IntelliFlo Installation and User’s Guide
Filter Mode
IntelliFlo will calculate the required flow rate based on pool size, clean filter pressure, pool turns per day
and cycles per day, and will control the motor speed to keep a constant flow. The filter mode can run
cycles, power save or features. The IntelliFlo internal scheduler will keep track of which function to run.
IntelliFlo is constantly monitoring the filter, when it detects that the system is dirty, it will display an “Alert -
Service System Soon” message on the control panel display. The user must then clean the filter by
performing a Backwash cycle (see page 33).
Filter Menu
To access the Filter menu settings:
1. Ensure that the green power LED is on and the pump is stopped.
2. Press the Menu button. Press the Up or Down arrows to select the “Filter” menu.
Press the Select button, “Clean Filter Pressure” is displayed.
3.
To set the Clean Filter Pressure:
Press the Select button to access the “Clean
Filter Pressure” setting. To edit the pressure setting, see step 6 on the following
page.
This parameter can be set from 1 PSI to 50 PSI. The average setting should be
between 10 PSI and 20 PSI for most pools and filters. The entered PSI value splits
the percentage meter for the filter. The “Service System Soon” alert is activated by
the entered PSI value. When this value is reached 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. For more information, refer to “Clean Filter Pressure” on page 19.
4.
To set the Turnovers Per Day:
Press the Select button to access the “Turnovers Per
Day” setting. To edit this setting, see step 6 on the following page.
This setting is the number of times you wish to turn over the water that is setup in the
“Pool Volume” part of the “Pool Data” menu (see page 13).
You can set up to eight turns per day. It is recommended that one turn per day for
energy conservation and requirements be performed for most common residential
pools. Refer to sanitizer recommendation for additional information.
