EQ Series Pump Installation and User’s Guide

Section 6

Servicing

WARNING —Risk of electrical shock or electrocution.

This pool pump must be installed by a licensed or certified electrician or a qualified pool

serviceman in accordance with the National Electrical Code and all applicable local codes and

ordinances. Improper installation will create an electrical hazard which could result in death or

serious injury to pool users, installers, or others due to electrical shock, and may also cause

damage to property.

Always disconnect power to the pool pump at the circuit breaker before servicing the pump.

Ensure that the disconnected circuit is locked out or properly tagged so that it cannot be

switched on while you are working on the pump. Failure to do so could result in death or serious

injury to serviceman, pool users or others due to electric shock.

Read all servicing instructions before working on the pump.

The pump is designed to allow for quick servicing of any moving parts without disturbing the plumbing

connections. The pump can be serviced with the common tools that are in nearly every service persons

toolbox. The following sequential instructions are for a complete disassembly in order to replace a failed motor.

The same instructions may be used to perform a partial disassembly to replace any internal component, but

following all steps will not be required.

CAUTION — It is recommended that you replace the motor with the Pentair replacement motor as identified in

Section 8. This motor has been thoroughly tested to ensure that it will function appropriately with the

pump under a wide variety of operating conditions. If you choose to use another replacement motor

it is important that the frame type, the HP, the service factor, the voltage, the phase and the motor

speed match exactly to that listed on the original motor. Slight differences in these parameters can

cause the motor to not fit the pump correctly or cause the motor to fail prematurely.
