QUALIFIED POOL SERVICE PROFESSIONAL.
INSTALLERS, POOL OPERATORS AND OWNERS MUST READ THESE
WARNINGS AND ALL INSTRUCTIONS IN THE OWNER’S MANUAL
BEFORE USING THIS PUMP. THESE WARNINGS AND THE OWNER’S
MANUAL MUST BE LEFT WITH THE POOL OWNER.
SUCTION ENTRAPMENT HAZARD: STAY OFF
THE MAIN DRAIN AND AWAY FROM ALL SUCTION
OUTLETS!
THE USE OF UNAPPROVED COVERS OR ALLOWING USE OF
THE POOL OR SPA WHEN COVERS ARE MISSING, CRACKED OR
BROKEN CAN RESULT IN BODY OR LIMB ENTRAPMENT, HAIR
ENTANGLEMENT, BODY ENTRAPMENT, EVISCERATION AND/OR
DEATH.
The suction at a drain or outlet can cause:
Limb Entrapment: When a limb is sucked or inserted into an opening
resulting in a mechanical bind or swelling. This hazard is present when
a drain cover is missing, broken, loose, cracked or not properly secured.
Hair Entanglement: When the hair tangles or knots in the drain cover,
trapping the swimmer underwater. This hazard is present when the flow
rating of the cover is too small for the pump or pumps.
Body Entrapment: When a portion of the body is held against the drain
cover trapping the swimmer underwater. This hazard is present when the
drain cover is missing, broken or the cover flow rating is not high enough
for the pump or pumps.
Evisceration/Disembowelment: When a person sits on an open pool
(particularly a child wading pool) or spa outlet and suction is applied directly
to the intestines, causing severe intestinal damage. This hazard is present
when the drain cover is missing, loose, cracked, or not properly secured.
THIS PUMP PRODUCES HIGH LEVELS OF SUCTION AND CREATES
A STRONG VACUUM AT THE MAIN DRAIN AT THE BOTTOM OF THE
BODY OF WATER. THIS SUCTION IS SO STRONG THAT IT CAN TRAP
ADULTS OR CHILDREN UNDER WATER IF THEY COME IN CLOSE
PROXIMITY TO A DRAIN OR A LOOSE OR BROKEN DRAIN COVER
OR GRATE.

IMPORTANT PUMP WARNING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
For Installation of Electrical Controls at Equipment Pad (ON/OFF
Switches, Timers and Automation Load Center)
Install all electrical controls at equipment pad, such as
on/off switches, timers, and control systems, etc. to
allow the operation (startup, shut-down, or servicing)
of any pump or filter so the user does not place any
portion of his/her body over or near the pump strainer
lid, filter lid or valve closures. This installation should
allow the user enough space to stand clear of the
filter and pump during system start-up, shut down or
servicing of the system filter.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
HAZARDOUS PRESSURE: STAND CLEAR OF
PUMP AND FILTER DURING START UP
Circulation systems operate under high pressure.
When any part of the circulating system (i.e.
locking ring, pump, filter, valves, etc.) is serviced,
air can enter the system and become pressurized.
Before servicing equipment, make note of the filter pressure. Be sure
that all controls are set to ensure the system cannot inadvertently start
during service. Turn off all power to the pump. IMPORTANT: Place filter
manual air relief valve in the open position and wait for all pressure
in the system to be relieved.
Before starting the system, fully open the manual air relief valve and place
all system valves in the “open” position to allow water to flow freely from the
tank and back to the tank. Stand clear of all equipment and start the pump.
IMPORTANT: Do not close filter manual air relief valve until all
pressure has been discharged from the valve and a steady stream
of water appears. Observe filter pressure gauge and be sure it is not
higher than the pre-service condition.
Pressurized air can cause the pump housing cover, filter lid, and valves
to violently separate which can result in severe personal injury or death.
Filter tank lid and strainer cover must be properly secured to prevent
violent separation. Stand clear of all circulation system equipment when
turning on or starting up pump.
General Installation Information
• All work must be performed by a qualified service professional, and
must conform to all national, state, and local codes.
• Install to provide drainage of compartment for electrical components.
• 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.
Pumps improperly sized or installed or used in
applications other than for 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 severe injury or property damage caused by a structural
failure of the pump or other system component.
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.
The Virginia Graeme Baker (VGB) Pool and Spa Safety Act creates
new requirements for owners and operators of commercial swimming
pools and spas.
Commercial pools or spas constructed on or after December 19, 2008,
shall utilize:
(A) A multiple main drain system without isolation capability with suction
outlet covers that meet ASME/ANSI A112.19.8a Suction Fittings for
Use in Swimming Pools, Wading Pools, Spas, and Hot Tubs and either:
(i) A safety vacuum release system (SVRS) meeting ASME/ANSI
A112.19.17 Manufactured Safety Vacuum Release systems (SVRS)
for Residential and Commercial Swimming Pool, Spa, Hot Tub,
and Wading Pool Suction Systems and/or ASTM F2387 Standard
Specification for Manufactured Safety Vacuum Release Systems
(SVRS) for Swimming pools, Spas and Hot Tubs or
(ii) A properly designed and tested suction-limiting vent system or
(iii) An automatic pump shut-off system.
Commercial pools and spas constructed prior to December 19, 2008,
with a single submerged suction outlet shall use a suction outlet cover
that meets ASME/ANSI A112.19.8a and either:
(A) A SVRS meeting ASME/ANSI A112.19.17 and/or ASTM F2387, or
(B) A properly designed and tested suction-limiting vent system, or
(C) An automatic pump shut-off system, or
(D) Disabled submerged outlets, or
(E) Suction outlets shall be reconfigured into return inlets.
A clearly labeled emergency shut-off switch for the
pump must be in an easily accessible, obvious place.
TO MINIMIZE THE RISK OF INJURY DUE TO
SUCTION ENTRAPMENT HAZARD:
• A properly installed and secured ANSI/ASME A112.19.8 approved
anti-entrapment suction cover must be used for each drain.
• Each suction cover must be installed at least three (3’) feet apart,
as measured from the nearest point to nearest point.
• Regularly inspect all covers for cracks, damage and advanced
weathering.
• If a cover becomes loose, cracked, damaged, broken or is missing,
replace with an appropriate certified cover.
• Replace drain covers as necessary. Drain covers deteriorate over
time due to exposure to sunlight and weather.
• Avoid getting hair, limbs or body in close proximity to any suction
cover, pool drain or outlet.
• Disable suction outlets or reconfigure into return inlets.
Mechanical Entrapment: When jewelry, swimsuit, hair decorations,
finger, toe or knuckle is caught in an opening of an outlet or drain cover.
This hazard is present when the drain cover is missing, broken, loose,
cracked, or not properly secured.
NOTE: ALL SUCTION PLUMBING MUST BE INSTALLED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LATEST NATIONAL AND LOCAL CODES,
STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES.
Make sure users know where it is and how to use it in case of emergency.

