4. Настройка и установка

Proper installation is crucial for the filter's performance and longevity. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Размещение фильтра: Place the filter on a firm, level surface, preferably concrete, as close to the pool as possible. Ensure adequate space for maintenance and service.
2. Adding Filter Media (Sand):
   • Удалите верхний clamp band and lid from the filter tank.
   • Cover the standpipe opening with a plastic cap or tape to prevent sand from entering.
   • Fill the tank with water to a level just above the laterals. This cushions the laterals when adding sand.
   • Carefully add the correct grade and amount of filter sand (typically 0.4-0.8mm silica sand). Refer to the specifications for the required sand quantity.
   • Once sand is added, remove the cap/tape from the standpipe.
3. Connecting the Multi-Port Valve (Sold Separately):
   • Убедитесь, что уплотнительное кольцо правильно установлено на фланце клапана.
   • Аккуратно установите многоходовой клапан на фильтрующий бак, совместив стояк с отверстием клапана.
   • Secure the valve to the tank using the clamp band. Tighten the clamp band evenly.
4. Сантехнические соединения:
   • Connect the pool pump discharge to the "PUMP" port on the multi-port valve.
   • Connect the return line to the pool to the "RETURN" port on the multi-port valve.
   • Connect a waste line to the "WASTE" port.
   • Ensure all connections are sealed with appropriate thread sealant or PVC cement.
5. Первоначальный запуск:
   • Ensure the multi-port valve is set to "BACKWASH".
   • Open all suction and return valves.
   • Prime the pump and start it.
   • Backwash for 2-3 minutes or until the water in the sight glass (if present on valve) runs clear.
   • Turn off the pump. Set the valve to "RINSE".
   • Start the pump and rinse for 30-60 seconds.
   • Turn off the pump. Set the valve to "FILTER".
   • Start the pump. The filter is now in normal operation.

5. Инструкция по эксплуатации

The operation of your sand filter is controlled by the multi-port valve (sold separately). Always turn off the pump before changing the valve position.

Common valve positions include:

• ФИЛЬТР: Normal filtering operation. Water flows through the sand bed, trapping debris, and returns to the pool.
• ОБРАТНАЯ ПРОМЫВКА: Cleans the filter sand. Water flows in reverse through the sand bed, dislodging trapped debris, and exits through the waste line.
• СМЫВАТЬ: Used after backwashing to settle the sand bed and flush any remaining dirty water to waste before returning to filter mode.
• Сточные воды/слив: Bypasses the filter, sending water directly from the pump to the waste line. Useful for vacuuming heavy debris directly to waste or lowering pool water level.
• РЕЦИРКУЛЯЦИЯ: Bypasses the filter, circulating water directly back to the pool. Useful for chemical mixing without filtering.
• ЗАКРЫТО: Shuts off all flow to the filter. Use only when the pump is off and for servicing.

Monitor the pressure gauge (if installed on your multi-port valve). When the pressure rises 8-10 PSI (0.5-0.7 bar) above the clean filter pressure, it's time to backwash.
