When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the
following:
To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of property damage or injury, do not attempt to change the backwash (multiport, slide, or full
ow) valve position with the pump running.
WARNING
Polaris pumps are powered by a high voltage electric motor and must be installed by a licensed or certied
electrician or a qualied swimming pool service technician.
WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, FIRE, PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH. Connect only to a branch circuit that is
protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI). Contact a qualied electrician if you cannot verify that the
circuit is protected by a GFCI. Make sure 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 owing, indicating the possibility
of electrical shock. Do not use the pump. Disconnect the pump and have the problem corrected by a qualied
service representative before using.
Due to the potential risk of re, electric shock, or injuries to persons, Zodiac Pumps must be installed in
accordance with the National Electrical Code® (NEC®), all local electrical and safety codes, and the Occupational
Safety and Health Act (OSHA®). Copies of the NEC may be ordered from the National Fire Protection Association®

Figure 1. Number of Suction Outlets Per Pump
Pump suction is hazardous and can trap and drown or disembowel bathers. Do not use or operate
swimming pools, spa, or hot tubs if a suction outlet cover is missing, broken, or loose. The following
guidelines provide information for pump installation that minimizes the risk of injury to users of pools, spas, and
hot tubs:
Entrapment Protection - The pump suction system must provide protection against the hazards of suction
entrapment.
Suction Outlet Covers - All suction outlets must have correctly installed, screw-fastened covers in place. All
suction outlet (drain) covers must be maintained. Drain covers must be listed/certied to the latest version of
ANSI®/ASME® A112.19.8 or its successor standard, ANSI/APSP-16. They must be replaced if cracked, broken, or
missing.
Number of Suction Outlets Per Pump - Provide at least two (2) hydraulically-balanced main drains, with covers,
as suction outlets for each circulating pump suction line. The centers of the main drains (suction outlets) on any
one (1) suction line must be at least three (3) feet apart, center to center. See Figure 1.
The system must be built to include at least two (2) suction outlets (drains) connected to the pump whenever
the pump is running. However, if two (2) main drains run into a single suction line, the single suction line may be
equipped with a valve that will shut off both main drains from the pump. The system shall be constructed such that
it shall not allow for separate or independent shutoff or isolation of each drain. See Figure 1.
More than one (1) pump can be connected to a single suction line as long as the requirements above are met.
Water Velocity - The maximum water velocity through the suction tting or cover for any suction outlet must be
1.5 feet per second unless the outlet complies with the latest version of ANSI/ASME A112.19.8 or its successor
standard, ANSI/APSP-16, the standard for Suction Fittings For Use in Swimming Pools, Wading Pools, Spas, and
Hot Tubs. In any case, do not exceed the suction tting’s maximum designed ow rate.
If 100% of the pump’s ow comes from the main drain system, the maximum water velocity in the pump suction
hydraulic system must be six (6) feet per second or less, even if one (1) main drain (suction outlet) is completely
blocked. The ow through the remaining main drain(s) must comply with the latest version of ANSI/ASME
A112.19.8 or its successor standard, ANSI/APSP-16, the standard for Suction Fittings For Use in Swimming
Pools, Wading Pools, Spas, and Hot Tubs.
Testing and Certication - Suction outlet covers must have been tested by a nationally recognized testing
laboratory and found to comply with the latest version of ANSI/ASME A112.19.8 or its successor standard, ANSI/
APSP-16, the standard for Suction Fittings For Use in Swimming Pools, Wading Pools, Spas, and Hot Tubs.
Fittings - Fittings restrict ow; for best efciency use fewest possible ttings (but at least two (2) suction outlets).
Avoid ttings which could cause an air trap.
Pool cleaner suction ttings must conform to applicable International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical
Ofcials (IAPMO®) standards.

followed exactly. To obtain additional copies of this
manual contact Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc. ("Zodiac")
at 800.822.7933. For address information, see the back
cover of this manual.