INSTALLATION
Location
Be sure the pump location meets the following
requirements:
Piping
1. For improved pool plumbing, it is recommended to
use a larger pipe size. When installing the inlet and
outlet fittings (male adaptors), use thread sealant.
2. Piping on the suction side of the pump should be
the same or larger than the return line diameter.
3. Plumbing on the suction side of the pump should
be as short as possible.
4. For most installations Pentair recommends installing
a valve on both the pump suction and return lines
so that the pump can be isolated during routine
maintenance. However, we also recommend that
a valve, elbow or tee installed in the suction line
should be no closer to the front of the pump than
five (5) times the suction line diameter.
Example: A 2 inch pipe requires a 10 inch (25.4
cm) straight run in front of the suction inlet of the
pump. This will help the pump prime faster and last
longer.
Note: DO NOT install 90° elbows directly into the
pump inlet or outlet.
Fittings and Valves
1. Do not install 90° elbows directly into pump inlet.
2. Flooded suction systems should have gate valves
installed on suction and discharge pipes for
maintenance, however, the suction gate valve should
be no closer than five times the suction pipe diameter
as described in this section.
3. Use a check valve in the discharge line when using
this pump for any application where there is significant
height to the plumbing after the pump.
4. Be sure to install check valves when plumbing in
parallel with another pump. This helps prevent reverse
rotation of the impeller and motor.
1. Install the pump as close to the pool or spa as
possible. To reduce friction loss and improve
efficiency, use short, direct suction piping returns.
2. Install a minimum of 5 feet (1.52 meters) from the
inside wall of the pool and spa. Canadian installations
require a minimum of 9.8 feet (3 meters) from pool
water level.
3. Install the pump a minimum of 3 feet (.9 meters)
from the heater outlet.
4. Do not install the pump more than 10 feet (3 meters)
above the water level.
5. Install the pump in a well ventilated location
protected from excessive moisture (i.e., rain gutter
downspouts, sprinklers, etc.)
6. Install the pump with a rear clearance of at least 3
inches (76.2 mm) so that the motor can be removed
easily for maintenance and repair.
Note: Do not install this pump within an outer enclosure
or beneath the skirt of a hot tub or spa unless marked
accordingly.

RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR ELECTROCUTION. This 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 (230 VAC or 115 VAC). If they do not match,
the motor can overheat.
3. Use the correct wire size and type specified by the
current National Electrical Code. 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 green ground
terminal located on the inside of the motor canopy or
access plate, see image. Use the correct wire size
and type specified by the current National Electrical
Code. Be sure the ground wire is connected to an
electrical service ground.
7. Bond the motor to the pool structure in accordance
with the current National Electrical Code. UL requires
use of a solid copper bonding conductor not smaller
than 8 AWG.
Electrical Wiring Installation
Field Wiring Compartment
Ground Screw
Pentair offers 2-Pole 20 Amp GFCI breakers
(P/N PA220GF) which offer 6 milliamp personnel
protection while meeting 2008 to current NEC
Standards for Pool Pumps.
Note: When pump is mounted permanently
within 5 ft. (1.52 meters) of the inside walls of
a swimming pool, you must use a No. 8 AWG
or larger conductor to connect to bonding
conductor lug.
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.
8. Connect the wire from the accessible wire connector
on the motor to all metal parts of the swimming
pool, spa, or hot tub structure and to all electrical
equipment, metal conduit, and metal piping within 5
feet (1.52 meters) of the inside walls of the swimming
pool, spa, or hot tub. For Canada, a 6 AWG or larger
solid copper bonding conductor is required.
9. 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.
10. Connect the pump permanently to a circuit.
Make sure no other lights or appliances are on
the same circuit.

MAINTENANCE
Pump Strainer Basket
The pump strainer basket (or ‘strainer pot’, ‘hair and lint
pot’), is located in front of the volute. Inside the chamber
is the basket which must be kept clean of leaves and
debris at all times. View basket through the ‘See Through
Lid’ to inspect for leaves and debris.
Regardless of the length of time between filter cleaning,
it is most important to visually inspect the basket at least
once a week. A dirty basket will reduce the efficiency of
the filter and heater and also put an abnormal stress on
the pump motor which would result in a costly repair bill.
DO NOT open the strainer pot if pump fails to prime or if pump has been operating without water in the strainer pot. Pumps operated
in these circumstances may experience a build up of vapor pressure and may contain scalding hot water. Opening the pump may
cause serious personal injury. In order to avoid the possibility of personal injury, make sure the suction and discharge valves are
open and strainer pot temperature is cool to touch, then open with extreme caution.
To prevent damage to the pump and for proper operation of the system, clean pump strainer and skimmer baskets regularly.
Cleaning the Pump Strainer Basket
1. Turn off the pump at the circuit breaker.
2. Relieve pressure in the system by allowing the water
to cool.
3. Gently tap the clamp in a counter-clockwise direction
to remove the clamp and lid.
4. Remove debris and rinse out the basket. Replace
the basket if it is cracked.
5. Put the basket back into the housing. Be sure to align
the notch in the bottom of the basket with the rib in
the bottom of the volute.
6. Fill the pump pot and volute up to the inlet port with
water.
7. Clean the cover, O-ring, and sealing surface of the
pump pot. Note: It is important to keep the lid O-ring
clean and well lubricated.
8. Reinstall the lid by placing the lid on the pot. Be sure
the lid O-ring is properly placed. Seat the clamp and
lid on the pump then turn clockwise until the handles
are horizontal.
9. Turn the power “ON” at the house circuit breaker.
Reset the pool time clock to the correct time.
10. Open the High Flow manual air relief valve on top of
the filter.
11. Stand clear of the filter. Start the pump.
12. Bleed air from the filter until a steady stream of water
comes out. Close the High Flow™ Manual Air Relief
Valve.
THIS SYSTEM OPERATES UNDER HIGH
PRESSURE. When any part of the circulating
system (e.g., Lock Ring, Pump, Filter, Valves, etc.)
is serviced, air can enter the system and become
pressurized. Pressurized air can cause the lid to
separate which can result in serious injury, death,
or property damage. To avoid this potential hazard,
follow above instructions.
Strainer Pot Assembly
Winterizing
You are responsible for determining when freezing
conditions may occur. If freezing conditions are
expected, take the following steps to reduce the risk of
freeze damage. Freeze damage is not covered under
warranty.
To prevent freeze damage, follow the procedures below:
1. Shut off electrical power for the pump at the circuit
breaker.
2. Drain the water out of the pump housing by
removing the two thumb-twist drain plugs from the
housing. Store the plugs in the pump basket.
3. Cover the motor to protect it from severe rain, snow
and ice.
Note: Do not wrap motor with plastic or other air tight
materials during winter storage. The motor may be
covered during a storm, winter storage, etc., but never
when operating or expecting operation.
In mild climate areas, when temporary freezing
conditions may occur, run your filtering equipment
all night to prevent freezing.

