CMP DEL AOP 40 (01) PDF SUMMARY:
What are some important warnings and safety instructions to follow when installing the DEL AOP system?
Read the manual completely before attempting installation. Failure to install in accordance with the installation instructions could void the warranty and result in injury or death. All permanent electrical connections should be made by a qualified electrician. A pressure wire connector, labeled “bonding lugs”, is provided on the outside of the unit to permit connection to a minimum No. 6 AWG (13.3 mm2) solid bonding conductor between this point and any metal equipment, metal enclosures of electrical equipment, metal water pipes, or conduit within 5 feet (1.5 meters) of the unit as needed to comply with local requirements. Install at least 5 feet (1.5 meters) from the wall of the pool and follow all applicable electrical codes. Be sure to turn the power OFF and disconnect from the power source before any service work is performed, failure to do so could result in serious injury or death. The DEL AOP must be installed in an outdoor location, or indoors in a forced air ventilated room, and installed so that the orientation is exactly as shown in the instructions. Install to provide water drainage of the generator to protect electrical components. Mount the DEL AOP so that it is inaccessible to anyone in the pool and never attempt any servicing while the unit is wet. Do not inhale ozone gas produced by this device. Do not store or use gasoline, chemicals, or other flammable liquids or vapors near this or any other appliance. To maintain cosmetic integrity, protect this unit from direct prolonged sunlight exposure. Do not permit children to use this product. If the unit is not operated according to the instructions, high dosages of harmful substances may potentially be released. The Hg-Lamp contains mercury and must be managed in accordance with disposal laws.
What are the power requirements for the DEL AOP system?
The power requirements are 110V/240V and 60 Hz/50 Hz. The AOP 25 requires 0.7 Amps, and the AOP 40 requires 1.1 Amps.
What are the weight specifications for the DEL AOP system?
The shipping weight is 55lbs/25kg, the dry weight is 50lbs/23kg, and the wet weight is 64lbs/29kg.
What are the location requirements for mounting the DEL AOP system?
The unit can be ground or wall mounted. The ambient recommended temperature is 30°F – 120°F (0°C – 50°C). Additional system back pressure created in certain applications or by certain accessories may impact the system’s ability to pull vacuum properly, and can result in water pushing back into the ozone gas line and possibly into the ozone cell(s). Consult CMP if conditions exist that may introduce higher than normal back pressures (>3 psi).
What are the recommended flow rates for the DEL AOP system?
The AOP 25 has a minimum flow rate of 10 GPM and a NSF tested maximum flow rate of 30 GPM. The AOP 40 has a minimum flow rate of 20 GPM and a NSF tested maximum flow rate of 40 GPM. The unit must meet the minimum flow rate to activate the internal flow switch, and below this flow rate the system will not turn on. The NSF tested max flow is the rate at which a 3-log disinfection rate is achieved to meet the supplemental sanitizer requirements. Operation above the NSF tested max flow the level of undissolved ozone in the system may increase.
Where should the DEL AOP unit be located?
Locate the unit in a clean, protected area, either indoors or outdoors, preferably out of direct sunlight. If possible, locate the unit out of reach of sprinklers or drainage spouts. Allow sufficient access for maintenance (2 ft clearance above and 1 ft on either side of the unit) and all plumbing and electrical hookups. Front clearance for door swing is approximately 14 inches.
How is the DEL AOP unit mounted to the ground?
The DEL AOP is shipped with the mounting brackets installed in the ground mounting position. Adjust the position of the bracket if necessary and tighten the screws. Mount the unit to the equipment pad through the slots provided on the bracket using appropriate hardware for the mounting surface.
How is the DEL AOP unit mounted to a wall?
Four ¼”-20 screw holes are located on the back of the enclosure for wall mounting. Remove the plastic screws from the back of the unit. Remove mounting brackets from the bottom of the enclosure, and re-assemble them to the back of the enclosure. Mount the unit to the wall through the slots on brackets using appropriate hardware for the mounting surface.
Where in the pool plumbing loop should the DEL AOP be installed?
Install in the pool main return line after all other pool equipment (pump, filter, heater, and cleaner). The outlet must be at least 10 feet from the first return to the pool. If installing a mixing de-gas vessel (MDV), allow 10 feet from the outlet of the MDV to the first pool return. Use the union fittings provided to connect the DEL AOP inlet and outlet to pool plumbing.
What is a Mixing De-gas Vessel (MDV) and when is it recommended?
Under normal operation, bubbles will appear in the return flow to the pool. To remove the bubbles from the flow, an accessory Mixing De-gas Vessel, or MDV, can be installed downstream of the DEL AOP. The MDV is designed for use with the DEL AOP and is recommended on indoor, covered, or vinyl-lined pools. It should also be used if a tab feeder is installed after the AOP system.
