Description
Energy Saving Variable Speed Pump
The pump’s impeller and diffuser design have been chosen carefully to help improve flow and efficiency by eliminating constrictions and obstacles maximise the hydraulic output of the pump while minimising turbulence.
Energy Saving
- A pool filtration system does not require to be operated at a pump’s maximum water flow rate as with the use of a conventional pool pump limited to one speed. Your pool’s filtration efficiency improves at lower flow rates.
- As a pool’s filtration cycle occupies 99% of the run time of a pool pump, you can operate the Alphaflo ECO-V 100 on its low (ECO) speed setting for a majority of its running time, leading to a potential 80% savings in energy.
- Equipped with the very latest variable speed permanent magnet brushless DC motor, Alphaflo ECO-V 100 is capable of lowering its motor speed, reducing water flow and lowering its energy consumption.
Variable 3 Speed Options
- Alphaflo ECO-V 100’s variable 3-speed options cater for most pool functions.
High speed
- Vacuuming and backwashing – 1% of the time
Medium speed
- Automatic pool cleaners
Low speed
- Filtration – 99% of the time
Variable speed
- Alphaflo ECO-V 100 is also equipped with an energy-saving variable speedmotor that offers the finest adjustment in operating speed with 25 RPM increments, allowing finetuning of the pump’s motor speed to perfectly match the flow requirements of the swimming pool, maximising energy savings and minimising pump noise.
Engineered Durability
- The pump body is manufactured utilising state-of-the-art engineering plastic moulding with a single-piece strainer pot and volute for extra strength.
- A high-grade 316 stainless steel mechanical seal is incorporated for extra protection against corrosion. e.g. from chlorinated water, ozone, iodine, Baquacil, bromine and salt water.
Unique Motor Safeguarding Design
- The Alphaflo pump has a unique design that stops water from leaking into the motor through the drive shaft.
- A mechanical seal may leak water if the pump is ever run dry or simply worn out. If a leaky mechanical seal is not replaced promptly, water will travel up the shaft of the motor and ruin the motor in a very short period.
- Waterco’s unique Alphaflo design protects the pump motor’s end shield from any water contact, by allowing any water leaks through worn-out mechanical seals by draining out of the pump.
