Above data is subject to modification without notice.
Note: Above data is adapted to power cord < 10m. If the power cord is 10m ~ 40m, the wire diameter must be increased. The signal cable can be extended to 50m maximum. Please see the appendix for further wiring information including pump control and auxiliary input

Installation options:

Flow switch-activated heating
The heat pump is activated by the flow of water initiated from the filtration/circulation pump, if the heater gets to temperature within the timers the unit will first start to use the inverter technology to slow the machine down to maintain the temperature and eventually to a stop.madimack-
Eco-Full-Inverter-Heat-Pump-FIG-14

  1. The chlorinator controller initiates the filtration pump.

  2. Heat pump’s flow switch senses the water flowing through the heat pump.

  3. Heat pump starts and will run until temperature is reached or filtration pump switches off

  4. No additional internal wiring to the heat pump is required in this set up

  5. No additional settings needed to be changed

  6. If the circulation pump is not running and no flow is detected unit will display E3 – this is normal and an indication
    the unit is sitting idle waiting for the filtration pump to start again.

  7. If the pool temperature is not reached within the filtration times you may need to extend the timers to match the heating requirement.

Heat pump activation without using the chlorinator controller and using the one pump used for filtration (additional controller required) An on-board pump output relay can activate the main filtration pump by using it in combination with a “single pump controller” without using the chlorinator timers needing to be activated which will stop over chlorination but still use a single supply pipework for the pool. This set-up is best when only single pipework is available from pool and doesn’t have individual heating pipework. Efficient with only one pump working.madimack-Eco-Full-Inverter-Heat-Pump-
FIG-15

  1. Termination points are labelled P1-P2 from the on-board relay and is activated by the timers and pool temperature, and will continue to run the pump until the heated water reaches the set temperature or the timer switches off.
  2. Once temperature is reached or the timer is finished the heat pump will switch off the relay output stopping the circulation pump.
  3. If the pool reaches temperature but the timer is still active the heat pump will switch off relay to stop the circulation pump. Whilst the timer is still active every hour it will run the circulation pump for 2 minutes to test the water temperature. If the temperature is 1 degree below set point the heat pump will continue to run the circulation pump and start the heating process again.
  4. P1 – P2 relay up to 10A output for circulation pump (check total load on circuit when combined) (P1 and P2 is an output relay switch NOT active neutral terminals, please see wiring diagram for further information.)
  5. Heat Pump timers are set through the mobile application and required a Wi-Fi connection. If no Wi-Fi is present then additional external timer may be required (sold separately)
  6. On the single pump controller, connect the black power cable to a 240V GPO, connect the piggyback cord into the chlorinator, and plug the pump into the bottom of the controller.
  7. Connect the Fig 8 wire from the single pump controller to the P1-P2 terminals. (See single pump controller manual for more information
  8. Adjust parameter “P6” to 100 as per section E

Individual circulation pump installation
An onboard output initiates the circulation pump to start and stop from the heat pump itself based on temperature and timers. For use when there are dedicated heating pipes and to separate from the filtration timers.madimack-

  2. Once temperature is reached or the timer is finished the heat pump will switch off the relay output stopping the circulation pump.
  3. If the pool reaches temperature but the timer is still active the heat pump will switch off relay to stop the circulation pump. Whilst the timer is still active every hour it will run the circulation pump for 2 minutes to test the water temperature. If the temperature is 1 degree below set point the heat pump will continue to run the circulation pump and start the heating process again
  4. P1 – P2 relay up to 10A output for circulation pump (check total load on circuit when combined) (P1 and P2 is an output relay switch not active neutral terminals, please see wiring diagram for further information.
  5. Heat Pump timers are set through the mobile application and required a Wi-Fi connection. If no Wi-Fi is present then an additional external timer may be required (sold separately)
  6. It is recommended to install a power point for the pump to plug into for any future service work to the pump which may be required.
  7. The circulation pump should be sized accordingly to suit the site conditions and flow required.
  8. Adjust parameter “P6” to 100 as per section E.

