Pentair Intelliflo

Traditional pool pumps are high energy consumers. In fact, it’s not unusual for a pump to consume as much energy as all other home appliances combined…Fortunately, there is IntelliFlo® VS-3050, a breakthrough innovation that’s brimming with new technology to drastically reduce energy costs and provide many other benefits as well.

First, IntelliFlo® VS-3050 uses an exclusive permanent magnet motor (used in hybrid cars) that is fundamentally more energy efficient and typically accounts for “base energy savings” of 30%. Next, the IntelliFlo® VS-3050 is a unique variable speed pump with four selectable pre-set speeds in the control panel. This allows customised programming of optimum pump speeds for specific tasks – filtering, heating, cleaning, spa jets, waterfalls, etc. Using slower speeds takes advantage of a fundamental pump law: by going slower, power consumption is reduced. The result is additional savings…. Potentially up to 90% compared to even so-called high efficiency single-speed or two-speed pumps.

• The quietest pump on the planet: thanks to its permanent magnet motor and the fact that it is a totally enclosed fan cooled (TEFC) design, IntelliFlo® VS-3050 is also the quietest pump ever built. At typical speeds you can barely notice it’s operating.
 
• Longer life further increases return on your investment:
  IntelliFlo® VS-3050’s permanent magnet motor produces far less heat and vibration than traditional induction motors. This not only results in less stress and wear on pump components, but also on other equipment. Furthermore, built-in diagnostics protect IntelliFlo® VS-3050 from the most common causes of premature pump failure – overheating, freezing, and voltage irregularities. The result is you can expect dramatically longer life and an even greater return on your investment.
 
• As your poolscape changes, so will IntelliFlo® VS-3050:
  with IntelliFlo® VS-3050 you can add equipment and features, without changing the pump. Add a solar system or water feature or change your filter. Just push a button to set the new, optimum speed to operate at the lowest energy use. Your savings are maintained even as your pool system changes.
 
• Unique ability to manage water features:
  finally, consider IntelliFlo® VS-3050’s unique ability to alter the performance of your water features. Want to add height to deck jets or fountains? Want to increase the water flow to waterfalls or a vanishing edge? Just increase or decrease pump speed with the touch of a
  button to adjust on demand. You manage the sights and sounds of your backgarden retreat while driving energy costs down to new lows.
