Your filter uses special filter sand to remove dirt particles from pool water Filter sand is loaded into the filter tank and functions as the dirt removing media. The pool water, which contains suspended dirt particles, is pumped through your piping system and is automatically directed by the filter control valve to the top of the filter tank. As the pool water is pumped through the filter sand, dirt particles are trapped by the sand bed, and filtered out. The cleaned pool water flows from the bottom of the filter tank, up through the stand pipe, back to the valve on top of the filter, where the clean water is returned to the pool through the piping or hoses. After a period of time, the accumulated dirt in the filter causes a resistance to flow, and the flow diminishes. This means it is time to clean (backwash)your filter. With the control valve in the backwash position, the water flow is automatically reversed through the filter so that it is directed to the bottom of the tank, up through the sand, flushing the previously trapped dirt and debris out the waste line. Once the filter is back washed (cleaned) of dirt the control valve is manually resequenced to Rinse, and then Filter, to resume normal filtering INSTALLING THE FILTER Read and understand all instructions before attempting to install,operate or maintain your pump and sand filter system. 1. Carefully remove all individual components from carton and inspect for any visible damage. If cartons or parts are damaged, contact seller or freight company. -7- WARNING Blockage of suction fittings can cause serious or fatal injury due to drowning. To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use. WARNING Never work on the pump while it is running or power is still connected. High voltage can cause serious or fatal injury. A suitable ground fault interrupter (GFCI) should always be installed at the power supply source of this unit. Be sure to ground the motor before connecting to electrical AC power supply. Failure to ground the motor can cause serious or fatal electrical shock hazards. DO NOT ground to a gas supply pipe line. 2. The filter system should be installed below pool water level, on a level concrete slab, very firm ground, or equivalent, as recommended by your pool dealer. When the filter is filled with sand and water, it can weigh several hundred pounds. Position the filter so that the piping connections, control valve and winter drain are accessible for operation,service and winterizing. 3. Assemble the drain to the lower outlet at the bottom of the filter tank.Make sure that the o-rings are correctly assembled to prevent water leakage. See figure below. -8- 4. Assemble the filter tank to the system base. 5. Assemble the pump to the system base with mounting screw kit. 6. Place the standpipe and under drain assembly in the center of the tank. Cap standpipe with sand shield to prevent sand from entering it. Fill the tank with about half full water.(Be sure the winter drain cap is securely in place). Carefully pour in correct amount and grade of filter sand (Be sure standpipe remains centered in opening). IMPORTANT You must use only No. 20 standard silica sand having a uniformity coefficient of 1.75 or less. No. 20 silica sand has a particle size of . 018-.022 inches (.45 to .55 mm). Note: Sand not included. 7. Remove sand shield from standpipe. Wash away all sand around the opening at the top of the tank. Be sure top of filter is free of any sand or debris and valve o-ring is in place on valve body. Insert Filter Control Valve into the tank neck, taking care that the standpipe slips into the hole in the bottom of the valve. 8. Position the valve so that the port locations are in the desired final position. Valve ports are marked with the location of where they should be connected i.e. pump port must go to pump discharge, waste port must go to the waste line and return port must go to the pool return. 9.Wipe filter flange clean. Place the flange clamp around tank and valve flange and assemble the screws and nuts with the hex key. Tighten clamp screws firmly and visually check the valve tank and clamp assembly to insure that the joint is correctly assembled. WARNING High Pressure: Improper tank valve assembly could cause the valve to separate and cause serious injury and/or major property damage. -9- 10. Wrap some Teflon pipe manufactured for plastic pipe on the 14"NPT male end of gauge. Carefully screw pressure gauge, into 1/4"NPT tapped hole in valve body. Do not over tighten. 11. Screw the hose adaptors into control valve port marked PUMP and pump discharge port. Wrap five turns of Teflon pipe on each hose adaptor. Connect the hose adaptors with 1.5" hose and use hose clamp to fix them. 12. Make return to pool pipe connection to control valve opening marked RETURN and complete other necessary plumbing connections, waste lines, suction lines to pump, etc. 13. To prevent water leakage, be sure winter drain cap is securely in place and all pipe connections are tight. CAUTION KEEP SAFETY LABELS IN GOOD CONDITION AND REPLACE IF MISSING OR DAMAGED. FILTER CONTROL VALVE FUNCTIONS FILTER: From pump, through valve, downward through filter sand bed, up through center pipe to valve return port, and back to the pool for normal filter action and vacuuming pool through filter. BACKWASH: From pump, through valve, down through center pipe, up through filter sand to valve, and out waste port. This position is used for cleaning filter by reversing flow. RINSE: From pump, through valve, downward through filter sand, up through center pipe to valve and out waste port. This position is used for start up cleaning and resettling filter bed after back washing. WASTE: From pump, through valve, bypasses filter and goes to waste port.This position is for vacuuming directly to waste, lowering pool level, or draining pool. CLOSE: NO FLOW IN THIS POSITION - DO NOT USE THIS SETTING WHILE PUMP IS OPERATING. WINTER: Valve position for a winterized filter. - 10 - INITIAL START-UP 1. (On a new pool, clean the pool before filling the pool with water. Excessive dirt and large particles can cause damage to the pump and filter. 2. Ensure that all pool suction and WASTE lines are open so that water is free to flow from the pool to WASTE line. Set control valve to BACKWASH position. 3.Check valve clamp for tightness. 4. Check pump strainer pot to be sure it is full of water (Ensure the hose is full of water if there is no strainer basket). Tigh en the pump lid.Prime and start the pump, allowing the filter tank to fill with water. CAUTION DONOT DRY RUN THE SAND FILTER. 