Antifreeze Protection

The internal antifreeze protection will start the filtration if low temperatures are detected.
This protects me in areas where running the pool all year round is possible and protects against short periods of cold weather.
Protection Antifreeze can be configured ON in the
Freezing presents risks to pools and pool equipment. Expansion of the water as it moves from the liquid to the solid state can crack
pipes and burst fittings, as well as the filter and the pump body.
PoolCop has two means of detecting a freezing risk. It is recommended that BOTH freezing protections be utilized, and that freezing
protection be selected ON in the
PoolCop freezing protections can only assist in the protection of equipment. PoolCop cannot guarantee
When freezing risk is detected and filtration is started, the pump CANNOT be stopped until the
temperature detected is higher than the protection setting, or the Protection Antifreeze is switched OFF
4.4.4.7.1 Internal Freezing Protection (for Pool Equipment)
Internal temperature sensing detects low temperature and starts the filtration to move warmer water from the pool through the
plumbing to reduce the risk of damage due to freezing, if the protection is
to a certain degree.
If the Water Temperature Sensor detects a temperature below 2°C (35.6°F), the Alert "WARN: FREEZING RISK" will display if freezing
protection is OFF, or freezing protection will be activated if freezing protection is ON in
PMP, the filtration will run at all times that the temperature is less than 2°C (35.6°F) and will continue for a period of 30 minutes after
the temperature rises above 3°C (37.4°F).
4.4.4.7.2 External Freezing Protection (for the Pool)
There can be great differences in temperature between the pump and filter installation and the pool itself. The optional Air
Temperature Sensor is highly recommended so that external air temperature can be used to alert to the risk of freezing and start
filtration.
If the optional Air Temperature Sensor is fitted, measured temperature is used to trigger antifreeze protection when temperature is
below the desired setting (see 5.5.2). The Alert "WARN: FREEZE RISK" will display if protection is OFF, or freezing protection will be
activated if freezing protection is ON in
temperature is below the threshold and will continue for a period of 30 minutes after the temperature rises above the threshold.
Alternatively, an external thermostat can be installed and connected to an input channel so that external air or water temperature can
be used to alert to the risk of freezing and start filtration. When an external thermostat sensor is connected and configured on one
of the inputs and detects a temperature lower than the thermostat settings, the Alert "WARN: FREEZE RISK" will display if protection
is OFF, or freezing protection will be activated if freezing protection is ON in
filtration will run at all times that the temperature is less than the trigger temperature set on the external thermostat and will continue
for a period of 30 minutes after the temperature rises above the set trigger temperature.
