EVAstream Series Counter Current Swimming Machine

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Important safety instructions: rotating parts
The EVAstream Move is a powerful machine with rotating parts. Safety measures have been taken to ensure the safety of fingers, toes and also to prevent hair entanglement.
Nevertheless, you should always maintain a safe distance from the machine.
Despite the safety measures implemented to prevent hair entanglement, every EVAstream user is advised to wear a swim cap. EVAstream complies with the following safety standards: DIN EN16582-1/2/3, EN16713-2 (residential pools) and EN13451-1/3
(commercial pools).
Important safety instructions: child supervision and safety
The EVAstream should not be used by children under 8 years old. Children under 16 years of age should never use EVAstream without adult supervision. The EVAstream Move may only be placed in the pool by an adult.
The EVAstream Move is not a toy. Keep your distance from the machine and absolutely do not hang from, pull on or sit on top of the turbine.
Never use or store the EVAstream in a room/area where the temperature is below the freezing point.

OVERVIEW EVASTREAM INSTALLATION

CREATE THE BEST SWIMMING ZONE

1. 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.

2. 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.

3. 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. ****

4. 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

in speed
Button –|
Short press:| decrease intensity 5%
Long press:| decrease intensity as long as you press for a stepless decrease in speed

2. On/off Switch

The remote control has an on/off switch on the back. The on/off switch disconnects power from the battery. In the 0/off position, the remote control will not function. 3. Replacing the batteries

1. Remove the back piece (3 screws).
2. Remove the batteries.
3. Insert the new batteries.
4. Replace the back piece (3 screws).

EVA EXPERIENCE WEB APP

By default, the EVAstream is controlled with the included remote control. In addition, the EVA Experience web app can be added for an enhanced swimming experience.
We have developed a complete training program for swimmers of every age and every skill level. The workouts consist of interval, sprint and endurance elements and increase in duration and intensity. Use the EVA Experience web app as your very own personal swimming trainer!

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).

• Make sure that there are no people near the suction and outflow area of the turbine before turning on the EVAstream.
• The machine may only be operated under water. The machine must always be fully submerged before use. Serious and permanent damage to the machine can occur if the EVAstream is not submerged during use.
• The water (water values) and surroundings must meet the requirements for environmental conditions.
• Installation depth: the EVAstream can be placed at a maximum of 50 cm below water level.
• The machine and the pool in which it is placed must be free of obstacles before turning on the machine. Small objects and toys must be removed from the water and from the bottom to avoid damage to the machine.
• The EVAstream is only intended to be used as a counter-current swimming machine.
• Use for any other purpose must be discussed with the manufacturer in advance and must be documented in writing.
• Make sure that EVAstream users always read these instructions before use.
• Store these operating instructions in an easily accessible place near the machine.

10.2 Rules for a safe use

• Despite the safety measures implemented to prevent hair entanglement, every EVAstream user is advised to wear a swim cap. Wearing a swim cap enhances your safety and swimming experience.
• Make sure that there are no people near the suction and outflow area of the turbine before turning on the EVAstream.
• The suction of water takes place around the machine.
• Always make sure that the suction parts are completely free of obstacles.
• These parts of the machine must never be closed or blocked in any way.
• This not only provides an adequate supply of water, but it also ensures that the suction power always remains within the required levels (EN 13451-1/3).
• When operating the EVAstream, always ensure that the machine and pool in which it is located are in sight.
• Make sure that toys and small parts have been removed from the water and the bottom of the pool before switching on the EVAstream.
• Always maintain a sufficient distance from the EVAstream for your safety. Sufficient distance is at least 50 cm on both the front and the sides.
• Consider the force of the flow when using the EVAstream. Adjust the speed to the strength and skill of the user.
• Ensure that no people stand, sit, or otherwise place weight on the machine.
• Never submerge the battery control unit of the EVAstream. The battery control unit should always be kept dry.
