Operation

The quartz sand used in the filter system's tank provides long-lasting filtration of dirt particles and floating debris. Dirty water is drawn from the pool via the suction pipe through the filter pump and then fed directly from above through the 7-way valve into the filter tank. As the water flows through the quartz sand in the filter tank, dirt particles are deposited in the sand and thus filtered out of the pool water. The purified water flows through the 7-way valve back into the pool via the return pipe.
For the operation of the filter system, you need a skimmer (surface skimmer). Either an integrated skimmer (built into the pool wall) or a suspended skimmer (attachment to the poolwall).

Filter sand requirements

• Only quartz sand can be used with this filter system. The quartz sand must comply with the DIN 12904 quality standard.

Positioning

The installation area you set between the skimmer and the inlet nozzle so, that there is an adequate safety margin to the pelvic wall. We recommend putting the filter system in addition on base plates (for example: washed concrete slabs etc.). These have to be installed with the spirit level. Under no circumstances you may put your filter system in a trough or directly into the grass (flood danger or risk of overheating of the filter pump).

If you have sunk your pool partially or completely, so it makes sense to place the filter pump in a filter slot, which should connect directly to the pelvis. Is your filter pump housed in a filter slot, so it has to be insured, that the filter slot can't be slooded. For this purpose you should bring in a roller-burnishing (crushed rock) in the range of the filter slot, so that the surrounding- and rainwater can seep away. It would be ideal if there is a direct connection to the drain in the sump of the filter shaft (or sludge pump, with automatic floating switch). It is important to ensure that the filter slot should never be airtight, because this may cause damage, due to condensation water, on the filter pump. The size of the filter shaft should be selected so that work can be performed on the filter system.

Installation

Assembly of the filter system (Illustration 1)
Assemble the filter system at the location where the pump finally will be (the subsequent transport there would be too burdensome!). The filter pump consists of the following parts:

1. Pump
2. Valve
3. Seal (O-Ring)
4. Clamping ring
5. Vessel
6. Central pipe
7. Filter screen
8. Drain plug
9. Centralizer (cover for standpipe)
10. Base plate
11. Pressure hose

Filter vessel

1. Insert stand pipe including filter screen into boiler. (Illustration 2)
   
2. Place the stand pipe with the filter screen on the floor of the boiler, make sure that the stand pipe is located in the middle of the boiler and that the drain plug is screwed in.
3. Now put the centralizer on the tank opening, while centering the standpipe. (Illustration 4)
   
4. Fill in the filter quarz sand up to a high of about ¾ of the bowlhight. (Illustration 4)
5. Then mount the top of the boiler or the valve head and the boiler seal on the tank top of the filter vessel. Before you do this, it is neccassary to clean again and wash off any sand or accumulated debris. The connection of the top of the boiler or the head valve with the filter vessel is carried out by the clamping ring. The clamping ring is screwed with the clamping ring screw and the collet nut. (Illustration 5 & 6)
   
6. Finally, mount the pump fittings on the valve head. Seal the pump fittings sufficiently by using teflon tape.
7. The pressure gauge (if included) is screwed to the side of the 7-way valve and sealed. The existing vent plug should be removed first. (Illustration 9)
   

Hose connections

See Illustration 7

1. Skimmer pipe: Connection from the skimmer connection to the front connection on the filter pump.
2. Pressure pipe: Connection from the top connection of the filter pump to the connection labelled "RINSE" / "FILTER" on the 7-way valve.
3. Return pipe: Connection from the connection on the 7-way valve labelled "RECIRCULATE" to the connection on the inlet nozzle (pool). Fix all the connections with hose clamps.
4. Backflush pipe: Connection "FILTER" / "WASTE" (emptying) into the channel. The connections are to be made with special swimming pool hoses and hose clamps!

Installation instructions

Once the filter system has been properly assembled, the sand chamber filled with sand and the hoses connected as described above, you may begin with filtration. However, we recommend that you clean and prepare the new sand that is in the sand chamber first. Cleaning the sand prior to filtering your pool will remove most of the dust and tiny sand particles that may exist in the sand. If you move straight to filtering, these particles will end up in your pool. To clean the sand, please follow the instructions below:

Do not plug the system in until advised to do so below.

