WARNING

This pump and motor unit should be installed by a qualified, licensed or certified electrician or serviceman in accordance with all applicable state and local codes and ordinances, and in accordance with the National Electrical Code. Improper installation may create a mechanical or electrical hazard which could cause damage to property and which could result in serious injury or death. 
In order to avoid serious injury or death, always disconnect power to the motor, at the circuit breaker before servicing the pump. 

INSTALLATION

Proper installation of your WAVE Pump will help it to provide you with years of trouble free service.
 
..1. Position the pump as near to the source and as low as is practical. Note: Exhibit A and B on Best Ways to Install the Wave Pump. Be careful to install a check valve when necessary. This will help avoid cavitations and maximize your performance.
..2. Protect the motor from excessive heat and moisture. It is best to provide shade from direct sun, and insure that it has proper ventilation. Excessive heat will shorten the motor life and void the warranty.
..3. Protect the motor against dirt, water and all foreign matter. If the motor has been flooded, do not operate it until it has been checked by an authorized motor technician, and has been found to be safe to operate. If the motor is damaged by dirt, moisture, flood or corrosion it voids the warranty.
..4. Mount the motor to a flat, stable base where it won't get submerged. 
..5. The pump ports are 2" NPT female on both the suction and discharge ports. The fittings used to connect to the housing should be plastic. (We have provided you with unions, for better connection and easy installation.) All plumbing lines should be self supported and properly aligned. This will prevent undue stress to the housing. We recommend sealing the pipe joints with the unions included, DO NOT use Teflon tape. 
ELECTRICAL
..1. Make sure the power is disconnected at the breaker before wiring the motor. 
..2. Make sure that the motor is wired so that it matches the supply voltage (eg. 115 or 230 volt). If they do not match it will damage your motor and void the warranty. 
..3. Use a wire of adequate gauge to prevent electrical line losses. The use of heavier gauge wire will allow the motor to run cooler and more efficiently, by eliminating excessive voltage drop. 
..4. Make sure all connections are clean and tight. Properly ground the motor. (There is normally a green ground terminal located on the inside of the motor connection box.). Make sure the ground wire is properly connected to an electrical service ground. 
..5. The supply line and pump outlet should be permanently connected to an adequately sized circuit. It is best to have a dedicated circuit that won't suffer voltage drop from other loads. The wiring, fusing and grounding must comply with the National Electrical code and local codes.
CAUTION
..1. The polished and lapped faces of the seal could be damaged if not handled with care. 
..2. DO NOT run the pump dry.

Best Ways to Install the Wave Pump

INSTALLATION ABOVE WATER LEVEL (GROUND LEVEL)

To install the WAVE Pump above water level, use a Check Valve between the Settlement Tank & Leaf
Trap. The Check Valve must be at least 12" below the water level. The Wave Pump pumps water 

through the Biological Filter to the Waterfall Filter then back to the pond.

 

INSTALLATION BELOW WATER LEVEL

To install the WAVE Pump below the water level, you need a pump housing to protect the WAVE 
Pump, and the Leaf Trap from being flooded by rainwater. With the pump housing in place, a Check

Valve is not necessary. Make sure you have a drain in the pump housing when it rains. The WAVE 

Pump pumps water through the Biological Filter to the Waterfall Filter, then back to the pond.
