Section 3: Operating Intelliflo; How To Meter A System; Manual Mode - Pentair IntelliComm Installation And User Manual

This section describes how to use the IntelliFlo pump control panel.
Metering the System
The first step to operating and programming IntelliFlo is to know what is being used in the
pool system. After the devices are selected you can then set valves for the appropriate
features and use the "Manual" mode to measure flow rates for the types or series of
devices that require flow. When an appropriate flow rate or rates are found for a device
or series of devices, you should note that flow rate for programming later.
Note: If the pool system uses a filter, always monitor pressure at the filter when
changing the speed (RPM) or flow (GPM) from IntelliFlo.

Manual Mode

Operating IntelliFlo in manual mode is typically used for service and testing purposes only.
To operate IntelliFlo in manual mode:
1. Ensure that the green power LED is on.
2. Press the Manual button.
3. Use the Up and Down arrow buttons to view the current power, actual speed and flow:
• Power Menu (Watts): Displays current power to the motor shaft in continuous watts
• Actual Speed (RPM): Displays RPM speed when flow and RPM control is used
• Actual Flow (GPM): Displays actual flow when using flow control
• Set Speed (RPM): Set IntelliFlo to run at a continuous speed
• Set Flow (GPM): Set IntelliFlo in flow control to allow the pump to change speed to manage the
flow rate based on system changes
