Lacronite ECO-V Variable Speed Pump
Operating Guide
Lacronite ECO-V is equipped with the very latest 3 speed permanent magnet brushless DC
motor; Lacronite ECO-V is capable of lowering its energy usage & reducing its operating noise
levels.
Energy Saving
A pool fi ltration system does not require to be operated at a pump's maximum water fl ow rate.
In fact, your pool's fi ltration effi ciency improves at lower fl ow rates. As a pool's fi ltration cycle
occupies 99% of the run time of a pool pump, you can operate the Lacronite ECO-V on its low
(ECO) speed setting for a majority of its running time, leading to 80% savings in energy.
Lacronite ECO-V's Variable 3 speed options
Lacronite ECO-V has 3 factory set speed options ECO (Low), MED & HIGH but with the additional
advantage of fi ne adjustment in operating speed with 25 RPM increments, allowing fi ne tuning
of the pump's motor speed to perfectly match the fl ow requirements of the swimming pool,
maximising energy savings and minimising pump noise. The Lacronite ECO-V operates most
economically and with the lowest noise level using the ECO (Low) speed option.
The Lacronite ECO-V has a variable speed control, ranging from 1000 to 2850 RPM (revolutions
per minute). The pump's RPM can be viewed on the control panel display.
ECO (Low 1475 RPM): Filtration – 99% of the time
Most economical speed for the purpose of operating the pool's fi ltration system without any
ancillary pool equipment attached to the re-circulation system. E.g. suction cleaners.
Medium (2400 RPM): Automatic pool cleaners
This speed will enable the operation additional pool equipment for pool cleaning functions that
require the use of suction cleaners and low pressure spa jets.
High (2850 RPM): Vacuuming and backwash – 1% of the time
Power speed selection for use with backwashing granular media
fi lters (e.g. sand fi lters), manual pool vacuuming and operating
pool equipment with high water pressure requirements. E.g. water
features and spa jets.
Stop: This will cancel any variable adjustments made outside of the
above three factory settings.
Power: This will be lit whenever the pump is operating.
Error: If this is lit you will be required to contact your pool equipment
supplier/store for maintenance advise.
Note: The ECO (Low) speed option is specifi cally designed to
operate a standard pool fi ltration and recirculation system, but can
be fi ne tuned with 25 RPM increments to suit an individual pool's
fl ow requirement.
