iCool Compact Series | Owners Manual
Important Safety Warnings
iCools can only be connected to the voltage
marked on the machine.
They are manufactured
as either 110v or 220v machines, but they are
not multi-voltage. Using a different voltage
may cause severe damage.
All models can be
used on both 50 Hz and 60 Hz AC supplies.
To ensure safe operation only connect to power
sockets that meet your your local electrical
safety regulations. The MiPod must have an
approved earth connection that complies with
all safety regulations to ensure that the built in
safety devices can provide full protection.
Power Supply Voltage
An Approved Earth Connection Is
Essential For Safe Operation
Your iCool has many essential safety features to
protect against such things as:
A loss of water flow
Overheating of the system
Electrical shock protection
If any such potentially dangerous situation
should occur, in most cases your iCool will
sound an alarm, shut itself down and a warning
screen will appear to assist you to identify and
correct the problem. Further assistance is
usually available under the “
Help
” menus.
In the case of overheating, the large main fan
may continue to run for some time even after a
shut down, until the temperature is safely back
to normal.
For the safety of users, any leakage of even a
small amount of electrical current will instantly
cause the Residual Current Device to remove
all electrical power from the entire system. The
maximum leakage allowed is 30 milliamperes
which is considered to be a generally harmless
level.
Built In Safety Systems
The built in residual earth leakage safety system
can only protect users against electric shock
from the MiPod. It can not protect against
faults in other unrelated electric devices in the
area. All electric devices in any pool area must
only be connected to a power supply that has
a residual earth leakage device either at the
main switch board or on the device itself.
Never
risk using unprotected or unearthed electrical
devices near water.
Limits To The Electric Shock
Protection System
The power input socket must be connected to
a standard AC power capable of providing at
least 13 amps in countries with a 220 V supply
and 26 amps in countries with a 110 V supply.
The MiPod requires much less power than this
for normal operation, however all heat pump
compressor motors need considerably more
power for up to a minute each time they start
up and this must be allowed for.