When is a Water Backflow Check Valve recommended for installation?
If the pool equipment is mounted above the water line, install a 2-inch CMP Hydroseal check valve between the pump outlet and the inlet of the DEL AOP to prevent the pump from draining and losing prime when not in use.
When is an Orifice Plate recommended for installation?
In cases where the return line pressure prevents proper operation, an orifice plate may be added to the inlet of the spring-loaded check valve. This can improve injector performance.
How do you test if the injector is performing properly?
If there is any question whether the injector is performing properly, a flow meter is provided in the parts kit to check for proper suction through the ozone cell. Operate the pool in the mode expected to introduce the highest return pressure. Remove the air filter from the ozone module. Attach the tubing from the flow meter to the ozone module. Hold the flow meter vertically and observe that the ball is above the “MIN” line. If the ball is not moving or is consistently below the “MIN” line, install the orifice plate.
How do you install the Orifice Plate?
Loosen the union fittings on both the inlet and outlet of the check valve to remove it from the system. Insert the orifice plate on top of the check valve with the cone shape downward. Reinstall and tighten the union fittings.
How do you perform a leak test?
Turn on the pool circulation system and run at the highest normal operating pressure. Check for leaks outside and inside of the AOP system. Correct any leaks outside of the system. If any leaks are found inside the AOP, contact Customer Service.
How should the DEL AOP system be connected to main power?
Connect to the pool timing clock so that the DEL AOP operates simultaneously with the pool pump. An access hole is provided for a 1/2” conduit fitting. Install the fitting (not provided) and run the wire to the terminal block inside the unit. Connect Line 1, Line 2 or Neutral, and Ground to the terminal block as indicated by the label on the electrical panel located on the inner right side of the enclosure. If there is no timing clock or automation system available, the system can be installed on the line voltage along with the variable speed pump.
How should the DEL AOP system be grounded?
Using a solid copper conductor, connect to the grounding lug on the right side of the DEL AOP to an appropriate earth contact.
How do you prepare the pool before starting the AOP system?
Backwash or clean filters one day before starting the AOP System. Raise the chlorine level to APSP recommended levels so the water has a sustained 1-3 ppm free chlorine level. Test pool chemistry and adjust pH between 7.4 and 7.6. Adjust total alkalinity between 80 and 120 ppm. Run pool filtration continuously for 24 hours prior to starting the AOP system.
How do you start the DEL AOP system?
Check electrical connections at the breaker box. Turn on the pool circulation system and the Smart Status LEDs will turn on automatically.
What do the Smart Status Indicators on the DEL AOP unit mean?
During normal operation, the power indicator light should be green, the UV-C indicator light should be purple, and the ozone indicator light should be blue. If the ozone service is due, the ozone indicator light will be yellow. If the UV-C service is due, the UV-C indicator light will be yellow. If there is an ozone error or fault, the power and ozone indicator lights will be red, while the UV-C indicator light is purple. If there is a UV-C error or fault, the power and UV-C indicator lights will be red, while the ozone indicator light is blue. If the ozone service is overdue, the power indicator light will be yellow, the UV-C indicator light is purple and the ozone light will be blinking red. If the UV-C service is overdue, the power indicator light will be yellow, the UV-C light will be blinking red, and the ozone light is blue. If there is a system error or fault, all three lights will be red.
How do you shut down the system?
Shut off the power at the breaker and shut off the water to the unit.
How do you winterize the DEL AOP system?
If the pool will be shutting down for the winter months and the DEL AOP will remain exposed to freezing temperatures, the unit must be drained to prevent freeze damage. If mounted below the water level, bypass valves must all be CLOSED to prevent excess water from draining through the unit. Open the enclosure door. Locate the 1” NPT drain plug and remove to drain the remaining water. Water will drain through holes in the bottom of the unit. Alternatively, a connection can be made at the 1” NPT drain to run water away from the unit. Allow all the water to drain before threading the plug back into the plumbing. Be sure to clean any excess water that may have collected in the bottom of the unit.
What are the main components of the DEL AOP system?
The main components include the UV-C reactor, flow switch, variable speed check valve, smart status reset, injector manifold, power PCB board, APG2 air filter, APG2 ozone modules, ozone gas line, UV-C lamp, and ozone check valve.
How is ozone generated in the DEL AOP system?
The DEL AOP is constructed with one (AOP 25) or two (AOP 40) APG2 corona discharge ozone modules. The blue ozone light on system smart status LEDs indicates ozone modules are operating properly.
