The Pentair SuperFlo VS Variable
The Pentair SuperFlo VS Variable Speed pump is very easy to program and set up. Pentair has gone to great lengths to make this pump as user friendly as possible. The programming that I show is based on the pump not being connected to an automated system like the IntelliTouch or EasyTouch, for that set-up you will need an External Control Wiring Kit.
I think most consumers will be using this pump as a stand alone and the video will cover the programming of the pump. The Control panel as been simplified for easy set-up so the first thing you will need to do once the power is on to the pump is set the clock. Simply press the “Display” button for 3 seconds and then use the “+” or “-” to set the clock to a 12 hour or 24 hour time format. Then hit the
“+” or “-” to scroll the time up and down. Hit “Display” again to lock in the time you set.
The pump comes with a pre-set default programmed run time:
SPEED 1 runs for 2 hours at 3000 RPM
SPEED 2 runs for 10 hours at 1400 RPM
SPEED 3 runs for 2 hours at 2200 RPM
You can just use the default run time or simply program one of your own. One thing to note and it is important: the pump will not run at all unless you hit the “Start, Stop” button. You will see a green LED light once the pump is turned on by hitting the “Start, Stop” button. Just remember that after initial set-up.
Also not that each SPEED button must have a program run time. If you only want to run 2 speeds, simply set one of the three SPEED buttons to 0 RPM. Just use the “-” button until the RPM zeros out on that button. IT doesn't matter if that SPEED has a run duration, at 0 RPM it will not engage.
To enter a Custom Schedule make sure the “Start/Stop” button is not illuminated. Now you can program each button by pressing it once. For example:
Hit SPEED 1 “1” button, the LED will blink – now use the “+” and “-” button to set the RPM. Press the button “1” again and now you can set the start time of SPEED 1. Use the “+” and “-”
Press “1” button again and now you can set the run duration – use the “+” and “-” button to set the run duration.
You would simple repeat this process for SPEED 2, SPEED 3 and the “Quick Clean” button.
The “Quick Clean” button is used as a “Time Out” button found on other Variable Speed pumps. By hitting this button you override any program set time and if the pump is off, it will turn on. You can set the “Quick Clean” button to any speed and duration but I recommend 3450 RPM for 3 hours. This is a good button to press when you add chemicals to your pool or when you want to use your attached spa. The 3450 RPM is the pumps full 1 ½ HP speed.
I also touch on using the FlowVis Flow Meter to set your pumps run time specifically for one cycle of water. Using a flow meter like the FlowVis will allow you to set your pumps run time exactly in
