PRE-INSTALLATION ASSEMBLY Pressure Control Module Brass Pipe Fitting Pump Outlet Connector Fig. 2 Fig. 3 Assembly of pressure control module to pump Some models are despatched with the pressure control module detached from the pump. To assemble, the brass pipe fitting attached to the control module must be inserted into the pump outlet connector (Fig.

Pump Mounted Below Liquid Source (Flooded Suction Installation) Diagram showing typical Boostamatic installation Fig. 4 with flooded suction and pressure control module mounted directly onto pump. Before deciding where to locate the unit, check to ensure the static inlet head (Fig. 4) meets the minimum requirement of 1 metre and does not exceed the maximum given in the limits of application section.

Typical Submersible Boostamatic Installation Fig. 8 The pumps are supplied with a non-return valve which should be screwed directly into the pump outlet port. The purpose of the valve is to limit back flow and pressure on the pump and ensure discharge pipework is always primed with water. The pumps are also supplied with an outlet adaptor which allows for a range of different pipework connections as follows: G1 - G¾...

Connection Stuart Turner recommend only the use of their 22 mm flexible hoses. The hose and pump are fitted with plastic push-in connectors, which must only be connected with the following: a) 22 mm diameter copper pipe to BS EN 1057 - R250 (half hard) - Table 3.
Check in the mouth of the fitting that 'O'-ring, nylon washer and collet are in position. Collet Outlet Fitting Washer Body Pipe Stop ‘O’-Ring Fig. 10 Push pipe firmly into the fitting, until pencil mark is level with the top of the collet and the pipe stop resistance is felt.

WARNINGS: A residual current device having rated current not exceeding 30 mA MUST be installed in the supply circuit. Isolate power supply before putting your hands in the liquid. The pressure control module must be protected from the elements. Wiring (Surface models except Jet range) The Wires in the mains lead (supply cord) are coloured in accordance with the following code: Green and Yellow: Earth...
Page 16
Wiring (Submersible range) The supply cord that connects the remotely mounted pressure control module to the mains supply is not provided. This cord must be sourced and provided by the installer. Cord selection should be chosen in accordance with the current involved/surrounding conditions and the fuse size required to protect the factory fitted pump supply cord (see fuse section).

If the intermediate connecting cord between the control module and the pump is to be changed or is damaged, it must be replaced with a special cord assembly available from Stuart Turner or one of their approved repairers. On disassembly note the intermediate cords retention and routing systems and reassemble to the same pattern.

Assemble and secure terminal box cover. (Dims. in mm) Fig. 19 Fig. 18 Cable Gland Fitting Instructions (Motor Terminal Box) (Applicable to 330, 500, 600 and Kennet KB6 models) To enable correct assembly of the cable gland, the 'O'-ring (Fig. 20 item 1) must be placed over the cable before the clamping insert (Fig.
If the power cord is to be extended, a cord of the same specification should be used. If the installation is outdoors then any connectors or junction boxes must be specifically suited for outdoor use and installed in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. Any cable routed underground must be protected to local standards.

Ensure electrical supply is compatible with the details that are stated on the pump rating plate. (The wrong voltage or frequency can be dangerous and may damage the pump.) Priming (330, 500, 600, Kennet, Loddon and Thame Range) a) Flooded suction installation The pump must be primed (filled with liquid) before starting.

Priming (Jet 40 and 90 Range) Flooded suction installations see (4a). Suction lift installations with footvalve and strainer see (4b). Suction lift installation, self priming of suction hose. This pump is capable of self priming the suction hose with liquid on installation. It is recommended that the optional suction hose assembly is always used for this application.
Note: When pumps are installed in OEM equipment, please contact the OEM manufacturer for advice. Phone the Stuart Turner Pump Assist team on 0844 98 000 97. Our staff are trained to help and advise you over the phone or arrange for a service engineer to call.

Surface Models 1. No routine maintenance is required, but provision should be made for easy access to the pump to allow repairs due to normal wear and tear. 2. Disconnect electrical supply before working on pump or pressure control module. Turn off liquid supplies to the pump and release pressure by opening liquid outlets before attempting maintenance.
Re- open outlet isolating valve and investigate cause for demand and rectify. Flow detector jammed. Contact Stuart Turner for test procedure. Control module has been remotely Re-position control module (see siting of pump section). re-positioned incorrectly.
