Controller Overview

The SuperMax VS Variable Speed Pump uses a premium
efficiency variable speed motor that provides tremendous
program flexibility in terms of motor speed and duration
settings. The pump is intended to run at the lowest
speeds needed to maintain a sanitary environment,
which in turn minimizes energy consumption. Pool size,
the presence of additional water features, chemicals
used to maintain sanitary conditions, and local
environmental factors will impact optimal programming
necessary to maximize energy conservation.
This pump is for use with 115/208-230 Vrms nominal,
and in pool pump applications ONLY. Connection
to the wrong voltage, or use in other application may cause damage to
equipment or personal injury.
The integrated electronics interface controls the speed
settings as well as the run durations. The pump can
operate at speeds ranging between 300 and 3450 RPM
and will operate within the voltage range of 99-253
Vrms at either 50 or 60Hz input frequency. Program
customization may require some trial-and-error to
determine the most satisfactory settings as dictated by
the conditions. In most cases, setting the pump at the
lowest speed for the longest duration is the best strategy
to minimize energy consumption. However, conditions
may require running the pump at a higher speed for some
duration of time each day to maintain proper filtration to
achieve satisfactory sanitation.
Note: Optimize the pump to suit individual pool conditions.
Specific conditions including pool size, other devices,
features and environmental factors can all impact the
optimal settings.
