OPERATION
The selector valve has a lever with 6 positions that allows you to select each
of the operations necessary for correct operation of the filter.
IMPORTANT: always make the position valve changes with the pump off.
The equipment mainly performs the water filtration function as described in
this manual.
For the correct functioning of the filter and the correct management of the
system to which it is connected, other functions are foreseen.
These functions take place through a different setting of the 6-way valve
connected to the filter (supplied with the filter).
The valve has 6 positions:
- Filtration
- Backwash
- Rinse
- Waste
- Circulation
- Closed
The operating conditions for each position are detailed below.

The selection of the 6-way valve lever must be carried out ONLY AND
EXCLUSIVELY TO THE STATIONARY SYSTEM when the pump is off.
Filtration
It is the normal operating position, performs the function of filtering the
pool water between the inlet and the outlet of th filter.
Observe the pressure gauge regularly, it is recommended to proceed with the
backwash operation when the pressure exceeds 1,1 kg/cm.
Backwash
It is used to clean the filteration media by removing the retained parts during
normal operation. This function must be combined with the opening of the waste
valve with which it should be equipped. Recommended operation time: 2-3min It
is recommended to do a backwash every two weeks and immedaitely after a vaccum
cleaning of the pool.
Rinse
It is an operation to be carried out after backwashing to remove any
impurities left inside the valve after backwashing.
Recommended operating time: 1min
Waste
It is the position of by-passing the inlet water directly to the drain (e.i.
pool emptying).
Circulation
It is the position that allows the system to operate without the filter
function. The water is bypassed directly to the outlet.
Closed
It is the position that closes all the valve passages. Winterizing
It is an intermediate position (0) which, with an empty system, allows to
prevent possible freezing failures.
