CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS DDD/DDS SERIES

OWNER'S MANUAL

READ AND FOLLOW SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

This is the safety alert symbol. When you see this symbol on your pump or in this manual, look

for one of the following signal words and be alert to the potential for personal injury:

D A N G E R warns about hazards that will cause serious personal injury, death or major property damage if ignored.

WARNING warns about hazards that can cause serious personal injury, death or major property damage if ignored.

CAUTION warns about hazards that will or can cause minor personal injury or major property damage if ignored.

The label NOTICE indicates special instructions, which are important but not related to hazards.

BEFORE INSTALLING PUMP, BE SURE TO READ THIS OWNER’S MANUAL CAREFULLY.

Mechanical shaft seals do not run dry. Fill pump with water before starting or pump will be damaged. The motor on this pump is guaranteed by the manufacturer and in event of failure it must be returned to an authorized service station for repairs. Motor warranty is void if repairs aren’t made by an authorized repair station.

WA R N I N G

Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn, or cause death.

Ground pump before connecting to power supply. Disconnect power before working on pump, motor

or tank.

Carefully read and follow all safety instructions in this manual and on pump.

Keep safety labels in good condition.

Replace missing or damaged safety labels.

Wire motor for correct voltage. See “Electrical”

section of this manual and motor nameplate.

Ground motor before connecting to power supply.

Suction Piping

The pump should be installed as close as possible to the source of water in order to minimize the length of suction piping. The suction pipe should never be smaller in diameter than the suction opening of the pump. It must be free of all leaks, and should slope continuously upward from the water source to the pump, with no high spots, which can trap air. A foot valve must be used to maintain the prime.

General Piping Instructions

In order to avoid strain on the pump, both the suction and discharge piping should be properly supported, and a pipe wrench should be put on the suction and discharge bosses when installing pipes in them.

Meet National Electrical Code, Canadian Electrical Code, and local codes for all wiring.

Follow wiring instructions in this manual when connecting motor to power lines.

Electrical Connections

Remove the end cover (canopy) from the motor, and using the diagram on top of the motor, make sure it is connected for the correct voltage.