4. Open the air release valve on the filter, and stand
clear of the filter.
5. Turn on the switch or time clock.
6. When water comes out of the air release valve,
close the valve. The system should now be free of
air and recirculating water to and from the pool.
7. For 2-speed pumps:
• Pump should run on high-speed for priming.
• The pump should not run longer than 8
minutes before priming is achieved.
DO NOT run the pump dry. If the pump is run dry, the mechanical seal will be damaged and the pump will start leaking. If this
occurs, the damaged seal must be replaced. ALWAYS maintain proper water level. If the water level falls below the suction port,
the pump will draw air through the suction port, losing the prime and causing the pump to run dry, resulting in a damaged seal.
Continued operation in this manner could cause a loss of pressure, resulting in damage to the pump case, impeller and seal and
may cause property damage and personal injury.

WHISPERFLO® High Performance Pump Installation and User’s Guide
IMPORTANT PUMP WARNING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety
precautions should always be followed, include the following:
Do not permit children to use this product.
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Connect only to
a branch circuit protected by a ground-fault circuit-
interrupter (GFCI). Contact a qualified electrician if you cannot verify that
the circuit is protected by a GFCI.
This unit must be connected only to a supply circuit
that is protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter
(GFCI). Such a GFCI should be provided by the installer and should be
tested on a routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the test button. The
GFCI should interrupt power. Push the reset button. Power should be
restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, the GFCI is defec-
tive. If the GFCI interrupts power to the pump without the test button
being pushed, a ground current is flowing, indicating the possibility of
an electric shock. Do not use this pump. Disconnect the pump and have
the problem corrected by a qualified service representative before using.
This pump is for use with permanent swimming
pools and may also be used with hot tubs and spas
if so marked. Do not use with storable pools. A permanently-installed
pool is constructed in or on the ground or in a building such that it cannot
be readily disassembled for storage. A storable pool is constructed so
that it is capable of being readily disassembled for storage and
reassembled to its original integrity.
General Warnings
• Never open the inside of the drive motor enclosure. There is a
capacitor bank that holds a 230 VAC charge even when there is no
power to the unit.
• The pump is not submersible.
• The pump is capable of high flow rates; use caution when installing
and programming to limit pumps performance potential with old or
questionable equipment.
• Code requirements for the electrical connection differ from state to
state. Install equipment in accordance with the National Electrical
Code and all applicable local codes and ordinances.
• Before servicing the pump; switch OFF power to the pump by
disconnecting the main circuit to the pump.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) of
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their
safety.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND
WARNINGS CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS BODILY
INJURY OR DEATH. THIS PUMP SHOULD BE INSTALLED AND
SERVICED ONLY BY A QUALIFIED POOL SERVICE PROFESSIONAL.
INSTALLERS, POOL OPERATORS AND OWNERS MUST READ THESE
WARNINGS AND ALL INSTRUCTIONS IN THE OWNER’S MANUAL
BEFORE USING THIS PUMP. THESE WARNINGS AND THE OWNER’S
MANUAL MUST BE LEFT WITH THE POOL OWNER.
SUCTION ENTRAPMENT HAZARD: STAY OFF
THE MAIN DRAIN AND AWAY FROM ALL SUCTION
OUTLETS!
THE USE OF UNAPPROVED COVERS OR ALLOWING USE OF THE
POOL OR SPA WHEN COVERS ARE MISSING, CRACKED OR BROKEN
CAN RESULT IN BODY OR LIMB ENTRAPMENT, HAIR ENTANGLE-
MENT, BODY ENTRAPMENT, EVISCERATION AND/OR DEATH.
The suction at a drain or outlet can cause:
Limb Entrapment: When a limb is sucked or inserted into an opening
resulting in a mechanical bind or swelling. This hazard is present when
a drain cover is missing, broken, loose, cracked or not properly secured.
Hair Entanglement: When the hair tangles or knots in the drain cover,
trapping the swimmer underwater. This hazard is present when the flow
rating of the cover is too small for the pump or pumps.
Body Entrapment: When a portion of the body is held against the drain
cover trapping the swimmer underwater. This hazard is present when the
drain cover is missing, broken or the cover flow rating is not high enough
for the pump or pumps.
Evisceration/Disembowelment: When a person sits on an open pool
(particularly a child wading pool) or spa outlet and suction is applied directly
to the intestines, causing severe intestinal damage. This hazard is present
when the drain cover is missing, loose, cracked, or not properly secured.
F
THIS PUMP PRODUCES HIGH LEVELS OF SUCTION AND CREATES
A STRONG VACUUM AT THE MAIN DRAIN AT THE BOTTOM OF THE
BODY OF WATER. THIS SUCTION IS SO STRONG THAT IT CAN TRAP
ADULTS OR CHILDREN UNDER WATER IF THEY COME IN CLOSE
PROXIMITY TO A DRAIN OR A LOOSE OR BROKEN DRAIN COVER
OR GRATE.

