GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS.2.

Introduction.2.1.

The swim-against-the-current unit is a piece of

equipment for swimming pools that propels a large

jet of water by means of an electric pump.

It is used for practising swimming against the

current.

As an option, and by using a massage hosepipe

(not supplied), it can have the function of propelling,

together with the water, microbubbles which in

contact with the user’s body provide a pleasant

sensation with hydrotherapeutic effects.

It is available with a round or square plate and

the possibility of ﬁtting three different versions of

wallmounted pump-control panel, depending on the

power supply or the power of the electric pump to

be installed.

Main functions.2.2.

Propulsion of water: with built-in manuala)

adjustment of water-jet ﬂow and direction.

Propulsion of air bubbles: built-in control ofb)

bubbles by choking off the passage of air, which

by venturi effect is propelled simultaneously with

the water jet.

Pump Stop/Start switch: ﬁtted with a pneumaticc)

push-button, which for reasons of electrical safety

remotely actuates the pneumatic switch on the

control panel, thus stopping or starting the electric

pump.

Masonry swimming pools.3.3.

Preparatory work.a)

Place the section to be embedded (16) with its

protective plate (17) ﬁxed in the metal mesh which

acts as a framework for the concrete.

Put it in position, bearing in mind that there must

be a distance of approximately 400 mm between

the centre of the section to be embedded and the

maximum height of the swimming-pool.

Position the surfaces of the part in a perpendicular

manner at the base of the swimming-pool.

The surface of the section to be embedded (16),

indicated by the letter S in (Fig. J), must be

aligned with the surface of the concrete once it

has been sprayed, so that the front plate (6) is

well placed once the ceramic wall-tiles have been

ﬁxed in place. (Fig. J)

Once the concrete has been sprayed, remove the

protecting plate (17) and clean the surface of the

embedded section (16).

Attach the foam gasket (2) to the embedded

section (16).

Introduce the front section (3) into the embedded

section (16) and join together with screws (18)

(Fig. K)

Ensure that the rear body (3) is in correct position.

The word “HAUT” must be at the top part. (Fig. E)

Fitting front plate.3.4.

Pass the capillary pipe (7) through the hole in the

rear body (3) until it emerges from the end of the

hose on the side of the connections to the pump.

(Fig. N)

Fit the capillary pipe (7) by pressing it into the

pressure switch and ensuring that it is securely

connected.

Offer the front plate (6) up to the rear body (3),

ensuring that the rubber gasket is in place before

ﬁxing the unit with the 3 M5 screws (12).

For sprayed concrete swimming-pools, place

joints no.(19) and/or (20) as necessary to adjust

the jet of the front plate (6).

Fitting the air hose.3.5.

The hose must be attached to the wall to form an

air trap, or at a level above the maximum height

of the swimming pool, so as to avoid emptying the

pool. Alternatively, it can be attached to the wall at

a height between the waterline and the maximum

height of the pool. Use a securing staple (10) to

ensure correct ﬁtting.

Mount the ﬁlter (9) on the end of the hose in order

to prevent dirt entering. (Fig. P)

Fitting the pressure switch.3.6.

The hose must be attached to the wall to form an

air trap, or at a level above the maximum height

of the swimming pool, so as to avoid emptying the

pool. Use a securing staple (10) to ensure correct

ﬁtting.

Cut the hose to the right length to reach the

panel (8) and mount the ﬁlter (9) on the end of

the hose in order to prevent dirt entering.

The maximum length to ensure correct operation

of the pressure switch is 25 metres. It is advisable

to cut the capillary pipe to just the right length to

reach the panel (8), ensuring that the connecting

pipe is passed through again. (Fig. Q)

Connect the capillary pipe (7) to the pressure

switch, ensuring that it is ﬁrmly connected.

(Fig. R)

Fitting the pump.3.7.

Pump installation and assembly must be carried

out by an authorised installer.

General safety warnings.a)

The equipment must be ﬁtted following

current safety regulations for installing

swimming pools, and particularly standard

IEC 60364-7-702 and the special regulations

for each application.

The pump must be installed on a ﬂat surface

and attached to the ﬂoor.

To ensure the safety of persons, the pump

must be installed at least 3.5 metres from the

swimming pool.

The mains electricity supply must be protected

by an automatic power-supply cut-out device,

a residual current circuit-breaker switch (Δ fn)

not exceeding 30 mA.

Fitting the pipes.b) (Fig. S)

The connection pipes to the pump for

distances of up to 3.5 metres must have a

minimum diameter of DN63. For distances of

up to 5 metres from the swimming pool piping

of DN75 must be used, and DN90 piping for

distances of more than 5 metres.

Flow valves must be ﬁtted in the discharge

and suction pipes, so that the pump can be

removed for maintenance without draining the

swimming pool.

Particular care must be paid to ensure that

water cannot enter the pump motor or other

electrically powered parts of the installation.

Instruction manual

The premises in which the pump is installed

must comply with the complementary technical

safety instructions applicable to damp or wet

premises.

The premises must be provided with a drain

that allows water to be evacuated in the event

of ﬂooding of the premises that might be

detrimental to electrical safety and cause injury

to persons.

For optimum pump operation and reliability the

premises must be provided with a ventilation

inlet.

The installation pipes and accessories must be

made of PVC. Under no circumstances must

iron pipes or accessories be used, as they

could damage the plastic components of the

installation.

Electrical wiring.c) (Fig. T)

The wiring must be in accordance with EEC

standard or of type H07 RN-F according to

VDE 0250.

The electrical trunking must be watertight,

and connections and their ﬁttings must have a

sufﬁcient degree of protection against vertical

fall of water drops. Connections, trunks and

branch connections must always be housed in

leaktight boxes.

Installation and assembly must be entrusted to

an authorised installer.

Start-up.3.8.

Once the connections have been made and before

running the pump the leaktightness of joints must

be checked. Switch on the water supply to the pump

and eliminate any air left inside the pump by using

the bleed devices on the pump.

Start up the pump. Press “Start” on the electrical

panel (8) and press the pneumatic pump-start

button.

The pipe valves must be fully open during

pump operation and must never be closed

while it is running. Shutting off or quickly

reducing the passage of water can give rise to

pressure surges that could lead to equipment

breakage.

Leave the pump running for a few minutes and

check that the equipment has been correctly

installed.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE.4.

Starting / Stopping the pump.4.1. (Fig. U)

The pump will come into operation when the

pneumatic pushbutton is pressed, and will stop if it

is pressed again.