• Make certain the pump is not plugged in to a power supply.
• Ensure that the valve lever is in the "closed" position.
• Before operating the filter system, it is important to ensure that the filter system is positioned outside the pool and is lower than the pool's water level. The hose connections must also be correctly connected and fastened.
• If you haven't done so already, fill your pool with water. Ensure that the water level is at least 2,5 – 5 cm above the top of the hose intake (Skimmer) and return ports in the pool.
• Release the shut off valve at the intake port (Skimmer) in the pool. If you plugged the intake port (Skimmer), remove the plug to allow the water to flow into the intake hose.
• With the filter-pump system installed in a location level lower than your pool's water level – water will automatically flow into the pump-filter system.
• The filter system is now vented. If applicable, ensure that the filter pump's pre-filter guard is slightly open until the water runs from the pre-filter container (transparent lid with screw fitting on the upper surface of the filter pump).
• Allow the filter tank to fill with water.
• Check the filter system and the connection hoses for leaks and resolve, if necessary. Leakage points may possibly arise due to manufacturing tolerances, which need to be resolved by wrapping teflon tape around the connections before the connection hose is attached.
• Follow the backwash process described below.

Backwash Process

• S Disconnect the Motor/Pump from the Power Source.
• Attach backwash hose (not included) to backwash port.
• Place the Multi-Port Valve in the "Backwash" position.
• Reconnect to power source.
• Run filter in BACKWASH mode until discharge water is clear.
• Disconnect the Motor/Pump from the Power Source.
• Place the Multi-Port Valve in the "RINSE" position.
• Reconnect to power source.
• Allow filter to run for 60 seconds to remove any remaining residue from pump and valve.
• Disconnect the Motor/Pump from the Power Source.
• Place the Multi-Port Valve in the "Filtration" position.
• Reconnect to power source.
• Your filtration system is RUNNING and ready for further operation.

Filter operations

Filtering time

The swimming pool's water should be circulated and filtered at least 3 to 5 times in a 24 hour period, depending on the load and the size of the filter system. The time required is based on the performance of the filter system and the size of the swimming pool. However, we recommend a minimum running time of 12 hours per day.

Power source Instructions

The filter system you have purchased is equipped with a connection cable, which may only be connected to a circuit with a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) with a rated residual current of no more than 30mA.

Operation with a pool vacuum cleaner

(Illustration 8)

• The pool vacuum cleaner's hose can be connected directly to the filter system's suction pipe. In doing so, the pool vacuum cleaner's hose must be completely filled with water.
• The use of a skimmer with a strainer basket is recommended for filter systems without pre-filters.
• Please observe the pool vacuum cleaner's operating instructions. To prevent the filter from running dry and thus overheating, no air should be allowed to enter the filter system.
• Please select the "FILTERN" position on the valve head.
• Alternatively, you can also select the "ENTLEEREN (empty)" position, for example if algae forms in the pool. Dirty pool water will not then run back into the pool, but will be directly channelled away via the waste pipe. When selecting this setting, it is necessary to re-fill your pool to the correct level after cleaning, if necessary.

Problem treatment

Important Note

To winterize the system

• Unplug the pump from the power source.
• Close the shut off valves or block the flow of water at the pool inlet and return ports.
• Disconnect the filtration system from the pool, drain the tank and hoses.
• Place the handle on the central valve in position 'Winterize' to relieve the tension on the spring and internal valve components.

Changing the filter sand

The filter sand should be changed every 2-3 years, depending on how much the filter system is operated.

Care instructions

Visible contaminants are removed through the filtration system. This is not true for algae, bacteria and other microorganisms, which are also a constant threat to clear, clean and healthy pool water. For their prevention or removal, special water treatment is available, properly and permanently dosed, guarantee for swimmers any kind of harassment and ensure proper hygienic bath water.

Cleaning

Use conventional cleaning products. Do not use solvent-based or abrasive cleaning agents/tools, i.e. no hard sponges, brushes etc..

Storage

The product must be thoroughly dried after cleaning. When the pool cleaner is not being used, store it in a well ventilated place out of direct sunlight. Avoid direct sunlight. Make sure the room temperature is above 5°C in winter.

Do not kink the cable and do not lay it over sharp edges. Do not use an extension cable, multiple socket adapters or other adapters.

Filtration systems must not be operated dry (i.e. without any water)! The water has a cooling effect - if used without water, there is no warranty protection! Never place the pump or filter into the pool. The filter pump must be switched off before every switching operation using the 7-way valve! The filtration system must not be used if there are people in the water! Install the filtration system at a suitably safe distance from the pool to prevent children using the system as a means of entering the pool. Do not submerge the filtration system, mains cable or plug in water or other liquids. The filter pump of the filtration system is to be protected from foreign bodies and splashes of water. It is still worthwhile to install it in such a way that it is also protected from the weather. Never carry out any work on the filtration system while it is still connected to the mains. Hazards posed by the suction of the pump can lead to serious injury and death if adequate precautions are not taken. Do not block the suction openings on the pump or in the pool since this may lead to serious injury or even death.
