Insure that the power supply corresponds with thatshown on the nameplate of the motor and controlbox. (if required).2. Install pump and components appropriate for thetest as shown in Fig. 1.3. Make sure power supply is turned off and circuitbreaker or disconnect switch is open. Makeelectrical connections appropriate to your motor asshown in Fig. 2, 3 or 4.4. THREE-PHASE UNIT - A three-phase motorrequires a magnetic starter equipped with quick-trip,ambient compensated heaters of correct size for thehorsepower of the motor. To insure correct rotationof three-phase units, brace pump shell securely andapply power momentarily by snapping line switchquickly on and off.2

If rotation is correct, reaction of the shell will beclockwise when viewed from pump discharge(that is, pump shaft will rotate counter clockwise).Interchange any two leads at magnetic starter toreverse rotation.5. Run pump and motor unit for a few seconds toensure that it is in working order.FIGURE 1 - Installation Diagram2.

IT IS ALWAYS BESTTO CONFIRM THAT THE PUMP/MOTOR ASSEMBLYDOES NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM WEIGHT LIMITOF THE CABLE SELECTED.Note: Keep pump at least 5’ frombottom of well and above well screenor casing perforations.MotorWell Screen orCasing PerforationsSUITABILITY OF WELLInstall the pump only in a well that has been properlydeveloped. Water from an undeveloped well often containsan excessive amount of sand, dirt, and abrasives whichcan damage the pump. Check that the well is large enoughto allow the pump to be set at the required depth. Do notset the pump below the casing perforations or well screenunless you make arrangements to ensure an adequateflow of water over the motor for cooling purposes.Determine the correct pump setting from the driller’srecord by taking into account the static water level and thedrawdown at the proposed pumping rate. Keep the pumpat least five feet from the bottom of a drilled well.SPLICING THE POWER CABLEFollow the instructions enclosed in the cable splicingkit you purchase.DROP PIPEDrop pipe is recommended for suspendingsubmersible pumps into the well. Please refer to pipemanufacturer for recommendations on depth andpressure. Give special consideration to:CHECK VALVESIt is recommended that one or more check valvesalways be used in submersible pump installations. Ifthe pump does not have a built-in check valve, an inlinecheck valve should be installed in the discharge linewithin 25 feet of the pump and below the draw downlevel of the water supply. For deeper settings, checkvalves should be installed per the manufacturer'srecommendations. More than one check valve is oftenneeded, but more than the recommended number ofcheck valves should not be used.Swing type check valves are not acceptable and shouldnever be used with submersible motors/pumps. Swingtype check valves have a slower reaction time whichcan cause water hammer (see next page). Internalpump check valves or spring loaded check valves closequickly and help eliminate water hammer.NOTE: Only positive sealing check valves should beused in submersible installations. Although drilling thecheck valve or using drain-back check valves mayprevent back spinning, they create upthrust and waterhammer problems.Check valves are used to hold pressure in the systemwhen the pump stops. They also prevent backspin,water hammer and upthrust. Any of these can lead toearly pump or motor failure.A. Backspin - With no check valve or a failed checkvalve, the water in the drop pipe and the water in thesystem can flow down the discharge pipe when the motorstops. This can cause the pump to rotate in a reversedirection. If the motor is started while it is backspinning,1. A safety cable to prevent loss of pump if pipeshould break.3