2.2 Description
The Polaris booster pump, PB4-60, supplies high
pressure water to the Polaris pool cleaner to optimize
cleaner efficiency. The pump is not self-priming and
should only be used when the pool filtration pump is on.
Running the booster pump without a ltration pump
will damage the booster pump. Improper operation
of the booster pump will void the warranty.
CAUTION
2.3 Preparation
1. Upon receipt of the pump, check the carton for
damage. Open the carton and check the pump for
concealed damage, such as cracks, dents or a bent
base. If damage is found, contact the shipper or
distributor where you purchased the pump.
2. Inspect the contents of the carton and verify
that all the parts are included. See Section 7.1,
Replacement Parts List.
Section 3. Installation
3.1 Electrical Installation
3.1.1 Voltage Checks
The correct voltage, as specified on the pump data
plate, is necessary for proper performance and long
motor life. Incorrect voltage will decrease the pump’s
ability to perform and could cause overheating, reduce
the motor life, and result in higher electric bills.
It is the responsibility of the electrical installer to
provide data plate operating voltage to the pump by
ensuring proper circuit sizes and wire sizes for this
specific application.
The National Electrical Code® (NEC®, NFPA-70®)
requires all pool pump circuits be protected with a
Ground Fault Circuit-Interrupter (GFCI). Therefore, it is
also the responsibility of the electrical installer to ensure
that the pump circuit is in compliance with this and all
other applicable requirements of the National Electrical
Code (NEC) and any other applicable installation codes.
Failure to provide data plate voltage (within 10%)
during operation will cause the motor to overheat
and void the warranty.
CAUTION
3.1.2 Bonding and Grounding
1. The motor frame must be grounded to a reliable
grounding point using a solid copper conductor,
No. 8 AWG (8.4mm2) or larger. In Canada, No.
6 AWG (13.3mm2) or larger must be used. If the
pump is installed within five 5 feet (1,5 meter)
of the inside walls of the swimming pool, spa, or
hot tub, the motor frame must be bonded to all
metal parts of the swimming pool, spa, or hot tub
structure and to all electrical equipment, metal
conduit, and metal piping within five (5) feet (1,5
meter) of the inside walls of the swimming pool,
spa, or hot tub.
2. Bond the motor using the provided external lug.
3. National Electrical Code® (NEC®) requires
bonding of the Pool Water. Where none of the
bonded pool equipment, structures, or parts are
in direct connection with the pool water; the pool
water shall be in direct contact with an approved
corrosion-resistant conductive surface that exposes
not less than 5800 mm² (9 in²) of the surface area
to the pool water at all times. The conductive
surface shall be located where it is not exposed
to physical damage or dislodgement during
usual pool activities, and it shall be bonded in
accordance with the bonding requirements of NEC
Article 680. Refer to locally enforced codes for
any additional pool and spa bonding requirements.
The pump must be permanently connected to a
dedicated electrical circuit. No other equipment,
lights, appliances or outlets may be connected to
the pump circuit, with the exception of devices that
may be required to operate simultaneously with the
pump, such as a chlorinating device or heater.
CAUTION
To avoid the risk of property damage, severe
personal injury, and/or death, always disconnect
the power source before working on a motor or its
connected load.
WARNING
To avoid the risk of property damage, severe
personal injury, and/or death, make sure that
the control switch or time clock is installed in an
accessible location so that in the event of an
equipment failure or a loose plumbing tting the
equipment can be turned off. This location must not
be in the same area as the pool pump, lter, and
other equipment.
WARNING

6. The booster pump motor is factory wired for 230
volts, but can be wired for either 115 or 230 volts.
To rewire to 115 volt, follow the instructions on
the name plate located on the back of the motor or
the sizing plate on the side of the motor.
7. A separate time clock (in addition to the filtration
system time clock) is recommended to control the
On/Off functions of the booster pump. A manual
switch can also be used.
8. If a time clock is used, set it to turn the pump
on at least a half an hour after the pool filtration
pump is turned on, and turn the pump off at least
half an hour before the filtration pump shuts off.
