INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL
Intelligent Tones
Your nextec pump features a self‑diagnostic system that will aid you in troubleshooting should the need arise. The pump will emit a series of tones; note the order and number
ofhighand low pitched tones to determine the fault condition.
Depending on the condition the pump senses, it will generate either a 3-tone code, or a 4-tone code:
3-Tone codes indicate an application fault; something dealing with the installation of the pump, like a priming or supply voltage concern.
4-Tone codes indicate a pump fault; a condition outside the operating parameters of the pump, like an over‑temperature condition, or something dealing with
thepumpsinternalelectronics.
Refer to the table below to determine which condition your pump is detecting, and how to resolve it. In the chart below, arrows pointing up () indicate high tones,
arrowspointingdown() indicate low tones. Conditions listed in BOLD are not field serviceable, and require the pump to be returned to the manufacturer.
3-Tone Faults (Application / Installation faults)
Tones Condition Solution
↑ ↓ ↓
Low input voltage (auto shut‑off) Check input wiring gauge, length, and connections
↑ ↓ ↑
High input voltage (auto‑shut off) Check incoming voltage
↓ ↑ ↑
Locked rotor (auto shutoff) Turn switch off and inspect rotor and vanes*
↓ ↑ ↓
Priming / Suction / Lift failure
Check for leaks in suction tube, inlet connections, inside tank plumbing restrictions, excessive vertical suction lift,
empty tank
4-Tone Faults (Hardware faults)
Tones Condition Solution
↓ ↑ ↑ ↑
Hardware fault (auto shut-off) Troubleshoot as described below**
↓ ↑ ↓ ↓
Hardware overtemperature (auto‑shut off) Turn switch off and allow pump to cool*
↓ ↓ ↑ ↑
Motor overtemperature (auto shut‑off) Turn switch off and allow pump to cool*
↓ ↓ ↑ ↓
Motor overvoltage (auto shut-off) Troubleshoot as described below**
↓ ↓ ↓ ↑
Motor undervoltage(auto shut-off) Troubleshoot as described below**
*This condition will shut the motor off. To restart the motor, cycle the switch off, then back on, or cycle power to motor.
** Prior to returning pump to place of purchase, perform this procedure: cycle the switch off and disconnect power for at least one minute. Reconnect power, and cycle the
switch back on. Verify proper pump operation. If this procedure does not restart the pump, or if you have additional questions, contact Customer Service at 1-800-634-2695.
