What to do if there is an obstruction in the suction piping of Pentair Sta-Rite J Water Pump?
If there is an obstruction in the suction piping of your Pentair Water Pump, locate and remove the obstruction.
What to do if Pentair Sta-Rite J pressure rating is exceeded?
If the pressure required by the system at the design flow rate exceeds the pressure rating of the Pentair Water Pump, compare the pump pressure and flow rate against the pump characteristic curve. Check for closed or partially closed valves in the discharge piping system. Alternatively, reduce the system pressure requirement or increase the pressure capability of the pump.
How to troubleshoot no voltage on one phase in Pentair Sta-Rite J Water Pump?
If there is no voltage on one phase of your three-phase Pentair Water Pump, check the phase voltage on the line side of the starter contactor and isolate the open circuit (circuit breaker, fuse, broken connections, etc.).
What to do if Pentair Water Pump pressure exceeds system requirements?
If the pressure rating of the Pentair Water Pump exceeds the pressure requirement of the system at the design flow rate, compare the pump pressure and flow rate against the pump characteristic curve. Also, inspect the discharge piping system for breaks, leaks, open bypass valves, etc. If necessary, reduce the flow rate by partially closing the discharge valve.
