This manual provides essential information for the safe and efficient operation and maintenance of your FibroPool Sand Filter Pump System. The FSP series filter systems are designed for above-ground swimming pools, utilizing sand as a filtration medium and featuring a 6-position multiport valve for versatile operation. This system is built on a durable base and includes necessary hose adapters and unions for connection to most standard pools. Proudly designed, engineered, and assembled in the USA, this system aims to provide high efficiency and reliable performance for your pool.

The system is ideal for above ground pools up to 18,000 gallons (e.g., 24ft round or 16x32 oval pools).

2 സുരക്ഷാ വിവരങ്ങൾ

Please read all safety instructions carefully before installation and operation. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or property damage.

• ഇലക്ട്രിക്കൽ സുരക്ഷ: Ensure the power source is 220 Volts and matches the pump's requirements. Always connect the pump to a grounded outlet protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). Do not operate the pump if the power cord is damaged. Keep all electrical connections dry.
• ജല സുരക്ഷ: Never operate the pump dry. Ensure the pump is primed with water before starting. Do not allow children to operate or play near the pool equipment.
• മർദ്ദ സുരക്ഷ: The filter system operates under pressure. Do not attempt to open the filter or pump while the system is running. Always relieve pressure before performing any maintenance or service.
• ഇൻസ്റ്റലേഷൻ: Install the system on a firm, level surface. Ensure adequate ventilation around the pump and filter.
• രാസവസ്തുക്കൾ: Handle pool chemicals with care and store them safely away from the filter system.

Follow these steps for proper installation of your FibroPool Sand Filter Pump System.

1. സ്ഥാനനിർണ്ണയം: Place the durable equipment base on a firm, level surface near your above-ground pool. Ensure the location allows for proper drainage and is protected from direct weather exposure if possible.
2. Filter Tank Assembly:
   • Place the filter tank onto the equipment base.
   • Fill the filter tank with the appropriate amount of filter sand (sand not included). The FSP series can utilize up to 220 lbs of sand. Refer to the tank's label for specific sand requirements for your model.
   • Carefully install the 6-position multiport valve onto the top of the filter tank. Ensure the O-ring is properly seated and secure the valve with the provided clamp.
   • Install the pressure gauge into the designated port on the multiport valve.

3. പമ്പ് ഇൻസ്റ്റാളേഷൻ:
   • Place the pump unit onto the equipment base next to the filter tank.
   • Connect the schedule 40 connector hose between the pump's discharge port and the "PUMP" port on the multiport valve. Use the provided unions and apply PTFE tape to all threaded connections for a leak-proof seal.
   • Connect the pool's skimmer line to the pump's suction inlet. Use the appropriate hose adapters and clamps provided to ensure a secure fit. The pump features 1.5-inch threaded connections for near-universal compatibility.
   • Connect the pool's return line to the "RETURN" port on the multiport valve, again using appropriate adapters and PTFE tape.
   • Ensure the drain/waste port on the multiport valve is directed to a suitable drainage area.

4. ഇലക്ട്രിക്കൽ കണക്ഷൻ:
   • Ensure all plumbing connections are tight and leak-free.
   • Verify the pump's clear top lid (strainer basket cover) is securely fastened.
   • Plug the 6-foot weatherproof power cable into a 220 Volt grounded outlet protected by a GFCI.

5. ഓപ്പറേഷൻ

The FibroPool Sand Filter Pump System features a user-friendly 6-position multiport valve and a high-efficiency single-speed pump for straightforward operation.

Multiport Valve Functions:

Always turn off the pump before changing the multiport valve position to prevent damage to the valve or system.

• ഫിൽട്ടർ: Normal filtering operation. Water flows through the sand bed, trapping debris, and returns to the pool.
• ബാക്ക്വാഷ്: Used for cleaning the filter sand. Water flows in reverse through the filter, flushing trapped debris out the waste port.
• കഴുകുക: Used after backwashing to settle the sand bed and flush any remaining dirty water to waste before returning to filter mode.
• മാലിന്യം/വെള്ളം: Bypasses the filter and pumps water directly out the waste port. Useful for lowering pool water level or vacuuming heavy debris directly to waste.
• റെസിക്കുലേറ്റ്/ബൈപാസ്: ഫിൽട്ടറിനെ മറികടന്ന് വെള്ളം നേരിട്ട് കുളത്തിലേക്ക് തിരികെ വിതരണം ചെയ്യുന്നു. ഫിൽട്ടർ ചെയ്യാതെ രാസവസ്തുക്കൾ വിതരണം ചെയ്യുന്നതിന് ഉപയോഗപ്രദമാണ്.
• അടച്ചു: Shuts off flow to the filter and pump. Use only when performing maintenance on the pump or filter, and ensure the pump is off.

1. Ensure the pool is filled to the proper level and all connections are secure.
2. Set the multiport valve to the "FILTER" position.
3. Turn on the pump. The ABG series pumps can push up to 4500 gallons per hour (GPH) at 3400 RPM.
4. Observe the pressure gauge. The initial clean filter pressure should be noted. This will be your baseline.
