Securing lter assembly (see g. 7,8)
Ensure the O-ring on the top of the lter tank is in good condition and is free of
sand. Take the eliminator and press it into the center hole located under the tank
cover. If you are assembling Speedclean Comfort 75, the eliminator will already be
in place. (There are two slots in the tank into which you can press the eliminator. It
does not matter which one you use.) Carefully place the tank cover onto the lter
tank. The tank cover should be turned so that the notch on the cover is aligned with
the matching tab on the lter tank – this ensures proper alignment.
Secure tank cover with the clamp provided for it and tighten with the bolt and the
knob.
Connecting the hoses (see g. 9,10,11)
Connecting the lter system
Before connecting to the lter or the pump, make sure that no water ows from the
inlet or the outlet hose to your pool.
Pools with 1¼” or 1½” diameter plugged hoses (see g. 12,13)
The following instructions assume that your pool is already fully assembled and
attached to the inlet and outlet water hoses. Ensure that all hose-connections are
tight and that the hoses are neither kinked nor have several bends.
INTEX® Pools with 2” hose connector (see g. 15-18)
Ensure that all hose-connections are tight and that the hoses are neither kinked nor
have several bends.
Filter operations
Setting Complete water ow/function
Filtern
Position 1
Illustrati-
on 19
Function: Vacuum, regular pool lter action. This is
the setting the lter will be set to most of the time. In
this position, water is directed through the top of the
lter where it compresses and attens down the sand.
Contaminants are trapped by the sand as water makes
it way to the bottom strainer, out of the lter and back to
the pool.
Rinse
Position 2
Illustrati-
on 20
Function: Use after backwashing to clean the lter bed.
This should always be done immediately after backwas-
hing, new sand addition or lter start-up. In this position,
water is directed to the top of the tank where it ushes
the valve while sending water out the waste line.
Cirkula-
tion
Position 3
Illustrati-
on 21
Function: circulate water after chemical treatment. This
position is used during cer¬tain pool cleanups and
chemical treatments when you don’t want the water
contaminat¬ing the sand. In this position, water is only
directed through the valve back to the pool and does not
lter through the sand.
Back-
wash
Position 4
Illustrati-
on 22
Function: clean lter of captured debris. This is the
position needed to clean the lter/the sand. You’ll know
it is time to backwash when the pressure gauge rises
0,3 to 0,6 bar above what it normally reads when the
lter is clean. In this position, water is directed through
the bottom strainer, reversing the ow through the tank.
This causes the sand to separate and lift while releasing
trapped debris out the waste line.
Closed
Position 5
Illustrati-
on 23
Function: Cleaning the hair and lint strainer. This positi-
on stops the ow of water into the pump and lter.
CAUTION: Do not run pump with valve in this position.
Purge/
Drain
Position 6
Illustrati-
on 24
Function: bypass the lter. This position is ideal for
vacuuming pools with large amounts of debris or after
an algae treat¬ment. In this position, water bypasses the
lter and sends all the water and contaminates out the
waste line.
Winterize
Position 7
Illustrati-
on 25
Function: winterizing and storage. In this position, the
valve lever is between positions which removes pressu-
re from internal valve components for winter (off-season)
storage.
CAUTION: Do not run pump with valve in this position.
Important Do´s and Dont´s
DO:
■ Be aware and make note of the lter pressure when the sand is clean. Backwash
when you see an increase of 0,3 – 0,6 bar on the pressure gauge.
■ Backwash long enough to get the job done right. Let the system backwash until
the water leaving the waste line is clear. Note that backwashing can remove 200
– 1100 liter of water from your pool so pay attention. Also, be aware of local codes
regarding pool water disposal as some communities outlaw drainage.
DONT‘S:
■ Move valve handle while the pump is running. It will damage the valve and pos
-
sibly other equipment as well.
In start up
Once the lter system has been properly assembled, the sand chamber lled with
sand and the hoses connected as described above, you may begin with ltration.
However, we recommend that you clean and prepare the new sand that is in the
sand chamber rst. Cleaning the sand prior to ltering your pool will remove most
of the dust and tiny sand particles that may exist in the sand. If you move straight to
ltering, these particles will end up in your pool. To clean the sand, please follow the
instructions below:
Do not plug the system in until advised to do so below.
■ Ensure the power cord of the pump is unplugged.
■ Turn the valve lever into the „closed“ position.
■ Before running the lter system, make sure that the ltration system is positioned
outside the basin and level lower than the water level of the pool, as well as the
hose connections are properly connected and xed.
■ If your pool is not lled, ll it with water. Ensure that the water level of the pool is at
least 2.5 to 5 cm above the opening of the lling nozzle (skimmer).
■ Open the plunger valve on the lling nozzle (skimmer) of the pool. If you have
closed the lling nozzle (skimmer) with a plug, remove it now.
■ Since the location of the ltration system is lower than the water level of the pool,
the ltration system now automatically lls with water.
■ Now the lter system is vented. If available, slightly open the pre-lter cover of the
lter pump until water ows out of the prelter pot (transparent cover with screw
connection on the top of the lter pump).
■ Fill the lter tank with water.
■ Check the lter system and connecting hoses for leaks and remove them if
necessary. Due to production tolerances, it may happen that, in the event of any
leaks, a Teon tape must be wound over the connections before the connecting
hose is inserted.
■ Backwash the lter media as described.
Backwash Prozess
■ S Disconnect the Motor/Pump from the Power Source.
■ Attach backwash hose (not included) to backwash port.
■ Place the Multi-Port Valve in the “Backwash” position.
■ Reconnect to power source.
■ Run lter in BACKWASH mode until discharge water is clear.
■ Disconnect the Motor/Pump from the Power Source.
■ Place the Multi-Port Valve in the “RINSE” position.
■ Reconnect to power source.
■ Allow lter to run for 60 seconds to remove any remaining residue from pump
and valve.
■ Disconnect the Motor/Pump from the Power Source.
■ Place the Multi-Port Valve in the “Filtration” position.
■ Reconnect to power source.
■ Your ltration system is RUNNING and ready for further operation.
Filtering time
The swimming pool’s water should be circulated and ltered at least 3 to 5 times
in a 24 hour period, depending on the load and the size of the lter system. The
time required is based on the performance of the lter system and the size of the
swimming pool. However, we recommend a minimum running time of 12 hours per
day.
Power source Instructions
The lter system you have purchased is equipped with a connection cable, which
may only be connected to a circuit with a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB)
with a rated residual current of no more than 30mA.
