Abstract
A swimming pool filtration systems and particularly toward a variable speed pump equipped with an electronically commutated motor, capable of producing variable water pressure heads suitable for operating swimming pool pressure cleaners as well as swimming pool filters. An electronically controlled electric actuating diverter valve is used to divert water flow to the filter or the pressure cleaner.
Claims13
A device for producing variable water pressure heads suitable for operating swimming pool pressure cleaners as well as swimming pool filters comprising:
- a single pump that acts as a hybrid between a pressure-side pool cleaner booster pump and a filter pump, said single pump being variable speed and being equipped with an electronically commutated motor;
- a relay or a solid state power switching device;
- and
- a microprocessor control system that adjusts the speed of said motor and resultant operating head of said pump and actuates an electrically-actuated diverter valve to divert water to a swimming pool pressure cleaner when the pump selectively operates in cleaning mode or to a swimming pool filter when in filtration mode.
A device for producing variable water pressure heads suitable for operating swimming pool pressure cleaners as well as swimming pool filters comprising:
- a variable speed swimming pool pump operating without a booster pump that is equipped with an electronically commutated motor;
- an impeller with a minimum diameter of five inches;
- a relay or a solid state power switching device;
- and
- a microprocessor control system that adjusts the speed of said motor and resultant operating head of said pump and actuate an electrically actuated diverter valve to divert the water to a swimming pool pressure cleaner when the pump selectively operates in cleaning mode or a swimming pool filter when in filtration mode.
A device for producing variable water pressure heads suitable for operating swimming pool pressure cleaners as well as swimming pool filters comprising:
- a variable speed swimming pool pump operating without a booster pump that is equipped with an electronically commutated motor;
- a microprocessor control system that adjusts the speed of said motor and resultant operating head of said pump and
- a manually actuated diverter valve to divert water to a swimming pool pressure cleaner when the pump selectively operates in cleaning mode or to a swimming pool filter when in filtration mode.

- a variable speed swimming pool pump operating without a booster pump that is equipped with an electronically commutated motor;
- an impeller with a minimum diameter of five inches;
- a microprocessor control system that adjusts the speed of said motor and resultant operating head of said pump;
- and
- a manually actuated diverter valve to divert water to a swimming pool pressure cleaner when the pump selectively operates in cleaning mode or to a swimming pool filter when in filtration mode.
A device for producing variable water pressure heads suitable for operating swimming pool pressure cleaners as well as swimming pool filters comprising:
- a single pump that acts as a hybrid between a pressure-sided pool cleaner booster pump and a filter pump, said single pump being variable speed and being equipped with an electronically commutated motor which allows for adjustment of the pump pressure head.
A device for producing variable water pressure heads suitable for operating swimming pool pressure cleaners as well as swimming pool filters comprising:
- a single pump that acts as a hybrid between a pressure-sided pool cleaner booster pump and a swimming or spa pool filter, said single pump being variable speed;
- an electrically commutated motor;
- at least three relays or solid state power switching devices;
- a microprocessor control system that adjusts the speed of said motor and resultant operating head of said pump and actuates an electrically actuated diverter valve to divert water to a swimming pool or spa pressure cleaner when in cleaning mode or to a swimming pool or spa filter when in filtration mode wherein said control system selectively actuates a second diverter valve to divert water return to a pool or spa and actuates a third diverter valve to divert water intake.
