INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing a Cygnet Evolution 2 aquatic electric heater manufactured to the highest standards in England. To ensure years of trouble-free service, please read and follow these instructions for proper installation, maintenance and use. WARNING: Failure to install the unit correctly may result in the warranty being void.
2. GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION 2.1 Mounting instruction The heater should be either installed horizontally or vertically allowing enough space for the pipe connections and wiring. It should be firmly secured using screws to a firm base or wall. WARNINGS: If the heater is placed against a combustible material a fireproof barrier must be placed between the unit and the wall, this must cover a minimum of 15cm around the outside of the heater.
2.2 Pipe work The heater should be installed at a low point in the filtration system. It should be positioned downstream of (after) the filter and upstream of (before) any dosing or other water treatment plan (see Fig 3). Fig.3 Fig.4...
2.3 Flow direction The heater can accept flow of water from only one end (see Fig. 5). If the flow direction is opposite to Fig. 5 the heater must be rotated by 180° so the flow switch is always where the water exits. DO NOT REVERSE THE FLOW SWITCH INLET OUTLET...
If flexible pipework is used Connect the pipe to the non-threaded side of the hosetail and secure using two jubilee clips (See Fig. 7) • The hosetail may need to be cut depending on the diameter of the pipe. NOTE: •...
Connections • To connect the power supply cable, remove access cover (see Fig. 8). • Make sure that all connections to the terminal block are correct as per the label inside the heater and they are tight. • Make sure not to expose the cable to anything which can cause damage to it i.e. sharp edges, hot surfaces, or crush hazards.
3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 3.1 Flow requirements The flow rate of water into the heater must not exceed 17,000 litres per hour (17m /hour/3,740 UK gallons per hour). A higher flow rate will require the installation of a bypass to prevent damage to the heater elements.
Fig. 10 Fig. 11 3.4 Choose your language On initial power up, the display will illuminate and show a language message, (see Fig. 12). If the controller detects inactivity for 3 seconds, it will default the language to English. Fig. 12 There are five languages to choose from English, French, Spanish, German and Russian.
3.5 Set point The setting can be changed (desired water temperature), any time by simply turning the knob clockwise or anti clockwise until the required temperature is shown on the display (see Fig.13). To confirm the changes, press the knob button (OK). The display should show ‘SAVED’...
The heater will stay on until the set temperature point is reached. When reached the heater will maintain the pool temperature within 0.5°C differential. 3.7 Calibrate temperature If for any reason the water temperature displayed by the controller is different to the water temperature in the pool, adjust this by pressing and holding the dial button for five seconds.

➢ Heater will not switch from standby to on (Red light): In most cases this will be the result of one of the following points not being met: Possible Cause 1: The temperature point set has been achieved. To confirm the increase of the temperature set, turn the dial to a value greater than the current water temperature.

Possible Cause 5: SHUTDOWN HIGH AMBIENT message (See Fig.19). The heater is fitted with intelligence sensors not only monitoring the water temperature but also the temperature within the electrical enclosure. To protect the components if the temperature inside the enclosure reaches 60°C, the controller will shut down and go to STAND BY mode.
➢ Heater is tripping circuit breaker (MCB) after few minutes/ hours of operation: If the heater is faulty it will instantly trip the circuit breaker (MCB). The most likely causes of tripping the breaker after a period of time are: Possible Cause 1: Faulty circuit breaker.
