Weve configured the RainFlo RF125 series pumps with all of the best features and performance of any pumps in their class for the rainwater collection industry. The RF125-115V is a heavy-duty, high performance 115V/60Hz 1.25 horsepower 3-stage submersible pump with 1.25" threaded inlet to easily accept a floating extractor. The pump is internally cooled by the water flowing through the inlet so the pump can be installed either submersed in a tank or externally on the ground or other mounting platform.
RainFlo universal pumps are specially designed for the unique requirements of rainwater collection systems. Equipped with a large threaded bottom inlet for internal flow-based cooling and connection to a floating filter, these pumps can be installed vertically or horizontally and they can either be submersed inside a tank or mounted externally on the ground or other platform.

Mounting LocationThe pump may be mounted vertically or horizontally and may be fully or partially submersed or mounted externally on the ground or other sturdy platform. When mounted externally, the pump must be safely and securely mounted in a manner which prevents exposure to electrical connections and in a location which prevents damage and exposure to freezing temperatures. |
Environmental ConsiderationsIf the pump may be exposed to freezing temperatures, the pump must be fully drained and protected with a food-grade antifreeze. The pump start box offers water resistance but should be mounted in a location away from direct exposure to rain, humidity, snow, excessive heat and direct sunlight. |
Pump to Start Box WiringAll electrical connections should be made by a licensed professional. The pump ships pre-wired to the pump start box as shown below. Excess wire between the pump and pump start box can be removed so long as the wires are re-connected properly. |
Pump Start Box to Pump Controller WiringThe pump start box serves as housing for the start capacitor and on/off control for maintenance and is not intended for regular pump starting and stopping operation. For regular pump control and run-dry protection, an intelligent pump control such as the RainFlo Pump Control or a pressure switch assembly should be used. The pump controller is wired between the main electrical power source and the GND/N/L(115V) terminals inside the pump start box. Follow the wiring instructions for your particular pump control device. |