Circulation systems operate under high pressure.
When any part of the circulating system (i.e.
locking ring, pump, filter, valves, etc.) is serviced,
air can enter the system and become pressurized.
Pentair Water Pool and Spa®
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
For Installation of Electrical Controls at Equipment Pad
(ON/OFF Switches, Timers and Automation Load Center)
Install all electrical controls at equipment pad, such as on/off
switches, timers, and control systems, etc. to allow the
operation (startup, shut-down, or servicing) of any pump or
filter so the user does not place any portion of his/her body
over or near the pump strainer lid, filter lid or valve closures.
This installation should allow the user enough space to stand
clear of the filter and pump during system start-up, shut down
or servicing of the system filter.
Before servicing equipment, make note of the filter pressure. Be sure
that all controls are set to ensure the system cannot inadvertently start
during service. Turn off all power to the pump. IMPORTANT: Place filter
manual air relief valve in the open position and wait for all pressure
in the system to be relieved.
Before starting the system, fully open the manual air relief valve and place
all system valves in the “open” position to allow water to flow freely from the
tank and back to the tank. Stand clear of all equipment and start the pump.
IMPORTANT: Do not close filter manual air relief valve until all
pressure has been discharged from the valve and a steady stream
of water appears. Observe filter pressure gauge and be sure it is not
higher than the pre-service condition.
Pressurized air can cause the pump housing cover filter lid and valves
to violently separate which can result in severe personal injury or death.
Filter tank lid and strainer cover must be properly secured to prevent
violent separation. Stand clear of all circulation system equipment when
turning on or starting up pump.
General Installation Information
• All work must be performed by a qualified service professional, and
must conform to all national, state, and local codes.
• Install to provide drainage of compartment for electrical components.
• 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.
Pumps improperly sized or installed or used in
applications other than for 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 severe injury or property damage caused by a structural
failure of the pump or other system component.
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.
The Virginia Graeme Baker (VGB) Pool and Spa Safety Act creates
new requirements for owners and operators of commercial swimming
pools and spas.
Commercial pools or spas constructed on or after December 19, 2008,
shall utilize:
(A) A multiple main drain system without isolation capability with suction
outlet covers that meet ASME/ANSI A112.19.8a Suction Fittings for
Use in Swimming Pools, Wading Pools, Spas, and Hot Tubs and either:
(i) A safety vacuum release system (SVRS) meeting ASME/ANSI
A112.19.17 Manufactured Safety Vacuum Release systems (SVRS)
for Residential and Commercial Swimming Pool, Spa, Hot Tub,
and Wading Pool Suction Systems and/or ASTM F2387 Standard
Specification for Manufactured Safety Vacuum Release Systems
(SVRS) for Swimming pools, Spas and Hot Tubs or
(ii) A properly designed and tested suction-limiting vent system or
(iii) An automatic pump shut-off system.
Commercial pools and spas constructed prior to December 19, 2008,
with a single submerged suction outlet shall use a suction outlet cover
that meets ASME/ANSI A112.19.8a and either:
(A) A SVRS meeting ASME/ANSI A112.19.17 and/or ASTM F2387, or
(B) A properly designed and tested suction-limiting vent system, or
(C) An automatic pump shut-off system, or
(D) Disabled submerged outlets, or
(E) Suction outlets shall be re-configured into return inlets.
A clearly labeled emergency shut-off switch for the
pump must be in an easily accessible, obvious place.
TO MINIMIZE THE RISK OF INJURY DUE TO
SUCTION ENTRAPMENT HAZARD:
• A properly installed and secured ANSI/ASME A112.19.8 approved
anti-entrapment suction cover must be used for each drain.
• Each suction cover must be installed at least three (3’) feet apart,
as measured from the nearest point to nearest point.
• Regularly inspect all covers for cracks, damage and advanced
weathering.
• If a cover becomes loose, cracked, damaged, broken or is missing,
replace with an appropriate certified cover.
• Replace drain covers as necessary. Drain covers deteriorate over
time due to exposure to sunlight and weather.
• Avoid getting hair, limbs or body in close proximity to any suction
cover, pool drain or outlet.
• Disable suction outlets or reconfigure into return inlets.
Make sure users know where it is and how to use it in case of emergency.
Mechanical Entrapment: When jewelry, swimsuit, hair decorations,
finger, toe or knuckle is caught in an opening of an outlet or drain cover.
This hazard is present when the drain cover is missing, broken, loose,
cracked, or not properly secured.
NOTE: ALL SUCTION PLUMBING MUST BE INSTALLED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LATEST NATIONAL AND LOCAL CODES,
STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES.

Location
Be sure the pump location meets the following
requirements:
Piping
1. For improved pool plumbing, it is recommended to
use a larger pipe size. When installing the inlet and
outlet fittings (male adaptors), use thread sealant.
2. Piping on the suction side of the pump should be the
same or larger than the return line diameter.
3. Plumbing on the suction side of the pump should be
as short as possible.
4. It is recommended that a valve, elbow or tee installed
in the suction line should be no closer to the front
of the pump than five (5) times the suction line pipe
diameter
Example:
A 2 inch (50.8 mm) pipe requires a 10 inch (254
mm) straight run in front of the suction inlet of the
pump. This will help the pump prime faster and last
longer.
Fittings and Valves
1. Do not install 90° elbows directly into pump inlet.
2. Flooded suction systems should have gate valves
installed on suction and discharge pipes for
maintenance, however, the suction gate valve should
be no closer than five times the suction pipe diameter
as described in this section.
3. Use a check valve in the discharge line when using
this pump for any application where there is significant
height to the plumbing after the pump.
4. Be sure to install check valves when plumbing in
parallel with another pump. This helps prevent reverse
rotation of the impeller and motor.
1. Install the pump as close to the pool or spa as possible.
To reduce friction loss and improve efficiency, use
short, direct suction piping returns.
2. Install a minimum of 5 feet (1.52 meters) from the
inside wall of the pool and spa. Canadian installations
require a minimum of 9.8 feet (3 meters) from pool
water level.
3. Install the pump a minimum of 3 feet (.9 meters) from
the heater outlet.
4. Do not install the pump more than 10 feet (3 meters)
above the water level.
5. Install the pump in a well ventilated location protected
from excessive moisture (i.e., rain gutter downspouts,
sprinklers, etc.)
6. Install the pump with a rear clearance of at least 3
inches (76.2 mm) so that the motor can be removed
easily for maintenance and repair.
Note: Do not install this pump within an outer enclosure
or beneath the skirt of a hot tub or spa unless marked
accordingly.

