Electric Installation - Franklin Electric BT4 Serie Guide D'utilisation

DISCHARGE PIPE SIZES FOR INSTALLATION
When the pump is located at a distance from points of
water use, it is necessary to increase the discharge pipe
size in order to reduce friction loss. The friction loss in a
system increases:
1. As the flow rate increases
2. As the piping size decreases
Refer to the included BT4 performance tables (Appendix
1) and friction loss tables (Appendix 2) to determine the
amount of head lost for a given application.

ELECTRIC INSTALLATION

W A R N I N G
Hazardous voltage can shock, burn, or
cause death.
C A U T I O N Improper wiring can result in permanent
damage to the motor. Pump connection must comply
with National Electric Code (NEC) or Canadian Electric
Code (CEC), and all applicable local codes.
C A U T I O N If you are not sure of the proper electrical
connections, employ a competent electrician for the
installation. This ensures the installation complies with all
noted electrical codes.
NOTICE: READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS!
All dual voltage pump/motor assemblies come factory
preset for 230 volts.
Disconnect power at electrical panel before making
any electrical connections.
Supply voltage must be +/- 10% of motor nameplate
voltage. Low or high voltage can damage the motor
and will void the warranty. If possible, connect pump to
dedicated branch circuit with no other appliances on it.
Do not operate pump unless pump is grounded.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, be certain that
cord connected pumps are connected only to a properly
grounded, grounding-type receptacle. For pumps
without a cord, use permanently enclosed three or four
conductor wiring such as conduit or BX cable. To ground
the pump, attach the ground wire to the motor frame by
the green grounding screw provided inside the motor,
behind the motor end cap, and by attaching the other
wires to line terminals on the terminal board. If motor
is dual voltage, a wiring diagram is provided on the
nameplate or under the motor end cap.
NOTICE: If you purchased a 3-phase pump/motor
assembly, the motor rotation must be checked after
priming the pump, but before continuous operation.
Check the rotation by "bumping" the power to the
motor and observing the coupling rotation. Reverse the
rotation as instructed on the motor if it does not match
the rotation arrow on the bracket. If you purchased a
pump end and are attaching a three-phase motor, the
rotation must be checked before the pump is connected
to the motor. See "Installing Motor on Pump Ends" in
this manual. A fused disconnect switch or circuit breaker
should be placed at or near the pump.

DUAL VOLTAGE ADJUSTMENT (Single-phase pump
motor assemblies only)
NOTE: To change the motor voltage (Figure 5) unplug
the dual voltage connector on the motor and reconnect it
in the position required to match the available
electrical system.
The motor can be set for 115 volts or 230 volts. The
voltage setting of the motor can be determined by
looking at the alignment of the arrow on the plug and
the arrow on the motor terminal board (located under
the motor's end cover). Any questions on voltage setting
requirements for proper motor and pump operation
in your system should be directed to an electrical
professional. The factory preset is 230 volts.

115V
NOTICE: Check motor terminal cover or nameplate for
wiring instructions. The basic pump motor facts for the
standard product offering are as follows:
1. 3450 rpm
2. Single-phase
3. Dual Voltage, 115/230 V, for 1/2 through 2 hp; 230 V
only for 3 hp models
4. 1/2, 3/4, 1, 1-1/2, 2, and 3 horsepower single-phase
motors are wired for 230 volts as a factory standard.
(3 hp is 230 V only, other may be switched to 115 V
if needed.)
NOTE: All wiring is subject to official inspection and
must conform to the local electrical code. Install a circuit
breaker or fused disconnect switch near the pump.