an excessive force is placed across the pump-motorassembly that can cause impeller damage, motor orpump shaft breakage, excessive bearing wear, etc.B. Upthrust - With no check valve, a leaking checkvalve, or drilled check valve, the unit starts under a zerohead condition. This causes an uplifting or upthrust onthe impeller-shaft assembly in the pump. This upwardmovement carries across the pump-motor coupling andcreates an upthrust condition in the motor. Repeatedupthrust can cause premature failure of both the pumpand the motor.C. Water Hammer - If the lowest check valve is more than30 feet above the standing (lowest static) water level, or alower check valve leaks and the check valve above holds,a vacuum is created in the discharge piping. On the nextpump start, water moving at very high velocity fills the voidand strikes the closed check valve and the stationary waterin the pipe above it, causing a hydraulic shock. This shockcan split pipes, break joints and damage the pump and/or motor. Water hammer can often be heard or felt. Whendiscovered, the system should be shut down and the pumpinstaller contacted to correct the problem.REMOVABLE POPPET CHECK VALVE4" submersible pumps with a 1-1/4" discharge aresupplied with a spring-loaded REMOVABLE poppetstyle check valve assembly. The check valve can beremoved from the pump discharge when the pump isinstalled in applications where drain back is desired.W A R N I N G Fluid draining back through the pumpcan cause the pump to rotate backwards. If pump/motor starts during this time; damage to the pumpcan occur.The check valve can be removed with the use of theT-Handle Poppet Wrench(part no. 23498207), orderedseparately, or, with standard needle nose pliers. Thepoppet assembly is left hand threaded and is removedby turning CLOCKWISE.If reinstalling a Popppet Check Valve assembly, theassembly should be tightened to 15 inch-pounds.Poppet AssemblyT-Handle Poppet WrenchINSTALLATION OF PUMP, DROP PIPE, ANDASSOCIATED EQUIPMENTFig. 1 illustrates a typical well installation showing inground components. Franklin recommends the followingprocedure when installing the pump and drop pipe:1. Prior to fastening the pump/motor assembly tothe drop pipe, confirm that the motor’s lead wiresare securely housed under lead guard which wassupplied with the pump. Fastening screws have beenprovided for use during the lead guard’s installation.2. Fasten the submersible cable to the drop pipe withclamps or appropriate tape every 10 ft. (3m) toprevent tangling and damage to the cable. The cablemust remain slack when using plastic drop pipe toallow for stretching of pipe when installed in the well.3. Take care not to scrape or pinch the submersiblecable against the well casing.4. Use an ohmmeter or megger to make insulation andcontinuity checks on the cable once the pump isinstalled. This locates any fault in the cable.5. Make sure system check valves are installedproperly. See previous sections of this manual forfurther information on check valve placement, type,and troubleshooting.6. Install a torque arrestor just above the pump toprevent chafing the cable when pump and pipe twistduring starting and stopping.7. Attach a safety cable to pump to prevent loss ofpump if pipe should break.NOTICE: IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT STEEL CABLEBE USED FOR THE PURPOSES OF SECURING THEPUMP. 3/16" DIAMETER TO 1/4" DIAMETER BRAIDEDSTEEL CABLE IS SUFFICIENT TO SUPPORT MOSTPUMP/MOTOR SYSTEMS. IT IS ALWAYS BEST TOCONFIRM THAT THE PUMP/MOTOR SYSTEM DOES NOTEXCEED THE MAXIMUM WEIGHT LIMIT OF THE CABLESELECTED.8. Place a sanitary well seal or pitless adapter withan approved cover plate over top of well permanufacturers recommendations.9. Keep pump at least 5’ (1.5m) from bottom of well andabove well screen or casing perforations.4

ELECTRICAL INFORMATION1. Employ a licensed electrician to perform thewiring. All wiring must be done in accordance withapplicable national and local electrical codes.2. Check that the power supply corresponds with theelectrical rating of the submersible motor and thecontrol box(if required). Make sure that the control boxelectrical rating matches the motor electrical rating.3. Every installation requires a fused disconnect switchor circuit breaker.4. Every installation must be grounded. There must bea reliable ground connection between the pump andthe distribution panel. The motor lead incorporates agreen grounding conductor.5. Lightning arrestors are recommended for everyinstallation. All stainless steel, single phase motorsthru 5HP have built-in lightning arrestors. Any 6” motoror 4”, 3-phase motor requires a separate lightningarrestor installed as close to the wellhead as possible.Install the arrestor in accordance with manufacturersrecommendations. A lightning arrestor providesprotection against induced voltage surges on6. Mount the control box in an area protected from rain,snow, direct sunlight or other high temperatures asthis may cause tripping of the overload protector.Also protect the control box from extreme cold(below 25oF/-32oC) as this may have adverse effectson starting capacitor.8. A three-wire, single-phase pump requires a motorcontrol box incorporating overload relays. Fig. 3shows a typical wiring diagram for a three-wire,single-phase installation. Note that a magneticcontactor must be used if the pressure switchelectrical rating is not sufficient to handle thesubmersible motor electrical rating. The pressureswitch would then be incorporated into a pilotcircuit to control the magnetic contactor. Makethe connections at the control box in accordancewith the wiring diagram in the control box to avoiddamage to the motor.FIGURE 3 - 3-WIRE, 1-Phase, 1/2 thru 3 HPPump Wiring DiagramPressure Switch (for pilot circuit)If Magnetic Contactor is usedfor starting.Note: Order of red, yellow and black mayvary from control box to control box.Always connect like colors.Single-PhaseControl BoxCircuit Breakeror Fused Disconnect SwitchL1 L2 R Y BRedIncoming 1 Phase PowerYellowSwitch or Timer (for direct switching) ORMagnetic Contactor (w/ pilot circuit)Black1-Phase Sumbersible Motor7. A two-wire pump does not require a motor controlbox, since all electrical components are built insidethe motor.

