Installation – Shallow Well Pump 4

Replacing An Old Pump

Hazardous voltage. Disconnect power to pump before

working on pump or motor.

Step 1. Drain and remove the old pump. Check the old pipe for scale, lime,

rust, etc., and replace it if necessary.

Step 2. Install the pump in the system. Make sure that all pipe joints in the

suction pipe are air-tight as well as water tight. If the suction pipe

can suck air, the pump will not be able to pull water from the well.

Step 3. Adjust the pump mounting height so that the plumbing connections

do not put a strain on the pump body. Support the pipe so that the

pump body does not take the weight of piping or fittings.

You have just completed the well plumbing for your new pump.

Please go to Page 9 for electrical connections.

Well Point (Driven Point) Installation (Figure 1)

Step 1. Drive the well, using “drive couplings” and a “drive cap”. “Drive

fittings” are threaded all the way through and allow the pipe ends

to butt against each other so that the driving force of the maul is

carried by the pipe and not by the threads. The ordinary fittings

found in hardware stores are not threaded all the way through

the fitting and can collapse under impact. “Drive fittings” are

also smoother than standard plumbing fittings, making ground

penetration easier.

Step 2. Mount the pump as close to the well as possible.

Step 3. Use the fewest possible fittings (especially elbows) when connecting

the pipe from the well point to the pump suction port. The suction

pipe should be at least as large as the suction port on the pump

(include a check valve if your pump is not equipped with one – see

Figure 1). Support the pipe so that there are no dips or sags in the

pipe, so it doesn’t strain the pump body, and so that it slopes slightly

upward from the well to the pump (high spots can cause air pockets

which can air lock the pump). Seal the threaded pipe joints with

1Teflon™ tape or Teflon™ based pipe joint compound approved for

use on PVC. Joints must be air- and water-tight. If the suction pipe

can suck air, the pump cannot pull water from the well. If one well

point does not supply enough water, consider connecting two or

three well points to one suction pipe.

or Larger Casing

(Figure 2)

Step 1. Mount the pump as close to the well as possible.

Step 2. Assemble the foot valve, strainer, and well pipe (see Figure 2). Make

sure that the foot valve works freely.

Step 3. Lower the pipe into the well until the strainer is five feet above the

bottom of the well. It should also be at least 10 feet below the well’s

water level while the pump is running in order to prevent the pump

from sucking air. Install a sanitary well seal.

Step 4. Install a priming tee, priming plug, and suction pipe to the pump

(see Figure 2). Connect the pipe from the well to the pump suction

port, using the fewest possible fittings – especially elbows – as

fittings increase friction in the pipe (however, include a foot valve

– see Figure 2). The suction pipe should be at least as large as the

suction port on the pump. Support the pipe so that there are no

dips or sags in the pipe, so it doesn’t strain the pump body, and

so that it slopes slightly upward from the well to the pump (high

spots can cause air pockets which can air lock the pump). Seal the

suction pipe joints with Teflon™ tape or a Teflon™ based pipe joint

compound. Joints must be air- and water-tight.

If the suction pipe can suck air, the pump cannot pull water from

the well.

Please go to Page 9 for electrical connections.

For parts or assistance, call Flotec Customer Service at 1-800-365-6832

Sealing Pipe Joints

Use only Teflon™ tape or Teflon™ based joint compounds for

making all threaded connections to the pump itself. Do not

use pipe joint compounds on plastic pumps: they can react

with the plastic in pump components. Make sure that all pipe

joints in the suction pipe are air tight as well as water tight. If

the suction pipe can suck air, the pump will not be able to pull

water from the well.

Replacing an Existing Convertible Pump 6

Deep Well

Hazardous voltage. Disconnect power to pump before working

on pump or motor.

Step 1. Drain and remove the old pump. Check pipe for scale, lime, rust,

etc., and replace it if necessary.

Step 2. Install the pressure regulator and pressure gauge in the pump body

(see Figure 4).

NOTICE: Your old ejector (in the well) may not be properly matched

to your new pump. If the pump does not perform

properly, we recommend that you install ejector kit FP520-100-P2,

included with the pump.

Step 3. Install the pump and tank in the system. Make sure that all pipe

joints in the suction pipe are air-tight as well as water tight. If the

suction pipe can suck air, the pump will not be able to pull water

from the well.

Step 4. Adjust the pump mounting height so that the plumbing connections

do not put a strain on the pump body. Support the pipe so that the

pump body does not take the weight of piping or fittings.

