optimum when the difference is around 2 degree.
3.7 Electrical connection
Note: Although the heat pump is electrically isolated from the rest of the swimming pool system, this only
prevents the flow of electrical current to or from the water in the pool. Earthing is still required for protection
against short-circuits inside the unit. Always provide a good earth connection.
Before connecting the unit, verify that the supply voltage matches the operating voltage of the heat pump.
It is recommended to connect the heat pump to a circuit with its own fuse or circuit breaker (slow type; curve D)
and to use adequate wiring.
Connect the electrical wires to the terminal block marked ' POWER SUPPLY '.
A second terminal block marked 'WATER PUMP ' is located next to the first one. The filter pump (max. 5 A / 240 V)
can be connected to the second terminal block here. This allows the filter pump operation to be controlled by the
heat pump.
Note: In the case of three-phase models, swapping two phases may cause the electric motors to run in the reverse
direction, which can lead to damage. For this reason, the unit has a built-in protective device that breaks the circuit
if the connection is not correct. If the red LED above this safety device lights up, you must swap the connections of
two of the phase wires.
3.8 Initial operation
Note: In order to heat the water in the pool (or hot tub), the filter pump must be running to cause the water to
circulate through the heat pump. The heat pump will not start up if the water is not circulating.
After all connections have been made and checked, carry out the following procedure:
1. Switch on the filter pump. Check for leaks and verify that water is flowing from and to the swimming pool.
2. Connect power to the heat pump and press the On/Off button
on the electronic control panel. The unit will
start up after the time delay expires .
3. After a few minutes, check whether the air blowing out of the unit is cooler.
4. When turn off the filter pump , the unit should also turn off automatically , if not, then adjust the flow switch.
Depending on the initial temperature of the water in the swimming pool and the air temperature, it may take
several days to heat the water to the desired temperature. A good swimming pool cover can dramatically reduce
the required length of time.
Water Flow Switch:
It is equipped with a flow switch for protecting the HP unit running with adequate water flow rate .It will turn on wh
en the pool pump runs and shut it off when the pump shuts off. If the pool water level higher than 1 m above or b
elow the heat
pump's automatic adjustment knob, your dealer may need to adjust its initial startup.
Time delay - The heat pump has a built-in 3-minute start-up delay to protect the circuitry and avoid excessive
contact wear. The unit will restart automatically after this time delay expires. Even a brief power interruption will
trigger this time delay and prevent the unit from restarting immediately. Additional power interruptions during this
delay period do not affect the 3-minute duration of the delay.
3.9 Condensation
The air drawn into the heat pump is strongly cooled by the operation of the heat pump for heating the pool water,
which may cause condensation on the fins of the evaporator. The amount of condensation may be as much as
several litres per hour at high relative humidity. This is sometimes mistakenly regarded as a water leak.
