ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Hazardous voltage.
Capacitor voltage may be hazardous. To
discharge the Variable Frequency Drive
(VFD) capacitor, disconnect the pump
from the power supply and wait at least 5
minutes.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT assume that the
capacitor is discharged. Disconnect the
power, wait the 5 minutes, and only then
begin work on the pump or VFD. If in
doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Also, this pump is designed to operate
ONLY on a 230V, 1-Phase, AC power
supply. The VFD converts 230V 1-Phase
AC to correct power for the pump motor.
DO NOT attempt to operate the motor, or
connect the motor to any power source,
unless the VFD is installed and operating
correctly. DO NOT put a plug on the power
cable and try to operate the pump as a
plug-in unit.
Electrical shock hazard. Do
not touch terminals. Terminals may be
energized in the open position even when
screen is blank.
GENERAL SAFETY

an operating motor. Motors are designed
to operate at high temperatures. To avoid
burns when servicing pump, shut it down
