1.2 Pool Pump Suction Entrapment Prevention GuidelinesWARNINGPump suction is hazardous and can trap and drown or disembowel bathers. Do not use or operate swim-ming pools, spa, or hot tubs if a suction outlet cover is missing, broken, or loose. The following guidelinesprovide information for pump installation that minimizes the risk of injury to users of pools, spas, and hot tubs:Entrapment Protection - The pump suction system must provide protection against the hazards of suctionentrapment.Suction Outlet Covers - All suction outlets must have correctly installed, screw-fastened covers in place. Allsuction outlet (drain) assemblies and their covers must be properly maintained. Suction outlets (drain) assem-blies and their covers must be listed/certified to the latest version of ANSI®/ASME® A112.19.8 or its successorstandard, ANSI/APSP-16. They must be replaced if cracked, broken, or missing.Number of Suction Outlets Per Pump - Provide at least two (2) hydraulically-balanced main drains, with cov-ers, as suction outlets for each circulating pump suction line. The centers of the main drains (suction outlets) onany one (1) suction line must be at least three (3) feet apart, center to center. See Figure 1.The system must be built to include at least two (2) suction outlets (drains) connected to the pump wheneverthe pump is running. However, if two (2) main drains run into a single suction line, the single suction line may beequipped with a valve that will shut off both main drains from the pump. The system shall be constructed suchthat it shall not allow for separate or independent shutoff or isolation of each drain. See Figure 1.More than one (1) pump can be connected to a single suction line as long as the requirements above are met.Water Velocity - The maximum water velocity through the suction outlet assembly and its cover for any suc-tion outlet must not exceed the suction fitting assembly and it’s cover’s maximum design flow rate. The suctionoutlet (drain) assembly and its cover must comply with the latest version of ANSI/ASME A112.19.8, the standardfor Suction Fittings For Use in Swimming Pools, Wading Pools, Spas, and Hot Tubs, or its successor standard,ANSI/APSP-16.If 100% of the pump’s flow comes from the main drain system, the maximum water velocity in the pump suc-tion hydraulic system must be six (6) feet per second or less, even if one (1) main drain (suction outlet) is com-pletely blocked. The flow through the remaining main drain(s) must comply with the latest version of ANSI/ASMEA112.19.8 or its successor standard, ANSI/APSP-16, the standard for Suction Fittings For Use in SwimmingPools, Wading Pools, Spas, and Hot Tubs.Testing and Certification - Suction outlet assemblies and their covers must have been tested by a nationallyrecognized testing laboratory and found to comply with the latest version of ANSI/ASME A112.19.8 or its succes-sor standard, ANSI/APSP-16, the standard for Suction Fittings For Use in Swimming Pools, Wading Pools, Spas,and Hot Tubs.Fittings - Fittings restrict flow; for best efficiency use fewest possible fittings (but at least two (2) suction outlets).Avoid fittings which could cause an air trap.Pool cleaner suction fittings must conform to applicable International Association of Plumbing and MechanicalOfficials (IAPMO) standards.SUCTION HAZARD. Can cause serious injury or death. Do not use this pump forwading pools, shallow pools or spas containing bottom drains, unless the pump isconnected to at least two (2) functioning suction outlets.WARNINGCAUTIONThe 3-phase SHPF series pumps utilize non-thermally protected motor assemblies. NRTL Listed Motor Controllerwith internal motor running overload protection or external motor running overload are required during the finalinstallation of the pump assembly. Overloads shall be set at a maximum of 125% of the full-load current rating ofthe pump motor assembly.Page 5ENGLISHJandy ® Pro Series Stealth ™ Pumps | Operation Manual
