Key Features

• Inverter Technology: Utilizes iSAVER+ inverter technology for precise control over pump speed and run times, reducing energy consumption by up to 80% at low speeds.

• Energy Efficiency: Dynamically adjusts motor speed to save up to £419.62 annually for a 50m³ pool with a 1HP pump (based on UK electricity rates of £0.144 per kWh).

• Quiet Operation: Operates at below 60 dBA, significantly quieter than traditional single-speed pumps (up to 70 dBA), ensuring a peaceful poolside experience.

• User-Friendly Interface: Features a pioneering touchscreen frequency converter with real-time power consumption readings for intuitive control.

• Timer Functionality: Offers up to four customizable timers with individual speed settings for flexible scheduling of filtration and backwashing.

• Compatibility: Suitable for single-phase pumps up to 1HP (0.75kW), compatible with 95% of single-speed pool pumps for easy retrofitting or new installations.

• Durable Construction: Built with a UV-stabilized, fiberglass-filled pump body for corrosion resistance and durability, even in salt-chlorinated pools.

• Easy Maintenance: Includes a clear pump lid for quick basket inspection, simplifying routine maintenance.

• Simple Installation: Supplied with a 2.5m pump connection cable, 90cm power source cable, and 2” quick-connect unions (1.5” reducers included). Electrical installation requires a qualified professional.

Benefits

• Cost Savings: Reduces energy costs by up to 80%, with a payback period often less than 12 months.

• Enhanced Filtration: Precise flow control improves water circulation and filtration, ensuring cleaner and healthier pool water.

• Extended Equipment Lifespan: Lower speeds reduce wear, extending the life of the pump and pool components.

• Eco-Friendly: Lower energy use reduces your carbon footprint, making it an environmentally conscious choice.

• Quiet Pool Environment: Minimal noise levels create a more enjoyable swimming experience.

Installation Tips

• Professional Installation: Ensure electrical connections are handled by a certified electrician to comply with local regulations and ensure safety.

• Proper Placement: Install on a stable, level surface with adequate ventilation to prevent overheating. Avoid direct exposure to extreme weather.

• Pipe Alignment: Use the included 2” quick-connect unions (or 1.5” reducers) for a secure, leak-free connection. Align pipes to avoid stress on the pump.

• Initial Setup: Configure the touchscreen interface to set timers and speeds. Test at low speed to verify operation before full use.

• Priming the Pump: Ensure the pump is fully primed with water before operation to prevent dry running, which can damage the mechanical seal.

Maintenance Advice

• Regular Basket Cleaning: Check and clean the pump basket weekly to prevent debris buildup. The clear lid allows easy inspection.

• Inspect Seals: Check the mechanical seal periodically for wear or leaks, especially in salt-chlorinated pools, and replace if needed.

• Clean Impeller: Inspect the impeller every 6 months for blockages or wear, and clean gently to maintain performance.

• Monitor Performance: Use the touchscreen to track power consumption and ensure normal operation. Unusual readings may indicate maintenance needs.

• Winterizing: Drain the pump completely during off-season storage in colder climates to prevent freezing damage.
