SCOPREGA GE2000 ARS Electric Inflator Instruction Manual

SCOPREGA GE2000 ARS Electric Inflator

Product Information

The GE2000 ARS is an electric inflator that comes in two variants – GE 2000 ARS 230V and GE 2000 ARS 120V. It is equipped with a pressure display and selector, a power cable, and a general switch. The product is designed to inflate and deflate inflatable structures.

The product is delivered with a pre-set pressure setting, which can be modified by referring to the instructions in chapter 8 of the manual. The product has a maximum power consumption of 2 kW, a maximum pressure of 10 PSI, and a maximum flow rate of 1500 L/min.
The product has a weight of 19 kg and can operate within a temperature range of -10°C to +40°C.

Product Usage Instructions

1. Connect the inflation hose to the inflation nozzle of the GE2000 ARS and the main valve of the inflatable structure.

2. Connect the adapter (circled in figure 2) to another valve of the inflatable structure. Use a PU (or PA) tube with a diameter of 6 mm and a length of no more than 5 m.

3. Connect the power cable to the respective socket.

4. Press the general switch of the inflator (point 5 in figure 1).
   The green light indicates that the inflator is ready to use.

5. Press the ON/OFF switch to start the inflation process. If the pre-set pressure needs to be modified, refer to chapter 8 of the manual

6. Press the AUTO CYCLE button. The two LEDs will light up after 2 seconds, and the red LED will go out. The inflator will inflate the structure to the desired pressure setting.

Make sure that the pressure control hose is always connected to the inflator and the inflatable structure. To deflate the structure, connect the deflation nozzle (point 2 in figure 1) to the valve of the inflatable structure and switch on the inflator.

Read these instructions before using the inflator. Failure to follow all the instructions listed below may result in damage to the product and/or cause serious injury to persons.

PRELIMINARY WARNINGS

1. Comply with all instructions in this document.

2. Keep these instructions.

3. Always protect the power cable.

4. Do not open the inflator. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel authorised by Scoprega.
   Servicing is required when the device is damaged or not working in any way.

5. Do not tamper with the product. Opening the inflator will void its warranty.

6. Provide suitable ventilation.

7. Avoid placing objects near the product during operation.

8. Keep this product out of the reach of children.

9. The operating inflator produces vibrations: therefore, we recommend you to use it on the floor, so as to avoid accidental falls.

DO NOT POWER THE INFLATOR WITH A VOLTAGE HIGHER THAN THE RATED ONE

GENERAL SAFETY RULES

1. ALWAYS TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE WORKING ENVIRONMENT.
   Do not expose the inflator to rain. Do not use in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.

2. AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING.
   Do not start the inflator with the inlet in contact with dust or water.

3. PAY ATTENTION.
   Pay attention to what you are doing. Use common sense.

4. CHECK THAT THERE ARE NO DAMAGED PARTS.
   Before using the inflator, carefully check its outer sides and components.

5. DO NOT OPERATE portable inflators near flammable liquids or in gaseous or explosive atmospheres. The inflator motors produce sparks that can release fumes.

6. DO NOT INHALE!
   The compressed air coming from the inflator is not clean. Never inhale air from your inflator.

7. WARNING! RISK OF EXPLOSION.
   Inflate the inflatable unit only complying with the manufacturer’s recommendations. Exceeding the pressure rating could cause the inflator to explode, resulting in personal injury.

8. NEVER LEAVE THE DEVICE UNATTENDED.
   Overinflation could result in serious injury and property damage.

9. WARNING! RISK OF UNSAFE OPERATION.
   Do not modify or attempt to repair the unit. Do not drill into or make any modifications to the inflator or its accessories. Any modification to the product will void its warranty.

10. Never carry the inflator by the flexible hose or power cable.

INTRODUCTION

The GE 2000 ARS is a device capable of maintaining the nominal pressure in inflatable items within preset values (min. 50 mbar, max. 400 mbar), regardless of ambient temperature. The unit constantly monitors pressure variations within the item and regulates refilling and deflation in case of overpressure.

1. The GE 2000 ARS is a unit that is able to INFLATE and MAINTAIN an inflatable item at a preset pressure. THIS MEANS THAT THE INFLATABLE ITEM MUST ALWAYS BE CONNECTED TO THE INFLATOR.

