Note: Rotation should be clockwise when observed from
the top of the pump. This can be checked by noting which
direction the pump torque is upon initial starting. A prop-
erly rotating pump will torque counterclockwise upon start.
The control cable has 5 conductors: black, white, red,
yellow and green. White and black connect to the heat
sensor terminals; red and yellow connect to the seal
failure leads; and the green connects to the ground in the
control panel (figure 4)
Note: Each cable has a green ground wire and must be
properly grounded per the National Electric Code and
local codes.
Electrical Motor Controls: All electrical controls & motor
starting equipment should be as specified in these instructions.
PRE-OPERATION CHECK VOLTAGE AND PHASE
Before operating pump, check to make sure that voltage
and phase information stamped on the pump's identifica-
tion plate matches the available power.
CHECK PUMP ROTATION
Before putting pump into service for the first time, the mo-
tor rotation must be checked. Improper motor rotation can
result in poor pump performance and can damage the motor
and/or pump.

Receiving and Installation
IDENTIFICATION PLATE
Note the numbers on the pumps identification plate and
record at the end of this manual for future reference.
Electrical Connections
Always rely upon a Certified Electrician for installation.
Thermal Protection
The normally closed (N/C) over temperature sensor is
embedded in the motor windings and will detect exces-
sive
heat in the event an overload condition occurs.
The thermal sensor will trip when the windings become
too hot and will automatically reset when the pump
motor cools to a safe temperature. It is recommended
that the thermal sensor be connected in series to an
alarm
device to alert that an over temperature condition has
occurred (3 phase only).
In the event of an over temperature, the source of this
condition should be determined and repaired immediately.
Thermal protection shall not be used as a motor overload
device.
