Description

System Max Time

0-5 min. (Default 0 min.) - The average pump will prime in a short

 

period of time because the pump has the ability to monitor itself to

 

make sure it is primed. “System Max Time” is for systems that

 

require high flows that priming flow can provide but it is deemed

 

that more time is needed to fully relieve all the air. The builder can

 

program a pre determined amount of time, up to 5 minutes, to aid

 

in relieving the air from difficult filters or complex vertical plumbing.

 

The “System Max Time” should only be used where large air traps

 

become problems within the system. The display will inform the

 

user when this is engaged and when it is finished during the

 

priming cycle at each start up cycle.

Backwash Parameters

When the pump detects that the filter differential pressure (10 PSI

 

difference) has increased and is now at the “Clean Filter” pressure,

 

IntelliTouch displays an alert message that indicates that the filter

 

must be cleaned (backwashed) to reduce the pressure. A "Filter

 

Status" bar on the "Equipment" screen indicates the current status

 

of the filter. See page 79 for details. To backwash the filter, you

 

need to stop IntelliFlo, place IntelliTouch in “Service” mode, press

 

the Start/Stop button on IntelliFlo, then press the Backwash button

 

to start the backwash flow process. IntelliFlo will run the preset

 

cycle time and preset flow GPM). After the backwash cycle is

 

finished, the “Rinse” cycle with the preset duration time will be

 

executed. After these cycles have been completed or if the

 

Start/Stop button is pressed to stop the process, the filter status

 

will be recalculated and the zero-pressure measured when Filter

 

mode is operated again. When using cartridge filters the backwash

 

cycle must be performed when cleaning or replacing filters. This helps

 

the IntelliFlo reset its zero head pressure level. If you are charging a DE

 

system, charge the system first during a normal running cycle. After the

 

filter is charged, run the pump in backwash mode with the filter valve in

 

the filter position to reset the % clean filter status. Then run the pump in

 

filter mode.

Clean Filter Pressure

1-50 PSI (Default is 14 PSI) - The average PSI setting is between

 

10 PSI and 20 PSI for most pools and filters. The PSI changes can

 

come from anywhere in the system, for example clogged skimmers

 

or pots in pumps. Setting this parameter at a lower level will cause

 

the alert message to come up sooner and you will have to clean

 

your filter (cartridge) or backwash your filter (sand or DE) sooner.

Backwash Flow

15-130 PSI (Default 60 PSI)

Backwash Time

1-60 minutes (Default 5 minutes)

Rinse Time

1-60 minutes (Default 1 minute)
