Operating Your Suction Pool Cleaner - Davey SILENSOR PRO SP200BTP Installation And Operating Instructions Manual

Operating your Suction Pool Cleaner

Before installing or purchasing a pool cleaner for use with your SilensorPro
pool pump, it is important to know the minimum flow rates required for it to
operate effectively:
To operate a suction pool cleaner with your SilensorPro VSD pump
1. Activate the High Flow setting (10) and allow the pump to fully prime by
running for around 2 minutes. You will know the pump is primed when you
can see a strong flow of water through the clear leaf basket lid.
2. When all air is expelled from the leaf basket, connect the pool cleaner
hose firmly into the skimmer plate or dedicated wall suction.
3. Select the speed setting that enables best performance from your suction
pool cleaner. Speed 3 to 7 should be ample for most cleaners, however if
the cleaner requires better performance, select speeds 7 to 10.
4. The cleaner should only be connected for as long as is required to clean
the surface of your pool. When cleaning is complete, disconnect the
cleaner and remove the skimmer plate from the skimmer box.
5. Reactivate the most efficient speed setting for daily filtration.
Speeds 1 to 4 is recommended.
NOTE: To get optimum energy efficiency from your
SilensorPro DO NOT keep the suction pool cleaner
connected when cleaning is not required.
