It is not designed or intended for shallow well use. Use in a deep well (more than 25' depth to water). MAJOR COMPONENTS AND WHAT THEY DO Tank and Air Volume Control Adapter The tank serves two functions: The VMS pump is equipped with an adapter flange. This adapter facilitates installation and removal of the pump without disturbing piping. See Pages 6 and 7 for more information. 1. 2. It provides a reservoir of water. Some of this water is drawn offwhencver a house ftxture is opened (so that the pump doesn't need to start every time you open a tap). It maintains a cushion of air under pressure. A standard tank requires an Air Volume Control (AVC) to add air to the tank when needed. See the instructions included with the AVC for details of installation and operation. A Captive Air* tank maintains a constant precharge of air in the tank and does not require an AVC. An annual check on the tank pre-charge pressure is recommended. Impeller The pump's impeller rotates with the motor shaft, causing the water to fly out from its rim by centrifugal force. The rotation of the impeller, along with the motion of the water, creates a vacuum at the center of the impeller (the "eye" of the impeller) which pulis in more water. The Vertical Multi-Stage (VMS) pump has two impellers; the water feeds through them one after the other, with each impeller adding to the pressure. This allows the VMS jet pump to pull water from greater depths and at a higher pressure than a conventional single stage jet pumps. Pressure Relief Valve Under certain conditions, VMS pumps can generate very high pressure. The pressure relief valve is installed to make sure that the pressure in the system does not exceed the pressure which the system can carry safely. The pressure relief valve must be able to pass all the water the pump can produce at the system's rated pressure. Install a relief valve (Sears Stock No. 2729) set to open at 75 PSI. between the pump and the rank. There should be no shutoff valves between the pump and the relief valve. See Figures 11 and 12, Page 8, for more information. Pump Mounting The pump base has three equally spaced 3/4" NPT threaded sockets. These will take threaded pipe for legs, to allow enough room to make piping connections under the pump. In the case of a single pipe installation (see below), the pump can be placed directly over the well, using the offset nipple furnished with the casing adapter to connect the pump to the well head. Piping Jet The jet is a nozzle/ventllri arrangement installed in the well which drives water up to the pump from the well, boosting the water pressure going into the impellers. The jet allows water to be lifted from a greater depth than would be possible with only the impeller eye's vacuum. In order to drive the jet, part of the discharge stream from the pump is diverted back "down the hole" to the jet to help lift water from the well into the pump suction. Pressure Flange Regulator The pressure regulator vert the correct amount most efficient operation. pressure regulator may pump's life (see Page pump's efficiency. is adjusted at installation to diof water back to the jet for the Under certain conditions, the require adjustment during the 10) to restore or maintain the Pressure Switch The pressure switch automatically starts the pump when the pressure in the tank drops to 40 pounds per square inch (PSI) and stops the pump when the tank pressure reaches 60 PSI. When installed on a 'double pipe' jet, one pipe is the pressure or drive pipe; this pipe sends water down into the well to the jet. The other pipe is the suction pipe; this pipe carries water up to the pump suction from the jet. Because of the pressure requirements and depth of multi-stage jet pump installations, use the chart below for pipe selection. When installed on a singe pipe jet, the well casing serves as the drive pipe, carrying water to the jet. The drop pipe inside the well is the suction pipe, carrying water up to the pump from the jet. Use a 'single pipe' system for a 2" or 3" well; use a 'double pipe' system for a 4 _ or larger well. See Pages 6 and 7 for details. Follow instructions packed with jet package to get proper nozzle and venturi combination for your pumping depth. Use 1-1/4" pipe for both suction and drive pipes. A 1" nipple, a 1-1/4"xl" facing bushing, and a 1-1/4 _ coupling are included in the jet package. These must be used with the jet. (See Figure 8, Page 6, for installation details.)

NOTICE: Deep well instaUations are either single pipe (2" wells) or double pipe (4" and larger wells). In a double pipe installation, the larger pipe is the suction pipe and the smaller pipe is the drive pipe (very deep wells may use suction and drive pipes of the same diameter). Be sure well is clear of sand. Sand will plug the pump and void the warranty. Protect pump and all piping from freezing. Freezing will split pipe, damage pump and void the warranty. Check locally for frost protection requirements (usually pipe must by 12 _ below frost line and pump must be insulated). Be sure all pipes and foot valve are clean and in good shape. No air pockets in suction pipe. Plastic pipe is ideal for double pipe instaUations. Due to its light weight, it is easy to handle and does not usually require a block and tackle for instaUation and removal. Double Pipe Installation - Plastic Pipe NOTICE: Use Teflon tape on all male threads on plastic pipe and fittings to prevent air leaks in suction piping. No leaks in suction pipe. Use Teflon tape or PlastoJoint stik to seal pipe joints. 1. Inspect ejector to make sure that nozzle turi openings are clean and clear. 2. Inspect NOTICE: openings Match pump to well.