WHISPERFLO® High Performance Pump Installation and User’s Guide
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR ELECTROCUTION. This 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 the supply line voltage matches the motor
voltage listed on the motor plate (example 230 VAC
or 115 VAC). If they do not match, permanent motor
damage may occur.
3. Use strain relief and be sure all electrical connections
are clean and tight.
4. Cut wires to the appropriate length so they don’t
overlap or touch when connected to the terminal
board.
5. Permanently ground the motor using the green ground
terminal located on the inside of the motor canopy or
access plate, see Figure 1. Use the correct wire size
and type specified by National Electrical Code. Make
sure the ground wire is connected to an electrical
service ground.
6. Bond the motor to the pool structure in accordance
with the National Electrical Code. Use a solid No. 8
AWG or larger copper conductor. Run a wire from
the external bonding to the pool bonding structure.
7. Connect the wire from the accessible bonding lug on
the motor to all metal parts of the swimming pool, spa,
or hot tub structure and to all electrical equipment,
metal conduit, and metal piping within 5 feet (1.52
meters) of the inside walls of the swimming pool,
spa, or hot tub. For Canada, a 6 AWG or larger solid
copper bonding conductor is required.
8. 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.

Lid’ to inspect for leaves and debris.
Regardless of the length of time between filter cleaning,
it is most important to visually inspect the basket at least
once a week. A dirty basket will reduce the efficiency of
the filter and heater and also put an abnormal stress on
the pump motor which would result in a costly repair bill.
DO NOT open the strainer pot if pump fails to prime or if pump has been operating without water in the strainer pot. Pumps operated
in these circumstances may experience a build up of vapor pressure and may contain scalding hot water. Opening the pump may
cause serious personal injury. In order to avoid the possibility of personal injury, make sure the suction and discharge valves are
open and strainer pot temperature is cool to touch, then open with extreme caution.
To prevent damage to the pump and for proper operation of the system, clean pump strainer and skimmer baskets regularly.
Cleaning the Pump Strainer Basket
1. Turn off the pump at the circuit breaker.
2. Relieve pressure in the system by allowing the water
to cool.
3. Gently tap the clamp in a counter-clockwise direction
to remove the clamp and lid.
4. Remove debris and rinse out the basket. Replace
the basket if it is cracked.
5. Put the basket back into the housing. Be sure to align
the notch in the bottom of the basket with the rib in
the bottom of the volute.
6. Fill the pump pot and volute up to the inlet port with
water.
7. Clean the cover, O-ring, and sealing surface of the
pump pot. Note: It is important to keep the lid O-ring
clean and well lubricated.
8. Reinstall the lid by placing the lid on the pot. Be sure
the lid O-ring is properly placed. Seat the clamp and
lid on the pump then turn clockwise until the handles
are horizontal.
9. Turn the power “ON” at the house circuit breaker.
Reset the pool time clock to the correct time.
10. Open the High Flow manual air relief valve on top of
the filter.
11. Stand clear of the filter. Start the pump.
12. Bleed air from the filter until a steady stream of water
comes out. Close the High Flow™ Manual Air Relief
Valve.
THIS SYSTEM OPERATES UNDER HIGH
PRESSURE. When any part of the circulating
system (e.g., Lock Ring, Pump, Filter, Valves, etc.)
is serviced, air can enter the system and become
pressurized. Pressurized air can cause the lid to
separate which can result in serious injury, death,
or property damage. To avoid this potential hazard,
follow above instructions.

Winterizing
You are responsible for determining when freezing
conditions may occur. If freezing conditions are
expected, take the following steps to reduce the risk
of freeze damage. Freeze damage is not covered
under warranty.
To prevent freeze damage, follow the procedures below:
1. Shut off electrical power for the pump at the circuit
breaker.
2. Drain the water out of the pump housing by removing
the two thumb-twist drain plugs from the housing.
Store the plugs in the pump basket.
3. Cover the motor to protect it from severe rain, snow
and ice.
Note: Do not wrap motor with plastic or other air tight
materials during winter storage. The motor may be
covered during a storm, winter storage, etc., but never
when operating or expecting operation.
In mild climate areas, when temporary freezing
conditions may occur, run your filtering equipment
all night to prevent freezing.

Care of Electric Motor
Protect from heat
1. Shade the motor from the sun.
2. Any enclosure must be well ventilated to prevent
overheating.
3. Provide ample cross ventilation.
Protect against dirt
1. Protect from any foreign matter or splashing water.
2. Do not store (or spill) chemicals on or near the motor.
3. Protect from any foreign matter or splashing water.
4. Avoid sweeping or stirring up dust near the motor
while it is operating.
5. If a motor has been damaged by dirt it voids the
motor warranty.
6. Clean the lid and clamp, O-ring, and sealing surface
of the pump pot.
Protect against moisture
1. Protect from splashing or sprayed water.
2. Protect from extreme weather.
3. Protect from any foreign matter or splashing water.
4. If a motor has become wet - let it dry before operating.
Do not allow the pump to operate if it has been flooded.
5. If a motor has been damaged by water it voids the
motor warranty.
SERVICING
Always disconnect power to the pump at the circuit breaker and disconnect the communication cable before servicing the pump.
Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury to service people, users or others due to electric shock. Read all servicing
instructions before working on the pump.
DO NOT open the strainer pot if pump fails to prime or if pump has been operating without water in the strainer pot. Pumps operated
in these circumstances may experience a build up of vapor pressure and may contain scalding hot water. Opening the pump may
cause serious personal injury. In order to avoid the possibility of personal injury, make sure the suction and discharge valves are
open and strainer pot temperature is cool to touch, then open with extreme caution.
Be sure not to scratch or mar the polished shaft seal faces; seal will leak if faces are damaged. The polished and lapped faces of
the seal could be damaged if not handled with care.
Note: When replacing the motor, be certain that the
motor support is correctly positioned to support the
size of motor being installed.
Pump Disassembly
All moving parts are located in the rear sub-assembly
of this pump.
Tools required:
• 3/32 inch Allen head wrench
• 1/2 inch open end wrench
• 9/16 inch open end wrench
• Flat blade screwdriver
• #2 Phillips scewdriver
To remove and repair the motor subassembly, follow the
steps below:
1. Turn off the pump circuit breaker at the main panel.
2. Drain the pump by removing the drain plugs.
3. Remove the 6 bolts that hold the main pump body
(strainer pot/volute) to the rear sub-assembly.
4. GENTLY pull the two pump halves apart, removing
the rear sub-assembly.
5. Use a 3/32 inch Allen head wrench to loosen the
two holding screws located on the diffuser.
6. Hold the impeller securely in place and remove
the impeller lock screw by using a #2 Phillips
screwdriver. The screw is a left-handed thread and
loosens in a clockwise direction.
7. Remove the shaft cap located at the back of the
motor and hold the shaft secure with a ½ inch
open-end wrench.
8. To unscrew the impeller from the shaft, twist the
impeller counterclockwise.
9. Remove the four bolts from the seal plate to the
motor, using a 9/16 inch wrench.
Shaft Seal Replacement
The Shaft Seal consists primarily of two parts, a rotating
member and a ceramic seal.
The pump requires little or no service other than
reasonable care, however, a Shaft Seal may occasionally
become damaged and must be replaced.
Note: The polished and lapped faces of the seal could
be damaged if not handled with care.

