INCREASES PURE WATER PRODUCTION FOR ALL RO SYSTEMS 600 GPD AND
UNDER.
RAISES THE INPUT PRESSURE TO 80PSI.
CAN SIPHON FROM A RAIN BARREL OR TANK AND PRODUCE THE FULL PUMP
PRESSURE.
NEEDS ZERO PSI OF INCOMING WATER PRESSURE TO PRODUCE THE FULL FLOW
RATE.
HIGH PRESSURE CUTOFF—AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS THE PUMP OFF WHEN USED
WITH A SOLENOID VALVE, BALL VALVE, FLOAT VALVE, OR WATERING WAND ETC...

• The BP-1530 Booster Pump is designed for use with all GrowoniX water lters 600 GPD and under.
• The pump is designed to boost low water pressure to optimal pressure.
• Do not exceed 79 psi output pressure.
ABOUT
CAUTIONS
MOUNTING
• The pump is equipped with an adjustable bypass valve which controls the maximum operating
pressure. In addition, never subject the pump to pressures above 80 PSI.
• Never operate the pump in a harsh environment or hazardous atmosphere,
since motor brush and switch may cause electrical arcing.
• Pumphead materials are designed for use with water only. Do not use with petroleum products.
• Always consider electrical shock hazard when working with and handling electrical equipment.
If uncertain, consult an Electrician. Electrical wiring should only be done by a qualied Electrician
per Local and State Electrical Codes.
• The pump should be mounted in a dry place and away from any source of heat. If an enclosure is
used, special provisions for cooling the motor may be necessary. Consult the Factory.
• Do not subject the pump to extreme high or low (freezing) temperatures while in operation.
(Operating ambient temperature range is 32ºF to 115ºF).
• The pump may be mounted in any position. If “ceiling mounted”, however, with the pumphead
upside down, air entrapment may reduce the operational performance by up to 15%.
READ ENTIRE MANUAL THOROUGHLY
BEFORE INSTALLING THIS HIGH PRESSURE-BOOSTING PUMP.
INSERT TUBE INTO FITTING
Push the tubing through the collet and dual o-rings until it bottoms
out against the tube stop.
The collet holds the tube in place and the dual o-rings provide a leak
resistant seal.
MAKE A CLEAN TUBE CUT
Cut the tube squarely and if using plastic tubing, ensure that the cut has
not made the tube out of round.
Also ensure that the tube has a smooth outside diameter without any
burrs or score marks prior to inserting it into the tting.
TEST AND INSPECT
Push and pull the tubing toward and away from the tting to ensure
that it has been installed properly.
Test and inspect the installation for any leaks.
TUBE REMOVAL
Relieve pressure from the tubing and tting. Push uniformly around
the collet ange against the tting body while pulling the tubing away
from the tting to release it.

BASIC INFORMATION

The motor is available in 110 and 50/60 hertz 1 phase 2A. Please ensure that the electrical
circuit supplying the system is compatible with the requirements of the BP-1530 pump. Each BP-1530
pump is equipped with an 5” electrical cord.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK, THE INCOMING POWER SUPPLY MUST INCLUDE
A PROTECTIVE EARTH GROUND.
Pump will prime only if all pressure is relieved from the outlet port.
It is recommended that an in-line sediment lter (150 micron or 100 mesh) be installed at the inlet
side to keep foreign debris out of the system.
Avoid any sharp bends which may crimp tubing and restrict ow. Use 90º elbow ttings if necessary.
Carbon lters should be ushed prior to connectivity to prevent carbon particles from entering the
pump chambers, and possibly causing clogging.
• The input is 3/8” OD” quick connect tubing.
• The output is 3/8” OD quick connect tubing.

NOTE
WARNING
READ ENTIRE MANUAL THOROUGHLY
BEFORE INSTALLING THIS HIGH PRESSURE-BOOSTING PUMP.
Any restrictions or blockage in the drain line of the RO system can cause back pressure, which will
increase the systems operating pressure. this can result in damage to the system’s membranes and
components and a potentially DANGEROUS OVERPRESSURIZATION CONDITION.
We recommend use of exible tubing with proper pressure rating.

SETUP INSTRUCTIONS

The BP-1530 Booster Pump is equipped with an adjustable internal bypass valve, which controls the
maximum operating pressure. The valve is located in the center of the triangular cap on the top of the
pump head, between the input and output ports. To adjust, insert the included 1/16” Allen Wrench into
the chrome adjustment screw. Turn clockwise to increase operating pressure. Turn counter-clockwise
to decrease operating pressure. It is recommended not to exceed 79 psi operating pressure.
Turn clockwise to INCREASE operating pressure.
Turn counter-clockwise to DECREASE operating pressure
