This product is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons unless they have been adequately supervised by a responsible person
to ensure that they can operate the product safely.
Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the product.
Your Aqua Control, Inc. products are made entirely of corrosion resistant materials including stainless steel, aluminum alloy, bronze and
engineered plastics. They will provide safe, long and satisfactory service if properly installed, operated and maintained.
1.
Follow all applicable local and state electrical codes.
2.
Protect exposed or vulnerable wiring with tubing or conduit.
3.
Do not operate the unit when it is obvious the flow rate is reduced.
4.
Do not work on the unit when it is turned on or operating.
5.
Follow all normal safety precautions when working in and around the water.
6.
Prevent tension on the electrical wires.
7.
Do not carry or pull the unit by the lights or by the cable. Use the finger pockets on the float.
8.
Never try to dislodge debris from the impeller or propeller while the motor is connected to the power supply.
9.
Always verify the control panel and all electrical equipment are grounded properly.
10.
Any time high voltage electricity is used underwater, a potential safety hazard exists. Aqua Control builds and provides
UL listed control panels that are standard equipped with a Class A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) for both motors and
lights. Class A GFCI's are designed to provide protection against electrocution for people. They have a nominal trip level of 5 ma
and are designed to shut the circuit off in 25 milli seconds. Such a system will shut off a current resulting from shorts or
dangerous leakage, whether from the motor, electrical cables or controls, befor a hazardous current can develop.
Prior to installing, verify the correct product has been ordered and received. Aqua Control, Inc. will not accept any returns for refund or exchange
of product or components that have been installed in the water or modified in any way. Keep original packaging for returns to the
factory or contact the factory for instructions as to how to obtain packaging for safe return of product.
1.
Check the packing list that came with the shipment. Make certain all the boxes have been received. Each label will have a box number
and total for the shipment (1 of 5, 2 of 5). The packing list has the total number of boxes noted at the bottom.
2.
Check the pond depth. Is the pond deep enough for the unit being installed?
3.
Verify the incoming voltage where it will be connected to the control panel. Does the measured voltage match the rated
motor voltage requirements? Note the HP, voltage and phase on the packing list.
4.
Is there a VFD operating from the same power supply or in the vicinity that might interfere with the GFCI?

    WARRANTY DISCLAIMER: Many variables must be considered before deciding to operate a Select Series 2 Vertical Aerator or Titan Fountain (never a Select Series 2 Fountain or Horizontal Aerator) during the winter. These variables include but are not limited to the depth of the lake, overall size of the lake, climate variation, predictability of cold, and loss of power in winter conditions.
  • Page 14 To sink a unit for winter storage, the pond depth must be 4 to 6 feet plus the height of the unit itself. Get the minimum water depth from the Aqua Control brochure, add 4 to 6 feet plus the normal depth of ice on the pond. If the pond does not have sufficient depth, then sinking is not an option for winter storage.
