1.05 Electric Power
For Model 8905
Compare the pump motor rating, printed on a label on the side of the motor and on the serial number tag,
to the power source, to be sure they agree in voltage, phase, and frequency. Pump installation must
comply with local electrical codes which dictate appropriate protection devices such as fuses or circuit
breakers. Know the location of the circuit breaker protecting the electrical outlet for the pump.
For Models 8907, 8912 & 8917
Compare the pump motor rating, printed on a label on the side of the motor and on the serial number tag,
to the power source, to be sure they agree in voltage, phase, and frequency. Pump installation must
comply with local electrical codes which dictate appropriate protection devices such as fuses or circuit
breakers. Know the location of the circuit breaker protecting the electrical outlet for the pump.
Only the Models 8907C, 8912C and 8917C have “global motors” that operate over a wide range of
voltages (100-120V, 200-30V). They also operate at frequencies of 50Hz and 60 Hz.
Power is single phase.
For Models 8920 & 8925
Compare the pump motor rating, printed on a label on the side of the motor and on the serial number tag,
to the power source, to be sure they agree in voltage, phase, and frequency. Pump installation must
comply with local electrical codes which dictate appropriate protection devices such as fuses or circuit
breakers. Know the location of the circuit breaker protecting the electrical outlet for the pump.
CAUTION
Make certain the power settings on the pump match your power
source before attempting to operate the pump.
