4. GENERAL DIAGRAM OF THE REFRIGERATING CIRCUIT
Heat pumps use electricity to capture heat and move it from outside air to pool water. They don't
generate heat.
As the pool pump circulates the swimming pool water, the water drawn from the pool passes through
a filter and the heat pump. The heat pump has a fan that draws in the outside air and directs it over
the evaporator coil. Liquid refrigerant within the evaporator coil absorbs the heat from the outside air
and becomes a gas. The warm gas in the coil then passes through the compressor. The compressor
increases the heat, creating a very hot gas that then passes through the condenser. The condenser
transfers the heat from the hot gas to the cooler pool water circulating through the heat pump. The
heated water then returns to the pool. The hot gas, as it flows through the condenser coil, returns to
liquid form and back to the evaporator, where the whole process begins again.
Higher efficiency heat pump pool heaters usually use scroll compressors versus the reciprocal
compressors of standard units. Heat pump works efficiently as long as the outside temperature
remains above the 7-20℃ range. The higher of the temperature of outside air they draw in, the more
energy they use.

6. CONTROL SYSTEM AND PROTECTION
The heat pump is fitted out with 2 control systems:
- A temperature sensor of the evaporator, it is being used to control defrosting operation..
- A temperature sensor placed on the exchanger, when the temperature of the water reaches the
required temperature, the heat pump will be stopped. The normal cycle will restart when the
temperature in the exchanger drop down to 2°C lower than presetting temperature.
Main protection:
- Protection of lacking water for condenser.
- High and low pressure protection of refrigerant.
- Temperature protection of compressor discharge.
- Integrated to the card, a magnetic ammeter/circuit breaker on the compressor.
If an error occurs on one of these systems (defective system, off-line or abnormal measured value), a
message of error will appear on the display screen; see the paragraph “Error codes and what to do”
of this note.

8. INSTALLATION
8.1 Rules of installation
Electric and plumber job must be carried out according to local standards.
The machine must be installed outside.
8.2 Foundation
Mount the unit on a level, sturdy base, preferably a concrete slab or blocks. The size of the base
should be at least: 1200mm x 900mm
The unit’s supporting base must be high enough to keep it completely free of standing water at all
times.
8.3 Location
Vertical Unit:
This unit features an ‘up-flow’ discharge
for quiet operation. Air is pulled up
through the evaporator coil and
discharged through the top grill. Allow
at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) clearance above
the unit for unrestricted air discharge.
DO NOT install the unit under a porch
or deck
Horizontal Unit:
This unit features a ‘side-flow’
discharge for quiet operation. Air is
pulled up through the evaporator coil
and discharged through the front side
grill. Allow at least 5 ft. (100 cm)
clearance in front of the unit for
unrestricted air discharge.
Power supply
KS120 / KS150: 220~240V, single-phase , 50Hz
KS200 / KS250: 380~400V, triple-phase, 50Hz
KS70 / KS90 / KS140 / KS170: 220~240V single-phase current, 50Hz
Control
The heat pump is fitted out with a Flow Switch to protect it from damage and for cooling circuit
protection.

9.4.1 Manual defrosting:
The heat pump is set for defrosting automatically.
Under special conditions, it is possible to force defrosting by pressing the button . The default
force defrost time is 8 minutes. This defrosting could be stopped by pressing the button OFF.

9.4.5 Reset Button:
when press the button for 4 seconds, and the following points will return to initial state
(Windows default):
0. Flow switch detection: 0
1. Defrost starts temperature: -7℃
2. Defrost stops temperature: 10℃
3. Interval of defrost : 45 minutes
4. Time of defrost : 8 minutes
Stage 1:
Access to the seal of the filling gas valve
in removing the rubber cover ; before starting the heat pump,
connect the manometer, the needle must shows before
starting and to an ambient temperature around 20℃,
a pressure from 14 to 16kg/cm².
Stage 2:
Close completely the bypass valve and open largely inlet and outlet valves of the heat pump; in these
conditions the totality of the water flow goes by the heat pump.
Put into service the Heat Pump in heating mode, wait for the indicated pressure being stabilized; the
correct setting of the pressure is from 28 to 30 kg/cm²;
In most of cases (pump of filtration given a flow until 20m3/h) you do not have to open the bypass
valve.
If the stabilized pressure is under 28kg/cm², the progressive opening of the bypass valve will allow
rising this pressure.
The adjustment of the bypass valve done, you have in principle no reason to modify it during the
season. See the paragraph “Environment problem” too.
10.2 Defrosting
The defrosting is necessary only in heating mode. Steps for defrosting:
1) To start: Defrosting starts if the following conditions are fulfilled at the same time:
a. The compressor and the fan motor run without stopping;
b. The defrosting sensor temperature lower than 3℃, and the duration of time more than 45 minutes;
c. The defrosting sensor temperature goes down to -7°C (factory setting).
2) The compressor and the fan stop;
3) After 10 seconds, the 4 way valve shifts
4) Five seconds after its stop, the compressor starts alone and the accumulated freeze on the gills
becomes melting, what is generally with a steam cloud.
5) Stop: The defrosting stops if one of the following conditions is fulfilled:
a. The defrosting operates 20 seconds and the detected temperature by the defrost sensor goes
up to 10°C (factory setting).
b. The defrosting mode had run totally 8 minutes
20

6) The compressor stops
7) After 10 seconds the 4 way valve shifts
8) Five seconds after its stop the compressor and the fan start for restarting in heating mode.
The temperature sensors of compressor outlet, the magnetic circuit breaker on the compressor
power supply, are both protect compressor from damages caused by extreme weather conditions;
when compressor stop, the error messages E 05 or E 06 will display on the control panel.
Note: these error codes are likely to occur if temperature of swimming pool water is high and
the ambient air is hot.