Step 5. Run piping from the discharge tee in the tank flange to the household

piping. The discharge piping must be at least as large as the tank

tee. Install a relief valve in the discharge pipe capable of passing the

entire pump flow at 75 psi. Run a pipe from the relief valve to a floor

drain or some other convenient place to carry off the water.

You have just completed the well plumbing for your new pump/tank

system. Please go to Page 9 for electrical connections.

Shallow Well–(Convertible–See Page 4 for Shallow

Step 2. Assemble the ejector kit. See Figure 9. Follow the instructions

included with the kit in order to match the nozzle and venturi to

your well conditions.

Step 3. Mount the pump as close to the well as possible.

Step 4. Connect two pipes (1” drive, 1-1/4” suction) to the ejector and

lower the ejector into the well until it is five feet from the bottom.

It should also be at least 10 feet below the well’s water level while

the pump is running in order to prevent the pump from sucking air.

Step 5. Install a sanitary well seal and connect the ejector piping to the

pump. Use steel nipples through the well seal with flexible poly

pipe to avoid crushing the plastic pipe when tightening the seal.

Step 6. Support the pipe so that there are no dips or sags in the pipe, so it

doesn’t strain the pump body, and so that it slopes slightly upward

from the well to the pump (high spots can cause air pockets which

the ground wire) specified in the wiring chart. If possible, connect the

pump to a separate branch circuit with no other appliances on it.

Explosion hazard. Do not ground to a gas supply line.

Wiring Connections

Fire hazard. Incorrect voltage can cause a fire or seriously

damage the motor and voids the warranty. The supply voltage must be

within ±10% of the motor nameplate voltage.

NOTICE: The motor is factory wired for 115 volts. If necessary, reconnect

the motor for 230 volts, as shown in Figures 12A, 12B, and 12C. Do not

attempt to operate the pump as it comes from the factory on 230 volts.

Install, ground, wire, and maintain your pump in compliance with the

National Electrical Code (NEC) or the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC), as

applicable, and with all local codes and ordinances that apply. Consult

your local building inspector for code information.

Connection Procedure:

Step 1. Connect the ground wire first as shown in Figure 11. The ground

wire must be a solid copper wire at least as large as the power

supply wires.

Step 2. There must be a solid metal connection between the pressure

switch and the motor for motor grounding protection. If the pressure

switch is not connected to the motor, connect the green ground

screw in the switch to the green ground screw under the motor end

cover. Use a solid copper wire at least as large as the power supply

wires.

Step 3. Connect the ground wire to a grounded lead in a service panel,

to a metal underground water pipe, to a metal well casing at least

ten feet (3M) long, or to a ground electrode provided by the power

company or the hydro authority.

Step 4. Connect the power supply wires to the pressure switch as shown in

Figure 11.

Preparing to Start the Deep Well Pump 11

Never run pump dry. Running pump without water may cause

pump to overheat, damaging seal and possibly causing burns to persons

handling pump. Fill pump with water before starting.

Never run pump against closed discharge. To do so can boil

water inside pump, causing hazardous pressure in unit, risk of explosion

and possibly scalding persons handling pump.

Step 1. Open the pressure regulator as far as possible without backing it

out of the regulator body. Then remove the regulator from the pump

and fill the pump, fill all piping between the pump and the well,

and make sure that all piping in the well is full. If you have also

installed a priming tee in the suction piping, remove the plug from

the tee and fill the suction piping (see Figure 13).

Step 2. Replace all fill plugs and close the pressure regulator completely

(Figure 14).

Step 3. Power on! Start the pump and watch the pressure gauge. The

pressure should build rapidly to about 50 PSI as the pump primes.

Step 4. After 2 or 3 minutes, the gauge should show pressure. If not, stop

the pump, remove the fill plugs, reopen the control valve, and refill

the pump and piping. You may have to repeat this two or three times

in order to get all the trapped air out of the piping. Don’t forget to

close the control valve each time before you start the pump.

Step 5. When pressure has built up and stabilized at about 50 PSI, slowly

open the control valve (see Figure 15) and let the pressure drop

until the pressure gauge needle starts to flutter or drops to 0. When

the needle flutters or drops, close the valve just enough to stop the

flutter or bring the needle back to a stable pressure (see Figure 15).

Your pump is now operating at its most efficient point.

