550-6730 Waterway Crystal Water Cartridge Filter HD Pressure Relief Valve Assembly

$99.99

PRESSURE GAUGE:
Filtration starts as soon as D.E. has been added to the filter. As the filter removes dirt from
the pool water, the accumulated dirt causes a resistance to flow. As a result, the pressure
gauge will rise and the water flow will decrease. When the pressure rises 8-10 psi above
the start (clean) pressure, it is time to backwash (clean) the filter. NOTE: During initial
clean-up of the pool, particularly with a new pool or a very dirty pool, it may be
necessary to backwash more frequently due to the unusually heavy initial dirt
load in the water.

    How to check pressure gauge for normal operation
    Check the operation of your pressure gauge in the following manner:
    • The pressure gauge should go to zero (0) when the pump is OFF and the filter Manual Air Relief Valve is OPEN.
    • The pressure gauge should indicate pressure when the system is operating properly, EXCEPT when a variable speed pump is operating at a very low speed.
    Note: Please refer to the Head Loss Curve chart and notice that a new, clean filter cartridge can handle
    approximately 70 gpm with only 1 psi of back-pressure (caused by the filter alone). A pressure gauge reading of zero (0) is not necessarily an indication there is a problem with the gauge or how the system is operating.
    This is especially true for pool systems designed to the latest energy efficiency standards that use larger pipe and correctly sized return eyeball fittings. These systems are capable of moving large volumes of water with very little back-pressure on the filter or pump allowing these systems to filter water at very low pump speeds resulting in significantly lower energy costs.
    • The pressure gauge should be readable and not damaged.
    • Replace the pressure gauge if it isn’t working properly or is damaged
