Active Aqua AACH10 - Usage Guidelines and Warnings; Special Notes and Instructions

Note:DoNOTusesoapordetergentsforcleaningtheinternalcomponentsofthechiller
system.
1. Disconnectthechiller andsubmersibl ewaterpumpfromthepowersupply.
2. Cleanoffthepump withahighpoweredhoseorsprayertoremovedebrisanddirtfrom
thepre‐filterandhousing.Cleanthepre‐filteraswellifoneisused.
3. Reconnectthepumptothechillerinflowtubingandplaceiti nacleanreservoir.
4. Fillthereservoirwithcleanwaterandaflushingagentformulatedtoremovesalt
depositsandexcessnutrientsfromtheplantsystemandgrowmedium(availableat
mostindoorgardeningandhydroponicretailers).
Note:Usingaflushingagentiscompletelyoptionalasstatedinstep4.
5. Pluginthe pumpandallowittorunforatleast1hoursothattheprojectedsolution
contactsalloftheinternalcomponentsusedinthechillerduringoperation.Unplugthe
pumpandemptythereservoirsolution.
6. Repeatstep4and5withplainwaterONLY.
7. Removethefrontgrillfromtheunitsotheairinletfilterisaccessible.Cleanbothwitha
vacuumand/orbrush.
8. Replacetheairinletfilterandgrilltothefront.
SpecialNotesandInstructions:
• Thecoolingefficiencyofthisunitisrelativetothesurroundingenvironmenti.e.install
location,ambientairtemperature,additionalheatsources(growlights,pumps,CO
2
generators,airconditioners,dehumidifiers,etc.),andanyotherconnectingpartsthat
mayimpedethechiller’soperation.Insufficientairexchangeoftheroomthe chilleris
occupying willreducetheoperationalefficiencyiftheambientairtemperaturerises
dueto heatoutputfromthechillerand/orotherequipment.
• FollowtheGPH(gallonperhour)recommendationssothattheappropriatesizepump
maybeimplemented.Apumpthatiseithertooweakortoopowerfulmayimpedethe
operation.Verticaldistancebetweenthepumpandthechillerwillaffectthesizeof
pumpthatisneeded.For example,ifthepumponlyneedstoprojectwater2'togetthe
chiller unit as opposedto10',asmalleronecanbeused.
• WerecommendthatthepowersourcesupportONLYthechillerunitandnoadditional
appliancesinordertopreventapowersurgeorcircuitoverload.
• Remoteoperationofthechillerunitoutsideofthegrowspacewillreducetheamount
ofheatgeneratedwithinthegarden.
Warnings:
