(Have a trained pool professional perform all pressure tests).
Before pressure testing, make the following safety checks:
1. Check all clamps, bolts, lids, and system accessories prior to testing.
2. Release all air in system before testing.
3. Tighten trap lid to 4.1kg-m torque for testing.
4. Water pressure for test must be less than 170kPa (25 PSI)
5. Water tempertaure for test must be less than 38°C
6. Limit test to 24 hours. After test, visually check system to be sure it is ready
for operation. Remove trap lid and retighten hand tight only.
Fire and burn hazard. Modern motors run at high temperatures. To reduce
risk of fire, do not allow leaves, debris, or foreign matter to collect around the
pump motor. To avoid burns when handling the motor, let it cool for at least
20 minutes before trying to work on it. A thermal overload switch protects the
motor from heat damage during operation.
Only qualifi ed, licensed personnel should install pump. The electrical
installation shall be in accordance with the national wiring rules (AS/NZS 3000)
for class I, IP55 rated products. Refer to page 10 for Electrical Installation.