5. Once the water flow is steady out the WASTE line, run the pump for at least 2 minutes or until backwash water is clean. This initial Back washing of the filter is recommended to remove any impurities of fine sand particles in the silica sand media. 6. Turn the pump off and set valve to "RINSE" position. Ensure that all pool suction and WASTE lines are open so that the water is free to flow from the pool to WASTE line. STAND CLEAR OF FILTER and start the pump. 7. Run the pump for at least two minutes. 8.Turn the pump off and set valve to"FILTER" position. Be sure that all pool suction and RETURN lines are open so that water is free to flow from and back to the pool. STAND CLEAR OF FILTER and start the pump. 9.The filter has now started its filtering cycle.You should ensure that water is returning to the pool and take note of the operating pressure when the filter is clean. 10. Check the system for water leaks. If a leak is found, shut the pump off before correcting the leak. 11. As the filter removes dirt and impurities from the pool water, the accumulation will cause the filter pressure to rise and flow to diminish.When the pressure gauge reading is 5-10 psi higher than the clean filter reading noted above, it is time to backwash the filter. - 11 - CLEANING 1. The filter on a new pool should be back washed, and cleaned after approximately 48 hours of operation to clean out plaster dust and/or construction debris. 2. There are three different ways to identify when the filter needs Back washing. The most accurate indicator on pool systems with a flow meter is to backwash when the flow decreases 30%from the original(clean filter)flow.For example,if the original flow was 60 GPM, the filter should be back washed when the flow is reduced by about 20 GPM (or 30%)to 40 GPM. A more subjective and less accurate indicator is to observe the amount of water flowing from the flow directionals located in the wall of the pool. The filter should be back washed once it is detected that the flow has been reduced. The most commonly used but less accurate indicator is to backwash when the filter gauge reading increases 10 PSI over the initial (clean filter) reading. 3. It is important not to backwash the filter solely on a timed basis such as every three days. It is also important to note that back washing too frequently actually causes poor filtration. Factors like weather conditions, heavy rains, dust or pollen, and water temperatures all affect the frequency of backwash.As you use your pool,you will become aware of these influences. 4. To prevent damage to the pump and filter and for proper operation of the system, clean pump strainer and skimmer baskets regularly. 5. If, at any time, the starting pressure after back washing the filter5. If, at any time, the starting pressure after back washing the filter indicates 4 to 6 PSI higher than normal starting pressure, it is time to perform a chemical cleaning procedure. - 12 - FILTER BACKWASH PROCEDURE 1. Stop the pump. WARNING Always turn pump off before changing valve positions. Changing valve positions while the pump is running can damage the control valve, which may cause serious injury or property damage. 2. Ensure that the suction and WASTE lines are open so that water is free to come from the pool and flow out the WASTE line. Set control valve to"BACKWASH"position. 3. STAND CLEAR OF FILTER and start pump. 4. Backwash filter for approximately 3 to 5 minutes or until backwash water is clean. 5. Stop pump and set valve to "RINSE" position. 6. STAND CLEAR OF FILTER and start pump. 7. Rinse filter for approximately 30 seconds. 8. Stop pump and set valve to "FILTER" position. 9. Ensure the pool RETURN line is open so that water may flow freely from the filter back to the pool. 10. STAND CLEAR OF FILTER and start pump. 11. The filter has now started its filtering cycle. Verify the water is returning to the pool and take note of the filter pressure when the filter is clean. 12. The filter pressure in Step 11 above should not exceed the pressure originally observed on the filter when it was initially started. If after Back washing, the pressure is 4 to 6 psi above the start condition it will be necessary to chemically clean the sand bed. WINTERIZING YOUR FILTER CAUTION Allowing water to freeze in the system will damage the system and cause potential water damage/flooding and potential property damage. - 13 - In areas that have freezing winter temperatures, pool equipment must be winterized to protect against damage. 1. Backwash the sand filter. 2. After back washing,shut the pump off and move the handle of valve to WINTER position. WARNING The multi port valve should be left in the "WINTER"position during the shutdown season. Failure to do so can damage the system which can cause property damage from leaking water. 3. Remove the drain cap on the bottom of the filter tank and leave cap off during winter. Completely drain the filter tank. 4. Drain and winterize pump. 5. Drain all appropriate system piping. TROUBLESHOOTING Pool water not sufficiently clean. Control Valve function. Motor is running but no water flows through the pump. Sand is flowing to the pool Higher filter pressure. Return flow to pool diminished, low filter pressure. 1. Pool chemistry not adequate to inhibit algae growth. 2. Improper amount or wrong sand size. 3. Inadequate turnover rate. 1. Control Valve is set between two functions. 2. The gasket is broken. 1. Air is entering the system. 2. Suction height too high, incorrect position. 1. Sand is too small. 2. The level of the sand is too high. 3. Broken under drain assembly. 1. Insufficient back washing. 2. Partially closed valve or restriction. 1. Obstruction in pump. 2. Obstruction in suction line to pump. 1. Maintain pool chemistry or consult service technician. 2. Check sand bed depth and sand size or consult pool service technician. 3. Run system for longer time or consult dealer or pool service technician. 1. Set valve to correct function. 2. Replace the gasket. 1. Check all hose/pipe connections and ensure the strainer lid is tightened. 2. Position the system/pump to a lower place. 1. Sand is too small. 2. The level of the sand is too high. 3. Broken under drain assembly. 1. Backwash until effluent runs clear. 2. Open valve or remove obstruction in return line. 1.Disassemble and clean pump. Clean strainer/skimmer basket. 2. Remove obstruction in lines. - 14 - Technical Support and E-Warranty Certificate www.vevor.com/support Made In China
