Introduction

The Evo Connect, is a clever device that serves as an interface between your heat pump and sanitizing
system for your swimming pool. It works by creating a separate circuit between the sanitizing and heat
pump inputs, which results in more efficient and cost-effective pool operation.

In simpler terms, the Evo Connect helps you save money on your pool’s running costs by allowing the heat pump and sanitizing system to work together smartly. It ensures that both systems function optimally while minimizing unnecessary energy consumption, ultimately making your pool maintenance more efficient and affordable.

Safety

This manual provides vital information on product installation, operation, and safe usage. Share this with the equipment’s owner/operator. Always adhere to basic safety measures during installation and use.
Failure to do so may lead to severe injury or equipment damage. Please read and comply with all warning notices and instructions in this manual.

The Evo Connect case contains live components, creating an electric shock hazard if opened. Seek assistance from the Evo Heat or their agent to replace a damaged power cord and avoid hazards.

Only a qualified person should install the product in accordance with AS/NZS 3000 wiring rules.
The Evo Connect should be installed in the correct pool zone and connected to supply via a power outlet that is protected by a residual current device (RCD) having a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30mA. The power outlet should have a degree of protection suitable for the pool zone.

To reduce the risk of injury, ensure that people lacking experience and knowledge are supervised or instructed before using the appliance. Do not allow children to operate the device.
For safety reasons, service must only be conducted by a qualified pool service professional after disconnecting from the mains power supply.

For servicing, rely on qualified pool service professionals or contact EvoHeat to arrange one.
DO NOT PLUG IN IF CARTON IS WET.

When using the Evo Connect:

Observe all applicable local, state, and federal safety regulations.

Take proper precautions with prescribed environmental and operational conditions.

It is important to maintain your Evo Connect, please periodically check for any wear on the leads to and
from your box and for any leaks from any associated close by pool equipment have which may impact it.

Installation

STEP 1: Remove the contents from the box and carefully plan all steps using the installation diagram and by reviewing the steps below.
STEP 2: Position the Evo Connect as indicated in the installation diagram, ensuring it is NOT too close to other equipment or power outlets but close enough to the Sanitizer, Pump, and Heat Pump power supply so the piggy-back power cord can plug in to its socket outlet and the Heap Pump Interface Cable can ready the heat pump.
STEP 3: Attach the Evo Connect controller to the wall by removing the simple “Click ON – Click OFF” wall mounting bracket that is attached to the controller case. Use the wall plugs and screws provided.

STEP 4: HP INPUT: Fit the two pin terminals on the HP Input cable to the potential free dry contacts in the heat pump. This is a signal from the heat pump to turn the pool pump ON.
STEP 5: SANITISER INPUT: Fit the piggyback point from the Evo Connect Sanitizer Input to the AC Socket outlet on the Sanitizer.
STEP 6: PUMP OUTLET: Plug the power cord from the pump into the AC Socket on the base of the Evo Connect.
STEP 7: Connect the plug top at the rear base of the Evo Connect to a wall power socket.
When connecting to the Heat Pump ensure the two pin terminals connect to a potential free contact.
This connection must be performed by the Heat Pump installers only.
Any voltage on this connection will lead to Evo Connect failure and void warranty.

Operation

The Evo Connect will operate under the below conditions as indicated by the LED display:

Heat Pump Demand	Sanitiser Demand	Pool Pump Status
OFF	OFF	OFF
OFF	ON	ON
ON	OFF	ON
ON	ON	ON

Troubleshooting

Fault Condition	Potential Cause	Remedy
Evo Connect not turning pump ON	EVO CONNECT inputs not plugged in	Check that the pump is securely plugged into Evo Connect AC socket. Check that an input signal is getting received from HP Input or Sanitiser. Check that Evo Connect power cord is plugged in to a wall socket and there is power at that point.
Evo Connect HP Input LED is not ON	No demand ON signal from the Heat Pump.	Check that the HP Input cable is receiving a closed contact from the Heat Pump. The Evo Connect sends a 5Vdc signal to the Heat Pump and receives it back to turn ON the pool pump.
Evo Connect Sanitiser LED is not ON	Sanitiser power lead is not plugged in securely to the sanitiser or no demand ON signal from the Sanitiser.	Check that the Sanitiser piggyback plug is securely fitted to the sanitiser and that there is output from the sanitiser to turn the pool pump ON.
Evo Connect Pump Outlet LED is not ON	No signal for it to turn on.	Check that there is a demand ON signal from the Heat Pump and Sanitiser.
