IntelliFlo Overview
The IntelliFlo variable-speed pump control system offers pool and spa filter automation and advanced features that include energy conservation and programmable scheduled water features for your pool, spa, cleaner, waterfall, and other applications.
The IntelliFlo pump can adapt to any application up to 130 gallons per minute, you simply program IntelliFlo to suit the application. IntelliFlo then dials in the perfect operating conditions.
IntelliFlo can reduce energy cost by as much as 90% based on a pool size up to 15,000 gallons, one turn per day with a 24 hour cycle.
IntelliFlo constantly monitors water flow and electrical current to ensure that the filtration system is operating at peak efficiency. This can result in maximum energy efficiency savings never before possible – up to 90% over conventional pumps. The system protects against loss of prime or impedance of flow, under and over voltage situations, and thermal overload or freezing.
With IntelliFlo there’s no need for pump curves and hydraulic calculations to determine the right pump for the job. Just set the program for your pool size and desired turnover, and IntelliFlo does the rest.

IntelliFlo Motor Assembly
The IntelliFlo three-phase six-pole motor operates at 3450 RPM (at 92% efficiency) and 400 RPM (at 90%). The motor assembly is continually cooled by an external fan. Dual seals on the motor shaft and at the fan assembly seal the entire motor from any moisture entering the motor assembly. For added protection, a slinger located in front of the main shaft seal assists in slinging water away from the shaft opening in the flange.

IntelliFlo Drive Assembly and Control Panel
The IntelliFlo drive assembly consists of an operator control panel and the system electronics that drive the 230 VAC single phase (260 VAC~170 VAC) motor. The drive microprocessor controls the motor by changing the frequency of the current it receives together with changing the voltage to control the rotational
Operator Control Panel Features
§ Backwash and Rinse — Informs the user when and how to backwash filter media
§ Vacuum — Can be preset using duration and flow parameters to save energy
§ Filter — Allows pump to run at peak efficiency, saving users up to 90% in energy cost, based on a pool size up to 15,000 gallons, one turn per day with a 24 hour cycle
§ Feature — Ten feature modes can be programmed to control filtration duration, start and stop time, and frequency for cleaners, water features, spas, and waterfalls
§ Manual — Allows the user to override all programming and run the pump using RPM or flow (GPM) control parameters