Step 6. After the pump has built up pressure in the system and shut off,

check the pressure switch operation by opening a faucet or two

and running enough water out to bleed off pressure until the pump

starts. The pump should start when pressure drops to 30 PSI and

stop when pressure reaches 50 PSI. Run the pump through one or

two complete cycles to verify correct operation. This will also help

clean the system of dirt and scale dislodged during installation.

Congratulations on a successful installation.

If you were unsuccessful, please refer to the Troubleshooting section or call

our customer service technical staff.

Preparing to Start the Shallow Well Pump 12

Never run pump dry. Running pump without water may cause

pump to overheat, damaging seal and possibly causing burns to persons

handling pump. Fill pump with water before starting.

Never run pump against closed discharge. To do so can boil

water inside pump, causing hazardous pressure in unit, risk of explosion

and possibly scalding persons handling pump.

Step 1. Remove the priming plug from the pump and fill the pump, fill

all piping between the pump and the well, and make sure that all

piping in the well is full (see Figure 16). If you have also installed a

priming tee in the suction piping, remove the plug from the tee and

fill the suction piping.

Step 2. Replace all fill plugs.

Step 3. Power on! Start the pump. The pump should pump water in two or

three minutes.

Step 4. If you don’t have water after 2 or 3 minutes, stop the pump and

remove the fill plugs. Refill the pump and piping. You may have to

repeat this two or three times in order to get all the trapped air out

of the piping.

Step 5. After the pump has built up pressure in the system and shut off,

Pump in new installation did not pick up

prime through:

1. Improper priming

2. Air leaks

3. Leaking foot valve or check valve

In new installation:

1. Re-prime according to instructions.

2. Check all connections on suction line, AVC, and ejector with soapy water or

shaving cream.

3. Replace foot valve or check valve.

Pump has lost prime through:

1. Air leaks

2. Water level below suction pipe inlet

In installation already in use:

1. Check all connections on suction line and shaft seal.

2. Lower suction line into water and re-prime. If receding water level in well

exceeds 25’ (7.6M), a deep well pump is needed.

Air charge too low in pre-charged tank

DISCONNECT POWER and open faucets until all pressure is relieved. Using

tire pressure gauge, check air pressure in tank at valve stem located on the tank.

If less than pressure switch cut-in setting (30-50 PSI), pump air into tank from

outside source until air pressure is 2 PSI less than cut-in setting of switch. Check

air valve for leaks (use soapy solution) and replace core if necessary.

Air spurts from faucets Pump is picking up prime When pump has picked up prime, it should pump solid water with no air.

Leak in suction side of pump Suction pipe is sucking air. Check joints for leaks with soapy water.

Well is gaseous Consult factory about installing a sleeve in the well.

Intermittent over-pumping of well. (Water

drawn down below foot valve.)

Installation – Pompe pour puits peu profund modèle 18

Remplacement d’une ancienne pompe

Tension dangereuse. Couper l’arrivée de courant à la pompe avant

d’intervenir sur la pompe ou sur le moteur.

1 ° Vider toute l’eau de l’ancienne pompe; déposer l’ancienne pompe. Vérifier

l’ancienne tuyauterie à la recherche de dépôts de tartre, de chaux, de

rouille, etc.; la remplacer selon le besoin.

2 ° Brancher la pompe sur le système. S’assurer que tous les raccords du tuyau

d’aspiration sont bien étanches, aussi bien à l’air qu’à l’eau. Si le tuyau

d’aspiration aspire de l’air, la pompe ne pompera pas l’eau du puits.

3 ° Régler la hauteur de montage de la pompe de façon que les raccords

de plomberie n’exercent aucune contrainte sur le corps de la pompe.

Supporter les tuyaux de façon que le corps de la pompe ne supporte pas le

poids de la tuyauterie ni des raccords.

Le branchement de cette pompe neuve sur la tuyauterie du puits est

maintenant terminé. Voir à la page 23 pour les connexions électriques.

Installation de la pointe filtrante (Figure 1)

1 ° Enfoncer la pointe dans le sol, en utilisant des «raccords d’enfoncement» et

des «chapeaux de battage». Les «raccords d’enfoncement» sont filetés sur

toute leur longueur, ce qui permet aux extrémités des tuyaux de venir en

butée l’une contre l’autre de façon que la force d’enfoncement du maillet

soit absorbée par le tuyau et non pas par les filets. Les raccords ordinaires

que l’on trouve dans les quincailleries ne sont pas filetés sur toute leur

longueur et ils risquent de s’écraser sous l’impact des coups. Les «raccords

d’enfoncement» sont également plus lisses que les raccords de plomberie

standard, ce qui leur permet de pénétrer plus facilement dans le sol.

