摘要:
A method of monitoring a low water volume within of a water circulation system is disclosed that includes detecting an auxiliary measurement associated with an ancillary device fluidly coupled with a reservoir of water in a water circulation system and then determining whether the ancillary device is performing under a low water volume operation. The low water volume operation is based upon a comparison between at least the detected auxiliary measurement of the ancillary device and a condition associated with a performance of the ancillary device under the low water volume operation.

Communications capabilities are supplied to components of pool water recirculation systems, even if the components lack electrical power or supply wires. Capabilities may be furnished by wireless RF devices that connect to existing fittings or ports of the components, for example. The devices are configured to obtain desired information relating to the components (or the water within them) and transmit the information remotely for processing or consideration.

A pumping system for moving water of a swimming pool includes a water pump, a variable speed motor, and a filter arrangement in fluid communication with the pump. The pumping system can also include means for determining a load value indicative of an unclogged filter that permits movement of water through the filter arrangement, means for determining a load value indicative of a clogged filter that inhibits movement of water through the filter arrangement, and means for determining a performance value of the pumping system. The pumping system also includes means for determining a relative loading value of the filter arrangement, means for displaying the relative loading value, and means for controlling the motor in response to the relative loading value. In one example, the load values and performance value can include flow pressure values. A method of moving water of a swimming pool is also disclosed.

Embodiments of the invention provide a pumping system for at least one aquatic application controlled by a user. The pumping system includes a pump, a variable speed motor, a memory, and a controller. The pumping system includes a user interface with a first speed button, a second speed button, an increase button, and a decrease button. The buttons provide an actuate and release operation, a first touch and hold operation, and a second touch and hold operation. The controller operates the variable speed motor at a substantially constant speed based on a current speed value selected by the user using the buttons.

A drain sump includes a secondary chamber for providing an alternate source of water for the main drain to pull water from, thereby limiting the suction force created when the flow of water is obstructed. In a preferred embodiment, the two chambers within the drain sump are partitioned by a septum wall, which provides a passage for a drain pipe extension at the center of the septum wall and further includes a plurality of venting channels for ideal water flow between the two chambers. Each chamber is in open fluid flow communication with the pool water via the drain grate. Relief hole passages are included on the drain pipe extension for providing open fluid communication between the secondary chamber and the water flow passage. The drain pipe extension may further include two 90 degree bends for restricting access to the water flow passage of the drain pipe extension.

A pumping system for moving water of a swimming pool includes a water pump, a variable speed motor, and an arrangement for controlling the variable speed motor. The pumping system further includes an auxiliary device operably connected to the arrangement for controlling, and an arrangement for providing two-way communication between the arrangement for controlling and the auxiliary device. The arrangement for controlling is capable of receiving a parameter from the auxiliary device through the arrangement for providing two-way communication. In one example, the arrangement for controlling is capable of independently controlling the variable speed motor without receipt of a parameter from the auxiliary device. In addition or alternatively, the arrangement for controlling is operable to selectively alter operation of the motor based upon the parameter. In addition or alternatively, the arrangement for controlling is configured to optimize a power consumption of the variable speed motor over time based upon the parameters received. A method for controlling the pumping system is also provided.
摘要:
The invention concerns a dual pump, comprising an electric motor (18) including a drive shaft, the shaft including, at each of its axial ends, a shaft output (21, 22), and two pump impellers, each shaft output driving a respective pump impeller, one first of the pump impellers (23) operating at low pressure and high flow rate, and the second of the pump impellers (30) operating at higher pressure and lower flow rate. The water pumped by the second pump impeller (30) is drawn proximate the outlet of the first pump impeller (23) and returns to the inlet of the second pump impeller. The drawing point is situated in a low pressure pump chamber, upstream of the low pressure outlet (16). The invention is applicable to swimming pool maintenance.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a swimming pool water pump having connection couplings for connection to fluid flow piping for the purpose of circulating a fluid, preferably for a swimming pool or for a swimming bath, at the fluid suction orifice of the pump and/or at the fluid delivery orifice of the pump, said pump having at least one said connection coupling integrated into the pump at the said delivery orifice or at the said suction orifice, said coupling having a spherical ball ending in an inclined cylindrical tubular end-piece suitable for inter-fitting with the end of a said fluid flow pipe, so that the axis of said cylindrical end-piece of said spherical ball coupling can pivot in all directions through an angle α varying from −αmax to +αmax relative to the axis of said delivery orifice or of said suction orifice of the pump, where αmax is at least equal to 20°, preferably lies in the range 25° to 60°, and more preferably lies in the range 30° to 45°.
