Wear protective gloves to prevent any cuts from possible sharp edges.
Do not carry the product holding it either by the cable harness or by water
connection tubes.
5.Preparing for use and installation
Unpack the equipment and start mounting the unit as described below. Also check with
instructions from vessel manufacturer.
5.1. Defroster
Securely mount defroster in one of following positions (vertical or horizontal) by means of
adequate screws or bolts and 4 slots in defroster’s casing (not included).

Instruction for use
Original version Marine Defroster 9 kW
PRD0390D03en www.albinpumpmarine.com 8 (16)
Following mounting positions (vertical blower axis) are possible, but not recommended. Product
will operate in such position, however longevity of blower will be decreased.
5.2. Control panel
Mount control panel in designated place by means of suitable screws or bolts (not included).
Control panel has four Φ4,5 mm (0,18”) holes shown below.
5.3. Electrical connection
Connect the unit directly or by means of extension cable to the vessel’s power supply with
adequate voltage, using matching connectors (see section 3 for details). Connect control panel to
extension cable.
Make sure that wires with cross section of at least 2,5 mm2(AWG 13) are used
to connect the unit to power supply.
Make sure that all connectors are properly connected and will not become
loose during normal operation.
Make sure defroster’s electrical circuit is fused with appropriate sized fuse (see
section 3).
Make sure that defroster is connected to adequate power supply with voltage
matching rated voltage of defroster. Incorrect connection can damage product.
We recommend applying technical vaseline to additionally protect electrical connectors against
moisture and dirt.

5.4. Water connection
Product is connected to water-based system by means of two 5/8” (outer diameter, ≈16 mm)
copper pipes with beads according to DIN 71550 standard.
Appropriate set of hoses and hose clamps should be used to connect the product to the system.
Make sure that hose clamps are mounted according to recommendation from manufacturer in
order to avoid any leakages or malfunctions. Pay attention to proper tightening torque and

5.5. Air connection
Securely connect air hoses to plastic hose adapters on both inlet and outlet sides.
Make sure that air hoses are affixed tightly to adapters by means of adequate clamps to prevent
any air leakages and loss of performance.
If needed, inlet adapters can be moved to sides of the unit, by removing two blinds covers
mounted on both sides of the unit and replacing them with inlet adapters from bottom side of the
unit. Blind covers must be fixed again to inlets on bottom of the unit. Otherwise performance of
the unit will be greatly lowered. Figure below shows unit with side-mounted inlet adapters.
