3. இயக்க வழிமுறைகள்

The multi-port valve controls the filter's operation. Always turn off the pump before changing the valve position to prevent damage.

3.1. Valve Positions

  • வடிகட்டி: Normal filtration mode. Water flows through the filter media and returns to the pool.
  • பேக்வாஷ்: Cleans the filter media by reversing water flow. Water is discharged through the waste line.
  • துவைக்க: Used after backwashing to settle the filter media and flush out any remaining debris from the waste line.
  • WASTE/DRAIN: Bypasses the filter, sending water directly to the waste line. Useful for vacuuming heavy debris or lowering pool water level.
  • மறு சுழற்சி: Bypasses the filter, circulating water directly back to the pool. Useful for chemical distribution without filtration.
  • மூடப்பட்டது: Shuts off all flow to the filter and pool. Use for pump maintenance or when the filter is not in use.

3.2 ஆரம்ப தொடக்கம்

  1. Ensure the filter is filled with sand and all connections are secure.
  2. மல்டி-போர்ட் வால்வை "பேக்வாஷ்" நிலைக்கு அமைக்கவும்.
  3. Turn on the pump and backwash for 2-3 minutes, or until the water in the sight glass (if present) runs clear.
  4. பம்பை அணைக்கவும்.
  5. Set the valve to the "RINSE" position.
  6. பம்பை இயக்கி 30-60 வினாடிகள் துவைக்கவும்.
  7. பம்பை அணைக்கவும்.
  8. Set the valve to the "FILTER" position.
  9. Turn on the pump. The filter is now operating in normal filtration mode.

  1. பம்பை அணைக்கவும்.
  2. மல்டி-போர்ட் வால்வை "BACKWASH" ​​ஆக அமைக்கவும்.
  3. Turn on the pump and backwash until the water in the sight glass runs clear (typically 2-3 minutes).
  4. பம்பை அணைக்கவும்.
  5. Set the valve to "RINSE".
  6. பம்பை இயக்கி 30-60 வினாடிகள் துவைக்கவும்.
  7. பம்பை அணைக்கவும்.
  8. Set the valve to "FILTER".
  9. வழக்கமான வடிகட்டுதலை மீண்டும் தொடங்க பம்பை இயக்கவும்.

4.2. Winterization (if applicable)

In colder climates, proper winterization is essential to prevent freeze damage.

  • Drain all water from the filter tank by opening the drain valve.
  • Remove the manometer and store it in a warm, dry place.
