  • Page 4: Introduction

    The submersible R Series pumps are designed to pump water. The RX Series pumps are designed to pump corrosive liquids in concentrations chemically compatible with 316SS and FKM. The R & RX Series pumps are not explosion- proof. They are not designed to pump volatile or flammable liquids.

  • Page 5: Safety

    SAFETY Pump installations are seldom identical. Each installation and application can vary due to many different factors. It is the owner/service mechanics responsibility to repair, service, and test to ensure that the pump integrity is not compromised according to this manual.

  • Page 6: Inspection

    INSPECTION Review all safety information before servicing pump. The following are recommended installation practices/procedures for the pump. If there are questions in regards to your specific application, contact your local BJM Pumps distributor or BJM Pumps, LLC. PRE-INSTALLATION INSPECTION 1) Check the pump for damage that may have occurred during shipment.

  • Page 7: Pump Installation

    BJM Pumps, LLC at 860-399-5937. As a general rule, R and RX Series top discharge pumps can pump down to a level above the suction screen. Pumping lower than screen will permit air to enter the pump and cavitate, lose prime or become air bound.

  • Page 8: Pump Rotation

    PUMP ROTATION Two ways to check the correct pump rotation: 1. By looking at the impeller; the rotation of the impeller should be counter clockwise as shown in the picture below. 2. By looking from the top of the pump. Since the impeller cannot be seen, the best way to check the rotation is to check the kick back motion of the pump when the pump just starts.

  • Page 9: Pump Operation

    PUMP OPERATION This pump is designed to handle dirty water that contains some solids. It is not designed to pump volatile or flammable liquids. Do not attempt to pump any liquids which may damage the pump or endanger personnel as a result of pump failure.

The three prong plug must be inserted into a mating three prong grounded receptacle.

  • Page 13: Trouble Shooting

    Typical 3 phase Auto Control 1 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.
