Sequence pump 750 series

Hi everyone,

My pump was running fine before the power outage and when the power returned. It is not running. Does anyone have any idea. My guess is it has to do with the power surge when it returned. Has anyone experienced this before? Is the motor burned? Any information will be greatly appreciated!

ps the pump is installed below the water level.

Have you checked the power at the pump receptacle. A breaker may have tripped.

Hi Rich,

I checked everything. The breaker did not trip because my air pump (on the same receptacle and breaker with the water pump) is running after the power returned.

If your pump has not started working after five hours I would say there is a problem. Does it make any noise at all when it is plugged in?

Hi Russell,

No Noise. It is very quiet.

He did. I am offering the pump at no charge as they are pumps I have used in the past.

Nothing to say here, but what a man. It's a good man who offers help when he could be selling help.

Kudos Russell
