Power Clean Installation Instructions

CAUTION:

  • Disconnect electrical power to cooler before installing your POWER-CLEAN ® system or servicing cooler
  • Installation must comply with cooler manufacturer’s specifications and all applicable building and electrical codes. For safety against electrical shock, cooler cabinet, blower motor, pump(s) and switch(es) must all be properly grounded.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE:

  • Disconnect Electricity to Evaporative Cooler.
  • Unplug Pad Pump
  • Place Pump Screen Onto POWER-CLEAN ®
  • Pump.Mount POWER-CLEAN ® Pump Inside Cooler. Secure pump to blower housing with mounting bracket.
  • Install Hose Adapter Into Overflow Pipe. Place proper end of hose adapter into overflow pipe. See markings on hose adapter.
  • Attach 1/2″ Hose From POWER-CLEAN ®
  • Pump To Hose Adapter. Securely attach hose onto pump. Connect other end of hose onto hose adapter. Avoid kinking hose — cut hose if deemed necessary.
  • Plug-In POWER-CLEAN ® Pump. Note the specially integrated plug and receptacle on the POWER-CLEAN ® pump cordset.
  • Plug-In Pad Pump. Plug your pad pump into the specialPOWER-CLEAN ® pump receptacle.
  • Connect Piping To Remove Cooler Water. Do not allow cooler water to run onto the roof. Connect garden hose, or 3/4″ PVC piping from the underside of the cooler drain to an appropriate drain site on the ground. Use of 45-degree elbows instead of 90-degree elbows is recommended. This will prevent unsightly roof stains as well as potentially damaging effects to roof shingles.
  • Reconnect Electricity to Evaporative Cooler.
  • OPERATING:Your POWER-CLEAN ® system automatically removes the water in your cooler once *every 8 hours that the cooler pad pump is “ON”. This periodic draining replaces the ‘hard’ water that naturally develops in the cooler with clean, fresh water in a consistent manner. The result is decreased scale build-up, longer pad life, less cooler maintenance and lower water usage (compared to a standard bleed-off system).

IMPORTANT:

  • POWER-CLEAN ® drains the water depth to less than 1/2 inch.
  • During the POWER-CLEAN ® draining cycle, both purge and pad pumps are “on”.

CONTENTS:

1 Mounting Bracket

1 Pump Screen

*1 Pump Hose (1/2″ I.D., 30 inches long)

Note for Tucson, Arizona Area Installations:

Certain building/electrical codes require the use of a “P-26 Fuse Box”, such as the G.E. Model No. T-U261F rainproof power outlet fuse box when wiring a cooler.

When using this fuse box, a fuse rated at 1.6 Amp might be required for proper operation of the POWER-CLEAN ® system vs. the smaller 1.25 Amp fuse. These fuses are a type S time delay and must be used ahead of the cooler pump and POWER-CLEAN ® system.
