Description

The W’eau MFV-17 variable sand filter set is an innovative solution for pool maintenance. This filter set is equipped with a variable speed pool pump, meaning you can easily adjust the speed of the pump to the needs of your pool. This ensures that the pump only runs at full power when necessary, which saves energy and results in lower costs. With a maximum capacity of 8 m³ per hour, the VPP-450 is perfectly suited for swimming pools up to 36,000 liters, effectively removing all dirt particles for clean and clear water.

The 6-way valve makes it easy to switch between different functions, such as filtering, backwashing, and rinsing. The filter vessel is made of sturdy polyethylene (PE) reinforced with polyester, making it resistant to high pressure and intensive use. This sand filter set comes with a self-priming pump, which means the pump automatically draws in water for optimal operation. The VPP-450 is ideal for both above-ground and built-in pools and is delivered Plug & Play, complete with plug and coupling for easy installation.

Saving costs with a variable pump

The W’eau MFV-17 uses a variable speed pool pump, allowing you to adjust the pump speed yourself. This ensures that the pump only operates at full power when truly necessary, which saves energy and reduces operating costs. The pump consumes less power and provides efficient filtration of the pool water.

Functions of the 6-way valve:

1. Filter: Water flows from top to bottom through the sand bed, removing dirt and impurities.
2. Backwash: Clean the sand bed by reversing the water flow to remove accumulated dirt.
3. Rinse: Flush out dirty water after backwashing, so the filter is ready for use.
4. Close: Closes all inlets and outlets when the filter is not in use.
5. Waste: Drains pool water directly into the sewer, for example to lower the water level.
6. Recirculate: Allows water to circulate without passing through the filter, ideal for chemical treatments such as algae control.

Summary:

The W’eau MFV-17 variable sand filter set offers a smart and energy-efficient solution for maintaining your pool. With its variable pump, generous capacity, and convenient 6-way valve, this set ensures efficient cleaning for pools up to 36,000 liters. This set is easy to install and ideal for intensive use in both above-ground and built-in swimming pools.
