WARNINGS AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 3/3
GENERAL WARNINGS
• Never open the inside or the motor enclosure. There is a capacitor bank that holds a 230
VAC charge even when there is no power to the unit.
• The IntelliFlo
®
VSD2 pump is not submersible.
• The IntelliFlo
®
VSD2 pump is capable of 35 m3/hr or 30 meters of head. Use caution
when installing and programming to limit pumps performance potential with old or
questionable equipment.
• Code requirements for the electrical connection differ from country to country. Install
equipment in accordance with all applicable local codes and ordinances.
• Always press the stopp button and disconnect the communication cable before performing
maintenance.
• Sufficient equipotential bonding (min. 4.5mm² recommended), in accordance with local
regulations, is required on all metal components of the pool including the pool pump. It
is required for electrical safety as well as to reduce the risk of corrosion.
GENERAL INSTALLATION INFORMATION
• Pumps improperly sized or installed or used in applications other than for which the
pump was intended can result in severe personal injury or death. These risks may include
but not be limited to electric shock, fire ,flooding, suction entrapment or severe injury or
property damage caused by a structural failure of the pump or other system components.
• The pump can produce high levels of suction within the suction side of the
plumbing system. These high levels of suction can pose a risk if a person comes
within the close proximity of the suction openings. A person can be seriously
injured by this high level of vacuum or may become trapped and drown. It is
absolutely critical that the suction plumbing be installed in accordance with the
latest national and local codes for swimming pools.
• In a domestic environment, this product may cause radio interference in which case
supplementary mitigation measures may be required.
• Do not install on IT (insulated terra) mains network (marine applications).
• Fitting a non-return valve after the pump on installation will prevent the impeller from
unwinding and is strongly recommended.
NOTE — If required by local building codes, the pump is to be supplied by an isolating
transformer or supplied through a residual current device (RCD) having a residual operating
current not exceeding 30 mA.
NOTE — Use RCD/GFCI type A or B.
• These instructions contain information for a variety of pump models and therefore
some instructions may not apply to a specific model. All models are intended for use in
swimming pool applications. The pump will function correctly only if it is properly sized to
the specific application and properly installed.
