INSTALLATION

This appliance must be installed by a trained pool professional service technician. When installing the
appliance, ensure all parts are installed in the correct zone in accordance with the wiring rules. In particular
refer to AS/NZS 3000 (Australia) and EN 60364 (EU).
The appliance is not intended for use by person including young children or infirm persons with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Please ensure that young children are supervised to ensure that they do not play with the pump.
Once the pump has been removed from the box, it should be handled by the suction inlet and the
engine body, and should not be held up in just one point.
A. Plan position of pump so that it will be:
1. Free of water flooding, such as in a sump, garden hollow, ditch or at bottom of bank with run off.
2. On a stable base so that:
a) The pump is not left suspended by its fittings, causing a leak or failure with loss of water.
b) Movement through vibration is restricted
c) No strain is put on attaching pipe or other expensive equipment
3. Accessible for maintenance and easily removed for service.
4. Breathing space. Pump should not be crowded which will prevent cooling airflow from fan.
Overheating due to lack of cooling voids warranty.
5. Within reach of power point without extension/plugs liable to corrosion, shorting, etc.
6. At a minimum height of suction lift of water from pool surface to pump inlet.
B. For best pump performance keep suction pipe length as short as possible with minimum number of bends
and use 50mm high pressure PVC suction and return pipe. All equipment such as filters, heaters,
chlorinators must have a minimum of 50mm connections.
C. Secure the barrel unions supplied into the attaching pipe work, using approved priming fluid and solvent
cement as normal practice, coating both surfaces. NOTE: Always wear protective gloves when handling
and using glue and priming fluid. Ensure no excess adhesive runs into the union proper affecting the
sealing or removal abilities. Allow 24 hours to dry before starting pump. Do not use "green" glue on barrel
unions. This can cause damage to the ABS material used to manufacture the unions.
D. Install isolation valves before the pump section and after equipment, if the pump is below the water level
of the pool.
E. For pump installations 500mm above water level, it generally requires a foot valve at the pool or check
valve in the suction line. Suction lines must be installed below water level until just in front of pump
location and vertical riser used to reach pump inlet. AstralPool pumps are rated to a maximum head of 25
metres however refer to your pumps data plate for actual achievable pressure.
F. All pumps will operate quieter and perform more efficiently if a straight length of 450mm pipe is plumbed
horizontally into the front of the pump.
G. Water temperature not to exceed 45C degrees.