(Your well driller should supply this information.) NOTICE: As a guide, the ejector should be set at least 10 to 20 feet below the lowest water level with pump running, if possible, but always at least five feet from the bottom of the well. 8. 9. Tighten all hose clamps securely on plastic pipe. Use two clamps per joint to prevent air leaks into suction pipe. Clamp screws should be on opposite sides of the pipe. Fill pipes with water to make sure that foot valve and connections do not leak. Install sanitary well seal on top of well casing; use steel nipple through well seal as shown in Figure 6. NOTICE: Align locating lugs on adapter flange pump base so that pump discharge will be aligned piping. 10.

See "Discharge Pipe Sizes" for information hag correct discharge pipe size. Steel regard- Piping The special adapter nipple is not used with steel piping. To more safely lower steel piping into the well, build a tripod out of 2x4 lumber. A couple of pipe clamps can also be made of 2x4s secured with 1/2" bolts (see Figure 10B). Always install the coupling at the top end of the pipe joint and install the pipe clamp below the coupling. This will prevent accidentally dropping the pipe into the well if the clamp slips. With steel pipe, be sure all joints are clean and the ends reamed before installing; use teflon tape or pipe joint compound at each joint to prevent leakage. Use a lever hoist (a "come-along") to lower pipe into well (see Figure 10A). As each section of piping is lowered into the well, fill it with water. This will help prime the system and also serves as a check on leaks Pump mounted on Casing Lever Hoist Pipe Clamp - serves as Drive Pipe Waterlevel with pump Pipe Clamp _ _ll_-L Pipe riiing 1Oto20 Feet Figure I 0A - Use tripod pipe into the well and lever hoist to lower Leathers 5 Feet or mere i Figure 9 Figure , I 0B - Pipe clamp detail INSTALLATION which piping Single may occur in the piping is assembled.

NOTICE: As a guide, the ejector should be set at least 10 to 20 feet below the lowest water level with pump running, if possible, but always at least 5 feet above the bottom of the well (see Figure 9, Page 7). 4. To properly seat the cup seals, after the ejector is correctly positioned move the assembly up and down slightly. Water pressure in the casing will then soak the cup seals (see Figure 9). They should seal in 2-3 hours after installation. 5. Installation When a standard tank is used, an air volume control (AVC) adds air to the tank when it is needed. See Figure 11 for typical standard tank installation. To connect AVC to pump, thread a 1/8" compression fitting into tapped hole on the front of the pump. Cut tubing to length to reach AVC; assemble to fitting on pump and to AVC on tank. See installation instructions provided with tank and AVC for details. 100' to 300' Suct. Tank The Pressure Tank provides a reservoir of water under pressure and maintains cushion of air pressure to prevent pipe hammering and possible damage to plumbing components. When water is drawn off through house fixtures, the pressure in the tank is lowered and the pressure switch starts the pump. NOTICE: Fill pipe with water as each length is added to be sure foot valve and connections do not leak. 3. When the pump is set away from the points of water use, the discharge pipe size should be increased to reduce pressure losses caused by friction. • Up to 100 ff run: 1" • 100 ft. to 300 ft run: 1-1/4" Pressure When the pump is set more than 25' to one side of the well, increase the horizontal pipe size to reduce friction. Never use pipe smaller than the pump port size. 390,2532 2. with packer-type Lower pipe into casing. Use special turned couplings (included with single pipe ejector package) to increase water flow.

