How to Wire a Pentair SUPERFLO® VS Variable Speed Pump

What makes the SuperFlo VS Variable Speed pump unique is that it can run off of 115 volts or 230 volts without any problems. It is the only VS pump on the market that can actually work with older pool equipment set up on a 120 volt breaker. This makes the SuperFlo VS perfect for your older pool which is probably equipment with a pump that is sucking a lot of power as it is running. Many of my customers have wanted to switch to a Variable Speed pump to save money on their energy cost but couldn't since a traditional VS pump uses 230 volts to operate. Actually running a pump off of 120 volts is very inefficient so the SuperFlo VS makes switching pumps even more attractive. The wiring of the SuperFlo VS couldn't be easier. There are just 3 connections inside, one for the green ground wire and two others for the load wires. The beauty of this pump it that all you need to do is connect the green ground wire to the green screw and it doesn't matter where you connect the other two Load wires. So if you are running 115 volts you would connect either the white or black wire to either Load (L1) or Load (L2). For a 230 Volt wiring you can connect the black wire and red wire to either L1 or L2. Sometimes you will have two red wires with 230 Volts and sometimes you will have odd colored wires with 115 Volt connections. It really isn't a big deal as the wiring scheme is very simple. If you are connecting the SuperFlo VS to an automated system/ external control you will need to order the Pentair External Wiring Kit #353129Z. The wiring diagram for the relays can be found in the manual. It is not overly complicated but it would be best if you contacted a certified Pentair Warranty Installer so they the pump is connected properly. For most homeowners you will be using the Pentair SuperFlo VS to replace your existing pump connected to a standard time clock. As far as the time clock goes you can leave it and just remove the on/off trippers. You can remove it and splice the load wires together but in many cases there is other equipment attached. So leaving the timer is perfectly fine and a common practice. A couple of things to note. The wires need to ge pretty high up in the back of the motor, so make sure you have enough slack on the wires. You may need to replace them if you don't. Also, make sure you connect the bonding wire to prevent potential electrical shock. It is rare but can happen. Note that most people will use 120/115/110 volts interchangeably which is referring to the same thing. A 120 volt breaker is what your household plugs work off of. But the power does drop down to 115 volts and the 110 volts reference is old and has stuck around. 220 volts is the same as 230/240 volts but 208 volts is different. I am always saying 110 volts in my videos out of habit.
