Component Description - Astralpool KEOPS Manual De Instrucciones Y Mantenimiento

To get the most out of the sand, clean it once a year using solid or liquid ASTRAL Filnet. It is recommended that
the sand be changed approximately every 3 years.
Winterizing:
In order to prevent damage to the filter over winter, the following operations should be performed:
• Backwash and rinse the filter as per the above instructions.
• Drain all the water out of the filter.
• Take the cover of the filter off so that it is well ventilated while not being used.
• When the filter is to be put back into operation, follow the START-UP instructions.
5.2. PUMP
Clean the prefilter basket regularly to avoid pressure drops. Do not hit the basket during the cleaning process
as this could potentially damage it.
If the pump stops, check that the motor's amp reading while in operation is the same or below that displayed
on the manufacturer's rating plate, failing which contact your nearest approved service engineer.
Drain the pump in the event that it will spend some time without running, i.e., mainly in cold countries where
there is also a risk of freezing temperatures.
To drain the pump, remove the air purge cap (10).
Every time the prefilter is opened, clean off any dirt on the seal and its housing to ensure the cover is watertight
when closed.
The pump components that are prone to wear and tear through routine use must be regularly replaced for the
pump to maintain good performance. The pump's perishable components and consumables are listed in the
table below along with their estimated service life.