Pump Reassembly
1. When installing the replacement shaft seal, use
silicone sealant on the metal portion before
pressing into the seal plate, being careful to keep
off of the seal face. Ensure the seal is fully seated
and allow 24 hours for sealant to cure. (Complete
seal plate w/seal replacement kit available, P/N
350201/350101.)
2. Before installing the ceramic section of the seal into
the impeller, be sure the impeller is clean. Use a
light density soap and water to seal the seal. Press
the seal into the impeller with your thumbs and wipe
off the ceramic and carbon faces with a clean cloth.
3. Remount the seal plate to the motor by installing
bolts in an X pattern and tightening to 70 in-lbs.
4. Clean the motor shaft thread and the impeller
insert, then screw the impeller onto the motor shaft.
5. Screw in the impeller lock screw (counter-clockwise
and tighten to 25 in-lbs. while holding the motor
shaft with wrench).
6. Remount the diffuser onto the seal plate. Make
sure the plastic pins and holding screw inserts are
aligned.
7. Grease the diffuser O-ring and seal plate gasket.
8. Grease the bolt threads, assemble the motor sub-
assembly to the strainer pot-pump body by using
the two through bolts for proper alignment. Do not
tighten the through bolts until all 6 bolts are in place
and finger tightened. Torque in a cross pattern to
110 in-lbs.
9. Fill the pump with water.
10. Reinstall the pump lid and plastic clamp;
see the next section, ‘Restart Instructions’.
11. Reprime the system.
Restart Instructions
If pump is installed below the water level of the pool,
close return and suction lines prior to opening hair and
lint pot on pump. Make sure to re-open valves prior to
operating.
Priming the Pump
The pump strainer pot must be filled with water before
the pump is initially started. Follow these steps to
prime the pump:
1. Remove the pump lid plastic clamp. Remove the
pump lid.
2. Fill the pump strainer pot with water.
3. Reassemble the pump cover and plastic clamp onto
the strainer pot. The pump is now ready to prime.
4. Open the air release valve on the filter, and stand
clear of the filter.
5. Turn on the switch or time clock.
6. When water comes out of the air release valve,
close the valve. The system should now be free of
air and recirculating water to and from the pool.
7. For 2-speed pumps:
• Pump should run on high-speed for priming.
• The pump should not run longer than 8 minutes
before priming is achieved.
DO NOT run the pump dry. If the pump is run dry, the mechanical seal will be damaged and the pump will start leaking. If this
occurs, the damaged seal must be replaced. ALWAYS maintain proper water level. If the water level falls below the suction port,
the pump will draw air through the suction port, losing the prime and causing the pump to run dry, resulting in a damaged seal.
Continued operation in this manner could cause a loss of pressure, resulting in damage to the pump case, impeller and seal and
may cause property damage and personal injury.

GUARDE ESTAS INSTRUCCIONES
La bomba puede producir niveles altos de succión dentro del
lado de succión del sistema de plomería.
Estos altos niveles de succión pueden implicar un riesgo si una persona se acerca
demasiado a los orificios de succión. Este alto nivel de vacío puede causar daños
severos en personas, quienes también podrían quedar atrapadas y ahogarse. Es de
primordial importancia que el sistema de plomería sea instalado de acuerdo a los más
recientes códigos nacionales y locales para las aplicaciones de piscinas.
Las bombas de tamaño incorrecto o instaladas de manera
incorrecta o utilizadas en aplicaciones diferentes a aquellas
para las cuales la bomba fue diseñada pueden tener como resultado daños personales
severos o la muerte. Estos riesgos incluyen pero no se limitan a choque eléctrico,
incendio, inundación, succión, atrapamiento, lesiones graves o daño a la propiedad
causados por una falla estructural de la bomba u otro componente del sistema.
Información general para la instalación
• La instalación y el servicio deben ser efectuados por un profesional de servicio calificado,
y deben cumplir con todos los códigos nacionales, estatales y locales.
• En la instalación se debe colocar un drenaje en el compartimiento para los componentes
eléctricos.
• Estas instrucciones contienen información para una variedad de modelos de bombas y
por lo tanto algunas instrucciones pueden no aplicarse a un modelo específico. Todos
los modelos deben ser utilizados en aplicaciones de piscinas. La bomba funcionará
correctamente sólo si tiene el tamaño adecuado para la aplicación específica y si está
correctamente instalada.
Antes de realizar el servicio al equipo, tome nota de la presión del filtro. Asegúrese de
que se realicen todos los controles para asegurar que el sistema no arranque sin aviso
durante el servicio técnico. Desconecte la energía a la bomba. IMPORTANTE: Coloque
la válvula de alivio de aire manual del filtro en posición abierta y espere que se
libere la presión del sistema.
Antes de iniciar el sistema, abra totalmente la válvula de liberación de aire manual y
ubique todas las válvulas del sistema en posición "abierto" para permitir que el agua
fluya libremente desde y hacia el tanque. Aléjese de los equipos y arranque la bomba.
IMPORTANTE: No cierre la válvula de alivio de aire manual del filtro hasta que se
haya descargado la totalidad de la presión de la válvula y aparezca un chorro de
agua constante. Observe el indicador de presión del filtro y asegúrese de que no es más
alto que el estado anterior al servicio.
PRESIÓN PELIGROSA: MANTÉNGASE ALEJADO
DE LA BOMBA Y FILTRO DURANTE EL ARRANQUE
Los sistemas de circulación operan bajo alta presión. Cuando
cualquier parte del sistema de circulación (es decir anillo de
seguridad, bomba, filtro y válvulas, etc) está siendo controlado
por el servicio técnico, es posible que ingrese aire al sistema y
que éste se presurice.
El aire presurizado puede provocar que las válvulas y la tapa del filtro de la cubierta
de la caja de la bomba se separen violentamente lo cual puede tener como resultado
lesiones graves o la muerte. La tapa del tanque del filtro y la cubierta del filtro deben estar
correctamente aseguradas para evitar una separación violenta. Manténgase alejado del
equipo del sistema de circulación cuando encienda o arranque la bomba.
Instale todos los controles eléctricos en la superficie de
apoyo del equipo, como interruptores de encendido/
apagado y sistemas de control, etc. para permitir el
funcionamiento (arranque, apagado o servicio) de cualquier
bomba o filtro de manera que el usuario no coloque
ninguna porción de su cuerpo por encima o cerca de la
tapa del filtro de la bomba, la tapa del filtro o el cierre de
la válvula. Esta instalación debería permitirle al usuario
utilizar espacio suficiente para permanecer alejado del
filtro y la bomba durante el arranque, apagado o servicio
del filtro del sistema.
Para la instalación de controles eléctricos en la superficie de apoyo del equipo