Solar retro
In some situations, when a heat pump is replacing a solar heating system, the pipework is available to be used next to the house but there is no way of adding a new electrical circuit to the pool equipment. With the use of an additional temperature sensor, you can use the in-built flow switch to activate the heating. Allowing you to use the existing solar pump and to install the heater closer to the switchboard.madimack-Eco-Full-Inverter-
Heat-Pump-FIG-17

  1. In may be impractical to get a new power cable from the house switchboard to the pool equipment area due to finished flooring etc., in this case It may be possible to use the existing pipework which connects to the house and install a power cable from there.

  2. An external thermostat controller can initiate the existing circulation pump, thus running the heat pump through the flow switch for full temperature control.
    Please speak to your installer for more information.

  3. No additional wiring to the heat pump is needed internally

  4. Timers are set on the external thermostatic controller

  5. Set heat pump a couple of degrees above the set point temperature of the external temperature controller.

Automation systems and additional controls
The heat pump comes with easy-to-connect terminals in the electrical compartment labeled as 5 and 6. The unit comes prewired with a bridge cable connected. To add an external control to activate the heat pump, remove the bridge and add in a volt free terminal connection. Please check with the automation system provider that the connection is volt free and the best way to install with their set-up. If the external controller is not initiating the heat pump to operate the display with show the word “OFF”

    • Press to start silence mode, and light will turn on.
  • d. Default mode is set to full power boost mode

Defrosting

  • Automatic active defrosting: When the machine is operating in low temperatures it is very common for ice to build up on the external coil. The heat pump has a built in defrost protection program which will activate when it senses ice starting to form.

When machine is defrosting, starts flashing; after defrosting is on continuously

  • Forced defrosting: : If the heat pump requires manual defrosting for testing or a sensor is faulty please follow these instructions, the machine must be in heating mode and the compressor is working continuously for more than ten minutes, Whilst the unit is running, press and on the controller simultaneously and hold for 5 seconds. When the symbol is flashing, defrost has started, and will continue until the external coil temperature reaches a certain temperature adequate for continued operation. If the symbol stops flashing forced defrost has stopped.

Note 1: the interval between forced defrosting should be more than 30 minutes apart.

Note 2: Defrost mode usually last for around 15 minutes, during this period, the heat pump fan will stop running, and relatively louder noise will be heard. The heat pump will reverse the refrigeration cycle in an attempt to melt any frost that have formed on the internal components, therefore its totally normal to witness higher condensation rate around the unit (Frost melting) and white smoke coming out of the unit (Water Vapor).

WiFi Operation
For video tutorials and further help please visit www.Madimack.com.au FAQ for all you need to do and full walkthrough.

Flow Rates
OPTIMUM FLOW RATE DIFFERENTIAL FROM INLET TO OUTLET IS BETWEEN 2-3 DEGREES
Each Pool Heat Pump has a minimum flow rate requirement please check the specification table to ensure the circulation pump in use is adequately sized.

Calibrating the flow rate
By using the running status function on the touch controller, it is easy to calibrate the check valves installed# for optimum flow rates through the heat pump. Madimack Heat Pumps have a built-in flow switch which will deactivate the heating function if not enough water flow is detected. The Heat Pump has a large range operation up to a seven-degree differential. If the temperature differential is above 7 degrees, the built-in flow switch or E6 Error will be displayed indicating not enough flow detected.

Recommended procedure

  1. Open all isolating valves
  2. Fully close the by-pass and switch the unit on to max temp.
  3. Wait 3-4 minutes until heat pump is at 100% Capacity
  4. Check inlet and outlet temperature through the on-screen controller (Check “Running status check” in the previous section to obtain C0 and C1 values)
  5. Open the by-pass valve to increase the temperature differential (The difference between C0 and C1 values)
  6. Close the by-pass valve to decrease temperature differential (The difference between C0 and C1 values)
  7. Once optimum temperature difference (2-3 C) is achieved lock the position of the by-pass if possible.

Checklist:

  • Unit has been installed level
  • Minimum ventilation requirements are correct to standards show in appendix K
  • Condensation drain pipe has been connected and drains away from unit
  • Rubber feet have been placed underneath unit
