Initial Operation - MARIMEX ProStar 4 Anleitung

ar as soon as these fine particles are washed out of the filter. This is not a defect of
filtration unit.

Initial operation

Once the filtration vessel has been filled with sand fill and hoses have been connec-
ted according to the description above and system fully watered, the process of ini-
tial rinsing can be started to put the filtration unit into operation. Switch the filtra-
tion unit on and wait till it starts to suck the water. When the pump sucks water, the
backwashing process can be started. If necessary repeat the backwashing process.
FILTRATION
ATTENTION: Due to safety reasons and prevention of flooding of filtration unit
check after connecting all the joints and sealing if seat well and seal correctly.
• Water from pool should circulate over the pump at least 3 to 5 times depending
on system size and load. The necessary time depends on filtration capacity and
pool size. When the pool is used intensively or with unusual pollution the opera-
tion period of the filtration unit must be prolonged.
• Impurities from circulating water are captured in the sand fill of the filtration
unit. If you add flocculant the filtering ability will grown and at the same time the
consumption of water improvement agents will be reduced.
BACKWASHING
• Switch the pump motor off.
• Set the six-way valve in the position >>4<< "Backwashing"
• Switch the pump motor on, after 5 minutes of backwashing the filter will be clean.
• Check visually the waste pipe outflow.
• Switch off the pump motor.
• Set the six-way valve to the position >>2<< "Rinsing"
• Switch on the pump motor.
• Next 30 seconds the chamber for clean water is being rinsed to the waste pipe.
• Switch off the pump motor.
• Set the six-way valve to the position >>1<< "Filtration"
• Switch on the pump motor.
The filtration system is prepared for further operation. Note the value on pressure gauge.
Manual manometer positions
• green field – 0-12 = 0.5 bar
• yellow field – 12-16 = 1 bar
• red field – 16-30 = 1.5 bar
When properly connected, the hand is approximately halfway across the green
field.
ATTENTION: It generally applies that before each switch over of the six-way valve
the pump motor must be disconnected by taking the plug out of the socket.
Before each manipulation with the valve, switch the filtration pump off and wait
approximately 15 minutes till the blowing sand is set.
• Check whether the waste water drain is not clogged before start of backwashing.
