CREATE THE BEST SWIMMING ZONE
-
Determine swimming zone
You start by determining your swimming zone, see the image below: *Measurements based on an adult professional swimmer.
Body size and mass affect swim speed. -
Turbine placement EVAstream 250 mm
For the positioning of the turbine we advise 250 milimeters (centre of the turbine) below water level. Mount the EVAstream horizontally in the wall, in the middle of the wall. -
Check the swimming zone
The flow is directed at the torso and not at the head, so that there is free breathing space while swimming. The current is also wide and stable enough to encompass the entire body. When you swim over the water flow, or you get water in your face, the turbine has to be adjusted. **** -
Adjust the turbine if necessary
You can adjust the turbine a little higher or lower with the adjustment jig at the customer’s request. The turbine can be adjusted a maximum of 2 degrees downwards or 3 degrees upwards using adjusting bolts on the side. This way you ensure that every customer has an optimal swimming experience.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
4.1 Read before cleaning
WARNING
You should first make sure that the installation completely voltage-free by
removing the plug from the socket. If the installation is permanently
connected to 230V mains, switch off the main switch/isolation switch (mounted
in the technical space near the Motor Control Unit) before you start working.
It is not enough to use the on/off switch, as this does not make the
installation completely voltage-free. You must use the isolation switch to de-
energise the entire installation!
4.2 Cleaning after use, winter storage and maintenance
NOTICE
- The EVAstream comes equipped with a connection cable with a power plug. Before carrying out any maintenance, you must remove the plug from the socket, disconnecting the installation from the power supply.
- The flexible surface-mounted version (mounted with EVA-SM-A00/A01/A02/A03) of the EVAstream can easily attached to the pool wall before use and remove it again after use. We advise you to remove the machine from the pool when you are not using it.
- If you do not heat the pool during the autumn/winter period, remove the EVAstream (turbine) from the pool. The EVAstream turbine must remain frost-free. If the EVAstream or parts of it are frozen, it can causeirreparable damage to the machine.
- Using the EVAstream if the power cable is damaged is not permitted. Always ensure the safety of yourself and other users, especially when using electrical devices in and near water.
- Never clean the machine with concentrated cleaning agents.
- At the end of the life cycle of the EVAstream, the device/parts must be returned, in accordance with your local guidelines, to the appropriate collection points.
REMOTE CONTROL
The Remote control is automatically connected to the EVAstream.
If you also want to control the lighting with the remote control, this group
must be switched on manually. You can enable this in the EVA Experience web
app (chapter 6).
The Remote control has the following control options:
1. EVA Remote control options

SAFETY STANDARDS
The EVAstream swimming machine is an extra low voltage (ELV) system. Due to
the very low voltage, the machine is suitable for use in both private and
public swimming pools. Due to the very low voltage, the EVAstream swimming
machines fall well outside
of the scope of both the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC (1000Vac/1500Vdc or
higher) and the Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU (50Vac/75Vdc –
1000Vac/1500Vdc). Although the EVAstream (with a maximum of 30Vdc) falls well
outside of the scope of these standards, all EVAstream models meet the
relevant safety requirements as stated in both guidelines.
Specific safety standards for swimming pool products and installations All
EVAstream models comply with the following specific standards and guidelines
for use in swimming pools. These standards focus, among other things, on
electrical safety, electromagnetic interference and protection against hair
entanglement (hair safety).
