5. Parentah Operasi

The multi-port valve controls the flow of water through the filter system. Always turn off the pump before changing the valve position to prevent damage.

Multi-Port Valve Positions:

  • FILTER: Normal filtering operation. Water flows through the sand bed, trapping debris, and returns to the pool. This is the most common setting.
  • BACKWASH: Used to clean the filter sand. Water flows in reverse through the sand bed, dislodging trapped debris, and is directed out the waste port. Backwash until the sight glass (if present) runs clear.
  • Bilas: Used after backwashing to settle the sand bed and flush any remaining dirty water to waste. Run for 30-60 seconds.
  • RUNTAH/SORONG: Ngaliwatan filter sareng ngirimkeun cai langsung ka palabuhan runtah. Mangpaat pikeun nyedot runtah beurat langsung ka runtah atanapi nurunkeun tingkat cai kolam renang.
  • RECIRCULATE/BYPASS: Ngaliwatan filter sareng ngalirkeun cai langsung ka kolam renang. Mangpaat pikeun nyebarkeun bahan kimia tanpa nyaring.
  • TUTUP/Usum tiis: Closes all ports to the filter. Use for servicing the pump or filter, or for winterizing the system. Never operate the pump in this position.

  • Pembersih Keranjang Pompa: Regularly inspect and clean the pump strainer basket. Turn off the pump, close necessary valves, remove the lid, empty debris, and replace.
  • Filter Sand Replacement: Filter sand typically lasts 3-5 years, depending on usage and water chemistry. Replace the sand when filtration efficiency decreases despite regular backwashing.
  • Winterization: In cold climates, drain all water from the pump, filter, and plumbing lines to prevent freezing damage. Store the multi-port valve handle in the "WINTERIZE" or "CLOSED" position (if available) or remove it and store indoors.
