You have just become the owner of a sand filter, his base and his valve (see figure 1).
OPERATION
Your filtration system uses a special sand designed to trap impurities in the pool water.
The sand is poured into the tank and acts as a permanent filtration system. The pump
draws in the unfiltered pool water, which contains impurities in suspension, and feeds
it to the multi-way control valve. When the water flows through the sand, the impurities
are trapped there and the water that returns to your pool is filtered.
INSTALLATION
1. Locating the filter
Find a clean, level spot. The top of the filter must be at least 1.5 m distant from the
water level. Place the filter so that the piping, the valve (20), and the drain plug (15)
are easy to reach. This will make servicing and winterizing easier.
2. Assembling the pump
Assemble the pump and its mount with the filter as indicated by the manufacturer's ins-
tructions.
3. Filling the filter
The sand is put in through the opening in the top of the filter.
a. Remove diffuser (7) and pull aside air relief tube (12). Cover the opening in the top
of the elbow (8) with the cap (23) provided for this purpose, to prevent any sand get-
ting in it during filling. Make sure that the drain plug (15) is in place. All laterals (10)
must be in the down position.
b. Half-fill the filter with water, then pour in the required quantity of sand (Cf. table on
label).
The surface of the sand should be levelled and reach the middle of the filter.
c. Remove the cap (23).
d. Replace diffuser (7) on top elbow.
e. Replace air relief tube (12). Place O-Ring (4) on dome (3), install manual air relief
cap (1) with his O-Ring (2) and place dome, once complete, on top of the filter.
f. Fix dome (3) on valve with the clamp (5). There should be around 5 mm of space
left between the two parts of the clamp.
4. Assembling the valve
a. Make sure that the «PUMP» outlet of the valve its towards the pump. Align the two
valve pipe connections, with O-Rings in place, with the two openings in the side of
the filter tank and press in firmly. Secure the assembly to the tank connections with
the two bulkhead locknuts (21).
b. Remove the black plastic screw on the side of the valve and replace it with the pres-
sure gauge (22). Screw in by hand without forcing.
c. Connect the «PUMP» outlet (P) of the valve to the top outlet of the pump as indica-
ted by the manufacturer's instructions.
5. Connecting the valve
Then simply connect the pipes from the pool (cf. fig. 2) and from the skimmers (S) to
the bottom port of the pump, on the prefilter side, the discharge pipes to the valve port
