What causes electrical problems in Pentair INTELLIPRO VS+SVRS?
An electrical problem in your Pentair Water Pump, such as a “Low Voltage” alarm or an “Over Heat” alert, could be due to low voltage or loose connections. Check the voltage at the motor terminals and at the meter while the pump is running. If the voltage is low, refer to the wiring instructions or consult your power company. Also, check for any loose connections.
What to do if Pentair Water Pump has inadequate circulation?
Inadequate circulation in your Pentair Water Pump can occur if debris is present or the speed is not set properly. Check the trap basket and, if it's plugged, turn the pump off and clean the basket. Also, ensure that the speed is appropriately set for proper filtration.
What to do if Pentair Water Pump trips and restarts constantly?
If your Pentair Water Pump is constantly tripping and restarting, it could be due to several factors. You can try the following: * Bleed air from the filter and make sure no air bubbles are entering the pump pot. * Use a vacuum gauge to check the pump port connection, ensuring the vacuum level is 25 in. mercury (hg) or less. * Stop the pump and clear any blockages. * Reduce the system flow and/or change the speed. * Reduce water flow. * If you have an in-floor cleaning system, ensure it's designed with balanced hydraulic losses on all legs. * Enable priming from the “PRIMING” menu. * Lower the ramp speed below 200 RPM. Adding external manual valve controls might also help.
How to fix mechanical troubles and noise in Pentair INTELLIPRO VS+SVRS?
Mechanical troubles and noise in your Pentair Water Pump can be attributed to cavitation. Ensure that the suction and discharge piping are adequately supported to prevent strain on the pump assembly. Securely mount the pump on a concrete platform, avoiding wooden platforms for quieter performance. If there's foreign matter (like gravel or metal) in the pump impeller, disassemble the pump, clean the impeller, and follow the pump service instructions for reassembly. Additionally, improve suction conditions by increasing pipe size, decreasing the number of fittings, and increasing discharge pressure.
Why IntelliFlo Pentair INTELLIPRO VS+SVRS Water Pump does not respond to system commands?
If your IntelliFlo pump isn't responding to system commands, it could be due to improper setup or a communication issue. First, make sure the communication cable is securely connected at both ends. Check that the IntelliFlo pump's local address matches the address used in the IntelliTouch system. Also, ensure that the IntelliFlo pump has been assigned a circuit name on the IntelliTouch system. The IntelliFlo pump display should show “DISPLAY NOT ACTIVE”. If you suspect a defective device on the network, disconnect devices sequentially until the network starts working.
Why is my Pentair INTELLIPRO VS+SVRS Water Pump failing?
Pump failure can occur due to several reasons: * **Air leak in suction:** Check the suction piping and valve glands on any suction gate valves. Ensure the lid on the pump strainer pot is secure and the lid gasket is in place. Also, verify the water level to ensure the skimmer isn't drawing air. Make sure the suction lines, pump, strainer, and pump volute are full of water. Adjust the prime sensitivity to a higher setting, with the default being 1%. Clean the pump strainer pot and replace the gasket if necessary. * **Not enough water:** Follow the same steps as for an air leak in the suction. * **Pump does not come out of prime:** Follow the same steps as for an air leak in the suction. * **Pump strainer clogged:** Follow the same steps as for an air leak in the suction, paying spe...
Why is my Pentair Water Pump having reduced capacity?
Reduced capacity in your Pentair Water Pump can be caused by: * **Air pockets or leaks in the suction line:** Check the suction piping and valve glands on any suction gate valves. Also, clean the suction trap. * **Clogged impeller:** Turn off the electrical power to the pump. Remove the (6) bolts holding the volute to the seal plate. Slide the motor and seal plate away from the volute. Clean any debris from the impeller. If you can't remove the debris, you may need to remove the diffuser and O-ring, then remove the left-hand thread anti-spin bolt and O-ring. Remove, clean, and reinstall the impeller. Reinstall the anti-spin bolt and O-ring, the diffuser and O-ring, and then reinstall the motor and seal plate into the volute. Secure everything with the (6) bolts. * **Pump strainer cl...
