Whirlpool JA5 Bath Pump Tub Spa Pool Circulation

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
2. WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury. do not permit children to use this product unless they are closely supervised at all times.
3. WARNING: Risk of Electrical Shock. Connected only to grounding type receptacle protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter(GFCI). Contact a qualified electrician if you cannot verify that the receptacle is protected by GFCI.
4. CAUTION: Do not bury cord. Locate cord to minimize abuse from lawnmowers, hedge trimmers, and other equipment.
5. CAUTION: In case the running parts will injure people, don’t make the electric pump running before then pipeline have been connected.
6. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock, replace damaged cord immediately.
7. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not use extension cord to connect unit electric supply; provide a properly located outlet.
8. CAUTION: This pump is for used for fix-installed bath tub, It is not suitable for swimming pool spa.
9. Do not install within an outer enclosure or beneath the skirt of a hot tub unless so marked.
10. FOR INDOOR USE ONLY.
11. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

General

These instructions are for correct installation, and optimum performance of the Bath pumps, so they should be read carefully. These are single-stage centrifugal pumps designed to operate with compact hydromassage equipment, They are equipped with a total-emptying system to prevent the discharge of residual liquid in each stopping. Insulation rated over 3.75 volts between the motor and the pump. These units are designed to operate with clean water at a maximum water temperature of 50OC. Built of top quality materials, they are subjected to strict hydraulic and electrical controls and are carefully verified. Correct installation is ensured by following these instructions and those of the wiring diagram; otherwise, over loads may be produced in the motor. We decline responsibility for any damage caused by not following these instructions.

Installation

• The pumps should be installed horizontally, securing them with screws through the holes in the supports to prevent undesirable noise and vibration.
• The suction, pipe of the pump should be as short as possible.
• The rating Label must be visible after installation. Life parts, except parts supplied with safety extra low voltage<12V, must be inaccessible to a person in the bath.
• Class I appliances must be permanently connected to fixed must wiring. Part including electrical components except remote control devices must be located or fixed so that they cannot fall the bath.

Pipe Assembly

• The suction and discharge pipes should have a diameter equal to or greater than that of the intake tapping of the pump.
• Avoid traps as, in addition to affecting efficiency, they impede total overall emptying.
• The suction and discharge pipes should not rest on the pump in any case.
• Seal all the connectors and unions well. Avoid any dripping on the motor, which would unfailingly damage it.

Electical connection

The electrical install action should have a multiple separation system with contacts opening at least 3mm.
For continued protection against possible electric shock this unit is to be mounted to the base in accordance with the installation instructions.

• The protection of the system should be based on a residual current device (RCD) with a rated tripping current not exceeding 30mA. The supply cable should comply with EMC standards (2).Single-phase motors have built-in thermal protection. The diagrams in Fig (1) simplify correct electrical connection. The electric connection must be carried out by qualified staff following strictly the “EM60335-2-60” standard.
• Be sure that the earth cable connection is correctly made.
• Be sure that the equipotential connection between the bath and the pump is correctly made.
• Wires serving as equipotential bonding conductors shall have a cross sectional area between 2.5 and 6mm2 and shall be equipped with the terminal suitable receptacle.
• The pump JA200 can be connected only to a supply with system impedance no more than 0.461 ohm. In case necessary, please consult your supply authority for system impedance information.

Controls Prior to Initial Start-up

• Verify that the pump shaft turns freely.
• Check that the mains voltage and frequency are according to the name plate.
• The hydromassage assembly should be equipped with a system to prevent the pump from starting up if a minimum water level is not present.
• The pump should wait until the water reaches that level.
• Check the rotating direction of the motor, which should concur with that indicated on the fan cover.
• If the motor does not start up, try to locate the problem in the table of most common faults and their possible solutions that is provided further on.
• THE PUMP SHOULD NEVER OPERATE DRY.

Start-up

• Start electrically the pump only when the suction and discharge pipes are connected to the corresponding inlets and outlets. Check that there is no obstacle in the pipes.
• Apply voltage to the motor and suitably adjust the jets to obtain the desired flow.

Maintenance And Clean

• Our pumps for hydromassage facilities do not require any special maintenance or programming.
• If the pump will be idle for a long period of time, it is recommended to disassemble, clean and store it in a dry, well-ventilated place. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person to a hazard.
• Pump can be automotive empty water after correct installation.
• When the pump needs to clean (1) filling with water up to level position of bathtub`s nozzle, (2) operating 2-3mimute,(3) exhausting water of bathtub after engine stop.

Trouble Shooting Guide

PUMP DOES NO TURN

|

NO POWER TO PUMP

| -incoming power to the pump?

-Is circuit breaker on?

-Is  GFCL  operating properly?

-Is  the  air switch  plugged in?

AIR SWITCH DISCONNECTED| -Is the air switch hose connected to the pump?

-Is the air switch hose connected to the actuator button on the tub deck?

PUMP NOT PUMPING PROPERLY

|

BLOCKAGE OR LEAK

| -Jets should be pointed away from the suction inlet so air is not forced into pump suction

-Is the in-tub suction inlet blocked or covered?

-Is there any debris in the pump housing?

-Is there a leak in the piping or the pump?

LOW VOLTAGE

| -Is the proper voltage applied to the pump?

-Is there an extension cord being used?