How does the injector manifold work?
Water flowing through the injector manifold generates the vacuum that draws ozone into the water. The spring-loaded valve automatically adjusts for various water flow rates to keep the DEL AOP operating over a wide range of conditions.
What does the ozone gas line do?
Gas from the ozone modules is drawn through the ozone gas line by the injector and into the water. The ozone check valve in this line prevents water from migrating back to the ozone modules when the DEL AOP is not running.
What does the ozone module air filter do?
The air entering the ozone modules passes through the air filter on each module inlet. The filter is held in place by the rubber filter cap.
What is the injector tube adapter?
This component connects the ozone gas line to the injector manifold. When servicing this component, do not tighten past 10 in-lbs torque or the component may be damaged.
What are the ultraviolet lamps?
There are two lamps in each Del AOP unit. The violet UV-C light on the system smart status LEDs indicates UV lamps are operating properly. If the UV lamp access panel is removed while the unit is running, the unit will be shut down automatically. The lamps are each housed in a quartz tube that protects the lamp.
How do you replace the ozone module?
Shut off power at the breaker. Unplug the connector from the power PCB board by unlatching the hook tab on the connector. Take off the old ozone module from the ozone generator mounting panel using an Allen Wrench. Disconnect the air filter and tubing from the old ozone module. Reconnect the air filter and tubing to the new ozone module. Mount the new ozone module to the panel. Plug the connector of the new ozone module to the mating connector on the power PCB board. Reset the ozone indicator by pressing the button on the inside door behind the Smart Status indicators.
How often should the ozone gas line be replaced?
The ozone gas line should be replaced every year or sooner, if needed. If there is evidence of water leaking past the ozone check valve toward the ozone modules, shut down the DEL AOP immediately and replace the ozone gas line.
How do you replace the ozone gas line?
Shut off power at the breaker. Shut off water to the unit. Loosen tubing clamps on both ends of the ozone gas line. Remove the tubing assembly from the air barbs of the injector tube adapter and T-fitting adapter. Orient the ozone gas line and re-connect it on both ends and clamp tight.
What precautions should you take when replacing the ozone gas line?
Trace amounts of nitric acid may be present in the ozone gas line. Wear proper safety equipment (gloves and eye protection) and avoid direct contact with any condensation in the line.
How often should the ozone air filter be replaced?
The air filter should be replaced yearly.
How do you replace the ozone air filter?
Remove the worn or dirty ozone air filter from the air barb on the ozone generator. Install the new ozone air filter on the ozone generator air barb.
How do you replace the injector tube adapter?
Remove if worn or dirty. Loosen or remove the tubing clamp and use pliers if necessary to twist and unlock the clamp. Pull the tubing from the injector tube adapter and unthread the adapter from the injector. Apply Teflon® based thread sealant and install new connector. Do not tighten over 10 in*lb.
How often should the UV lamp be replaced?
The life expectancy of the UV lamp is about 16,000 hours. The Smart Status LED for UV-C will change to yellow when it is time to replace the lamps. It is recommended to replace all UV lamps at the same time.
What precautions should you take when replacing the UV lamps?
Avoid touching the UV lamp glass with your bare hands, as oils on your hands can cause hot spots on the UV lamp and shorten its life. Use a soft clean cotton cloth or clean cotton gloves to handle the UV lamp.
How do you remove the UV lamp from the UV reactor?
Shut off power at the breaker. Locate the UV lamp access panel on the top of the DEL AOP. Remove the 4 screws with a Phillips head screwdriver, and remove the panel. After allowing adequate time for the lamps to cool, disconnect the lamp connectors from the ballast wire connector. Grasp the UV lamp wires and gently pull until the top of the UV lamp has pulled past the lamp retainer tabs. While holding the UV lamp white ceramic cap, slowly pull the UV lamp until the bottom has pulled past the lamp retainer tabs.
How do you re-install the UV lamp?
Confirm that power is off at the breaker. Do not touch the glass, as oils on your hands will damage the bulb. By holding the UV lamp white ceramic cap, slowly press the UV lamp fully past the lamp retainer tabs and into the quartz tube until it is seated on the lamp cushion in the bottom of the tube. Connect the lamp connector to the connector on the ballast. Install the UV lamp access panel. Reset the UV indicator by pressing the button on the inside door behind the Smart Status indicators.
How often should the quartz tube be cleaned?
The quartz tube(s) should be removed from the UV reactor every six (6) months and cleaned if necessary.
What should you do if the DEL AOP is installed below water level when cleaning the quartz tube?
