ACCEPTABLE MOTOR MOUNTING POSITIONS

CASING ROTATION

To rotate the casing, remove the 4 motor screws and spin the

casing to the desired flow direction. Reattach the 4 screws

(

32

" allens wrench required). Be sure body gasket is seated

evenly to prevent leakage. Tighten motor screws to 34-42 in-

lbs torque.

Position electrical knockout at 6 o’clock position for best programming and LCD viewing orientation. Casing

may be rotated to change flow direction.

1.    Location:

The circulator can be installed on the supply or return side of the boiler but for best system performance, it should always pump

away from the expansion tank. See piping diagrams in Figures No.1 and No. 2.

Integral Flow Check (IFC

®

) option

- An IFC

®

is included in the carton. If required, press IFC into machined discharge port with plunger

and o-ring facing in, until it snaps into place. Before installing, press IFC plunger to be sure it moves freely. See diagram below.

2.    Mounting position: 

Circulator must be mounted with the motor in the horizontal position. See diagrams below for acceptable motor mounting orientations.

CAUTION: Do not use flat rubber gaskets. Only use O-ring gaskets provided or leaks may result. Warranty will be void.