9. A three-phase pump does not require a motorcontrol box . Fig. 4 shows a typical wiring diagramfor a 3-wire, three-phase installation. A magneticcontractor with 3-leg protection having quick-tripambient compensated overload relays must beused.FIGURE 4 - 3-Wire, 3-Phase, 1-1/2 thru 50 HPPump Wiring DiagramCircuit Breaker ORFused Disconnect SwitchPressure SwitchMagnetic Contactor w/3-leg protection havingquick-trip ambientconpensated overload relaysLOW-YIELDING WELLA low-yielding well exists when the output from thepump is greater than the yield of the well. It canreduce the water level to the suction screen so thata mixture of air and water enters the pump. Pumpingmay stop since the pump cannot generate pressurewith insufficient water. In this case, the column of wateralready in the drop pipe holds the check valve closedand an airlock may develop inside the pump. Becausethe conditions ensure neither adequate lubrication ofthe pump nor proper cooling for the motor, damagecan result if power is not cut off quickly. Use one ormore of the following methods to correct and/or protectthis installation.1. Install additional length of drop pipe to place pumplower in well if possible.Incoming 3-Phase Power2. Install a Franklin Pumptec or similar electronicdrawdown sensor.3-Phase Submersible Motor10. Use an ohmeter to make continuity and insulationchecks after the installation is completed.11. Place the additional motor label with the pump labeland place both in the disconnect switch or circuitbreaker box for future reference.WELL TESTCheck the pump and well performance before makingthe final connection to the discharge system.1. Install a gate valve on the end of the pipe. Partiallyopen the valve.2. Start the pump.3. Open valve gradually to give full flow.4. If the discharge is not clear, let the pump run untilwater clears. If water does not clear in 30 minutes,stop the pump and take the necessary steps tocorrect the condition. After the water has appearedclear, check for sand by discharging into a cleanbucket or suitable container.5. Close valve until maximum required system flowrate is obtained (this should correspond to the cut-inpressure of the pressure switch). Ensure that theoutput of the pump at this setting is not greaterthan the yield of the well. This can be checked bymonitoring the well drawdown level and ensuringthat the level is stable at the maximum requiredsystem flow rate.C A U T I O N Never run pump unless it iscompletely submerged in water. If run withoutwater, the pump and motor could be damaged.Note also that air drawn into the pump can causean airlock under certain conditions.63. Install a floatless liquid level control. This deviceconsists of an electrical relay activated by currentsflowing through the ground-return circuits ofelectrodes hung in the well. The lower (STOP)electrode, just above the pump, ensures that thewater level can never be pumped down to thesuction screen. The upper (START) electrode, justbelow the lowest static water level, ensures thatthe pump can start again as soon as the well hasrecovered. A floatless liquid level control worksin series with the pressure switch. Refer to themanufacturers instructions provided with control.4. Install a flow control valve in the discharge lineupstream from the pressure switch. This restrictsthe output from the pump without affecting the ratethat water can be drawn from the pressure tank.Nevertheless, a heavy demand for water couldempty the pressure tank, so a tank with a bondeddiaphragm, air cell, or water bag is recommended.5. Install a smaller pump to avoid over pumping thewell. Have dealer size pump to the well yield.6. Install a low-pressure cut-off switch. A low pressurecut off switch, or a pressure switch with such anarrangement built in, protects a shallow-well pumpfrom losing its prime, but it does not always providesatisfactory protection to a submersible pump fromthe effects of over pumping the well. This is becauseit responds to a loss of pressure at the surface,which may occur after an air lock has formed insidethe pump. We recommend either a floatless liquidlevel control or a flow control valve, in that order,in preference to a low-pressure cutoff switch asprotection against over pumping.

DISCHARGE PLUMBINGFig. 1 illustrates a typical well installation showingabove ground components. Adhere to the followingitems when installing the discharge plumbing.1. Install an above ground check valve upstream fromthe pressure switch.2. Always install a pressure relief valve in the system.The relief valve should be capable of discharging theflow rate of the pump at the rated working pressureof the pressure tank. Locate the relief valve close tothe pressure tank.3. Install a pressure switch between the check valveand the pressure tank. Refer to Fig. 2, 3, or 4 forproper wiring connections of pressure switch.4. Install a pressure tank as close as possible tothe pressure switch. Refer to manufacturer’srecommendations for installation.TROUBLESHOOTING1. PUMP FAILS TO STARTa) Electrical trouble - call dealer or electrician.b) Drawdown protection device has pump turned off.c) Overload tripped.d) Reset low pressure cutoff switch (if installed).2. PUMP FAILS TO DELIVER WATERa) Air lock in pump.b) Clogged intake screen.c) Insufficient well yield.3. PUMP GIVES REDUCED OUTPUTa) Insufficient well yield.b) Worn pump.c) Clogged intake screen.d) Low voltage.e) Incorrect rotation (3-phase only).4. PUMP CYCLES TOO FREQUENTLYa) Excessive pressure drop between pressure switchand pressure tank.b) “Cut-in” pressure at pressure tank too high.c) “Cut-out” pressure at pressure tank too low.d) Waterlogged pressure tank.e) Start and stop electrodes of floatless liquid levelcontrol set too close together.f) Tank sized too small to meet system requirements.5. OVERLOADS TRIPa) Electrical trouble - call dealer or electrician.6. PRESSURE SWITCH CYCLES RAPIDLY WHENPUMP STARTSa) Pressure switch too far from pressure tank.b) Adjust air charge of tank to manufacturer’srecommendations.7
