Guidelines for safe use
Attention:
This manual includes all the necessary information about the use and
installation of your heat pump. The installer must read carefully this manual
and attentively follow the instructions during the implementation and
maintenance. The installer is responsible for the installation of this heat
pump and should follow all the instructions that the manufacturer regulates in
the actual application. Improper installation against the manual might cause
severe safety accidents and cause your heat pump out of the guarantee provided
by your supplier. The manufacturer declines any responsibility for the damages
caused by the users, objects and the errors due to installation that disobeys
the manual’s guidance. Any use that is without conformity with the origin of
its manufacturing will be regarded as dangerous.
- Please always keep the heat pump in places that are well-ventilated and away from anything which could cause a fire.
- Don’t weld the pipe if there is refrigerant inside. Please keep the heat pump out of the confined space when making gas charge.
- Please always empty the water in your heat pump during winter time or when the ambient temperature drops below zero, or else the titanium exchanger will be damaged because of being frozen, in such case, your warranty will be lost.
- Please always cut off the power supply, when opening the cabinet of the heat pump for maintenance or repairmen.
- Please well keep the display controller in a dry area to protect it from being damaged by water or moisture.
- The action of gas charge must be conducted by the professional with R32 operating license.
WARNING:
These product warnings, instructions and safety rules provided with the
product represent some common risks of water recreation devices and do not
cover all instances of risk and danger. Please use common sense and good
judgment when enjoying any water activity.
Installation and connection
ATTENTION:
Please pay attention to the following rules when installing the heat pump:
- Any addition of chemicals must be carried out at the piping located downstream from the heat pump.
- Always hold the heat pump upright. If it has been held at a certain angle of more than 30°, wait at least 24 hours before starting the heat pump.
Location of your heat pump
The heat pump will work properly in any desired location as long as the
following three factors are present:
- Fresh air;
- Electricity;
- Swimming pool water
The unit may be installed in virtually any outdoor location as long as the
specified minimum distances to other objects are maintained (see drawing
below). Please consult your installer for installation with an indoor pool.
Installation at a windy location does not present any problem at all, unlike
the situation with a gas heater.
ATTENTION:
Never install the heat pump in a closed room with limited air volume in which
the air discharged from the heat pump will be reused, or close to shrubbery
that might block the air inlet. Such locations impair the continuous supply of
fresh air, may reduce the running efficiency and possibly prevent sufficient
heat output.
Initial operation
Note:
In order to heat your pool water, the water pump must run first to make the
water circulate through the heat pump. Your heat pump will not start up if the
water is not circulating.
Hose connection
Note:
The upper connection port at the heat pump’s right side is for the water
outlet, and the lower port is for the water inlet.
Electrical connection
Before connecting the heat pump, make sure that the supply voltage matches the operating heat pump’s voltage. There’s an RCD plug that is equipped with a power cable, which helps to offer full electrical protection.
When all connections have been completed and checked, carry out the following procedure:
-
Switch on the water pump. Check for leakage and verify that water is flowing incoming and outgoing to the swimming pool.
Attention
-
Connect power to the heat pump and press the ON/OFF button on the control panel. The heat pump will start up after the time delay expires (see below).
-
After a few minutes, check whether the air blowing out of the unit is cool (The mini heat pump can only make heat, when starts up, the running mode is heating as default).
-
When turning off the water pump, the unit should also turn off automatically.
Depending on the initial temperature of the pool water and ambient air temperature, it may take a long time to heat the water to your desired temperature. An appropriate swimming pool cover can dramatically reduce the heating time and preserve the heat from losing;
Time delay
The heat pump has a built-in 3-minute start-up delay to protect the circuitry
and avoid excessive restarting. The unit will restart automatically after this
time delay expires.
Condensation
The air suctioned into the heat pump will be cooled to be a very low
temperature by the evaporation process of your heat pump’s refrigerant, at its
heating mode. This may cause condensation on fins of the evaporator, which
might be as much as several litters per hour at high relative humidity.
Sometimes users may treat this phenomenon as water leakage, while this is
quite normal and no need to do anything.
Operation of the controller
Buttons of the controller
When the heat pump is running, the LED display shows the water outlet
temperature. LED 1 is on when the compressor is running. LED 2 is on if the
keys are locked to avoid children’s misoperation. When the heat pump is
switched off, it displays “OFF” on the controller LED display. When the heat
pump is switched off, it shows “OFF” on the LED display.
Turn on/off the heat pump
Press ON/OFF for 3 seconds to turn on the heat pump, on the LED display it
shows your setting water temperature for 5s, then show the outlet water’s
temperature. The fan motor will start to run first, after 15 seconds, the
compressor starts to run. Press ON/OFF for 3 seconds again to turn off the
heat pump, the compressor stops first, and after 30 seconds the fan motor
stops.
