2. Variable speed centrifugal fan. When the AA300 is delivered the fan is set to run at two speeds: medium speed when the machine senses a demand for dehumidification (and air heating) and low speed for when there are no demands.
2.3. The isolator is then energised. The MAINS light on the side of the heat pump will illuminate indicating mains ON. If the AA300 is fitted with an LPHW the time clock will start to run. The time clock has a battery reserve fitted which when charged will run for 100 hours so that isolating the machine for short periods will not affect the time clock settings.

The time clock is a quartz 24 hour clock with 100 hours battery reserve used to control the automatic operation on the AA300 unit per 24 hour time cycles. The time clock setting determines the OCCUPIED/UNOCCUPIED periods and is set to match the operators requirements regarding opening and closing times for the pool and possible times where the pool is covered.
UNPACKING DUCT On delivery the console for the AA300 will be inside the machine. To retrieve the console unfasten the removable panel on the heat pump. The console should be in the position shown, protected by bubblewrap. Note: the removable panel is on the opposite face of the heat pump to the water connections.

SITING, MACHINE LOCATION SERVICE ACCESS TO ELECTRIC BOX FILTER ACCESS PANEL NOTE: If the optional flexible ducting flange is not used, due consideration to resonant noise through the duct work must be made. If little or no ducting is fitted it is possible to lower the top speed of the fan. With the machine isolated move the white/black wire connected to terminal 18 to terminal 17 in the electric box.

2.1 PLUMBING CONDENSATE DRAIN The condensate driptray in the ‘AA300VHF’ unit collects the water removed by the dehumidification process. It is therefore necessary to ensure that the’AA300VHF’ unit is placed on a level plinth so that the condensate can run away and not overflow the edges of the driptray inside the machine. The ‘AA300VHF’...

These are voltage free contacts (from terminals 6 & 7) rated at 3(1) Amp at 230 Volts. If the low pressure hot water supply to the unit is to be governed by the Calorex unit then these contacts should be utilised to bring water to the unit via the boiler, motorised valve, boiler pump etc. Remember the maximum inductive load is one amp.
Has the fan speed been set to match the sensors fitted. j) Any sign of abnormal operation such as water dripping should be reported immediately to an installer or Calorex. k) Has fan run amps been recorded against datasheet.
