Supreme Mag-Drive Utility Pumps

Supreme Mag-Drive Pumps have been designed and manufactured using the latest developments in magnets technology. The pump consists of a power unit encased in waterproof epoxy which creates a magnetic field. This drives a powerful ceramic magnetic impeller, the only moving part.

The Mag-Drive Model 5:

• Is extremely energy efficient. Over 50% savings compared to equivalent conventional pumps.
• Is virtually maintenance-free. No seals to wear out, no contaminating oils.
• Can be used in either salt or freshwater environments.
• Can be used for submersible or in-line applications.

To Remove/Attach Base Plate

To remove the base, strike with moderate force in the direction toward the pump cover. The latch will bend and the base will slide off the housing. To attach the base, slide the base (latch first) on the pump cover side of the housing. Slide the base onto the dovetail mounting tracks until the latch snaps, locking it in place. Inline piping. Centrifugal pumps cannot pull water from a lower level. In order to start, pump must be below water level and filled with water. Unless the air can escape from the outlet, the pump will not start. Do not use glues or solvents to connect the pump's threaded fittings. Use teflon pipe tape. The pump cover is not designed to support long pipe runs or correct pipe misalignment.

Service and Maintenance

The housing should occasionally be removed to clean and inspect the impeller assembly. The impeller is the only serviceable item and can be pulled out of the body. Do not take the impeller apart. If it is worn or broken the entire impeller assembly should be replaced. This will restore the pump to original capacity. Pumps taken out of service for an extended period with fluid inside run the risk of forming a crust which may prevent subsequent starting. Saltwater should be flushed out with fresh water. Always check cord for sharp bends which can cause premature cracking. Do not use power cord to lift or move pump.

Caution

The pump is intended to pump water only. It cannot be used to pump oils, solvents or gasoline. Although the pump will continue to run if there is no water, after 30 minutes damage may occur if allowed to run dry.

Electrical Precautions

Always use a properly grounded outlet. Do not immerse plug in water. Do not reach into water to remove plug. Turn off circuit first. A "drip loop" should be provided. The "drip loop" is a loop in the cord below the level of the receptacle or plug that prevents water from traveling along the cord. The National Electrical Code requires that a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) be installed in the branch circuit supplying fountain or pond equipment. See your local electrical supply dealer for various brands of GFCI. Never remove ground pin from plug.

Warning

For your protection always disconnect pump from its power source before installing or servicing.
