A correct installation of this pump is assured by following the instructions from this manual. We decline all responsibility for damages caused by use different to that explained in this instruction manual.

IMPORTANT

This manual contains basic information on the safety measures to be adopted during installation and start- up. The fitter and the user must therefore read the instructions before installation and start-up.

GENERAL SAFETY REGULATIONS

The machines indicated in this Manual are especially designed for the pre-filtering and recirculation of water in swimming pools
Install them in line with the specific instructions for each installation
All modifications to the pump require prior authorisation from the manufacturer. Origi- nal spare parts and accessories authorised by the manufacturer ensure greater safety.
The pump manufacturer is exempt from all liability regarding any damage caused by unauthorised spare parts or accessories.
When working on each machine or on the units linked to them, disconnect the unit f rom the power supply and the startup devices, as the electrical parts of the pump are live during operation.
All assembly and maintenance work must be carried out by qualified and authorised personnel who have carefully read the installation and service instructions.
To guarantee safety when operating the machine, you must comply with that set out in the installation and service instructions.
In the event of defective operation or faults, contact your supplier or nearest representative.
If the power supply cable is damaged, the manufacturer, its after-sales service of qualified technicians, should replace it in order to avoid hazards.
The device should be connected to electricity outlet with earth connection, protected by a Residual Current circuit breaker that does not exceed 30 mA.
Make sure that water is unable to enter the motor or the live electrical parts.
Avoid contact at all times – even accidentally – with moving machine parts while the machine is running and/or before it comes to a complete standstill
Wait for the machine to come to a halt before handling it.
Before any electrical or mechanical maintenance operation, disconnect the unit f rom the power supply and block the start-up devices.
To reduce risk of injury, children should not use this product.
Do not bury the electric cable. Lay the cable so it cannot be damaged by machinery, like mowing machines, etc.
Do not start the pump before it is correctly connected to the swimming pool.
To reduce risk of electric shock, change the electric cable immediately when damaged.
To reduce risks of electric shock, do not use extension cables to connect the p mp to a power supply. Connect it to a correctly installed electricity outlet.
Do not use the pump without water!

INSTALLATION

Only authorised and qualified personnel should install the pump and its cabling, respecting the current legislation.
The pump should be installed horizontally, screwing it to the support, to avoid vibration and unwanted noise.
The pump should be installed far from any corrosive or flammable products.
The pump should have sufficient drainage to avoid risk of flooding and should be protected from excessive humidity.
Install independent water inlet and outlet valves.
Allow for sufficient access space for pump maintenance and make sure that the technical plate of the pump is visible.
During the installation of the pump, position it so there is 1 meter of free space around it.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

Place the motor on the floor before connecting it to the mains. Otherwise, the motor could cause a serious and even mortal electric shock. Do not place it on the floor over a gas pipe.
To avoid a dangerous or mortal electric shock, disconnect the power supply of the motor before working on the electrical connections.
If it short-circuits, this will indicate there is an electricity problem. If it short-circuits and cannot be restarted, ask a qualified electrician to verify and repair the electrical system.
The unit should be connected to an alternating current supply (see data on the pump’s plate) with an earth connection, protected by a residual current device (RCD) with a rated residual operating current that does not exceed 30 mA.
Unsuitable mains connections involve the risk of electrocution.
The power supply should exactly correspond to the voltage indicated on the plate of the motor. Incorrect voltage could provoke a fire and/or damage the motor, and would cancel the guarantee. In case of doubt, check with an electrician.
The electric cable is included and comes with a “Y” connection. If it is necessary to replace the electricity cable, the new cable should also be of the appropriate type. The guarantee will be cancelled in the case of any unauthorised modification of the components.
The electrical installation has to be according to current legislation.
If the electrical cable is damaged, the manufacturer, its agent, or any other qualified person should replace it to avoid any damage.
The pump is equipped with complete thermal protection. Follow the assembly diagram below for correct electrical installation.
The electrical installation should be done by someone qualified in working with electrical equipment. This device is not designed to be used by children, by physically disabled persons or those with reduced sensorial or psychological ability or by persons without experience or knowledge of the device, unless a persons responsible for safety is in charge of their care and provides them with previous instructions for handling the device. Do not permit children nor adults to sit or lean on the equipment. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the equipment.
Adjust the value of the thermal relay appropriately depending on the pump current.
Unsuitable mains connections involve the risk of electrocution

Assembly of pipes

The pipes should be assembled before and after the pump and should have diameters equal of above those of the pump inlet.
The suction and expulsion pipes should never stay connected to the pump.
Well seal all the connections and the cover of the pump to avoid possible water leaks into the motor, which could damage it.

Tests before starting the pump

Carry out the following operations before starting the pump:

Check that the power supply as well its frequency correspond to the information of pump specification plate.
Before starting the pump, fill it with water for self-priming of the pump.
Check that the mains voltage and frequency correspond with those indicated on the pump characteristics plate
The pump can continuously work. Starting the pump

Start the pump only when the suction and expulsion tubes are connected to the inlet and outlet of the pump. Check there are no obstacles in the pipes.

Maintenance and cleaning

Your new pump does not need any specific or programmed maintenance In the case that the pump is not used during some time, we recommend dismantling it and cleaning it to be kept in a dry and well-aired place.
If the electrical cable is damaged, the manufacturer, its agent, or any other qualified person to avoid any danger should replace it to avoid any dangers.
Regularly clean your pump, removing any dirt f rom the filer so the inlet pipe is not blocked or the pump damaged.
Pump components that, due to their normal use, suffer wear and/or tear must be regularly replaced to ensure good pump performance.
For regular control:
Check that the mechanical parts are tightly secured and check the condition of the screws supporting the machine.
Check that the power conductors and isolating parts are in their correct position, are secure and in a good state of repair. Check the temperature of the machine and the electric motor. In the event of a fault, stop the machine immediately and contact the nearest Technical Assistance Service.
Check for machine vibrations. In the event of a fault, stop the machine immediately and contact the nearest Technical Assistance.
