5. OPERATION
5.1 REMOTE
mode
This is the default operating mode.
The pump carries out the most appropriate function
considering the position of the filter valve. (See fig. 3)
In FILTRATION position:
Filtration Plus
function
In BACKWASH position:
Backwash Plus
func-
tion
In CLOSED position: pump stopped.
In any of the other positions: the pump operates
at 100% power.
When you operate the valve control, the pump
stops automatically to make the valve movement
easier.
In any intermediate position, the pump remains
stopped.
To change the working mode, simply move the
valve to the desired position.
To prevent accidental operation, the electron-
ic response is delayed by 1 second. The
flashing red LED indicates that proper com-
munication has been achieved.
Move the valve gently.
WARNING: the valve configuration must cor-
respond to the 6 standard positions,
according to figure 3.
For other valve configurations, contact your tech-
nical service.
5.2 MANUAL mode
When you press the
M
key,
Silenplus
ignores the
ControlSystem
signal and runs one of the pre-set
functions:
The MAN LED comes on.
The pump starts up at a fixed, programmable speed.
The standard setting is 2,300 RPM (40 Hz). This is
what is known as the MIXED CYCLE (MISC.
CYCLE).
If you press the
F
key, it runs through the various
Silenplus
functions in sequence.
Between each function, the pump stops to allow
valve movement or other operations.
The sequence is:
1. Mixed cycle (MISC. CYCLE).
2. Stop.
3.
Filtration Plus
.
4. Stop.
5. Backwash Plus
.
6. Stop.
7. Mixed cycle...
The lit leds indicates the function selected at all
times.
When you press the
M
button again, you leave
Manual mode to go back to Remote.
5.3 No water fault and retries.
In
Filtration Plus
mode, the system is regularly
monitored to check that the pump is not operating
without water.
If
Silenplus
detects the pump is working without
water it stops the motor.
The system will attempt to start up again after 1', 5',
15' and 1 hour (Fig. 5). If the retries fail,
Evopool
will remain in permanent fault mode.
An LED sequence indicates the fault status. (See
section 7)
To interrupt the retry cycle or to restart from perma-
nent fault mode, press the
F
key.
5.4 System status
Espa offers installers and users the
EspaEvopool
application for monitoring the system status and
interacting with
Silenplus
.
They must have a Smartphone with
Bluetooth
connectivity
and
install
the
application
EspaEvopool
available
in
PlayStore
or
AppStore
.
With this app, it is possible to switch between
Man-
ual/Remote
modes and use all functions.

Filterwatch FUNCTION
6.1 Activation.
Filterwatch
should only be activated after carrying
out the initial maintenance work, making sure that
the filter is completely clean.
To activate
Filterwatch
:
- Press "M" for 5 seconds.
- The "
Filtration Plus
" LED will blink 3 times.
When it is activated,
Filterwatch
will begin a 3 mi-
nute learning period during which the pump will
operate at 100%. Do not interrupt this process.
The correct activation of the
Filterwatch
function is
indicated by the
Filtration Plus
LED blinking slowly
.
6.2 Auto-adaptation.
With
Filterwatch
activated, the pump operation
during the
Filtration Plus
phase will adjust itself to
the degree of clogging of the filter.
It is normal to note a gradual increase in the rota-
tional speed of the pump.
6.3 Filter saturation warning.
When the system detects that it has reached its
saturation level, the pump will request that a filter
cleaning cycle be run.
- The
Backwash Plus
LED will blink quickly.
- If you have the
EspaEvopool
application, you will
receive the corresponding warning when the
pump is connected.
After cleaning the filter, the warnings will disappear
and the system will return to its normal status.
