Some Tips:
The P320 will provide around 15,000 to 18,000 litres per hour on high speed, depending on pipework, valves,
filter size and other equipment installed on your pool. On low speed the factory preset flow rate is
approximately 7,500 litres per hour. Low speed will use approximately 10% of the power consumption that
high speed will use. Therefore, operating the pump 8 hours per day will provide a 60,000 litre pool one
complete turn over.
The P600 pump will provide around 36,000 litres per hour on high speed, depending on pipe work and the
Factory preset low speed at 1125 RPM will provide around 12,000 litres per Hour. This is sufficient to turn a
96,000 litre pool over once per day.
As a guide, low speed should achieve a visible skimming of the surface of the pool through your skimmer box.
When connected to an AstralPool compatible salt chlorinator, Viron Connect Touch Screen Control System, we
recommend that for one hour a day the filtration period is operated on at least medium speed to achieve full
circulation and good surface skimmer of the pool. The balance of the filtration cycle can then be set on low
speed.
However, should your pool water develop cloudiness or your pool surface exhibit algae growth you may need
to increase the low speed of your pump to ensure adequate circulation of water and chlorine to all parts of
your pool.
It is important to check your chlorine levels, pH and other parameters to ensure your water quality is correct
before adjusting the speed of your pump. We recommend these checks are carried out by your professional
pool shop or service technician.
