PowerMax PMWP3G-12V Manual

PUMP FAILS TO TURN OFF AFTER ALL FIXTURES ARE CLOSED
• Punctured diaphragm.
• Discharge line leak.
• Defective pressure switch.
• Insufficient voltage.
• Clogged valves in pump head.
LOW FLOW AND PRESSURE
• Air leak at pump intake.
• Accumulation of debris inside pump or plumbing.
• Worn pump bearing (possibly accompanied by loud noise).
• Punctured diaphragm.
• Defective motor.
NOISY
• Check if the mounting feet are compressed too tightly.
• Is the mounting surface flexible? If so, it may be adding noise.
• Check for loose head/screws.
• If the pump is plumbed with rigid pipe, then it may transmit noise more easily.
ACAUTION
Please do follow the instruction manual to install the product. Any action outside what is recommended in this
manual may bring damage to the pump. Any inappropriate installation or operation that causes the pump damage
is not covered by warranty.

PMWP3G-12V Pump Manual
An incredible feature list, high quality components, plus amazing performance. The three-chamber high
volume design, driven by a heavy-duty motor produces flow rates of 3 GPM, capable of self-priming up to 6
vertical feet, and can run dry, making it the price to performance leader. This pump also offers a variety of easy
connect fittings and filters.
FEATURES
• 3 chamber diaphragm pump • Run dry capable for normal workloads
• Intermittent duty • Automatic: controlled by pressure switch
• Industry standard mounting pattern • Ignition protected
APPLICATIONS
• Yacht/RV/caravan pressurized water system
• Sprayer fixtures (vehicle-mounted sprayers, electric sprayers)
• Cleaning machines, humidifier, water purification, medical apparatus
• Food beverage filling & liquid transfer
• Solar water system
• Any other pressurization system
INSTALLATION
Materials
1 diaphragm pump with related accessories
2 (at least) pieces of flexible, reinforced hose piping, with collapsing strength of twice the inlet collapsing
pressure( hose must be minimum 1/2" ID )
4 stainless steel hose clamps and screws
4 screws to fasten the pump to the mounting surface
1 electrical cutoff switch
1 fuse
1 screwdriver
1 strong cutting implement for tubing
(if desired) Teflon tape or sealant
Setup
1. The pump may be mounted in any position. If mounted vertically, the pump head should be in the down
position to avoid leakage into the motor casing in the event of a malfunction.
2. Secure the feet, but do not compress them. Overtightening the securing screws may reduce their ability to
dissipate noise and vibration.
3. Intake hose must be minimum 1/2" (13 mm) ID reinforced hose. Main distribution line from pump outlet should
also be 1/2" (13 mm) ID with branch and individual supply lines to outlets no smaller than 3/8"(10 mm).
4. Plumb the system using high pressure (2x pump rating), braided, flexible tubing to minimize vibration/ noise.
5. Do not apply inlet pressure in excess of 30 psi. In general, try to avoid any inlet pressure completely.
