Operating the Pump in Flow Mode
When connected to an inline 4-20mA owmeter, this
pump is capable of maintaining a constant ow based on
the needs of your pool system.
Connecting a owmeter and operating the pump in ow
mode will require the purchase of:
• Digital Input Wiring Kit (P/N 353129Z - Almond)
or RS-485 Automation Wiring Kit (P/N 356324Z -
Black).
Flow mode operation is not possible if controlling the pump
via RS-485.
• A 4-20mA Flowmeter (Pentair recommends P/N
97014-4203KIT)
Flow Mode Setup and Conguration
Before beginning ow mode setup and conguration,
ensure the pool lter has been backwashed and all
pump and skimmer baskets are free of debris.
1. Press Start/Stop to stop the pump.
2. Following the installation instructions given in
the owmeter’s installation guide, install an inline
4-20mA owmeter into the plumbing.
3. Using the Digital Input Wiring Kit, wire the owmeter
to the pump’s digital input port. See Figure 18A.
Note: Flow mode is not compatible with external
control via RS-485. However, a owmeter can still
be connected. See Figure 18B.

K Factor: Refer to owmeter manual
Averaging: 10-30 (20 is recommended)
Sensitivity: Refer to owmeter manual
4-Set: 0 GPM
20-Set: GPM displayed while pump motor is at
maximum speed set in step 8.
Note: Flowmeter conguration will timeout at the
drive after 10 minutes. If this occurs, repeat steps
4 through 10.
Note: The owmeter 20-Set will need to be
recongured each time the system’s lter is
cleaned.
