Thr ar thr dffrnt ways to dntfy whn th fltr nds backwashng: a) Th most accurat ndcator on pool systms wth a flow mtr s to backwash whn th flow dcrass 30% from orgnal (clan fltr) flow. For xampl, f th orgnal flow was 60 GPM, th fltr should b backwashd whn th flow s rducd by about 20 GPM (or 30%) to 40 GPM. b) A mor subjctv and lss accurat ndcator s to obsrv th amount of watr flowng from th flow drctonals locatd n th wall of th pool. Th fltr should b backwashd onc t s dtctd that th flow has bn rducd. c) Th most commonly usd but last accurat ndcator s to backwash whn th fltr gaug radng ncrass 10 ps ovr th ntal (clan fltr) radng. 2. It s mportant not to backwash th fltr solly on a tmd bass such as vry thr days. It s also mportant to not that backwashng too frquntly actually causs poor fltraton.

Est sstma prmramnt consst d una Bomba cntrífugo, un Fltro d Arna d alta vlocdad con válvula d control, una conccón d mangura y una bas para montar. Su Bomba cntrífugo s manjada por un motor lctrco. El motor sta drctamnt atado a la Bomba cntrífugo. Cuando l motor lctrco da vultas ocacona compulsvas vultas causando qu l agua crcul. El agua crcula haca l contndor para la plusa y cabllo y a través dl csto construdo para rcogr partculas más grands. Dspus la corrnt d agua ntra al cntro d la Bomba. La corrnt pasa por l cntrífugo y dntro dl dstrbudor staconaro, para salr por la msón d la Bomba, pasando por la conccón d mangura y por la valvúla d control dl Fltro d Arna. S acumula trra n l Fltro d Arna cuando la corrnt d agua pasa por la valvúla d control por la part d arrba dl Fltro y s drgda haca abajo sobr la suprfc d la cama dl Fltro d Arna. La trra s colccona n la cama d arna dl Fltro y la corrnt d agua lmpa pasa por la tubra d abajo d l Fltro haca la tubra d nmdo d la valvúla d control y haca la part d arrba dl Fltro d Arna. Dspus l agua lmpa rgrsa por l sstma d tubra d la pscna. La prson subra y la corrnt d la pscna sra más baja porqu la trra s acumulo n l Fltro d Arna. Evntualmnt, l Fltro d Arna s tapara con trra y sra ncsaro ralzar l procdmnto d lmpza d rvrsa ("Backwash") dl Fltro d Arna.