2. THE INFLATOR IS DELIVERED WITH A FACTORY PRE-SET PRESSURE. TO CHANGE THIS SETTING PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY (CHAPTER 8). IN CASE OF DOUBT, PLEASE CONTACT THE SCOPREGA SERVICE DEPARTMENT.
   WARNING
   THE PRESSURE CONTROL HOSE AND THE 6 MM VALVE ADAPTOR ARE NOT INCLUDED!

3. THE INFLATOR IS EQUIPPED WITH A THERMAL OVERLOAD CUTOUT THAT INTERRUPTS THE INFLATING OPERATIONS IN CASE OF MOTOR OVERHEATING. NORMAL OPERATION WILL CONTINUE AUTOMATICALLY AFTER A 20/40-MINUTE PAUSE.

4. THE INFLATOR IS SUPPLIED WITHOUT HOSES OR FITTINGS. HOSES AND FITTINGS SUITABLE FOR THIS INFLATOR FOR CONNECTING TO THE MOST COMMON INFLATION VALVES CAN BE PURCHASED FROM AUTHORISED SCOPREGA CENTRES.

HOW TO USE

1. Connect the inflation hose to the inflation port of the GE 2000 ARS and to the main valve of the inflatable item.

2. Connect the fitting (circled in figure 2) to another valve on the inflatable item. Use a PU (or PA) hose with a 6 mm diameter and a maximum length of 5 m.
   WARNING
   CHECK THAT THE PRESSURE CONTROL HOSE IS ALWAYS CONNECTED TO THE INFLATOR AND TO THE INFLATABLE ITEM

3. Connect the power cable to the appropriate socket.

4. Press the main switch of the inflator (Point 5 Fig.1). When the green light comes on, the inflator is ready to work.

5. Press the ON/OFF switch.

6. The display will show the maximum preset pressure that the inflatable item must reach.
   If it needs to be changed, refer to chapter 8 “HOW TO CHANGE THE PRESSURE SETTINGS”.

7. Press the AUTO CYCLE button. The 2 LEDs light up after 2 seconds and the red LED turns off; the green LED indicates that the GE 2000 ARS will automatically start to inflate to the set pressure.

HOW TO CHANGE THE PRESSURE SETTINGS

1. CONNECT THE POWER CABLE TO THE SOCKET.
2. TURN ON THE MAIN GREEN SWITCH
3. FOLLOW THE STEPS BELOW TO ADJUST THE PRESSURE:

• A. PRESS MODE to select the unit of measurement (mbar, psi, kPa, bar): press the MODE button multiple times, until you find the desired unit.

• B. Changing the inflation pressure using the SET+/SET- buttons: when a button is pressed for 2 seconds, the display starts blinking and the pressure can be adjusted by pressing the SET+/SET- buttons.
  After 2 seconds, the display stops blinking and the pressure is memorised. The pressure can be set between 100 and 350 mbar.

• C. Changing the filling pressure: when the MIN button is pressed for 3 seconds, the display starts blinking. The value may be changed by using SET+ and SET-. After 2 seconds, the display stops blinking and the value is memorised. The filling pressure may be adjusted from 30 to 70 mbar with respect to the operating pressure. Example: if you wish to reach an inflation pressure of 250 mbar and the refilling value is set to 50 mbar, when the pressure of the inflatable item reaches 200 mbar, the GE 2000 ARS switches back on and brings the pressure of the inflatable item to 250 mbar.

• D. Changing the deflation pressure: when the MAX button is pressed for 3 seconds, the display starts blinking. The value may be changed by using SET+ and SET-. After 2 seconds, the display stops blinking and the value is memorised. The deflation pressure may be adjusted from 30 to 70 mbar with respect to the operating pressure.
  Example: if you wish to reach an inflation pressure of 250 mbar and the deflation value is set to 50 mbar, when the item reaches 300 mbar, the ARS opens the deflation valve until it reaches 250 mbar.

• E. After the changes press AUTO CYCLE: The 2 LEDs light up after 2 seconds and the red LED turns off; the green LED indicates that the GE 2000 ARS will automatically start to inflate/deflate and refill to the pressure. With the automatic cycle activated (LEDs on), the unit automatically checks the pressure of the inflatable item.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Connect it correctly
The main GREEN switch is off| Press the switch
The power cable is damaged| Ask the SCOPREGA service to replace or repair the cable
The inflator is stopped| The power cable is not connected to the socket| Connect it correctly
The main switch is off| Press the switch
Over-temperature| Wait until the ARS motors cool down. The inflator will restart automatically.
The inflator does not stop| The pressure sensor hose (blue) is not properly connected to the pump or valve of the inflatable item| Connect the hose correctly
