1.2 - SHIPPING AND TRANSPORTING
The pump will always be moved in a vertical (and never in a horizontal) position. No matter what the means
of transport employed, delivery of the pump, even when free to purchasers or the addressee’s domicile, is
always at the purchaser’s risk. Claim for any missing materials must be made within 10 days of arrival, while
claims for defective materials will be considered up to the 30th day following receipt. Return of pump or
other materials to us or the authorized distributor must be agreed beforehand with the responsible
personnel. Material should be disassembled and packed with care. All parts in contact with the chemical
should be purged and rinsed for everyone’s safety. In the case of non-compliance with this guideline, we
reserve not to support the materials and to return it at your expense and any damage created by the
chemical on the material will undergo a repair quote.
1.3 - PROPER USE OF THE PUMP
The pump should be used only for the purpose for which it has been expressly designed namely the dosing
of liquids. Install the pump in a dry place and well away from sources of heat, and in any case, at
environmental temperature not exceeding 40°C. The operating minimum temperature depends of the
liquid to be pumped, bearing in mind that it must always remain in a liquid state. Any different use is to be
considered dangerous. The pump should not therefore be used for applications that were not allowed for
in its design. In case of doubt please contact our offices for further information about the characteristics of
the pump and it proper use. The manufactures can not be held responsible for damage deriving for
improper, erroneous or unreasonable use of the pump.
1.4 - RISKS
• After unpacking the pump, make sure that it is completely sound. In case of doubt, do not use the pump
and contact qualified personnel. The packing materials (plastic bags, polystyrene, etc.) should be kept out
of the reach of children: they constitute potential sources of danger.
• Before you connect the pump make sure that the voltage ratings correspond to your particular voltage
supply. You will find this value on the rating plates attached to the pump.
• The electrical installation to which the pump is connected must comply with the standards and good
practice rule in force in the country under consideration.
Use of electrical equipment always implies observance of some basic rules. In particular:
- Do not touch with wet or damp hands or feet.
- Do not operate the pump with bare feet (typical place: swimming pool )
- Do not leave the equipment exposed to the atmospheric agents
- Do not allow the pump to be used by children or unskilled individuals without supervision
• The pump has to be supplied through an isolating transformer or supplied through a RDC ( max operating
current = 30mA ).
• In case of breakdown or improper functioning of the pump, switch off, but do not touch. Contact our
technical assistance for any necessary repairs and insist on the use of original spares. Failure to respect this
condition could render the pump unsafe to use.
• In case of damage of power supply cord please ask the repair to our technical assistance or qualified and
authorized personnel.
• When you decide to make no further of an installed pump, make sure to disconnect it from the power
supply.

Before carrying out any service on the item, check:
1. Disconnect the plug from the mains.
2. Relieve all the pressure from the pump head or the injection tube.
3. Drain or flush all dosing liquid from the pump head. This operation can also be done with the
pump disconnected from the plant by turning the pump upside-down for 10 seconds and
without connecting the tubing to the nipples.
In event of possible losses on the hydraulic system of the pump (breakage of the O-ring, the valves or the
hoses), the pump should immediately be brought to a stop, emptying and depressurizing the delivery hos
while taking all due the safety precautions (gloves, goggles, overalls, etc.).
1.5 - TOXIC AND/OR DANGEROUS LIQUID DOSAGE
To avoid risk from contact with hazardous liquids or toxic fumes, always adhere to the notes in this
instruction manual:
• Follow the instructions of the dosing liquid manufacturer
• Check the hydraulic part of the pump and use it only if it is in perfect condition
• Use only the correct materials fir the tubing, valves and seals to suit the liquid to be dosed : where
possible shield the tubing with PVC conduit.
• Before disconnecting the metering pump, make sure to flush out and neutralize the pump head with the
proper reagent liquid.
1.6 - ASSEMBLING AND DISMANTLING THE PUMP
1.6.1 -ASSEMBLY
See paragraph 3.0 “Installation and recommendation”
1.6.2 - DISMANTLEMENT

2. Description of pump
The POOLeasy pH is characterised by its capacity to measure the pH value (between pH 0 and 14) thanks to
its sensor placed in a filtration circuit that analyses your pool's water.
As a function of the value measured, the POOLeasy PH injects, using its dosing pump, the quantity of
reagent necessary to maintain pool water balance.
The POOLeasy PH operates in acid (pH-) or alkali (pH+) dosing mode, depending on its configuration.
