INSTRUCTION MANUAL

IN-GROUND AND SEMI IN-GROUND

COMPACT HOUSING

IMPORTANT: The instruction manual that you are holding in your hands contains

important information about the safety measures to adopt during installation,

start-up and maintenance. Thus, it is extremely important that both the installer

and the user read the instructions before beginning setup

For optimum performance of your in-ground/ semi in-ground compact housing

unit, follow the instructions below.

GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

Compact housing for a pool, to be installed in-ground or semi in-ground, made up of

a housing unit with an injected plastic box and two-piece cover. The back is fixed

and the front part can be easily lifted

According to the configuration, it houses the equipment for the filtration and

recirculation of the water in the pool tank

LOCATION

It is advisable to locate the equipment away from the pool, at least 3.5 m

Placing

it closer would mean non-compliance with the specific standard RBT

ITC-BT-030.

INSTALLATION

3.1. Do the excavation according to the measurements

3.2. Make a properly levelled concrete slab

KEOPS

KEFREN

3.3. Position the unit

3.4. Do the excavation to prepare for laying the intake and output pipes to the pool

and the electrical supply.

The intake and output pipes must rest on a bed of sand.

Connect the sump to a general drain with a slight slope

3.5. Perforate the unit on the side where the electrical supply is to enter, with a

diameter that matches the cable to be installed. Determine the section of the cable

depending on power consumption and drops in voltage.

Install a cable gland of the appropriate size for the cable section at the entry

IMPORTANT:

The installation must include a highly sensitive 2 pole differential on the general

panel (conforming to RBT ITC-BT-017). The differential is not supplied with the

compact housing.

Fill the side of the housing with gravel. In the case of very soft ground, build

retaining walls or, in the KEOPS housing, install the inner metal reinforcement (ref.

31105R1000).

Fill with earth, making a slight incline to prevent flooding

IMPORTANT

ATTENTION

– VERY IMPORTANT

•This equipment cannot be connected to a regular plug.

•This equipment requires proper electrical installation. This must be done by a

specialist, following all the standards on electrical safety in force in each country.

•The supply to the unit must always be protected by a highly-sensitive differential

•An earth connection is required.

•Use a section cable with the appropriate power for the unit and for the distance to the

control panel

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION (ONLY FOR MODELS WITH ELECTRICAL CONTROL BOX)

For safety reasons, place terminals that are appropriate to the section of the cables on the

ends of the cables to be connected. Use cable H07RNF.

START-UP

1. Only in the

KEOPS housing.

Remove the two covers from the housing to begin

start-up. Unscrew the screws that attach the cover to the housing, before lifting it

2. Open the filter and fill it halfway with water. Protect the diffuser in the interior of

the filter so sand does not get into it.

3. Fill the filter with the appropriate quantity (indicated on the specifications label,

or up to 2/3 of the total filter height) of silex sand with a grain size of 0.4 - 0.8

4. Assemble the T manometer, the seal, the manometer and the air purge cover.

Teflon tape is not necessary, as this point is sealed by the seal. Do not tighten the T

of the manometer with any tools; it is enough to do this with the hand.

5. Clean the remnants of silex from the mouth, cover and casket housing, and close

the filter. For more information, please consult the filter manual.

If the unit is below the water level, you will only need to open the input and output

valves and the air vent until the filter and the pump are full of water.

6. Put the valves in the following positions:

- SKIMMER

OPEN

- SUMP

OPEN

- POOL CLEANER

OPEN

- RETURN OPEN

- SELECTOR VALVE

WASH

7. Start up the pump and do a filter wash

Perform the washing operation until the water comes out clean and clear in the

window of the selector valve

8. Turn off the pump

Position the selector valve to rinse and run the pump for about 15 seconds.

Stop the pump again and put the selector valve in the filter position

9. Close the selector valve of the pool cleaner

10. Connect the pump

Note: Any changing of the position of the selector valve must be done with the

pump stopped. Otherwise, the filter or the installation could be damaged.

Replace the cover of the unit, affixing the rear part with the corresponding

screws.

ATTENTION

IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU USE A LOCK OR PADLOCK SO THAT

CHILDREN OR OTHER UNAUTHORISED PERSONS CANNOT ACCESS THE

INTERIOR OF THE UNIT

PROGRAMMING THE FILTER. See instructions for the programmer in the interior

of the control panel.

ONLY FOR MODELS WITH AN ELECTRICAL CONTROL PANEL

USER MANUAL

ATTENTION

ALWAYS STOP THE PUMP BEFORE CHANGING THE POSITION OF THE

SELECTOR VALVE

5.1.

FILTRATION

With the pump stopped, put the selector valve handle on FILTER. Start up the pump.

Periodically check the manometer during operation, which will indicate the degree of

saturation of the filter.

5.2. WASH

The solid particles in the pool that are collected by the sump and the skimmers

remain in the sand in the filter, which constantly decreases the water flow. Due to

this, the pressure increases progressively. When the pressure reaches 1.3 kg/cm2, a

WASH will be done (this is an approximation; it depends on the distance between

the unit and the pool, its location, etc.).

Proceed as follows:

Put the selector valve in the WASH position and start the pump. Run this for 2

minutes. Always check the window of the selector valve to ensure that this is the

correct time, since it depends on the amount of dirt accumulated in the filter.

1.3 kg/cm2 - 18.5 PSI: This pressure indicates when it is necessary to proceed with a WASH

5.3. RINSE

After doing a WASH of the filter and before returning the equipment to filtration,

it is advisable to run a RINSE to prevent the first quantity of water that is still

cloudy from going directly into the pool. To do this, with the pump stopped, put

the selector valve on RINSE. Start up the pump and run it for about a minute.

Always check the window of the selector valve to ensure that this is the correct

time, since it depends on the amount of dirt accumulated in the filter.

5.4.

CIRCULATION

When you put the selector valve in this position, the water from the pump will

circulate directly to the pool without passing through the filter.

5.5. DRAIN

If the pool does not have a drain in the bottom, it can be emptied using the filter

pump by putting the valve on DRAIN. To do this, open the valves of the sump and

close those of the skimmers and pool cleaner.

5.6. LOCKED

This position blocks the entry of water into the

filter.
