NOTE: The heat pump will not run when the Remote position is selected and there is no remote control system attached.

Defrost Switch: Prevents heat pump operation if ambient air temperature falls below a predetermined safe minimum (approximately 42-48° F, based on humidity). The compressor will shut OFF but the fan will continue to run.

Delay Timer: Prevents compressor from short cycling, which could damage or destroy the hermetic motor/compressor. Upon water temperature control satisfaction, or other circuit interruptions, this solid state device will prevent compressor restart for approximately 5 minutes.

Refrigerant Low Pressure Control: Stops the compressor and fan if refrigerant suction (low side) pressure falls too low as a result of a malfunction or loss of charge.

Indicator Lamps: There are 3 indicator lamps located on the unit control panel:

Spa and Pool

thermostats

Control panel

Indicator lamps

When all 3 lamps are lit, operation is normal.

Power (red lamp): When lit, indicates power is applied to the unit.

NOTE: The heat pump will not run when the Remote position is selected and there is no remote control system attached.

Heat Demand (green lamp): When lit, indicates the actual water temperature is below the target water temperature.

Water Pressure (orange lamp): When lit, indicates normal water flow.

V.System Start-Up

1.Verify that the Power lamp is ON, the pool pump is running and water is circulating properly.

2.Verify that the control panel Spa-Remote-Poolswitch is in the Remote (OFF) position; see the figure below.

3.Turn the selector switch to Pool to turn the unit ON and raise the thermostat setting above the current water temperature. At this time all three lamps should illuminate and the fan should start to run.

The 6100 also features built-in safety measures, including a high-limit switch and a pressure switch to prevent overheating and ensure safe operation.

In contrast, the Raypak 5100 offers a slightly lower BTU output, making it suitable for smaller residential pools or spas. Nevertheless, this model does not compromise on efficiency or performance. Like the 6100, the 5100 utilizes a copper and brass heat exchanger, which maximizes heat transfer while ensuring durability. The digital controls on the 5100 also provide ease of use, featuring intuitive settings that allow users to fine-tune their heating preferences.

Both models utilize Raypak's exclusive polymer headers, which provide superior resistance to corrosion and longevity compared to traditional materials. These innovative designs prevent scale buildup and ensure efficient operation over time. Additionally, Raypak's heaters are designed for versatility, capable of running on both natural gas and propane, making them suitable for various settings and configurations.

Another key characteristic of the Raypak 6100 and 5100 is their commitment to energy efficiency. Both heaters are engineered to meet or exceed energy efficiency standards, reducing operational costs while minimizing their environmental footprint. With a streamlined design, installation is straightforward, and routine maintenance can be carried out with minimal effort.

Ultimately, the Raypak 6100 and 5100 models present excellent choices for anyone seeking reliable and efficient heating solutions for their pools or spas. With advanced technologies, durable construction, and an emphasis on user control and safety, these heaters are designed to meet the needs of modern pool and spa owners, ensuring comfort and enjoyment with every use.
