Do not run pump dry.

Pump liquid should not exceed a maximum temperature of 104°F.

Never place the pump on loose or soft ground. The pump may sink, preventing

water from reaching the impeller. Place on a solid surface or suspend the pump
with a lifting rope/chain.

For maximum pumping capacity, use the proper size non-collapsible hose or rigid

piping. A check valve may be installed after the discharge to prevent back flow
when the pump is shut off

(recommended if static head is 30’ or greater).

Take stand off of pump when using slide rail. Keep stand and reattach when

transporting or handling the pump.

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

Electrical wiring and protection must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code
per NEC articles 500 through 503 for installation in Class I, Division 1, Group C & D
Hazardous Locations, and any other applicable state and local electrical requirements.

For motor specifications, motor technical data, design features, power supply, electrical
wiring, operation, inspecting & maintenance, replacing shaft seals, replacing cables,
replacing bearings and other parts, repairing, storing and troubleshooting the
submersible electric motor, refer to EIM ELECTRIC CO., LTD Instruction Manual for
Installation, Operation and Maintenance for the Explosion Proof Submersible Motors
(EMQY Series; FM Approved for Class I, Division 1, Group C & D).

Note: All service work on the FM approved motor by EIM Electric Co., needs to be done
by an FM Approved repair facility.

The XP-SK Series motors have a separate sensor cable for the motor thermal sensors
and Seal Minder. See

Seal Minder - Thermal Motor Sensor Switch section

in this

manual for proper connection method

PUMP ROTATION

DO NOT PLACE HANDS IN PUMP SUCTION WHILE CHECKING

MOTOR ROTATION. TO DO SO WILL CAUSE SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY.

Before installing a pump, check the pump rotation to insure that wiring has been
connected properly to power source, and that the green lead of power cord (See wiring
diagram), is connected to a valid ground, momentarily energize the pump, observing the
directions of kick back due to starting torque. Rotation is correct if kick back is in the
opposite direction of rotation arrow on the pump casing. If rotation is not correct,
switching of any two power leads other than ground will provide the proper rotation.
