EasyTouch Control System User’s Guide
Priming - Max Prime Time: (1 - 15 minutes) Default 15 min.: Use this parameter to set the time that you want IntelliFlo try
and prime before it reports an error. Remember that the IntelliFlo will attain prime every time it starts and goes through this
cycle. The IntelliFlo mechanical seal can withstand about 15 minutes before severe damage occurs. The lower the time the
quicker you will get a priming error if the system is difficult to prime. A well plumbed pool without having the strainer removed
should prime in less than 30 seconds. If the strainer has been removed for cleaning and a substantial amount of air is in the
system it should prime in about 60 to 90 seconds on the average, however, all systems will be different.
Priming - System Prime Time: (0 - 5 minutes) Default 0 min.: Remember that the average unit will prime in a short period of
time because the IntelliFlo has the ability to monitor itself to make sure it is primed. “System Prime 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 PrimeTime” 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.

Clean Filter PSI (1 - 50 psi) Default 14 PSI
The average PSI setting is between 10 PSI and 20 PSI for most pools and filters. The
entered PSI value splits the percentage meter for the filter. When the ""clean filter""
value is reached, EasyTouch displays an alert message and the pump stops monitoring
flow rates and starts managing pressure. The value represents the change in pressure
over time from start up (system clean) to present day (system getting dirty). The
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 GPM (15 - 130 GPM) Default 60 GPM.
Backwash Duration (1-60 minutes) Default 5 minutes.

Vacuum Time Mins. (1 - 600 minutes (10 hours) Default 10 minutes
This parameter can be set from 1 to 600 minutes. The typical setting is 10 minutes. This
setting sets the amount of time you wish to run the pool vacuum.
