STARTING THE FILTRATION UNIT
7
When the water in your pool is at
of the level of the skimmers, operate the
filtration unit for the first time as follows :
1. Prime the pump by filling it with water
through the hole provided
2. Screw in the Pool earth
3. Put the filtration unit in manual mode to start
the pump
You are strongly advised to unscrew and remove the drain plug from
the tank when you have finished installing the filtration unit.
Repeat the above steps if the priming procedure is not working
after 2 minutes.
It is vital that the pool be earthed in order to
remove stray currents from the water.
Stray currents are not dangerous to people,
but they do electrolyse the metal components
in the pool, which increases corrosion. They
can also disrupt the treatment probes,
resulting in incorrect amounts of product
being injected.
This is why FILTRINOV has included a pool
earth with these products. Screw it into the
threaded attachment point provided and
connect it to the earth rod with a Ø 6 mm
copper braid earth strap (parts not included).
A hole will have to be drilled in the tank to route
the braid through the packing gland provided.