Periodically check the time clock settings to make
sure they are properly synchronized.
3.3 Plumbing
Be careful not to overtighten any pipe tting on the
inlet or outlet of the booster pump. Overtightening
can cause the housing to crack.
CAUTION
3.3.1 Requirements
The Polaris Booster Pump requires a dedicated
return line. Plumb the booster pump into the system so
that it always receives flow from the filtration pump.

2. The booster pump inlet connection line should be
at least 3/4” pipe. The Softube Quick Connect
fittings are designed to work with the Polaris
reinforced hose (part #P19) only.
3. Do not tap into the top of a horizontal line.
4. Use 90° street ells to minimize bends and loops in
the Polaris reinforced hose.
3.3.3 Pump Location
To Reduce the Risk of Fire, install pool equipment in
an area where leaves or other debris will not collect
on or around the equipment. Keep surrounding
area clear of all debris such as paper, leaves, pine
needles and other combustible materials.
WARNING
1. Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc. recommends installing
the pump within one 1 foot (30 cm) above the
water level. The pump should not be elevated
more than a few feet above the water level of the
pool.
2. If the pump is located below water level, isolation
valves must be installed on both the suction and
return lines to prevent back flow of pool water
during any routine or required servicing.
Some Safety Vacuum Release System (SVRS)
devices are not compatible with installation of check
valves. If the pool has an SVRS device, be sure to
conrm that it will continue to safely operate when
any check valves are installed.
WARNING
3. The pump and other circulation equipment must
be located more than 5 feet (1,5 meter) from the
water. Choose a location that will minimize turns
in the piping.
NOTE In Canada, the pump must be located a
minimum of 3.0 meters [approximately 10 feet]
from the water (CSA C22.1).
4. The pump must be placed on a solid foundation
that will not vibrate. To further reduce the
possibility of vibration noise, bolt the pump to the
foundation.
NOTE Zodiac® recommends bolting the pump directly
to the foundation.
5. The pump foundation must have adequate drainage
to prevent the motor from getting wet. The pump
needs to be protected from the rain and sun.
6. Proper ventilation is required for the pump to
operate normally. All motors generate heat that
must be removed by providing proper ventilation.
7. Provide access for future service by leaving a
clear area around the pump. Allow plenty of space
above the pump for servicing.
8. If the equipment is under cover, provide adequate
lighting.
1. Plumb the dedicated line upstream of all air
inducing equipment.
2. If a heater is installed on the system, tap the
inlet for the booster pump into the return line
downstream and at least three (3) feet (1 meter)
from the heater discharge. See Figure 2. Do not
tap the booster pump inlet into the three-foot
(1 meter) section of heat sink pipe that comes
directly out of the heater.
3. Some solar heating systems utilize the entire water
flow when the panels are being purged of air. If the
pump is installed in a non-flow pipe during solar
panel purges, install an automatic override to shut
off the pump.
4. Plumb the booster pump inlet higher, upstream and
as far away as possible from a chlorinator.
3.3.2 Pipe Sizing
1. Use rigid PVC pipe with a minimum diameter
of 3/4”, 1-1/2” is recommended, for the
dedicated return line. Flexible PVC piping is not
recommended for the dedicated pool return line
underground as it can be damaged by expansion
and movement caused by the surge of pump
pressure. Refer to Figures 3 and 4.

7. Slide/Rotate the connector nut to the barb to
engage threads correctly, do not cross thread
connector nut. Tighten the connector nut until
threads are no longer visible (gap about 1/8” or
just less than the width of two dimes), or until it
touches the barb face. See Figure 6.
3.3.5 Installation Recommendations
1. If the pump is located below water level, isolation
valves must be installed on both sides of the pump
to prevent back flow of pool water during any
routine or required servicing.
2. To help prevent difficulty in priming, install the
suction pipe without high points (above inlet of
pump - inverted “U”s in plumbing), which can trap
air.
3. The piping must be well supported and not forced
together where constant stress will be experienced.
