Electrical product safety recall

Identification

Onga VF150 Submersible Pump

These units were sold in Australia and New Zealand via the Onga Dealer Network between January and August 2009.
Affected Serial numbers are 12-08 C00001 (built Dec 2008) to 06-09 C99999 (built June 2009). The serial number is located on the side of the pump body on the rating label.

Safety issue: Electric Shock

A potential fault exists in the stainless steel motor housing/casing material that may split allowing water to enter the motor windings. This has the potential to cause an electric shock to the operator.

Action required

Under no circumstances should this product be used, cease operation of the pump and isolate it from electrical power. Please return the pump to the place of purchase for a replacement. Call the recall hotline 1800 881 173 between 8:30am and 5:00pm Monday to Friday to locate your nearest Onga Dealer or speak to a Pentair Water representative.
