PRECAUTIONS Ceramic fire tile refractories are used in Raypak pool and spa heaters. Refractories must be treated with care because they can be harmful by inhalation and irritating to the skin, eyes and respiratory system. DURING FIRST FIRING OF THE WATER HEATER • Fumes and smoke may be produced. • Avoid breathing fumes and ventilate the area to clear. • Production of smoke should cease within 30 minutes. WHEN HANDLING • Minimise airborne dust. • Wear an approved mask or respirator.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE Recommended Weekly Maintenance (Residential & Premium models) Minor maintenance should be performed every week by the dwelling occupant. The minor maintenance includes: • • • • Monitoring your chlorine and pH levels on a weekly basis or everyday if the pool or spa is in high use.
COMMISSIONING COMMISSIONING MUST ONLY BE UNDERTAKEN BY A QUALIFIED PERSON WHO IS FAMILIAR WITH SAFE COMMISSIONING PROCEDURES. Ceramic fire tile refractories are used in Raypak pool and spa heaters. Refractories must be treated with care because they can be harmful by inhalation and irritating to the skin, eyes and respiratory system. Refer to “Precautions” on page 8 for the precautions to be taken when the water heater is first installed and operated.
RESET BUTTON Your Raypak pool or spa heater incorporates a red reset button located on either the front control panel or right hand side panel, together with a power failure recovery circuit. When power is first supplied to the pool or spa heater, or restored after being interrupted or isolated, the red reset button will illuminate briefly before the power failure recovery circuit operates. To operate the heater when power is first supplied or restored after being interrupted or isolated: 1.
Pressure Switch Adjustment For Models: P0131, P0200 to P0430 1. 2. Remove the In/Out access cover (water connection side) to gain access to the pressure switch. Steps 2-9 as per below For Models: P0127, P0167, PC0280, PC0430 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS HEATER CONTROLLER LAYOUT Note: The MODE button switches between Pool and Spa modes. BEFORE OPERATING 1. Ensure that the immediate area around the heater is clear of all combustible materials including chemicals and gases. 2. Familiarise yourself with the hand operated gas isolation valve located outside your heater. 3. Ensure that the heater is free from obvious damage. 4. Ensure that the correct power connections have been made and are able to be isolated. 5.
OVER-TEMPERATURE SHUTDOWN If the inlet water temperature exceeds 45°C, the heater will shut down and require a manual reset to restart. Once the unit has cooled to approx 35°C, the red reset button will illuminate and need to be pressed, after which the reset lamp will go out and the heater will resume normal operation. Note: There is no immediate indication of the over temperature shutdown; the control panel will still indicate a call for heat (small flame symbol).
