3.6 Conducting Pressure Test
WARNING
When pressure testing a system with water, air
is often trapped in the system during the filling
process. This air will compress when the system is
pressurized. Should the system fail, this trapped air
can propel debris at a high speed and cause injury.
Every effort to remove trapped air must be taken,
including opening the bleed valve on the filter and
loosening the pump filter basket lid while filling the
pump.
WARNING
Trapped air in the system can cause the filter
lid to be blown off, which can result in death,
serious injury, or property damage. Be sure all
air is properly purged out of the system before
operating. DO NOT USE COMPRESSED AIR TO
PRESSURE TEST OR CHECK FOR LEAKS.
WARNING
Do not pressure test above 35 PSI. Pressure
testing must be done by a trained pool
professional. Circulation equipment that is not
tested properly might fail, which could result in
severe injury or property damage.
WARNING
When pressure testing the system with water, it is
very important to make sure that the pump filter
basket lid is completely secure.
1. Fill the system with water, using care to eliminate
trapped air.
2. Pressurize the system with water to no more than
35 PSI
.
3. Close the valve to trap pressurized water in the
system.
4. Observe the system for leaks and/or pressure
decay.
5. If there are lid leaks, repeat Steps 1-3. For

6. After successfully completing the test, discard the
blue pressure test o-ring.
3.7 SVRS Testing
The SVRS unit must be tested for proper operation after
installation and monthly, thereafter.
1. Using a ball valve, butterfly valve or sliding gate
valve installed within 2 feet (0.6m) upstream from
the pump, simulate entrapment by restricting water
flow. A test mat can also be used to cover the
suction outlet to simulate an entrapment event.
2. After an entrapment is detected, the pump will
shut down, automatically releasing the vacuum
created by the pump.
3. After the pump shuts down, reopen/remove
restriction to pump suction line. The pump will
attempt to restart after a shutdown period of
approximately four (4) minutes.
4. Repeat three (3) times to verify proper adjustment
and operation.