At the first time of power on, the heat pump will run to heat directly if the outgoing temp. (Tout)≤setting temp. (Test), without considering the parameter “Temp. difference for restart activation”.
When the outgoing temp. (Tout)> setting temp. (Tset) + 1 °C, the heat pump will stop to run; Till Tout≤Tset Temp. the difference for restart activation (2 °C), the heat pump will restart. Once the compressor starts to run, it has to continue for 2 minutes before turning off; But if any error appears, there’s no 2 minutes restriction. Once the compressor is turned off, there’s a 3 minutes delay before next start.
- Press ON/OFF and SETTINGS at the same time for 3 seconds to lock the keys; And on the contrary, to unlock the keys.
- Press ON/OFF and DOWN at the same time for 3 seconds to return to factory’s default settings
Water temperature setting
At running status, press DOWN or UP directly to adjust your desired water
temperature (range: 10—42 °C). Press ON/OFF shortly to save the setting then
exit.
NOTE:
The heat pump can run only if the water circle/filtration system is running.
Fan motor defrosting
At defrosting, the compressor stops and fan motor keeps running, based on the regular time duration (Factory’s default seting is 12 min.)
Defrosting logic:
When system detects ambient temp. ≤13C, (default value: 13C), and compressor
total running time for heating (counted from the second of compressor starts,
default value: 60 min.) reaches 60 min., it will enter regular defrosting
mode: compressor stops andfan motor keeps running 12 min. (default value: 12
min.).
Once finished, the compressor will restart to heat, counting for total heating time will be returned to zero. During fan motor defrosting:
- If the heat pump is switched off, it will stop running immediately;
- If any error occurs and activates system protection, it will quit defrosting and stop to run;
- The system will not detect low-pressure protection.
Parameter query
Press SETTINGS it will enter the parameter query, press UP or DOWN to choose the code d0 to d8, and press SETTINGS again, it will show the current value. And press SETTINGS again to return to the parameter query interface. When finished, shortly press ON/OFF to save & exit.
Notice:
- For the parameter c0 to c8, it is not authorized to be set at the end-users side, if actually needed, please contact your supplier;
- The required sensor’s spec.: 50K for discharge temp. sensor and 5K for others, please note if users need to replace a new one, the same spec must be selected, otherwise, it will not be matched with the PCB.
System protection
Compressor discharge over high protection
When the compressor runs, the system will check the discharge temp., if
detects it≥ 105 C within 5S continuously (parameter c3 as above form
displays), the system will judge it as a discharge error, stop the compressor
and fan motor, show “E03” error code. When discharge temp. < parameter c3 – 10
°C, it will start the fan motor and compressor (if remains stopped for more
than 3 minutes).
If this error appears 3 times within 30 minutes, the system will lock on it, the 2 indication LED lights will flash together, and show error code “E03”, it can be only recovered by turning off the power supply.
Low-pressure protection
When the compressor runs for 5 minutes, if the system detects a low-pressure
switch off within 10S continuously, it will enter this protection and show an
“EL” error code. When it detects a low-pressure switch connected, then quite
this protection. If this error appears 3 times within 30 minutes, the system
will lock on it, the indication LED light “Running” will flash, and show the
error code “EL”, it can be only recovered by turning off the power supply.
Outgoing water temp. sensor failure
If the system detects this temp. sensor in short circuit or disconnected, it
will judge this failure and show the “E01” error code, then stop the heat pump
for protection.
Ambient temp. sensor failure
If the system detects this temp. sensor in short circuit or disconnected, it
will judge this failure and show “E02” error code, then stop the heat pump for
protection.
Discharge temp. sensor failure
If the system detects this temp. sensor in short circuit or disconnected, it
will judge this failure and show “E04” error code, then stop the heat pump for
protection.
Ambient temp. over low or over high protection
Ambient temp. over low or over high protection
- When the ambient temp. < 8 Centi-degree (C) or < 60 C, the heat pump will stop to enter protection and display the E00 error code.
- When ambient temp. ≥ 11C or ≤ 57C (3C difference), the heat pump will restart.
Auto restart
This parameter can be pre-set, and the system will save it always;
- If the heat pump power supply is cut off at an accidence, when powered on again, the heat pump will automatically run at the settings before power off.
- Other malfunctions and solutions (no display on LED wire controller)
Maintenance
- The users should check the water supply system regularly to avoid the air to enter the system and causing low water flow because it would reduce the performance and reliability of your heat pump unit.
- Clean your pools and filtration system regularly to avoid the damage caused to your heat unit as a result of the dirty of a clogged filter.
- The users should drain away the water inside the titanium heat exchanger of their heat pump if it remains not running for a long period (especially during the winter season).
- When you use again the heat pump after a long period, please check if the water pipeline at the proper condition and make the water pump run firstly before startup the unit.
- When your heat pump is running, there will be always some little water discharge under the unit, it is normal.