HELPFUL Once unit has primed and pressure stabilized, slowly open (turn counterclockwise - Figure 19A, regulator valve until pressure falters (pressure gauge needle flutters; pump may become noisy- see Figure 1913). At this point, close (turn clockwise) regulator valve slightly until pressure stabilizes. This setting provides maximum flow (Figure 19C). Pump may draw well down far enough at this point to lose its prime. If so, close regulator valve until pressure is stable throughout pumping cycle. Close faucets and allow pump to pressurize tank and shut off. How HINTS To Handle / MAINTENANCE A Gaseous Well In some areas well water contains gases which must be allowed to escape before the water is used. To deliver gas-free water suspend a pipe, closed at the bottom and open at the top, so that it surrounds the suction pipe inlet. (See Figure 20). Since the gases rise in the well casing, the water sucked down through the pipe and into the suction pump is free of gas. This type of weil must be vented to the outside of any enclosure. Air Control Check system by alternately opening and closing faucets in the system. With faucets open, pressure will drop until pump starts; with faucets closed, pressure will build up until pump shuts off. There are conditions of deep well operation when the regulator valve may be completely open without any faltering of pressure. In this case, operate pump with regulator valve open. In Flowing Wells Flowing wells or wells with little or no drawdown, could create a special problem in air control in the operation of your standard tank system. In such cases, a pre-charged tank (which needs no air control) is recommended. Gases rise to surface Figure 19A - Open Regulator wire to hold pipe sleeve Valve pipe valve sleeve cap Figure 19B - Watch for Pressure Gauge to Flutter Figure 20 - Gas/Air Figure 19C - Close Regulator Pressure Stabilizes Valve until 11 Control in Well MAINTENANCE Using the Compound Gauge Pump Diassembly If the pump or system seems to be operating inefficiently, the compound gauge can sometimes help determine the problem. A compound gauge is a combination vacuum and pressure gauge which will indicate (1) receding water level in the well, (2) leakage in the suction line or in the pump, or (3) clogged impeller. To use, install the gauge in the air volume control (AVC) port in the base of the pump. Open all shutoff valves between pump and household piping. Tighten regulator screw as far as possible. After running pump a few minutes to eliminate all air from pipes, loosen regulator screw until compound gauge shows 15" of vacuum. This setting indicates that the pressure regulator is set for delivery of the highest volume of water possible. Let the pump run a few minutes; if the water level in the well is falling, the vacuum vdll increase. If necessary, reduce the regulator setting to bring the vacuum reading back to 15 ". If the pump does not develop 15" of vacuum according the gauge, you may have air leaks in the suction line or a clogged impeller. Cleaning the Deep Well 1. Pull disconnect switch. from pressure switch. 2. Remove the two cap screws holding the pump to the flange adapter. Don't disturb the piping in the well. 3. Remove surfaces , 5. the flange clean.

With two screwdrivers on opposite sides of the pump, carefully pry the pump adapter away from the motor. This vdll pull the seal off of the motor shaft. Use caution to make sure that the ceramic seal does not dig into the sbaft and scratch the shaft's sealing surface. Figure 23 9. Installation The impellers are keyed to the shaft and do not unscrew. Insert two screw drivers on opposite sides under the exposed impeller and pry the impeller off (Figure 24) to remove it. Of New Seal 1. Clean all gasket surfaces thoroughly before reassembly. Clean the seal bore cavity in the pump adapter. 2. Wet the rubber seat ring with soapy water and push the stationary part of the seal into the seal bore cavity. Use a piece of 1" pipe pressing on a cardboard washer (to prevent damaging seal surface) as a press. Make sure that the seal half is fully seated in the seal bore cavity Remove the cardboard once the seal is in place. Make sure that the shaft keys are in place on the shaft. If they are not, squeeze them in place now with slip joint pliers. Do not tap tbem or bit them with a hammer; you could bend the shaft (see Figure 26). When the keys are correctly installed, the adapter will pass over the keys without interference. 3. Figure 24 10. Carefully tap a small screwdriver chisel in between the intermediate or thin bladed volute and the pump adapter in two or three places around the pump to separate the castings (Figure 25). Do not mar the sealing surfaces; do not break pieces out of the adapter or volute - the castings are easily damaged. ! Use pliers with care no hammers. Figure 26 Figure 25 13 HAINTENANCE , Carefully slide the adapter over the shaft (see Figure 27). Do not damage the shaft sealing surface; it is highly polished and any slight scratches or nicks will ruin it. 9. 10. Make sure the second shaft key is in place and install the second impeller. Twist the impeller to make sure that the shaft key is still in place. Hold the motor shaft with slip-joint pliers or vice-grips and install and tighten the impeller locknut. Tightening the lock nut automatically spaces the impeller correctly. Do not overtighten. Align Marks_ 11. Install the base volute gasket. Make sure thegasket is rl_ht side up so that the waterpassage holes line up with the water passages in the volutes. Install the base volute, using the alignment marks made before disassembly. Make sure that the pump discharge will correctly meet the the piping when the pump is reinstalled. 