If the DEL AOP is installed below water level, the bypass valves must all be CLOSED to prevent excess pool water from draining into the open unit when a quartz tube is removed.
How do you clean the quartz tube?
Allow adequate time for the quartz tubes to cool. Drain the water from the UV reactor by removing the drain plug and replace the plug once water has stopped exiting the UV reactor. After removing the lamps, remove the top lamp retainer screws using the hex key included in the parts bag. Place the lamp retainer screws, washers and the lamp retainer aside in a safe place. Using the hex key included in the parts bag, loosen the bottom lamp retainer screws two full rotations. Grasp the quartz tube from the top of the UV reactor and pull to remove it. Remove the sealing O-ring from the top of the quartz tube. Clean the quartz tube exterior with a mild solution of muriatic acid and water in a ratio of four parts water to one part acid (4:1). If lime or hard water calcium deposits are encountered, use a household tub and shower lime remover. After cleaning the quartz tube, wash it off and wipe it dry. Inspect the quartz tube for cracks and replace if cracks are found. Make sure the inside of the quartz tube is dry before replacing the UV lamp(s).
What precautions should be taken when cleaning with muriatic acid?
Follow the directions for use and handling of muriatic acid on the acid bottle label, being careful to protect your eyes, wear rubber gloves, and avoid breathing acid fumes.
What type of cleaners should not be used when cleaning the quartz tube?
Do not use abrasive cleaners as they can scratch the high quality quartz glass.
How do you install the quartz tube?
Holding the quartz tube so it is oriented straight up and down, insert the quartz tube into the UV reactor until it is fully seated in the bottom of the UV reactor. Place a sealing o-ring approximately 1/2in (12.5mm) from the end of the quartz tube protruding from the top of the UV reactor. Place the lamp retainer over the quartz tube. Use the hex key included in the parts bag to attach the lamp retainer to the UV reactor, using the lamp retainer screws and washers. Make sure the lamp retainer flanges are fully seated against the UV reactor. Turn the circulation pump ON and check the quartz tube seal for leaks. Turn the circulation pump OFF once you have confirmed that the quartz tube is not leaking.
What precautions should be taken when handling glass components?
Wear proper eye and skin protection for servicing glass components. If broken glass is trapped in the pool system, do not operate the pool and contact a service professional to have the glass removed.
What information should be provided when contacting technical support?
Be prepared with the following information: Name, address, model #, and date purchased.

What do you do about bubbles in the pool from the AOP unit?
It is normal for bubbles to appear from one or more return lines coming from the AOP unit. If you prefer to stop all bubbles or have a vinyl liner pool, a Mixing De-gas Vessel (MDV) can be installed to eliminate all bubbles.
Will this system work with an in-floor cleaning system?
In-floor cleaning systems create high back-pressure for all equipment on the pad. To prevent back-pressure from affecting the DEL AOP unit, it should be installed on a separate return line from the in-floor cleaning system.
What precautions should be taken when installing pool cleaners, chlorine generators, and chlorine tab/mineral erosion feeders?
Always plumb the cleaner T-fitting before the DEL AOP to prevent gas from affecting the operation of the cleaner. A salt chlorine generator should be plumbed after the AOP system to prevent the trapped accumulation of hydrogen gas. Always plumb the DEL AOP after any erosion feeder to avoid gas accumulating in the feeder. If installing as a retrofit and a tab feeder cannot be relocated, an MDV unit is recommended in between the AOP system and the tab feeder.
What precautions should be taken when installing the DEL AOP with water features or an in-floor cleaning system?
Avoid plumbing the DEL AOP into any leg with excessive back pressure such as those going to fountains or restrictive wall fittings. The DEL AOP must be on a different pool return leg than any In-Floor Cleaning system to avoid excess back pressure on the DEL AOP, and to prevent gas intrusion and high oxidizer levels in the zone valve and cleaner heads.
What is the goal for back pressure when installing the DEL AOP?
The goal is for back pressure on the DEL AOP to be minimal.
What is the optional in-place quartz tube cleaning procedure?
Ensure that the DEL AOP is isolated from the rest of the pool system with shut-off valves at the inlet and outlet. Disconnect the union from the outlet port on the right side of the unit and remove the winterizing cap inside the unit. Create an acidic cleaning solution of muriatic acid and water in a ratio of four parts water to one part acid (4:1). Pour the cleaning solution in the winterizing port to flow from bottom to top. Allow the solution to soak as needed to remove any mineral build-up from the quartz tube. When cleaning is complete, drain the unit completely and clean any acidic cleaning solution that has collected in the bottom of the unit. Run the pool system immediately for an extended period to fully rinse the internal components.
