TriFlo Spa Bath Pump
Congratulations on the purchase of your new TriFlo spa bath pump. The TriFlo spa bath
pump has been specifically designed for spa bath applications to ensure that you have
optimum spa jet performance and many years of trouble free operation.
The TriFlo pump internal design allows the water to self-drain so that there is minimal residue
water left in the pump when the spa is emptied in accordance with Local Health
Regulations when installed correctly.
TriFlo spa bath pumps are designed for spa bath operation only and should not be used in
chemically treated water or any other purpose without seeking written approval from
Edgetec Systems Pty Ltd for the application.

Installation Instructions (refer page 4, 5 & 6)
1. To ensure optimum performance of your spa bath the TriFlo pump should be
located as close as possible to your spa bath (maximum 3 Metres). To ensure
high efficiency of your TriFlo pump, use the minimum amount of pipe fittings
during your pump to spa bath installation. Correct installation allows water to
drain from pipe work to pump and from pump to the self-drain suction fitting
in the bath.
2. The pump can be located internally or externally. If the pump is fitted
externally, Edgetec recommends to fit the Pro-Tec pump cover as shown on
page 4 (not supplied).
3. Internal installation must have adequate
ventilation (minimum area 50cm²) for the
pump motor. Inadequate ventilation may
cause the motor to cut out on thermal
over load. If this occurs the thermal will
reset when the motor cools down.
4. Asuitable drain tray (Edgetec #6450) on
internal installations should be installed to
avoid water damage to property should
any leaks occur from mechanical seal due
to normal wear.
5. Install the TriFlo pump as per page 3(using
the least amount of elbows. It is most
important that the suction line be installed
with a minimum of 1:100 gradient (0.5°)
(refer page 3) as this allows the water to
drain from the pump and pipe work when
the bath is emptied.
6. The pump should never be installed as shown in page 6 & 7.
If the pump does not prime –check the pump height and pipework
installation. If the pump is installed as shown in any of the images in page 5,
the pipework will airlock and prevent the pump from priming. Activating the
air bleed valve MAY improve priming.
7. The pump to be fixed to the frame or support through the pump mounting
points in the pump base with appropriate fasteners. Two anti-vibration
isolation washer buttons are provided with the pump for the fasteners.
8. Before connecting the pump to the pipe work, check pipe alignment to
barrel unions. The pump is not a pipework alignment tool! Pipe misalignment
will stress the barrel union nuts and may cause a leak!
9. Ensure that all the pipe work is clear of any debris as small particles can
cause blockage to spa jets or the pump impeller causing serious damage
10. Barrel unions only require to be hand tightened, over tightening may cause
damage to the unions and or o rings. Do not use Stillsons or any other
mechanical leverage.
11. IMPORTANT REQUIREMENT FOR PUMP SERVICE:
Pump installation must provide access for pump removal.
To allow for pump removal a serviceman must be able to reach the
barrel unions.
For under the hob installation- an access panel must be provided on
the installation.

Electrical Connection
1. Spa bath pumps must be fitted in accord with AS3000 electrical wiring rules
2. AS3000 requires all 240 V pumps installed in Spa Bath to be supplied from a
circuit protected by a residual current device (RCD) with a maximum rated
residual current 30 mA.
3. The TriFlo spa bath pump is fitted with a standard lead and three pin plug for
240-220V 50Hz power supply.
4. The spa bath pump power connection must be accessible so that it can be
independently switched off in case of an emergency but must not be
accessible by the bath user.
5. If damage occurs to the power cord it must be replaced by Edgetec or an
authorised service agent or suitably qualified person.
Air Tube Connection AH & XH Models (refer page 7)
1. Supplied with your spa pump is a 4 metre roll of 3mm clear air tube, fit one
end of the air tube to the air button (supplied with the spa bath) on the spa
bath.
2. Uncoil the air tube so that you can connect it to the air switch located on the
pump (refer page 7) at the rear of the pump motor on the capacitor cover.
3. Cut off excess tube and ensure that the tube is not kinked, do not wrap or
loop excess tube around frame work of the bath or pipe work as this may
cause the air button not to operate correctly.
Touch Pad Cable Connection ST & ET Models (refer page 7)
1. Supplied on your spa bath is the Sensa Touch Pad, connected to the touch
pad will be a 4 metre RJ45 cable.
2. Uncoil the RJ45 cable and you will see that one end is already connected to
the touch pad on the spa bath.
3. Connect the other end to the pump as per page 6, ensuring that the RJ45
cable connection clip is fully inserted. Push the RJ45 connector until you hear
it “click” into the lock position. Do not wrap or loop excess cable around
frame work of the bath or pipe work!
4. Push the protective rubber cap that is on the cable over the circular housing
(refer page 6) to protect the touch pad cable connection. Failure to do this
will void your warranty.
5. When power is activated there will be a “Green”indicator light activated on
the touch pad to show that the connection is fitted correctly from the pump
to the touch pad.
Start Up –TEST ALL PIPEWORK AND PUMP OPERATION –PRIOR to TILING!
1. Fill the spa bath to approximately 50mm above the spa jets, check the pump
and pipe connection for any leaks.
2. Ensure that the pump power outlet is switched to the “on” position.
3. Auto-Heat & Xtra-Heat pumps. (AH & XH Model) Press the air button on the
spa bath, the pump will start and purge the air from the system and your spa
will start to operate. To stop the spa, simply press the air button again.
4. Sensa/Eezi-Touch pump. (ST & ET Model) Press the pump symbol on the touch
pad, the pump will start and purge the air from the system and your spa will
start to operate. To stop the spa, simply press the pump symbol on the touch
pad again.
5. Spa-Key. (SK Model) Press the pump symbol on the hand set, the pump will
start and purge the air from the system and your spa will start to operate. To
stop the spa, simply press the pump symbol on the hand set again.
6. If the pump fails to prime you may have an air lock, please refer to activating
air bleed. If after activating the air bleed - the pump will still not prime –
check the height of the pump and adjust to the correct level.
