5.6.2.3 Protection Pressure
Set the pressure at which the pump protection will stop the pump to avoid
damage and activate an alert.
As long as the pressure in valve housing is higher than Protection Pressure, the
valve will not be allowed to rotate.
Setting the pressure limit:
Stop the pump, and let indicated pressure stabilise.

Note the Pump OFF pressure reading on the PoolCop:

If the pump is higher than the pool, this should be 0 bar;
o
If the pump is lower than the pool, there should be a head of pressure.
o
Round this figure up and add a margin of 0.20bar.

Set this pressure as the Prot. Pressure.

Example
Pump OFF pressure =0.15 bar
Round UP =0.20 bar
Add 0.20 bar =0.40 bar
If the alert "WARN: VALVE ROTATION" displays when the valve should rotate AND the water temperature indication is
normal, increase this setting incrementally and progressively.
5.6.2.4 Activate Pump Protection
PoolCop protects the pump, by switching OFF the pump and integrated water
treatments in the event pressure measured is below the Prot. Pressure for 8
minutes. In the case where pumps have their own protection systems, this
protection can be inhibited to prevent protection conflicts.
Switching Prot. Pump OFF disables the pump protection in the event that very low
pressure is measured. Alerts are still active, and in the event of the Alert activation
other internal functions (pH Control, ORP Control, Ionisation, AutoChlor) will stop.
Switching pump protection to OFF should only be done where the pump has its own protection system.
With Prot. Pump OFF, only integrated water treatment functions are stopped when this protection is

5.6.2.7 Clean Speed (if variable speed pump configured)
Select the speed linked to filter cleaning cycles.
(Speed numbers is linked to the pump type)
With variable speed pumps a speed (not 0) must be linked to filtration and cleaning; if one of these speeds is
