Operating The Pump While Running; Quick Clean - Pentair Sta-rite EnviroMAX 1500 Installation, Operation And Service Manual

Operating the Pump White Running
If power is connected to the pump motor, pressing any of the following
buttons referred to in this section could result in the motor starting. Failure
to recognize this could result in personal injury or damage to equipment.
Pressing the Display button will cycle through the current parameters.
• Speed — current run speed
• Time — current time of day
• Duration — amount of time remaining at the current run speed
• Watts — amount of watts currently being consumed
Pressing any of the Speed Buttons ("1", "2", "3", "Quick Clean") while the pump is running will act as
temporary override. It will run the speed and duration that is programmed for that button. Once completed
it will default back to the appropriate point in the programmed schedule.
Note: If you adjust the speeds of the schedule while the pump is running, it will run the adjusted speed
for the rest of the current duration, but will not save the adjustments. Exception: Speed and Duration
adjustments to QUICK CLEAN will always be immediately saved.

Quick Clean

If running Quick Clean, pressing the "+" or "-" arrows will change the speed accordingly. Pressing the
Quick Clean button again within 10 seconds of pressing the "+" or "-" arrows will allow you to adjust the
duration of Quick Clean via the "+" and "-" arrows. These changes will be saved immediately and are the
new defaults for Quick clean. Pressing the Quick Clean button again will cycle through the two Quick Clean
settings. The pump will exit out of editing mode if no additional buttons are pressed within 10 seconds.
If Quick Clean is running and you wish to stop the Quick Clean prior to the duration being completed you
can press and hold the Quick Clean button for 3 seconds and the pump will return to the appropriate point
in the programmed schedule.
Priming
CAUTION
This pump is shipped with Priming mode ENABLED. Unless the Priming
settings are changed in the menu, be aware that the pump will speed up to
the priming speed when the pump is powered on for the first time, and the
start/stop button is pressed.
Before turning the pump ON, be sure the following conditions are met:
1. Open filter air relief valve.
2. Open valves.
3. Pool return is completely open and clear of any blockages.
4. Water in the pump basket.
5. Stand clear of the filter or other pressurized vessels.
DO NOT run the pump dry. If the pump is run dry, the mechanical seal will be
CAUTION
damaged and the pump will start leaking. If this occurs, the damaged seal
must be replaced. ALWAYS maintain proper water level in your pool (half way
up skimmer opening). If the water level falls below the skimmer opening,
the pump will draw air through the skimmer, losing the prime and causing
the pump to run dry, resulting in a damaged seal. Continued operation in this
manner could cause a loss of pressure, resulting in damage to the pump case,
impeller and seal and may cause property and personal injury.
