    IntelliFlo VSF Optimal Efficiency

    Thanks for the info. Good stuff in that experiment MyAZPool. I might put my Fluke clamp meter on the pump line and see what my power readings are. I still find it odd that I get a reading of zero flow at 1400 rpm and you don't hit that until 800. Your pool is larger than mine. I have a spa...

    IntelliFlo Numbers Confusing.

    Very nice, thanks for sharing. (y)

    IntelliFlo VSF Optimal Efficiency

    Good to know. I had assumed there was a mechanical flow meter in there. That's kind of misleading. Thanks for the info!

    IntelliFlo VSF Optimal Efficiency

    From the IntelliFlo (ScreenLogic on PC). I had assumed it had a mechanical flow meter in there. Is that not the case?

    IntelliFlo VSF Optimal Efficiency

    Good to know. I've been using test strips but just ordered the K-2006C and K-1766 so I can have a more accurate picture of the water health as I make changes.

    IntelliFlo VSF Optimal Efficiency

    Not sure how I can determine this. It might also be that the flow meter doesn't register below 15 GPM? At 1500rpm I'm getting 15 GPM.

    IntelliFlo VSF Optimal Efficiency

    We have a pool cover on the pool at all times except when using the pool. So I'm not sure how much skimming is taking place. Good point on the dirty/clean filter for the IC40, I'll keep an eye on that.

    IntelliFlo VSF Optimal Efficiency

    Yes, but for consistency of measurement, I closed the diverter valve to pull from the skimmer and drains only. I was a bit surprised to see it drop off so quickly as well. I cleaned the DE filter at 30 days last week (new pool), so that shouldn't be an issue.

    IntelliFlo VSF Optimal Efficiency

    Finished putting our pool in last month, being an engineer I like the data available from the VSF. Wondered what the most efficient setup was for the pool, so using the speed, flow, and power readings from the ScreenLogic app on the PC, I made a psedu-efficiency curve. Note that this only...

    PC app adjust VSP??

    Is there any way to adjust VSF speeds for each circuit via the PC app? As others have said, the Android version is horrible. Trying to adjust speeds causes issues with other circuits. I can adjust the basic pump speed on PC, but for example, I can't create a skimmer routine or adjust the spa...
