Can ic40 be actuated when motor is running ? Thinking that might be a simpler option

Have the option and tried that. The Ic40 came alive for a sec and then went back. Is there a wiring diagram to see if transformer is loaded to pump ? Thanks, Sam

@Jimrahbe bought a CaliMar VS pump 3hp, but its not compatible with EasyTouch. Don't have ScreenLogic RE: Easy Touch, didnt change anything. its running on its own schedule (independent of the pump): 7am-7pm Pump + Intellichlor (of course now there is no pump). could buy the calimar...

Hi, Recently my Intelliflow Pump died, decided to change to a different brand pump not compatible with easytouch. now when the pump is running (independent of EasyTouch), i want to activate the ic40, so I am running the easyTouch on the same schedule as before. what i see is that ic40 comes...

yeah and they are not cheap these days!

Based on my pool size can I use 01106x series ? The 011065 is 1299 vs 011077 being in 1800+ range

Thanks @mknauss @wireform @PoolStored for all your help Any comparisons between whisperflow vs intelliflow3 ? Based on my needs (simple 20k gallon pool) i don’t know if i need another intelliflow3

There is no salvaging this ? Maybe I’m in denial

As I was looking to undo the screws saw some gaps on the wet side and also corrosion. Attached are the results. Final result - shaft is broken Seems water leaked over the season and ultimately froze in winters.

Will do. Fingers crossed.

thanks. Does that mean if the shaft has failed, i would need a new shaft or a new impeller. I hope its the latter. i still dont know why it would fail. when i closed the pool, the pump was running no issues and we made sure the water is taken out of both the chambers

Tried it but the impeller didnt move. Will try to open the wet end and see

Thanks. But is this a common issue ? I’m on year 4 and the pump has been running flawlessly

Is there a video that shows what that would look like ? I’m DIY person but scared to open this

There is one for drain and one for skimmer. Both are open . More importantly the water in the machine doesn’t move at all. Even the basket doesn’t get empty. If the basket went empty and there was no water I would have looked for blockages. Hope that helps

For those looking at this thread ever it’s 3/32 Allen wrench it moved in both directions started the machine after making one turn in each direction. But no water movement at all. The motor seems to run ok. But I shut if off quickly to ensure there is no damage. Any thoughts ?

@PoolStored Tried moving the impeller it doesn’t move The tip of my fingers barely touch the impeller but couldn’t move it. Not sure how loose it should be in either direction. Is there a way to move it without opening the machine ? Thanks in advance

Just put everything together on my Intelliflo VS pump. Started priming process by letting the hose put water in the basket for 5 mins. Closed the lid and started the pump. Now motor seems running, but basket is not even getting empty and water not moving at all, forget priming. Is this an...

Added almost one gallon. Its close to 8 now... will let FC come down and then update again. Thank you so much for the help.

TA was 60. Added to the main thread to help others.

So....... Just opened pool my Ph was 7.0 (with TA of 60) and to bring it to 7.8 the app said 6lbs of boarax or 3lb of washing soda. Not sure what got into me, but I thought each of my boxes were 1lb and put in 4 x boxes or 20 mule borax and 1 x box of washing soda. As i was throwing away the...

@kevinskii , Yes saw that too... but i am not really sure where this shaft is. i will try to look tomorrow morning. @Killer95Stang , yes, the engineer brain, but also knowing that it wanst there before just draws my attention to it.

So i cleaned the pump yesterday... there wasnt anything maybe small strand of pollen or two. i've been trying to run with a sock on skimmer to keep it clean and the noise disappeared for then. however, when the pump started again today, it had the same noise after about an 1 or 2 hrs of...

@kevinskii thanks for the quick post. was the sound like this : ? mine is very low in intensity compared this

My pump is a pretty new. This is my second season with all new everything (pump, filter, liner, automation etc). I went out today to clean the skimmer basket and heard a chriping noise and soon realized its coming from the pump. When i increase the RPM of the pump (1700s), the frequency of...