2 ° Monter la pompe aussi près que possible du puits.

3 ° Utiliser le moins possible de raccords (en particulier des coudes) lorsque

l’on branche la tuyauterie de la pointe filtrante sur l’orifice d’aspiration

de la pompe. Le diamètre du tuyau d’aspiration doit être au moins aussi

grand que le diamètre de l’orifice d’aspiration de la pompe (y compris le

clapet anti-retour si la pompe n’en comporte pas un - voir la Figure 1).

Supporter le tuyau de façon qu’il ne soit pas cintré afin qu’il n’exerce pas

de contraintes sur le corps de la pompe; de plus, il doit être légèrement

incliné vers le haut, du puits jusqu’à la pompe (les points hauts risquent de

causer des poches et des bouchons d’air dans la pompe). Rendre étanches

les raccords filetés avec du ruban 1Téflon™ ou une pâte pour raccords

filetés à base de Téflon™ approuvée pour les tuyaux en PVC. Les raccords

doivent être étanches à l’air et à l’eau. Si le tuyau d’aspiration aspire de

l’air, la pompe ne pompera pas l’eau du puits. Si une pointe filtrante ne

fournit pas suffisamment d’eau, considérer brancher deux ou trois pointes

filtrantes sur un même tuyau d’aspiration.

1 E. I. DuPont de Demours and Company Corporation, Delaware

Le branchement de cette pompe neuve sur la tuyauterie du puits est

maintenant terminé. Voir à la page 23 pour les connexions électriques.

Installation sur un puits à tubage de 2 pouces de

diamètre ou plus grand (voir la Figure 2)

1 ° Monter la pompe aussi près que possible du puits.

2 ° Brancher le clapet de pied, la crépine et le tuyau du puits (voir la Figure 2).

S’assurer que le clapet de pied fonctionne librement.

3 ° Abaisser le tuyau dans le puits jusqu’à ce que la crépine soit à cinq pieds

du fond du puits. Pour que la pompe n’aspire pas d’air, la crépine doit

être au moins à 10 pieds sous le niveau de l’eau du puits pendant que la

pompe fonctionne. Poser un joint sanitaire de puits.

Installation – Pompe pour puits peu profund modèle 19

4 ° Poser le té d’amorçage, le bouchon d’amorçage et le tuyau d’aspiration

sur la pompe (voir la Figure 2). Brancher le tuyau provenant du puits sur

l’orifice d’aspiration de la pompe en utilisant le moins possible de raccords

- en particulier des coudes - étant donné que les raccords augmentent le

frottement de l’eau dans les tuyaux (il faut toutefois ajouter un clapet de

pied — voir la Figure 2). Le diamètre du tuyau d’aspiration doit être au

moins aussi grand que le diamètre de l’orifice d’aspiration de la pompe.

Supporter le tuyau de façon qu’il ne soit pas cintré afin qu’il n’exerce pas

de contraintes sur le corps de la pompe; de plus, il doit être légèrement

incliné vers le haut, du puits jusqu’à la pompe (les points hauts risquent de

causer des poches et des bouchons d’air dans la pompe). Rendre étanches

les raccords du tuyau d’aspiration avec du ruban Téflon™ ou une pâte pour

raccords filetés à base de Téflon™. Les raccords doivent être étanches à

l’air et à l’eau. Si le tuyau d’aspiration aspire de l’air, la pompe ne pompera

pas l’eau du puits.

Le branchement de cette pompe neuve sur la tuyauterie du puits est

maintenant terminé. Voir à la page 23 pour les connexions électriques.

Étanchéité des raccords des tuyaux

N’utiliser que du ruban Téflon™ ou de la pâte d’étanchéité pour raccords

filetés à base de Téflon™ pour procéder à tous les raccords filetés sur la

pompe. Ne pas utiliser de pâte pour raccords filetés sur les pompes en

plastique : cette pâte peut réagir avec les éléments en plastiques de la

pompe. S’assurer que tous les raccords du tuyau d’aspiration sont bien

étanches, aussi bien à l’air qu’à l’eau. Si le tuyau d’aspiration aspire de

l’air, la pompe ne pompera pas l’eau du puits.

