Optimize Your Hot Tub Maintenance with the Besgo 5-Way Backwash Valve for Lacron/Vision Filters

As a retailer of hot tub spare parts, I’m excited to present the BES050/204 Besgo 5-Way Backwash Valve. This innovative product is designed to streamline your hot tub maintenance, especially for those using Lacron or Vision filters.

Product Overview

The BES050/204 is a high-performance backwash valve featuring 50mm solvent connections at 204mm centres. It’s specifically engineered to complement Lacron and Vision filters, ensuring perfect compatibility with your existing hot tub system.

Swiss Precision Engineering

Manufactured in Switzerland since 1980, the Besgo 5-way valve represents the pinnacle of pneumatic valve technology. This sophisticated device automates your sand filter backwashes with unparalleled efficiency, simplicity, and safety.

Key Features

1. Superior Backwash Efficiency
2. Flexible Installation Options
3. Automatic Safety Mechanism
4. Continuous Filtration
5. Exceptional Durability
6. Broad Compatibility

Unmatched Efficiency

The Besgo 5-way valve outperforms traditional 6-way valves with its higher backwash speed. This increased velocity ensures superior backwash results, keeping your hot tub water crystal clear while minimizing maintenance time.

Versatile Installation

Whether you prefer direct attachment to your Lacron or Vision filter or wall-mounting, the Besgo valve accommodates your needs. Its 90° rotating connections offer flexible installation options to suit your specific setup.

Built-in Safety Features

In the event of a power failure, the Besgo valve automatically returns to filtration mode. This fail-safe feature prevents accidental pool draining, providing peace of mind for hot tub owners.

Uninterrupted Filtration

Unlike conventional valves, the Besgo 5-way valve allows your filtration pump to operate continuously during the switchover process. This seamless operation ensures constant water circulation and filtration, maintaining optimal water quality.

Engineered for Longevity

The Besgo 5-way valve is a testament to quality engineering. TÜV Rheinland certified, this valve offers outstanding reliability and durability, making it a wise long-term investment for your hot tub system.

Wide-Ranging Compatibility

While this model is specifically designed for Lacron and Vision filters, the Besgo valve family is adapted to work with all AFM® and sand filters. Options range from DN40 (50mm) to DN125 (140mm), ensuring a perfect fit for various hot tub systems.

Technical Specifications

Here’s a detailed breakdown of the BES050/204 specifications:

Feature	Specification
Model	BES050/204
Connection Size	50mm solvent connections
Centre Distance	204mm
Compatible Filters	Lacron/Vision filter
Control Pressure	3.5 to 6 bars
Pressure Source	Pressurized water or compressed air
Electrical Connection	230V/50Hz
Body Material	PVC-U
Internal Components	Stainless Steel V4A / 316
Seals	Viton® / PTFE (ozone resistant)

Easy Operation

The Besgo 5-way valve operates automatically, powered by either water or air pressure. A simple connection to your water network or a small air compressor provides the necessary 3.5 bars of pressure for operation.

Programming and activating the solenoid valve is straightforward, requiring only a standard 230V electric controller or timer. When the solenoid valve receives an electrical current, it opens, compressing the internal spring and initiating the backwash process. You have full control over the duration of the backwash to suit your specific needs.

Optimized Flow Design

The Besgo valve’s innovative design results in minimal pressure loss, allowing for high backwash speeds. This optimized flow translates to superior cleaning results compared to traditional 6-way valves or butterfly valves of similar size.

Flexible Installation

The BES050/204 offers remarkable installation flexibility. If your pipework isn’t parallel to the unit, you can rotate the connection unions C and D by 90 degrees. Fine adjustments of +/-4° are also possible, ensuring a tension-free installation that fits perfectly with your existing Lacron or Vision filter setup.

For ease of maintenance and potential future upgrades, I recommend installing the Besgo valve with detachable connections such as screw connections or flanges.

Material Quality

The Besgo valve is constructed with durability in mind. The body is made of PVC-U, known for its strength and resistance to chemicals. Internal components are crafted from high-grade stainless steel V4A / 316, offering excellent corrosion resistance. The Viton® / PTFE seals are ozone resistant, ensuring longevity even in challenging conditions.

Upgrade your hot tub maintenance routine with the BES050/204 Besgo 5-Way Backwash Valve. Experience the difference that Swiss precision and innovative design can make in keeping your Lacron or Vision filter-equipped hot tub in prime condition, while minimizing your maintenance time and effort
