Installation and Operating

Instructions

WARNING: Failure to follow these instructions and comply with all applicable

codes may cause serious bodily injury and/or property damage.

The installation of this product should be carried out by a person knowledgable

in swimming pool plumbing requirements following the installation instructions

provided in this manual.

Congratulations on the purchase of a quality product from the Davey Water

Products range of Pool and Spa Equipment. You are assured of many years

of reliable and super-efficient performance from your Davey PowerMaster

ECO-Series pump.

Read these instructions in their entirety before switching on this pump.

If you are uncertain as to any of these installation and operating instructions

please contact your Davey dealer or the appropriate Davey office as listed

on the back of this document.

Davey PowerMaster ECO has been designed to circulate swimming pool

and spa water in conditions set out in the Australian Standard for swimming

pool water quality AS 3633 or equivalent. They should not be used for any

other purpose without first consulting your Davey Dealer or the Davey

Customer Service Centre.

Every Davey PowerMaster ECO is thoroughly water tested against a

number of flow, pressure, voltage, current and mechanical performance

parameters. Davey`s advanced pump manufacturing technology provides

reliable and efficient pumping performance that lasts and lasts.

Saving Energy with your Davey PowerMaster

ECO-Series Pump:

The Davey PowerMaster ECO Series Pool & Spa pump is an 8 Star super

efficient pump utilising a very clever, state of the art 3 speed brushless DC

motor that provides lower levels of noise, lower operating costs and lower

greenhouse emissions than traditional pool pumps.

Due to its ability to run at lower speeds than conventional pumps, your

PowerMaster ECO Series pump will also experience less mechanical wear

and tear due to less stress on the internal mechanical components.

To achieve energy efficient pumping is easy. Simply

run the filtration pump at a low speed, but run it for

longer (see table on page 9) than a conventional

fixed speed pump to “turn over” your pool water for

adequate filtration and sanitisation. The result is lower

energy use and up to 70% lower operational costs. It’s

like driving your car on a long distance trip at 80 kmh

instead of 110 kmh. It will take you a lot more time, but

you will use a lot less fuel!

The PowerMaster ECO Series has 3 speeds, so you can circulate the

water at Eco speed, then switch to medium or high speed only if required.

Medium speed will help to power an automatic pool cleaner, while high

speed should be selected to backwash a media filter or when you want to

manually vacuum your pool.

What to expect with Eco speed pumping (energy efficient operation) on

your pool:

If your PowerMaster ECO-Series pump is replacing a traditional AC motor

pump, you will need to run it longer than your old fixed speed pump. This is

NORMAL and you will save energy when using Mid or Eco Flow settings.

You may also notice that the pressure gauge on your filter is indicating

a much lower pressure than you are used to. This is also NORMAL. The

lower system pressure is simply a result of the lower speed and flow rate

produced by the pump.

Your PowerMaster ECO-Series pump is capable of being programmed in

50rpm increments from the Eco speed to the High speed and from High

speed to the Eco speed. The Mid speed is also programmable in 50rpm

increments up to the High speed and down to the Eco speed. This function

is available to assist in those applications where greater than normal friction

losses are experienced in your pool hydraulics circuits.

• Please consult your pool pump installation professional, Davey or your

Davey dealer for advice on this function.

While running at the lower speed settings you will also notice a significant

reduction in pump noise. This is a major benefit for you as it allows you to

run your pump during off peak electricity tariffs, which will also assist in the

reduction of your operating costs. Plus you will also have much happier

neighbours.

Important Considerations for Low Flow Operations:

Many pool products rely on particular minimum flow rates for best operation

and/or efficiency. If you are using a low flow pump on your pool, such as the

PowerMaster ECO Series pool pump, Davey recommends that you check

the compatibility of it with other pool equipment such as:

• Automatic and Robotic pool cleaners

• Ozone generators

• Pool Heaters

• Solar Heating systems

• Salt Water Chlorinator cells

• In-floor pool cleaning systems

Installation of the PowerMaster ECO Series Pumps:

Location

The pump should be located as close to the water as practicable and

mounted on a firm base in a well drained position, high enough to prevent

any flooding. It is the installer’s/owner’s responsibility to locate the pump

such that the nameplate can be easily read and the pump can be readily

accessed for service.

Weather Protection

It is recommended that the pump is protected from the weather. Enclosures

should be ventilated to prevent condensation build-up and allow a free flow

of air for the fan cooled motor.

Power Connection

Davey PowerMaster ECO is suitable for connection to a nominal 220-240

volt 50Hz power supply and are equipped with a flex and 3 pin plug. If a

power outlet is not available within 3 metres of the pump, a 3 pin power

point in a safe, dry place may need to be provided by an electrician.

