SpaNet Mini 1 Quick Start Manual page 6

- The filtration pump should be installed in a level horizontal plane and must be securely fastened to
the spa base or metal frame
- The heater should have sufficient clearance from the spa base to allow the mac unions to be easily
unscrewed to enable servicing (if required)
- The heater should NOT be installed floating in mid-air on flexible pipe. We recommend installing
close to the spa base plumbed with rigid pipe where possible (as pictured above)
- The heater can be installed on either the suction or discharge line however the heater MUST be
orientated so that the water flows over the internal heater sensors first
- We recommend installing a pipe spacer support (that is securely fastened to the spa base or frame).
A pipe saddle should then be used to secure the pipe work to the spacer support
- This design ensures all flex and movement created by water flow through the pipe work is absorbed
by the secure point where the saddle is fitted and will minimise the chance of mac unions loosening
over time
Heater Terminal Connection
The 230V power to the heater is provided from the Heater Terminal Block on the SV Mini PCB. This is a high
voltage, high current connection. It is extremely important that care is taken when connecting the heater
wires, ensuring that all terminal connections and screws are tight and secure. Failure to complete this wire
connection securely could cause excess heat, arcing and/or a burnt connection or PCB. PRODUCT
FAILURES AS A RESULT OF POOR CONNECTION AT THE HEATER TERMINAL BLOCK WILL NOT BE
COVERED BY THE SPANET PRODUCT WARRANTY.
V.2005
IMPORTANT NOTE
Ensure heater wires are connected to the
terminal block correctly and confirm that
terminal screws are tight and secure.
NOTE: A hand-held screwdriver should be
used to complete the heater wire
connections. Powered screwdrivers or
impact drills can strip the screws and
damage the PCB
Heater Sensor Cable Routing
Ensure sensor cable is routed DOWNWARDS, using
one of the bottom cable grooves to secure in place
(refer green line aside).
DO NOT route the sensor cable UP or cause the
cable to bend on a tight radius
