Water Flow Rates - Aquacal Water Source WS03 Installation Manual

1.2.g Water Flow Rates
Maintain water flow rates as indicated. Please note, these specifications relate to the heat pump only. Code-
specified whole system turnover rates must be satisfied.
NOTICE
Water flow exceeding maximum flow rates will negatively affect the total pool filtration performance and may
l
damage the heat pump. This will not be covered under the equipment warranty.

PLEASE NOTE -
If minimum flow rates are not met, heat pump performance is reduced and performance
will suffer. Internal safety devices may deactivate the heat pump with the following
errors:
HIGH PRESSURE FAULT

HP5 SYSTEM LOCKOUT

LOW PRESSURE FAULT
l
LP5 SYSTEM LOCKOUT
l
Operate water filtration devices per manufacturer's specifications. Dirty filters can cause a reduction of water
l
flow to the heat pump. An increase of 7-10 psi (48 to 69 kPa) higher than the clean filter pressure typically
reduces flow rates. This requires the filter to be cleaned or back-washed.
Keep baskets free of debris. A large quantity of debris in the pump and skimmer baskets can reduce water flow.
l
Check for improper valve settings. A partially closed valve after the filter, or a full-open bypass around the heat
l
pump, will cause insufficient water flow through the heat pump.
The maximum static pressure (or operating pressure) is 50 psi (345 kPa) unless a special "high-pressure" unit
l
Failure to heed the following may result in damage to equipment.
