IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To make the best use of this energy-saving device and to avoid the potential
risk of fire, electrical shock, SERIOUSinjuriesto people, or damaged property,
please read this user guide carefully before installation and keep it for
future reference.
This device can ONLY be used with pool pumps with a permanent split capacitor
motor. Below shows a typical single-speed swimming pool pump motor.
Running Capacitor
1.1 It is NOT compatible with:
a. Single phase motors with centrifugal switch
b. Pool pump motors with start relays or switch
c. Series or DC motors
d. Pool pump motors with faults in their rotors or capacitors
e. Shaded-pole asynchronous motors
1.2 An RCD with a rated residual current not exceeding 30mA must be used
with this product.
If you are not sure of the compatibility of your pool pump with this
device, please contact your supplier or manufacturer before proceeding with
the installation.

BEFORE INSTALLATION
Upon receipt of the device, check for any damages on the packaging or product.
DO NOT proceed with the installation if any damage is found, contact your
supplier. Do not use extension leads with the device. Thiscanposea danger
particularly in the vicinity of a swimming pool.
Make sure the place you choose for installation meets the following
conditions:
– Ambient temperature from -10~42°C
– 45 to 90 percent relative humidity, non-condensing
– Below 1000m above sea level
– No direct sunlight
– Good ventilation
For efficient cooling, please make sure it is installed with a minimum
clearance surrounding it (Fig2), a blocked ventilation or an enclosed space
with limited airflow may cause overheating or potentially cease working of the
unit.
CONNECTING TO POOL PUMP
Please follow these steps and the wiring diagram for the correct connection.
The warranty may be compromised if the device is not installed in accordance
with instructions escribed in this manual
Only 1 pump can be connected to the inverter. Please do not connect any other
appliance to the output.
Mark the hole locations on the wall, install the expansion plugs supplied, fit
in the screws and hang the device on screws.
4.1 Turn off all electrical supplies to the pool pump, and unplug it from the
main switch or at the chlorinator which provides electrical power to the pump.
4.2 Plug the pool pump into the device’s power outlet (marked PUMP CONNECTION
ONLY).
4.3 Plug the device into the main switch/chlorinator/timer connection where
the pump was originally plugged into.
4.4 Switch all power back on.
4.5 Ensure chlorinator/timer is active.
4.6 Now the device is ready to run.
The
above figure is for reference only, plugs or sockets may vary for a different
markets.
If you do not require a power plug for installation, wire the device as shown
in Fig.4, please.
Do not touch the heat sink while the device is in operation or until at least
30 mins after it has been switched off. Keep it out of reach of children.
Because of the high voltage conversion components contained in the device, do not try todisassemble or replace any components in case of malfunction or breakdown. Before serving on the unit, wait till the power light is turned off or at least 3 minutes after power plug has been plugged off from the input supply.
SETTING & OPERATION
5.1 Control panel
5.2 Mode selection
The frequency inverter has 3 modes(speed ranges). You can either run your
pump at a constant speed choosing from “M” or set up 4 timers for daily
operation, each with an individual speed.
Mode | Speed range | Default speed |
---|---|---|
Night (Low) | 1200~1650 rpm | 1400 rpm |
Day (Medium) | 1700~2400 rpm | 2000 rpm |
Backwash (High) | 2450~2900 rpm | 2900 rpm |
① When the plugin, lights on, the device is still in OFF mode. Press to start.
② Up on start, the pump will run at a maximum speed (2900
rpm) for a one-minute self-priming.
③ Press to choose a running speed, and use or adjust by 50RPM to a specific
running speed if needed.|
---|---
Upon completion of self-priming, the pump will automatically switch to the
speed pre-set,
indicates the pump is running and showing current RPM and power consumption.
5.3 Timer setting
To run the pump at a different time or speed to take advantage of electricity
tariffs during the day, you can set up to 4 timers.
Step1: Press to enter timer setting
Step2: Use or set the current time. Press To moves the cursor to the next
setting. Press to Choose a speed range for timer 1, use or to decide on a
specific speed if needed.
Step3: Repeat the above steps to set the other 3 timers
Step4: Hold for 3 seconds or wait 10 seconds to save the setting
automatically. A flashing indicates the device is waiting for the start
time.
Step5: press or check 4 timers, and make sure there is no invalid setting.
Overlap setting of time will be considered invalid, the device will
only run based on the previous valid settings.
During timer setting, if you want to abandon it, hold for 3 seconds.
Note:
* If inactivate in 1 minute, the screen will lock automatically. Hold
*** for 3 seconds to unlock the device.
Thedevicehaspower-off memory, the operation will resume upon power
restoration.
***** Under OFFmode, hold for 3 seconds to retrieve the factory setting.

3 | E101 | Heat sink overheat | Contact your supplier |
4 | E102 | Heat sink sensor error | Contact your supplier |
5 | E103 | Master driver board error | Contact your supplier |
6 | E201 | Circuit board error | Contact your supplier |
7 | E202 | Master board EEPROM reading failure | Contact your supplier |
8 | E203 | RTC time reading error | Contact your supplier |
9 | E204 | Keyboard EEPROM reading failure | Contact your supplier |
10 | E205 | Communication error | Contact your supplier |
11 | AL01 | Auto speed reduction against high temperature | Contact your supplier |
When an error code appears, the device will stop working, to resume operation, unplug the device and plug it in again. AL01 is not an error indication when it appears, the product will switch automatically to a lower speed for self- protection against high interior temperature, when the temperature drops back to 65°C, the product will resume preset speed.
