MAG3 Heat Circulation Pump

Warning
This heat pump contains a flammable refrigerant R32.
Any intervention on the refrigerant circuit is prohibited without a valid authorization.
Before working on the refrigerant circuit, the following precautions are necessary for safe work.

  1. Work procedure
    The work must be carried out according to a controlled procedure, in order to minimize the  riskof presence of flammable gases or vapors during the execution of the works.

  2. General work area
    All persons in the area must be informed of the nature of the work in progress. Avoid working in a confined area. The area around the work area should be divided, secured and special attention should be paid to nearby sources of flame or heat.

  3. Verification of the presence of refrigerant
    The area should be checked with a suitable refrigerant detector before and during work to ensure that there is no potentially flammable gas. Make sure that the leak detection equipment used is suitable for flammable refrigerants, ie it does not produce  sparks, is properly sealed or has internal safety.

  4. Presence of fire extinguisher
    If hot work is to be performed on the refrigeration equipment or any associated part, appropriate fire extinguishing equipment must be available. Install a dry powder or CO2 fire extinguisher near the work area.

  5. No source of flame, heat or spark
    It is totally forbidden to use a source of heat, flame or spark in the direct vicinity of one or more parts or pipes containing or having contained a flammable refrigerant. All sources of ignition, including smoking, must be sufficiently far from the place of  nstallation, repair, removal and disposal, during which time a flammable refrigerant may be released into the surrounding area. Before starting work, the environment of the equipment should be checked to ensure that there is no risk of flammability. «No smoking» signs must be posted.

  6. Ventilated area
    Make sure the area is in the open air or is properly ventilated before working on the system or performing hot work. Some ventilation must be maintained during the duration of the work.

  7. Controls of refrigeration equipment
    When electrical components are replaced, they must be suitable for the intended purpose and the appropriate specifications. Only the parts of the manufacturer can be used. If in doubt, consult the technical service of the manufacturer.

  8. The following controls should be applied to installations using flammable refrigerants:
    – The size of the load is in accordance with the size of the room in which the rooms containing the refrigerant are installed;
    – Ventilation and air vents work properly and are not obstructed;
    – If an indirect refrigeration circuit is used, the secondary circuit must also be checked.
    – The marking on the equipment remains visible and legible. Illegible marks and signs must be corrected;
    – Refrigeration pipes or components are installed in a position where they are unlikely to be exposed to a substance that could corrode components containing refrigerant

  9. Verification of electrical appliances
    Repair and maintenance of electrical components must include initial safety checks and component inspection procedures. If there is a defect that could compromise safety, no power supply should be connected to the circuit until the problem is resolved.
    Initial security checks must include:
    • That the capacitors are discharged: this must be done in a safe way to avoid the possibility of sparks;
    • No electrical components or wiring are exposed during loading, recovery or purging of the refrigerant gas system;
    • There is continuity of grounding.

Operation

5.1 Operation
Conditions of use
For the heat pump to operate normally, the ambient air temperature must be between -5°C and 43°C.
Recommendations prior to start-up
Before activating the heat pump, please:
Check that the unit is stable.
Control the proper functioning of your electrical installation.
Check that the hydraulic connections are tight and that there is no leakage of water.
Remove any unnecessary object or tool from around the unit.
Operation

  1. Connect the unit power plug.
  2.  Activate the circulating pump.
  3. Activate the unit’s power supply protection (differential switch and circuit-breaker).
  4. Activate the heat pump.
  5. Select the required temperature.
  6. The heat pump’s compressor will start up after a few moments.

All you have to do now is wait until the required temperature is reached.
WARNING: Under normal conditions, a suitable heat pump can heat the water in a swimming pool by 1°C to 2°C per day. It is therefore quite normal to not feel any temperature difference in the system when the heat pump is working.
A heated pool must be covered to avoid any loss of heat.
Good to know restarting after power failure
After power failure or abnormal shutdown, power on again, the system is in standby state. Reset the differential plug and turn on the heat pump.

Maintenance and servicing

6.1 Maintenance, servicing and winter storage
WARN ING: Before undertaking maintenance work on the unit, ensure that you have disconnected the electrical power supply.

Cleaning
The heat pump’s casing must be cleaned with a damp cloth. The use of detergents or other household products could damage the surface of the casing and affect its properties.
The evaporator at the rear of the heat pump must be carefully cleaned with a vacuum cleaner and soft brush attachment.
Annual maintenance
The following operations must be undertaken by a qualified person at least once a year.
Carry out safety checks.
Check the integrity of the electrical wiring.
Check the earthing connections.
Monitor the state of the pressure gauge and the presence of refrigerant.
Winter storage
Your heat pump is designed to operate in rainy weather conditions and withstand frost using a specially created anti-frost technology. However it is not recommended to leave it outside for long periods of time (eg over winter). After draining down the pool for the winter, store the heat pump in a dry place.

Repairs

WARNING: Under normal conditions, a suitable heat pump can heat the water in a swimming pool by 1°C to 2°C per day. It is therefore quite normal to not feel any temperature difference in the system when the heat pump is working. A heated pool must be covered to avoid any loss of heat.
7.1 Breakdowns and faults
In the event of a problem, the heat pump’s screen displays an error code instead of temperature indications. Please consult the table below to find the possible causes of a fault and the actions to be taken.

Code Fault Name
P1 Water inlet sensor error
P3 Coil temp. sensor error
P5 Ambient temp.sensor error
P7 Low temp. protection
E7 Water flow protection
E6 Low pressure error
Defrosting indicator (Green light) Defrosting

Recycling

8.1 Recycling the heat pump
Your heat pump has reached the end of its life and you wish to dispose of it or to replace it. Do not throw it in the rubbish bin.
A heat pump must be disposed of separately with a view to its reuse, recycling or upgrading. It contains substances that are potentially hazardous to the environment but which will be eliminated or neutralized by recycling.
YOU HAVE THREE SOLUTIONS:

  1. Disposing of it at your local recycling centre.
  2. Giving it to a social service organisation for it to be repaired and put back into circulation.
  3. Returning it to the heat pump distributor against a new purchase.