Sólo personal de servicio calificado debe instalar la bomba WhisperFlo®. Consulte la sección “Instrucciones de seguridad
y advertencias de la bomba” en las páginas 11 a 12 para obtener información adicional sobre pautas para la instalación
y la seguridad.
INSTALACIÓN
Tuberías
1. P
ara una mejor plomería en la piscina, se recomienda
utilizar un tamaño de tubería más grande. Cuando
instale los accesorios para entradas y salidas
(adaptadores macho), use un sellador de roscas.
2. Utilice tamaños de caños más grandes para una mejor
tubería. El diámetro de empalme debe ser el mismo o
mayor que el diámetro de la línea de retorno.
3. Las tuberías en el lado de succión de la bomba deben
ser lo más cortas posibles.
4. Se recomienda una válvula, codo o pieza en forma de
T en la línea de succión no debería estar más cerca
al frente de la bomba que cinco veces el diámetro de
la tubería de la línea de succión (es decir, una tubería
de 2 pulgadas (5,1 cm) necesita un espacio recto
enfrente de la entrada de succión de la bomba de 10
pulgadas (254 mm)). Esto ayudará a que el cebado
de la bomba sea más rápido y dure por más tiempo.
Conexiones y Válvulas
1. No instale codos de 90° directamente en la entrada
de la bomba.
2. L
os sistemas de succión deberían tener válvulas de
compuertas instaladas en las tuberías de succión y
descarga para mantenimiento; sin embargo, la válvula
de compuerta de succión no debe estar más cerca
que cinco veces el diámetro de la tubería de succión
como se describe en el párrafo anterior.
3. Utilice una válvula de retención en la línea de
descarga al utilizar esta bomba para cualquier
aplicación donde hay altura significativa de la tubería
después de la bomba.
4. Asegúrese de instalar las válvulas de comprobación
cuando nivela en paralelo con otra bomba. Esto ayuda
a evitar la rotación inversa del propulsor y el motor.
Ubicación
1. Instale la bomba lo más cerca posible a la piscina o
spa. Para reducir la pérdida de fricción y mejorar la
eficacia, use un mecanismo de succión corta y directa
y retornos de tuberías.
2. Realice la instalación a un mínimo de 5 pies (1,52 m.)
de la pared interior de la piscina y el spa. En Canadá,
las instalaciones deben estar como mínimo a una
distancia de 9,8 pies (3 metros) del agua de la piscina.
3. Instale la bomba a un mínimo de 3 pies (0,9 metros)
de la salida del calefactor.
4. No instale la bomba a más de 10 pies (2,44 m) por
encima del nivel del agua.
5. Instale la bomba en un área cubierta y bien ventilada
para protegerla de la humedad excesiva (es decir,
lluvia, sistemas de aspersión, etc.)
6. Para jacuzzis y spas, no instale dentro de una caja
exterior o debajo de la base de un jacuzzi o spa.
7. Instale la bomba con una distancia de separación
trasera de al menos 3 pulgadas (76,2 mm) de
manera que el motor pueda ser extraído fácilmente
cuando debe ser reparado y cuando se realice el
mantenimiento.

MANTENIMIENTO
Canastilla del filtro de la bomba
La canastilla del filtro (o "depósito del filtro") se encuentra
enfrente del alojamiento de la bomba. La canastilla del
filtro debe mantenerse limpia y sin suciedad. Inspeccione
la canastilla a través de la tapa en la parte superior del
alojamiento.
Asegúrese de inspeccionar visualmente la canastilla del
filtro cada 1 a 4 semanas. Las canastillas del filtro sucias
reducen la eficiencia del filtro y del calefactor y ejercen
una presión anormal sobre el motor de la bomba. La
acumulación de bacterias puede ensuciar la tapa.
Limpieza de la canastilla del filtro de la bomba
1. Apague la bomba en el interruptor de circuito.
2. Libere presión en el sistema.
3. Gire la tapa y abrazadera en el sentido contrario a las
agujas del reloj y retírelas de la bomba.
4. Retire los residuos y limpie la canastilla. Reemplace la
canastilla si está rajada.
5. Vuelva a colocar la canastilla en la caja. Asegúrese de
alinear la perforación en la parte inferior de la canastilla
con el acanalado en la parte inferior del alojamiento.
6. Llene el depósito y el alojamiento de la bomba hasta
el puerto de entrada con agua.
7. Limpie la tapa y la abrazadera, el anillo tórico y la
superficie de sellado del depósito de la bomba.
Nota: Es importante que mantenga el anillo tórico de
la tapa limpio y bien lubricado.
8. Vuelva a instalar la tapa colocando la abrazadera y la
tapa en el depósito. Asegúrese de que el anillo tórico
de la tapa esté bien colocado.
Coloque la abrazadera y la tapa sobre la bomba, luego
gire en sentido de las agujas del reloj hasta que las
manijas del anillo de seguridad estén horizontales.
9. Encienda la bomba en el interruptor de circuito.
10. Abra la válvula de alivio de aire manual en la parte
superior del filtro. Aléjese del filtro.
11. Espere hasta que se libere toda la presión. Ponga en
marcha la bomba.
12. Purgue el aire del filtro hasta que un flujo constante
de agua salga de la válvula de alivio de aire del filtro.
Cierre la válvula de alivio de aire manual.
NO abra el depósito del filtro si el cebado de la bomba falla o si la bomba ha estado funcionando sin agua en el depósito del filtro.
Las bombas que funcionan en estas circunstancias pueden experimentar una acumulación de presión de vapor y pueden contener
agua caliente escaldada. Si abre la bomba puede resultar herido de gravedad. Para evitar la posibilidad de lesiones personales,
asegúrese de que las válvulas de succión y descarga estén abiertas y la temperatura del depósito del filtro esté fría para el tacto,
luego ábrala con extrema precaución.
Para evitar el daño de la bomba y para un adecuado funcionamiento del sistema, limpie el filtro de la bomba y las canastillas de
los desnatadores con regularidad.

