SOURCE: my polaris PB4-60 booster pump does not turn over.

I was able to save a service call by doing the following in under 8 minutes:
1.Switch off electric to pump.
2. Turn off valve on supply side of pump so water does not flow during this procedure.
3. Turn offf filter.
4. Unbolt the six bolts (1/2" socket) on the front side of the pump.
5. Carefully separate the pump from the front panel which contained the six bolts.
6. Grasp with both hands the black round thin disk (impeller) which is part of the pump and turn it either clockwise or counter clockwise. It may be slightly difficult initially but once it it freed it will move easily.
7. Reassemble.
8. Open valve and turn on filter and the power to booster pump.
Any questions e-mail me at [email protected] good luck

SOURCE: Just bought a new polaris booster pump (PB4-60)

Have you checked for voltage at the pump motor? Did you wire it correctly? Is the motor 110V or 220V. Did you match the motor to your existing voltage?

Under the back cover is where the wires attach.

Do you know what you are doing? Do you know the difference between 120 VAC and 240 VAC? Do you know what your pump is wired for? Do you know the line voltage coming into your outlet where you will plug in the pump or hard wire it into??

No guessing is allowed here. Death is a possibility. Be sure what you are doing before you touch anything. If not sure, pay an electrician to make this connection.

What about bonding ... does your pool require bonding? Is it bonded? Please check on these things before you begin using your pool.

Thanks for your nterest in FixYa.com

Can you send a scematic showing how to wire an intermatic pool pump timer to a polaris intermatic timer so that when the pool pump shuts off so will the polaris pump yet the polaris timer clock continues...

No. I don't have a wiring schematic without knowing what voltage you are using, specifically what Intermatic timer you have, specifically what wires you have coming from breaker box, what wires are on the pump, and what pump rating plate says, what the wiring diagram shows on side of pump, whether you are wiring a 2-speed pump to a single-speed timer, specifically what is the polaris timer clock, and why this pump needs two timers if that's what you mean.
Add a comment with specific information so electrician is not guessing.

I am replacing an old booster pump with a Polaris PB4-60. I have three wires, One Red, One Blue, and One Green. Now I know the Green is Ground, but which poles do the Red and Blue go? Both seem to say...

It is impossible for us to know what voltage you are running as you did not list that information here.
Typically a green-red-blue comination of wiring suggests 240 VAC connections.

Also, every motor you buy is required to have a wiring diagram on the side of the motor. This should tell you where to connect the wires.
IF you are running 240 v as suspected, both the red and blue wires are "hot" wires on the load side of your timing box. Simply look at the side of the motor and follow the diagram on wiring the pump.

Typically most motors in the USA use a L1 and L2 terminal to connect the 2 "hot " wires.
This pump does come factory wired for 240 volts, so it probably is just 1 each of the "hot" lines to L1 and L2.
Before connecting, make sure you confirm your systems voltage with a multimeter.


Below is a link to the installation manual for this pump. But it does not list electrical diagram since its on the side of the motor.

Looking for wiring instructions for the pb4-60 booster pump

if this is for your polaris booster pump they all have to screws to attach the wires if you have 220 volts it won't matter which wire goes where the longes the pump is rated for 220 volts if you have 120 volts pump is the same just make sure your wires are for 120 volts it won't meter which wire goes on which side just make sure you use L1 AND L2