12. Insert the four base capscrews and tighten evenly (see Figure 29). These should be easy to install ff everything is correctly aligned. If not, don't force them," go hack over your work and find and correct the misalignment. Figure 27 5. 6. Install the intermediate volute, aligning it with the mark made before disassembly. Use the long cap screws to check this alignment. It cannot be stressed too strongly that all bolt holes and water passages of all gaskets and volutes MUST line up with each other, or the pump will not be assembled correctly. Using the alignment marks made before disassembiT, line up the adapter with the motor and bolt the adapter in place. Tighten the cap screws evenly. Push the shaft seal and seal spring onto the shaft, after making sure that the seal faces and shaft are clean. Take care that the shaft shoulder does not damage the carbon seal face. Follow the seal spring with the spring holder; compress the spring and give the spring holder a quarter turn to lock it under the first shaft key (see Figure 28). Bolts should be easy to insert. Make sure all marks line up. Figure 29 13. Reinstall the pressure sure tube. Figure 28 7. Slide the first impeller onto the shaft; follow it with the impeller spacer. Twist the impeller on the shaft to make sure that the shaft key is still in place and the impeller is locked to the shaft (the shaft should turn with the impeller). 8. Install a new volute gasket, lining up the bolt holes with the bolt holes in the adapter. Make sure the gasket is right side up so that the waterpassage holes line up with the water passages in the volutes. switch barb fitting and pres- 14. Reinstall the pump on the adapter flange (use a new gasket) and reconnect the wiring and grounding. Pump is now ready for operation. 14 TROUBLESHOOTING SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSE(S) CHART CORRECTIVE ACTION Motor will not run 1. 2. 3. 4. Disconnect switch is off Fuse is blown Starting switch is defective Wires at motor are loose, disconnected, or wired incorrectly 5. Pressure switch contacts are dirty 6. Wrong voltage 1. 2. 3. 4. Motor runs hot and overload kicks off 1. Motor is wired incorrectly 2. Voltage is too low 1. Refer to instructions on wiring 2. Check with power company. Install heavier wiring if wire size is too small. See wiring instructions. 3. See section below on too frequent cycling 3. Pump cycles too frequently Motor runs but no water is delivered *(Note: Check )rime before looking for other causes. Unscrew pressure gauge and see if there is water in priming hole) "1. Pump in a new installation did not pick up prime through: a. Improper priming b. Air leaks c. Leaking foot valve *2. Pump has lost its prime through: a. Air leaks b. Water level below suction of pump Ejector or impeller is plugged 4. Check valve or foot valve is stuck in closed position 5. Pipes are frozen 3. 6. Foot valve and/or strainer are buried in sand or mud Be sure switch is on Replace fuse Replace starting switch Refer to instructions on wiring. Check and tighten all wiring. 5. Clean by sliding piece of plain paper between contacts 6. Make sure motor voltage exactly matches power supply voltage. 1. In new installation a. Re-prime according to instructions b. Check all connections on suction line, air volume control, and ejector c. Replace foot valve 2, In installation already in use: a. Check all connections on suction line, air volume control, ejector and shaft seal b. Lower suction line into water and re-prime. If receding water level in a shallow well operation exceeds suction lift, a deep well pump is needed. 3, Clean ejector or impeller; see Maintenance 4. Replace check valve or foot valve 5. Thaw pipes. Bury pipes below frost line. Heat pit or pump house. 6. Raise foot valve and/or strainer above well bottom Pump does not deliver water to full capacity (Also check point 3 immediately above) 1. Water level in well is lower than estimated 2. Steel piping (if used) is corroded or limed, causing excess friction 3. Offset piping is too small in size 1. Lower ejector in weir 2. Replace with plastic pipe where possible, otherwise with new steel pipe Pump pumps water but does not shut off 1. Pressure switch is out of adjustment or contacts are "frozen" 2. Faucets have been left open 3. Ejector or impeller is clogged 4. Water level in well is lower than estimated 5. Wrong voltage 1. Adjust or replace pressure switch Pump cycles too frequently Air spurts from faucets 3, Use larger offset piping 2. Close faucets 3. Clean ejector or impeller 4. Check possibility of using a deep well jet pump 5. Make sure motor voltage exactly matches power supply voltage. 1. Standard pressure tank is waterlogged and has no air cushion 2. Pipes leak 3. Faucets or valves are open 4. Foot valve leaks 5. Pressure switch is out of adjustment 6. Air charge too low in Captive Air _ tank 1. Drain tank to air volume control tapping. Check air volume control for defects. Check for air leaks at any connection. 2. Check connections 3. Close faucets or valves 4. Replace foot valve 5. Adjust or replace pressure switch 6, Disconnect electrical power and open faucets until all pressure is relieved. Using automobile tire pressure gauge, check air pressure in tank at the valve stem located at top of tank. If less than the pressure switch cut-in setting, pump air into tank from outside source until the air pressure is the same as cut-in setting of switch. Check air valve for leaks, using soapy solution, and replace core if necessary. 1. 2. 3. 4. 1. 2. 3. 4.
