New Deep Well Installation 7

For parts or assistance, call Simer Customer Service at 1-800-468-7867

4” Or Larger Well (Figure 10)

1. Install the control valve and pressure gauge in the pump body. See

Figure 7.

2. Assemble ejector kit FP4800 (kit sold separately). See Figure10. Follow

the instructions included with the kit in order to match the nozzle and

venturi to your well conditions.

3. Mount the pump as close to the well as possible.

4. Connect two pipes (1” drive, 1-1/4” suction) to the ejector and lower

the ejector into the well until it is five feet from the bottom. It should

also be at least 10 feet below the well’s water level while the pump is

running in order to prevent the pump from sucking air.

5. Install a sanitary well seal and connect the ejector piping to the pump.

Use steel nipples through the well seal with flexible poly pipe to avoid

crushing the plastic pipe when tightening the seal.

6. Support the pipe so that there are no dips or sags in the pipe, so it

doesn’t strain the pump body, and so that it slopes slightly upward

from the well to the pump (high spots can cause air pockets which can

air lock the pump). Seal the suction pipe joints with Teflon™ tape or

a Teflon™ based pipe joint compound. Joints must be air- and water-

tight. If the suction pipe can suck air, the pump cannot pull water from

thewell.

You have just completed the plumbing for your new double pipe deep well

jet pump. Please go to Page 8 for discharge pipe and tank connections.

2” Well (Figure 11)

1. Install the control valve and pressure gauge in the pump body. See

Figure 7.

2. Mount the pump as close to the well as possible.

3. Assemble ejector kit FP4840 (kit sold separately), well piping, and

well head adapter according to the instructions provided with the

ejector package. See Figure 11. Use galvanized drop pipe with turned

couplings to allow proper flow. Follow the instructions included with

the kit in order to match the nozzle and venturi to your wellconditions.

4. Run two pipes (one smaller drive pipe, one larger suction pipe) from

the well to the pump. Support the pipe so that there are no dips or sags

in the pipe, so it doesn’t strain the pump body, and so that it slopes

slightly upward from the well to the pump (high spots can cause air

pockets which can air lock the pump). Seal the suction pipe joints with

Teflon™ tape or a Teflon™ based pipe joint compound. Joints must be

air- and water-tight. If the suction pipe can suck air, the pump cannot

pull water from the well.

You have just completed the plumbing for your new single pipe deep well

jet pump. Please go to Page 8 for discharge pipe and tank connections.
