Setup und Installation

The Intex Krystal Clear Sand Filter Pump is designed for easy setup. Follow these general steps for installation:

1. Platzierung: Position the pump on a firm, level surface, at least 10 feet (3 meters) from the pool. Ensure it is protected from direct sunlight and adverse weather conditions.
2. Sandauffüllung: Carefully fill the sand tank with the recommended amount and type of filter sand (50 lb (23 kg) #20 Silica). Refer to the detailed user guide for specific instructions on filling and leveling the sand.
3. Schlauchanschlüsse: Connect the hoses from the pool's inlet and outlet fittings to the corresponding ports on the pump. Ensure all connections are secure and leak-free.
4. Stromanschluss: Plug the pump into a grounded electrical outlet with GFCI protection. Do not operate the pump without water.
5. Grundierung: Before starting, ensure the pump is primed according to the user guide to remove any air from the system.

Bedienungsanleitung

The sand filter pump features a multi-port valve with several functions to manage your pool water. Always turn off the pump before changing the valve position.

• Filter: Dies ist der Standardbetriebsmodus für die tägliche Filtration. Das Wasser wird durch das Sandbett gepumpt, wobei Schmutzpartikel zurückgehalten werden, und anschließend wieder in den Pool zurückgeleitet.
• Rückspülung: Used to clean the sand filter. Water flows in reverse through the sand bed, dislodging trapped debris, and is discharged through the waste port. Perform backwash when the pressure gauge indicates a higher than normal reading (typically 5-10 PSI above starting pressure).
• Abspritzen: After backwashing, this mode is used to settle the sand bed and flush any remaining dirty water to waste before returning to filter mode.
• Umwälzen: Water is circulated through the pump and returned to the pool without passing through the sand filter. Useful for distributing chemicals or when filtration is not needed.
• Ablassen: Used to drain water directly from the pool through the waste port, bypassing the filter.
• Geschlossen: Shuts off all flow to the filter and pool. Use this setting when performing maintenance on the pump or pool.

The built-in 24-hour timer allows you to set automatic operating cycles from 2 to 12 hours. Consult the user guide for detailed instructions on setting the timer and specific operating procedures for each function.

Wartung

Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and optimal performance of your sand filter pump. Key maintenance tasks include:

• Rückspülen: Perform backwash regularly, typically when the pressure gauge reads 5-10 PSI above its clean operating pressure, or when water flow decreases noticeably. This removes trapped debris from the sand.
• Spülen: Always follow backwashing with a rinse cycle to settle the sand and prevent dirty water from returning to the pool.
• Sandersatz: Filter sand typically needs replacement every 5 years, depending on usage and water quality. Refer to the user guide for detailed instructions on sand replacement.
• Strainer Basket Cleaning: Periodically check and clean the strainer basket located before the pump impeller to remove large debris and ensure unrestricted water flow.
• Überwinterung: Properly winterize the pump at the end of the swimming season to prevent damage from freezing temperatures. This involves draining all water from the pump and filter, and storing components in a dry, protected area.