4. Always use properly sized valves. Jandy® Pro
Series diverter valves and ball valves typically
3.3.4 Install the Pump
1. Mount the pump using two (2) concrete expansion
anchors to ensure stability.
2. Apply four (4) to six (6) wraps of Teflon® tape
to the tapered thread of the connecter barb. See
Figure 5 (a).
CAUTION
Pipe dope should NEVER be used on barb threads.
Pipe dope will severely weaken the plastic, causing
leakage and may cause the plastic to fracture. DO
NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
3. Thread and tighten the tapered thread of the
connector barb into the pump port on the pump
body. See Figure 5 (b).

5. Use the fewest fittings possible. Every additional
fitting has the effect of moving the equipment
farther away from the water.
NOTE If more than 10 suction fittings are needed, the
pipe size must be increased.
3.3.6 Check the Water Flow
NOTE This pump must have minimum outlet pressure
of 45 psi. Lower pressure may cause an over-
current motor condition.
After the system is plumbed, verify water flow to
the booster pump by disconnecting the inlet supply line
at the booster pump and then turning on the filtration
pump. Water should flow from the line.
4. Trim reinforced hose to required length. Make sure
cut is clean and square. Avoid unnecessary loops
or bends in the hose.
5. Slide connector nut onto the trimmed end of the
hose with threaded end toward the cut end of the
hose. See Figure 5 (c).
6. Apply water to connector barb to help hose slide
over barbs. Push trimmed edge of hose fully onto
the connector barb. See Figure 5 (d).

If there is no water flow, check the following:
1. Verify that the installation is correct. Refer to
Figure 6.
2. Use smaller eyeball fittings in the pool return lines
or plug a return line.
Once flow is established, the pump is ready for
operation.
3.3.7 Conduct Pressure Test
When pressure testing a system with water, air
is often trapped in the system during the lling
process. This air will compress when the system is
pressurized. Should the system fail, this trapped air
can propel debris at a high speed and cause injury.
Every effort to remove trapped air must be taken,
including opening the bleed valve on the lter and
loosening the pump basket lid on the lter pump
while lling the pump.
WARNING
Trapped air in system can cause lter lid to be blown
off, which can result in death, serious personal
injury, or property damage. Be sure all air is properly
out of system before operating. DO NOT USE
COMPRESSED AIR TO PRESSURE TEST OR
CHECK FOR LEAKS.
WARNING
When pressure testing the system with water, it is
very important to make sure that the pump basket
lid on the lter pump is completely secure.
WARNING
Do not pressure test above 35 PSI. Pressure
testing must be done by a trained pool professional.
Circulation equipment that is not tested properly can
fail, which could result in severe injury or property
damage.
WARNING
1. Fill the system with water, using care to eliminate
trapped air.
2. Pressurize the system with water to no more than
35 PSI.
3. Close the valve to trap pressurized water in the
system.
4. Observe the system for leaks and/or pressure
decay.
5. For technical support, contact Zodiac® technical
support at 800.822.7933.
Section 4. Operation
4.1 Start-up
Never run the booster pump without water. Running
the pump “dry” for any length of time can cause
severe damage to both the pump and motor and will
void the warranty.
CAUTION
Never run the booster pump without the cleaner
connected. Running the pump without the cleaner
connected will cause damage to the pump impeller
and will void the warranty.
CAUTION
If this is a new pool installation, make sure all
piping is clear of construction debris and has been
properly pressure tested. The filter should be checked
for proper installation, verifying all connections and
clamps are secure according to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
To avoid risk of damage or injury, verify that all
power is turned off before starting this procedure.
WARNING
1. Turn filtration pump ON.
2. Open the filter pressure release to relieve the
system pressure until water comes out.
3. If the filter pump is located below the water level
of the pool, opening the filter pressure release
valve will prime the pump with water.
4. Once all the air has left the filter, close the
pressure release valve.
5. Turn on the power to the booster pump. Then turn
on the booster pump.
6. The booster pump should prime. The time it takes
to prime will depend on the elevation and length of
pipe used on the suction supply pipe. See Section
3.3.6 for proper elevation and pipe size.
7. If the booster pump does not prime and all the
instructions to this point have been followed,
check for a suction leak.

warranty.
CAUTION
Do not use antifreeze solutions in the pool,
spa, or hot tub systems! Antifreeze is highly toxic
and may damage the circulation system. The only
exception to this is Propylene Glycol. For more
information see your local pool/spa supply store or
contact a qualied swimming pool service company.
CAUTION
1. Drain all water from the pump, system equipment,
and piping.
2. Remove the drain plug. Store the drain plug in a
safe location and reinstall it when the cold weather
season is over. Do not lose the o-ring. (Drain Plug
with O-ring Set, R0537000).
Section 6. Product Specifications and Technical Data
6.1 Replacement Parts List
To order or purchase parts for Polaris® pumps, contact your nearest Zodiac® dealer. If they cannot supply you with
what you need, contact Zodiac technical support at 800.822.7933 or www.zodiacpoolsystems.com.
3. Keep the motor covered and dry.
NOTE Covering the pump with plastic will create
condensation, and this moisture will damage
the pump. The best way to protect your pump
is to have a qualified service technician or
electrician properly disconnect the electrical
wiring at the switch or junction box. Once the
power is removed, the two (2) quick connect
fittings can be loosened and the pump stored
indoors. For safety, and to prevent entry of
contaminants, reinstall all conduit and terminal
box covers.
4. When the system is reopened for operation, make
sure all piping, valves, wiring, and equipment
are in accordance with the manufacturer's
recommendations. Pay close attention to the filter
and electrical connections.
5. The pump must be primed prior to starting; refer
to Section 4.1, Start-up.

Section 1. CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES
LIRE ET SUIVRE TOUTES LES DIRECTIVES
1.1 Consignes de sécurité
Tout travail en lien avec l’électricité doit être effectué par un électricien qualifié, et se conformer aux codes locaux,
provinciaux et nationaux. Lors de l’installation et de l’utilisation de cet équipement électrique, les consignes de sécurité
élémentaires doivent toujours être respectées, notamment les mises en garde suivantes :
Pour réduire les risques de blessures, ne pas laisser les enfants utiliser ce produit.
AVERTISSEMENT
Pour réduire les risques de dommages matériels ou de blessures, ne pas tenter de modier la position de la valve du lavage à
contre-courant (port multiple, glisser ou débit plein) lorsque la pompe fonctionne.
AVERTISSEMENT
Les pompes Polaris sont alimentées par un moteur électrique haute tension et doivent être installées par un électricien agréé
ou qualié ou un technicien d’entretien des piscines.
AVERTISSEMENT
RISQUE DE DÉCHARGE ÉLECTRIQUE, D’INCENDIE, DE BLESSURES OU DE MORT. Raccorder uniquement à un circuit
de dérivation qui est protégé par un disjoncteur de fuite à la terre (DDFT). Contacter un électricien qualié s’il n’est pas
possible de vérier que le circuit est équipé d’un différentiel ou non. S’assurer qu’un tel différentiel est fourni par l’installateur
et qu’il est testé quotidiennement. Pour tester le différentiel, appuyer sur le bouton de test. Le différentiel doit couper le DDFT
de l’alimentation. Appuyer sur le bouton de remise en route. L’alimentation doit être rétablie. Si le DDFT ne fonctionne pas
comme indiqué, c’est qu’il est défectueux. Si le différentiel coupe l’alimentation de la pompe sans que le bouton de test ait été
enfoncé, cela indique la présence d’un courant de terre, signiant un risque de décharge électrique. Ne pas utiliser la pompe.
Débrancher la pompe et faire corriger le problème par un représentant de service qualié avant toute utilisation.
