Filtering -Pool Size/Gallons: 0 - 255 (Kgals) - Turnovers per day: (1 - 8)
Filtering Manual Filter GPM: (15 - 130) Default 30 GPM: Manual Filter sets the
flow at which the pump will run if it is turned on manually. The IntelliFlo pump
will only run in the 'Filter' mode during the programmed times. For example,
if the pump is programmed (start/stop times) for the pool circuit to run from
8:00 AM to 4:00 PM everyday. This program or programs are used by IntelliFlo
to calculate at what speed it must run given those 'ON' times to achieve the
turnover(s) for that sized pool for the basic filter mode.
Priming - Max Prime Flow GPM: (30 - 130) Default 55 GPM: Every time the pump
starts this parameter will negotiate the maximum flow of the pump. If the flow
is too high, equipment damage can occur. If the flow is to low the pump will not
prime. This "flow" is system dependent and may require adjustment. The pump
will never flow more than this parameter is set to, however, it is common for the
pump to ramp up and down quickly while priming. Always try to keep this flow as
low as possible for cost savings and safety.
Max Prime Time: (1 - 15 minutes) Default 15 min.: Use this parameter to set the
time that you want IntelliFlo try and prime before it reports an error. Remember
that the IntelliFlo will attain prime every time it starts and goes through this
cycle. The IntelliFlo mechanical seal can withstand about 15 minutes before
severe damage occurs. The lower the time the quicker you will get a priming
error if the system is difficult to prime. A well plumbed pool without having the
strainer removed should prime in less than 30 seconds. If the strainer has been
removed for cleaning and a substantial amount of air is in the system it should
prime in about 60 to 90 seconds on the average, however, all systems will be
different.