Remplacement d’une pompe existante convertible 20

Puits profonds

Tension dangereuse. Couper l’arrivée de courant à la pompe

avant d’intervenir sur la pompe ou sur le moteur.

1 ° Vider toute l’eau de l’ancienne pompe; déposer l’ancienne pompe. Vérifier

la tuyauterie à la recherche de dépôts de tartre, de chaux, de rouille, etc.;

la remplacer selon le besoin.

2 ° Poser le régulateur de pression et le manomètre sur le corps de la pompe

(voir la Figure 4).

AVIS : L’ancien éjecteur (celui qui est dans le puits) ne s’assortira peut-être

pas bien avec la nouvelle pompe. Si le rendement de la nouvelle pompe

n’est pas adéquat, nous recommandons de poser un nécessaire

d’éjecteur FP520-100-P2. (fourni).

3 ° Raccorder la pompe et le réservoir au réseau d’alimentation. S’assurer que

tous les raccords du tuyau d’aspiration sont bien étanches, aussi bien à l’air

qu’à l’eau. Si le tuyau d’aspiration aspire de l’air, la pompe ne pompera pas

l’eau du puits.

4 ° Régler la hauteur de montage de la pompe de façon que les raccords

de plomberie n’exercent aucune contrainte sur le corps de la pompe.

Supporter les tuyaux de façon que le corps de la pompe ne supporte pas le

poids de la tuyauterie ni des raccords.

5 ° Raccorder une extrémité de la tuyauterie au té de refoulement de la

bride du réservoir et l’autre à la tuyauterie de la maison. Le diamètre de

la tuyauterie de refoulement doit être égal ou supérieur à celui du té du

réservoir. Poser une soupape de sûreté sur le tuyau de refoulement pour

que l’écoulement de la pompe soit de 75lb/po2. Faire passer un tuyau de

la soupape de sûreté jusqu’à un avaloir de sol ou tout autre dispositif qui

permet de faire évacuer l’eau.

Le raccordement de la pompe neuve et du réservoir est maintenant terminé. Voir à

la page 23 pour les connexions électriques.

Puits peu profonds – (Convertible – Voir la page 18

pour les pompes pour puits peu profonds)

Tension dangereuse. Couper l’arrivée de courant à la pompe

avant d’intervenir sur la pompe ou sur le moteur.

1 ° Vider toute l’eau de l’ancienne pompe; déposer l’ancienne pompe. Vérifier

la tuyauterie à la recherche de dépôts de tartre, de chaux, de rouille, etc.;

la remplacer selon le besoin.

2 ° Retirer le régulateur de pression du corps de la pompe et la remplacer par

un mamelon simple, un té de 1 po x 1 po x 3/4 po à filetage NPT et un

bouchon de 1 po à filetage NPT (voir la figure 4). Poser le manomètre dans

le trou de visite du corps de la pompe (voir la figure 4).

3 ° Poser le nécessaire d’éjecteur. Suivre les instructions fournies avec le

nécessaire. S’assurer de bien aligner le venturi avec le trou supérieur qui se

trouve à l’avant de la pompe (voir la Figure 6).

AVIS : Toujours remplacer l’éjecteur lorsque l’on remplace la pompe d’un

puits peu profonds.

4 ° Raccorder la pompe et le réservoir au réseau d’alimentation. S’assurer que

tous les raccords du tuyau d’aspiration sont bien étanches, aussi bien à l’air

qu’à l’eau. Si le tuyau d’aspiration aspire de l’air, la pompe ne pompera pas

l’eau du puits.

5 ° Régler la hauteur de montage de la pompe de façon que les raccords

de plomberie n’exercent aucune contrainte sur le corps de la pompe.

poids de la tuyauterie ni des raccords.

6 ° Raccorder une extrémité de la tuyauterie au té de refoulement de la

bride du réservoir et l’autre à la tuyauterie de la maison. Le diamètre de

la tuyauterie de refoulement doit être égal ou supérieur à celui du té du

réservoir. Poser une soupape de sûreté sur le tuyau de refoulement pour

que l’écoulement de la pompe soit de 75lb/po2. Faire passer un tuyau de

la soupape de sûreté jusqu’à un avaloir de sol ou tout autre dispositif qui

permet de faire évacuer l’eau.

Le raccordement de la pompe neuve et du réservoir est maintenant

terminé. Voir à la page 23 pour les connexions électriques.