En raison du risque potentiel d'incendie, d’électrocution ou de blessures corporelles, les pompes Zodiac® doivent être
installées conformément au National Electrical Code® (NEC®), aux codes électriques et de sécurité locaux, ainsi que selon
la loi Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA®). Il est possible de commander des copies du NEC auprès de la National
Fire Protection Association® (NFPA®) en ligne sur www.nfpa.org, en appelant le 617 770-3000 ou en contactant votre agence
d’inspection du gouvernement.
AVERTISSEMENT
Un équipement mal installé peut faire défaut, causant de graves blessures ou dommages matériels.
AVERTISSEMENT
• Ne pas raccorder le système à un réseau municipal d’approvisionnement en eau non régulé ni à aucune autre source
externe d’eau sous pression produisant des pressions supérieures à 2,41 BAR (35 lb-po²).
• La présence d’air emprisonné dans le système peut faire sauter le couvercle du ltre et entraîner le décès, de graves
blessures corporelles ou des dommages matériels. Veiller à ce que tout l’air a quitté le système avant d’utiliser l’équipement.
AVERTISSEMENT
Page 20 FRANÇAIS Polaris® PB4-60 Pompe de surpression | Manuel d’installation et de fonctionnement
CONSERVER CES DIRECTIVES
Les déversements de produits chimiques et les émanations peuvent affaiblir l’équipement de piscine/spa. La corrosion peut
provoquer la panne des ltres et d’autres équipements, entraînant ainsi de graves blessures ou des dommages matériels. Ne
pas ranger les produits chimiques à proximité de votre équipement.
AVERTISSEMENT
Ne pas démarrer la pompe à sec! Le fait de laisser fonctionner la pompe « à sec » pendant un certain temps causera de
graves dommages et annulera la garantie.
MISE EN GARDE
Pour réduire le risque de blessures graves ou de décès, la pompe ou le ltre ne doit pas être soumis à un essai de mise sous
pression de la tuyauterie.
Les codes locaux peuvent exiger l’application d’un test de mise sous pression au niveau de la tuyauterie de la piscine.
Généralement, ces exigences ne sont pas conçues pour être appliquées à l’équipement de piscine, comme les ltres ou les
pompes.
L’équipement de piscine Polaris est soumis à des tests de mise sous pression en usine.
Toutefois, si cet AVERTISSEMENT ne peut pas être respecté et que le test de mise sous pression du système de tuyauterie
doit inclure le ltre et/ou la pompe, S’ASSURER DE RESPECTER LES CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ SUIVANTES :
• Vérier les serre-joints, les boulons, les couvercles, les anneaux de blocage et les accessoires du système pour s’assurer
qu’ils sont correctement installés et xés solidement avant d’effectuer un test.
• LIBÉRER TOUT L’AIR présent dans le système avant le test.
• La pression de l’eau pendant le test NE DOIT PAS DÉPASSER 2,41 BAR (35 lb-po²).
• La température de l’eau pendant le test NE DOIT PAS DÉPASSER 38 °C (100 °F).
• Limiter la durée du test à 24 heures. Après le test, vérier visuellement le système pour s’assurer qu’il est prêt à fonctionner.
AVIS : Ces paramètres s’appliquent à l’équipement Zodiac uniquement. Pour les équipements autres que Zodiac, consulter le
fabricant de l’équipement.
AVERTISSEMENT
Cette pompe est destinée aux piscines installées de façon permanente et peut également être utilisée dans les cuves
thermales et les spas, lorsque cela est indiqué. Ne pas utiliser avec des piscines pouvant être entreposées. Une piscine
permanente est construite dans le sol, sur le sol ou dans un bâtiment, de telle manière qu’elle ne puisse pas être facilement
démontée et rangée. Une piscine pouvant être rangée est construite pour qu’elle puisse être démontée facilement aux ns
d’entreposage, puis remontée à son état initial.
MISE EN GARDE
Ne pas installer la pompe dans un boîtier extérieur ou sous les rebords d’une cuve thermale ou d’un spa. Celle-ci nécessite
une ventilation adéquate pour maintenir une température ambiante inférieure à la température ambiante maximale gurant sur
la plaque signalétique du moteur.
