Components such as the filtration system. pumps and heater must be positioned so as to prevent their being used as means of access to the pool by young children.

RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK

This appliance should be installed by qualified electrical personnel in accordance with National Electrical Code and all applicable local codes and ordinances. Hazardous voltage can shock, burn, and cause death or serious property damage. DO NOT use an extension cord to connect unit to electric supply to reduce the risk of electric shock.

1. The pump should be permanently connected to an individual circuit breaker.
2. Pump must be connected to a residual current device ( RCD) having a rated residual operating curren Not exceeding 30 mA or receptacle with ground fault circuit interrupt (GCFI).
3. Electrical grounding must be connected before connecting to electrical power. Failure to ground all electrical equipment can cause serious or fatal electrical shock hazard.
4. Bonding: Use at least #8 AWG (#6 AWG for Canada) a solid copper conductor, run a continuous wire from external bonding lug (if available) to the pressure wire connector provided on the electrical equipment and to all metal parts of swimming pool, spa, or hot tub, and metal piping (except gas piping), and conduit within 1.5 m (5 ft) of inside walls of swimming pool, spa, or hot tub.
5. Never open the inside of the drive motor enclosure. There is a capacitor bank that holds a mains supply voltage charge even when there is no power to the unit. The voltage should be referred to the individual pump operation voltage.
6. The pump is capable of high flow rates; use caution when installing and programming to limit pumps performance only.
7. Switch OFF pump power before servicing and disconnecting the main circuit to the pump.
8. Never change the filter control valve position while the pump is running.

COMPRESS AIR HAZARDOUS

This system enclosed pre-filter / filter and become pressurized. Pressurized air can cause the Lid to separate which can result in serious injury or death.
Pool and spa circulation systems operate under high pressure. When any part of the circulating system (i.e. lock ring, pump, filter, valves, etc.) is serviced, air can enter the system and become pressurized. Filter tank Lid and pre-filter cover must be properly secured to prevent violent separation. Place pre-filter / filter air relief valve in the open position and wait for all pressure in the system to be relieved before remove the lib to access the basket for cleaning.

HYPERTHERMIA
SPA water temperature excess 38°C (104°F) may be injurious to health. Measure water temperature before entering SPA. Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6 °F (37 °C). The symptoms of hyperthermia include drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase in the internal temperature of the body.

SUCTION ENTRAPMENT HAZARD

This pump produces high levels of suction and creates a strong vacuum at the main drain at the bottom of your pool and spa. This suction is so strong that it can trap adults or children under water if they come in close proximity to a pool or spa drain or a loose or broken drain cover or grate. The Virginia Graeme Baker (VGB) Pool and Spa Safety Act creates new requirements for owners and operators of commercial swimming Pools and spas.

Commercial pools or spas constructed on or after December 19, 2008, shall utilize:

1. A multiple main drain system without isolation capability with suction outlet covers that meet ASME/ANS
   A112.19.8a Suction Fittings for Use in Swimming Pools, Wading Pools, Spas, and Hot Tubs and either:

2. A safety vacuum release system ( SVRS) meeting ASME/ANSI A112.19.17 Manufactured Safety Vacuum Release systems (SVRS) For Residential and Commercial Swimming Pool, Spa, Hot Tub, and Wading Pool Suction Systems and/or ASTM F2387 Standard Specification for Manufactured Safety Vacuum Release Systems (SVRS) for Swimming pools, Spas and Hot Tubs or

3.  A properly designed and tested suction-limiting vent system or

4. An automatic pump shut-off system.

Commercial pools and spas constructed prior to December 19, 2008, with a single submerged suction outlet shall use a suction outlet cover that meets ASME/ANSI A112.19.8a and either: 1 . A SVRS meeting ASME/ANSI A112.19.17 and/or ASTM F2387, or 2 . A properly designed and tested suction-limiting vent system, or 3 . An automatic pump shut-off system, or 4 . Disabled submerged outlets, or 5 . Suction outlets shall be reconfigured into return inlets.
There are five types of suction entrapment according to The Virginia Graeme Baker (VGB) Pool and Spa Safety Act 1 Body Entrapment a section of the torso becomes entrapped 2 Limb Entrapment an arm or leg is caught by or pulled into an open drainpipe 3 Hair Entrapment or entanglement hair is pulled into and/or wrapped around the grate of the drain cover 4 Mechanical Entrapment the bather’s jewelry or clothing gets caught in the drain or the grate 5 Evisceration the victim’s buttocks come into contact with the pool suction outlet and he or she is disemboweled.

WARNING

TO REDUCE ENTRAPMENT HAZARD RISK
Two function suctions outlets per pump must be installed to prevent entrapment. The minimum separate of suction on the same plate must be at least point to point measurement 1 meter (3ft) apart. It is used to avoid “dual blockage” by bather. If suction is found damage, broken, cracked, missing or not securely attached during regular checking, shunt down the pool and replace it immediately. A vacuum release or vent system is recommended to install for suction entrapment release.