7. Quite la tapa del eje que se encuentra en la parte
de atrás del motor y mantenga el eje seguro con
una llave de boca de 1/2 pulgada (15.24 cm).
8. Para destornillar el impulsor del eje, déle vuelta al
impulsor en el sentido opuesto de las agujas del
reloj.
9. Quite los cuatro pernos de la placa de sello al
motor, usando una llave de 9/16 pulgada (1.429
cm).
El sello de eje
El sello de eje consiste principalmente en dos piezas, un
miembro rotativo y un sello cerámico. La bomba requiere
de poco o de ningún mantenimiento además de atención
razonable, sin embargo, podría ser que de vez en cuando
se dañe el sello de eje y tenga que reemplazarse.
Nota: Las caras pulidas y labradas del sello se pueden
dañar si no se usa con cuidado.
Siempre desconecte la energía hacia la bomba en el interruptor de circuito antes de realizar el servicio a la bomba. Si no se hace
esto, las personas que realizan el servicio, los usuarios u otras personas pueden resultar muertas o con heridas de gravedad debido
al electrochoque. Lea todas las instrucciones de servicio antes de comenzar a trabajar en la bomba.
NO abra el depósito del filtro si el cebado de la bomba falla o si la bomba ha estado funcionando sin agua en el depósito del filtro.
Las bombas que funcionan en estas circunstancias pueden experimentar una acumulación de presión de vapor y pueden contener
agua caliente escaldada. Si abre la bomba puede resultar herido de gravedad. Para evitar la posibilidad de lesiones personales,
asegúrese de que las válvulas de succión y descarga estén abiertas y la temperatura del depósito del filtro esté fría para el tacto,
luego ábrala con extrema precaución.
Asegúrese de no rayar o marcar las caras pulidas del sello del eje; el sello perderá si las caras se encuentran dañadas. Las caras
pulidas y recubiertas del sello se podrían dañar si no son tratadas con cuidado.

Armar la bomba de nuevo
1. Cuando este instalando el sello mecánico de
la flecha, use un sellador de silicón en la parte
metálica de la flecha antes de presionar contra
la placa de sello, y teniendo mucho cuidado de
mantener el sellador de silicón alejado del la cara
de sellado de la bomba. Asegúrese que el sello se
encuentre completamente asentado y deje pasar
24 horas para permitir que el sellador seque. (Kid
de remplazo completo con la placa de sello y el sello
mecánico esta disponible, P/N 350201/350101.)
2. Antes de instalar la sección cerámica del sello en
el impulsor, asegúrese que el impulsor está limpio.
Use un jabón de poca densidad y agua para sellar
el sello. Empuje el sello en el impulsor con los
dedos gordos y pase un paño para limpiar las caras
cerámicas y de carbón.
3. Reinstalar de nuevo la placa de sello al motor.
Ajustando los Pernos, 3/8-16 x 7/8 (2,22 cm)
de cabeza hexagonal, a un torque de 7,91 Nm
de manera cruzada (apretar uno de los pernos
y después apretar el perno opuesto y repita la
misma secuencia hasta que todos los pernos estén
ajustados al torque requerido).
4. Limpie la rosca de la flecha y la rosca del impulsor,
después enrosque el impulsor a la flecha del motor.
5. Atornille el tornillo de cierre del impulsor (en
el sentido opuesto de las agujas del reloj para
apretar).
6. Monte de nuevo el difusor en la placa de sello.
Asegúrese que las clavijas plásticas y las
inserciones de tornillos de mantener están alineado.
7. Engrase el anillo en O del difusor y empaque de
placa de sello o el anillo en O antes de armar de
nuevo.
8. Engrase las roscas de perno, arme el montaje de
abajo del motor al cuerpo de olla de colar y bomba al
usar los dos pernos que corren a través para tener
alineamiento adecuado. Colocar los Pernos, 3/8
-16 x 2 de cabeza hexagonal 18-8 acero inoxidable
(se requieren 2) a través de la placa de sellado y
la voluta y no los ajuste hasta que los Pernos de
3/8, 16 x 1-1/4 (3,18 cm) cabeza hexagonal 18-8
acero inoxidable (se requieren 4) estén ajustados
a mano. Ajustar todos los pernos a un torque de
12,43 Nm, de manera cruzada.
9. Llene la bomba con agua.
10. Instale de nuevo la tapa de bomba y abrazadera
plástica; vea INSTRUCCIONES PARA ENCENDER
DE NUEVO.
11. Prepare de nuevo el sistema.
Instrucciones para encender de nuevo
Si se instala la bomba debajo del nivel de agua en la
piscina, cierre las líneas de regreso y de aspiración antes
de abrir la olla de pelo y pelusa en la bomba. Asegúrese
de abrir de nuevo las válvulas antes de usar.
Imprimar la bomba
La olla de colador de bomba tiene que llenarse con agua
antes de que se empiece la bomba incialmente. Siga
estos pasos para imprimar la bomba.
1. Quite la abrazadera plástica de la tapa de la bomba.
Quite la tapa de la bomba.
2. Llene la olla de colador de bomba con agua.
3. Arme de nuevo el cubierto de bomba y abrazadera
plástica en la olla de colador. Ahora la bomba está
lista para imprimar.
4. Abra válvula de escape de aire en el filtro y
manténgase a distancia del filtro.
5. Encienda el interruptor o reloj.
6. Cuando agua sale de la válvula de escape de aire,
cierre la válvula. Este sistema ahora debe estar
libre de aire y circulando agua de nuevo a la piscina
y de vuelta.
7. Para bomba de 2 velocidades:
8. La bomba debe funcionar en alta velocidad para
imprimar.
9. La bomba no debe funcionar por más de 8 minutos
antes de que se logre imprimar.
NO haga funcionar la bomba en seco. Si hace funcionar la bomba en seco, el sello mecánico se dañará y la bomba comenzará a perder. Si esto
ocurre, deberá cambiar el sello dañado. SIEMPRE mantenga el nivel de agua adecuado. Si el nivel de agua cae por debajo del puerto de succión,
la bomba extraerá aire del puerto de succión, perderá cebado y funcionará en seco, lo que dañará el sello. El funcionamiento continuo en este
estado puede causar una pérdida de presión, lo que dañará la caja de la bomba, el propulsor y sello y puede provocar la pérdida de propiedad y
lesiones personales.
