1. General information
When in use
Do not touch the vent during operation due to the risk of serious injury.
Do not leave the heat pump within reach of children due to the risk of injury caused by the heat
exchanger fins.
Never start the equipment if there is no water in the pool or if the circulating pump is stopped.
Check the water flow rate every month and clean the filter if necessary.
When cleaning
1.
Switch off the power supply to the device.
2.
Close the water inlet and outlet valves.
3.
Do not place anything in the openings of the water or air inlets/outlets.
4.
Do not spray the appliance with excessive amounts of water.
During repairs
Carry out work on the refrigerant system in accordance with current safety regulations.
Brazing should be performed by a qualified welder.
When replacing a defective refrigerant component, use only parts certified by our technical
department.
When replacing pipework, only copper pipes conforming to Standard NF EN12735-1 may be used
for repairs.
When pressure-testing to detect leaks:
•
Use dehydrated nitrogen or a mixture of nitrogen and refrigerant.
•
To avoid the risks of fire or explosion, never use oxygen or dry air.
The low and high side test pressure must not exceed 42 bar.
1.3
Water treatment
Poolex heat pumps for swimming pools can be used with all types of water treatment systems.
Nevertheless, it is essential that the treatment system (chlorine, pH, bromine and/or salt chlorina-
tor metering pumps) is installed after the heat pump in the hydraulic circuit.
To avoid any deterioration to the heat pump, the water's pH must be maintained between
6.9 and 8.0.