Extension cords are unsafe around pools - and should be avoided. If the

supply cord of this product is damaged it must be replaced by the dealer or

manufacturer, with genuine Davey spares.

This PowerMaster Eco Series pump incorporates motor overload detection

designed to protect the motor from overheating. If the motor gets too

hot during operation, it’s operating speed will reduce to bring it within an

acceptable operating temperature and then will speed up to the originally

set speed.

To reset the motor, switch the power off for 30 seconds, and then return the

power from the mains switch not the “STOP” button on the speed selection

panel.

Davey Water Products recommends that all installations are tted with

earth leakage or residual current protection devices.

CAUTION: In the interest of safety, we advise that all brands and types

of pool pumps must be installed in accordance with AS3000 wiring rules

or equivalent.

If the pump and lter are located below pool water level, it is necessary to

t isolating valves in the pipe between the pump and skimmer box and in

return pipe from the lter to the pool.

The ttings on this product are constructed of ABS. Some PVC jointing

compounds are incompatible with ABS. Check compound suitability

before use.

PowerMaster® Pool Pumps are fitted with an internal check valve to

reduce reverse flow of water through the pump.

NOTE:

Warning! Ensure that an electrical isolation switch is located with easy

access so that the pump can be switched off in an emergency.

Pipe Connection

A barrel union is provided for connecting to the piping from the pool. The

barrel unions are designed to accept 40mm PVC on the ID or a 50mm PVC

fitting on the OD.

When plumbing the discharge pipe, ensure that the pipework does not interfere

with the touchpad’s protective cover, which needs to fully open and close.

The use of any pipe smaller than those specified above is not recommended.

Suction piping should be free from all air leaks and any humps and hollows

which cause suction difficulties.

The discharge piping from the pump outlet should be connected to the inlet

connection on the swimming pool filter (usually at the filter control valve).

Barrel unions need to be hand tightened. No sealant, glues or silicones

are required.

Prior to using this pump you must ensure that: Checklist

• Low Speed Setting is compatible with other pool equipment 

• The pump is installed in a safe and dry environment 

• The pump enclosure has adequate drainage in the event of leakage 

• Any transport plugs are removed 

• The pipe-work is correctly sealed and supported 

• The pump is primed correctly 

• The power supply is correctly connected 

• All steps have been taken for safe operation 

• The filter has been plumbed with 40/50mm pipe 

Ensure pipework

from discharge does

not interfere with

protective cover.

To realise the best energy efficiency from your pump, please follow these

installation recommendations:

• Suction pipe length should be kept as short as possible

• Install a 450mm long straight pipe horizontally into the front of the pump

• Minimise the number of bends in the plumbing

Starting the Pump

To operate efficiently and prevent pump damage there must be a free flow

of water to and from the pump. Before starting ensure that:

• All pipework is correctly sealed.

• The pool/spa water level is at the correct height (at least halfway up the

skimmer base).

• All appropriate valves are open and there is nothing preventing the

• flow of water through the system.

The Davey PowerMaster ECO Series motor has 3 speed settings, Eco

Flow, Mid Flow and High Flow. It will always start on High Flow setting to

aid priming and after 2 minutes will automatically revert to the last used

speed setting.

NOTE: During high speed start up, the LED for the last set speed will flash.

1. First prime the pump by removing the strainer basket lid and filling the

strainer basket area with water. Replace the lid, ensuring that it seals on

the large o-ring.

2. Connect to the power supply and switch on.

3. Allow the pump to run, so that any air trapped may be expelled. It will start

in High Flow mode (high speed) for 2 minutes in order to prime effectively.

4. If prime is not established within approximately two minutes, as evidenced

by a strong flow of water and no bubbles returning to the pool, switch off

the pump and repeat the procedure. Continued evidence of air under the

strainer basket lid indicates an air leak in the suction piping which should

be rectified to avoid pump damage.

For optimum pump performance, the strainer basket housing should always

be full of water and free from air bubbles. The water level of the pool should

always be maintained to at least halfway up the skimmer box ensuring

water is in the pump at all times. From time to time it may be necessary to

re-prime the pump. This should be carried out as described above.

Never run pump dry. Running the pump with no water may damage the

mechanical seals, causing leakage and ooding. Dry running damage

and associated damage is not covered under warranty.

Low Energy Operation:

Your PowerMaster ECO Series pump has 3 speed

settings which are also programmable:

1. Eco Flow – Lowest Speed

2. Mid Flow – Medium Speed

3. High Flow – Highest Speed

• Eco Flow mode provides the lowest speed

and therefore the greatest energy savings.

• For programmable speed options and settings,

please contact your pool pump installation

professional, Davey or your Davey dealer.
