FILTRATION PROCESS 

 
The selector valve has a handle of 6 positions that selects any of the necessary operations to obtain the maximum efficiency 
from the filter. 
 
IMPORTANT: Always switch off the pump, when changing the position of the selector valve. 
 

FILTRATION 

 
With  the  pump  switched  off,  place  the  handle  of  the  selector  valve  in  the  FILTERING 
position.  
 
Switch on the pump. 
When  starting  up  for  the  first  time,  read  the  pressure  of  the  pressure  gauge.  It  is 
recommended to take note of this pressure, as later it will be used to know whether the filter 
is  dirty  and  if  “WASHING”  is  required.    “WASHING”  should  be  done  when  the  pressure 
gauge indicates an increase of 0.5 kg/cm

Bear  in  mind  that  the  valves  at  the  bottom  of  the  pool  and  the  skimmers  will  be  adjusted 
according  to  the  amount  of  floating  particles  on  the  surface  of  the  water.  The  main  drain 
and skimmer valves will be regulated according to the quantity of floating material found on 
the surface of the water. Bear in mind that with the main drain valve fully open there will be 
little  suction  from  the  skimmers.  If  the  surface  sweep  of  the  skimmers  is  to  be  stronger, 
reduce the flow from the main drain. 
 

Example:

 

 with respect to the initial pressure of the filter. it 

is advisable to observe the pressure gauge from time to time as this indicates the degree of 
saturation of the filter 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
                                                         
 

0,8 kg/cm² - 11,4 PSI: 

Initial pressure of

           1,3 kg/cm² - 18,5 PSI: 

The pressure is 0.5 kg/cm

BACKWASH 

 more  

the filter at the start of a filtering cycle.              than the initial pressure, indicating that WASHING is required. 
 

 
Each load of sand forms thousands of  channels which pick  up all the  material contained 
and caught  up in the filtering process, the number of free channels allowing  the water to 
pass  is  continually  decreasing.  This  is  why  the  pressure  rises  progressively  until  it  an 
increase  of  0.5  kg/cm

2

Turn the selector valve to  the “BACKWASH” position  and with  the  main drain and return 
valves  open,  switch  on  the  pump  and  run  it  for  2  minutes.  When  this  operation  is 
completed, the dirt blocking the filter will have been removed.

 

 

.  At  this  pressure  the  filtering  sand  is  unable  to  collect  any  more 

impurities and must be cleaned as follows: 

 

Attention:  

Too much time in this operation could cause damage to the filter collector unit.
