Can this solar device be hooked up to a submersible pump that is hung into the pool rather than using the big pool pump so that I can run the solar collector when the pool filter pump is not turned on?

yes, that can be done, just remember if you connect the sump pump directly to the solar feed then you should also setup the solar return to just hang over the side. it will create two separate independent loops, one for the filter and one for the solar heater.

Yes, all you have to do is wire of the power supply to your pool timer. PS you'll probably want to use watertight connections.

yes you can , but this pump is too big for that kind of job . i think you are better off with an electric submerge one.

Yes, you can, and it is the better solution then through the scimmer. Most likely you have to use the valve.It is actually easy to set up. You probably have already tried all possible configurations ;) good luck and a clean pool !

I would venture that the answer is "yes." The pump is both powerful and intelligent; it's easily capable of exceeding the pressure rating of my DE filter (80 psi). As always, check with the manufacturer but if you can determine what the range of flow rates are for your solar assembly (min/max gpm) you can then easily program the pump to maintain those flow rates.

Well the pump is a submersible pump so if you have it plugged into a place that the plug is protected from the environment I do not see why not.

If it's not mounted you could possibly use it somewhere else, the disconnect from the solar panel is beyond the mounting plate. It does not need to be connected to the solar panel to work.

Yes. Our pool is a similar size. Working well and we have saved $ on power costs.

Yes! You can hook up most any twelve volt device to these. the Vout is approx 18V. Just make sure you have them in parallel, not series, for in series the V(out) would be 36V. A submersible pump will work very well at 18V. It would be better to have the pump powered by batteries which act as a "sink" to obviate voltage fluctuations and other circumstances, such as cloud cover obtructing the panels. The panels will then serve to charge the batteries (RV or deep-cycle). I use a bank of eight 6v golf-cart batteries which are wired together to produce 12v. But for your need here you would not need such a number. Yes! You can hook up most any twelve volt device to these. the Vout is approx 18V.

Yes, you can run the pool filter pump all day but it's not necessary. I have my pump on a timer and run my pump for 12 hours in the Summer. The Salt Water system must run while the pool filter pump is running or you'll get a "flow" error.

Yes, but do the math on the flow ratings to determine how long it will take. Also consider that the electrical cord is permanently connected and is only a certain length (check specs). You may not be able to place it on the bottom of the pool because the junction to the extension chord would be under water so you would have to lower the pump as the water line lowers. Make sense?

Doubtful not unless you want to change the software configuration. Try inyopools website which has lots of info, make sure you know the gallonage of your pool.

You can use this with above ground swimming pools, as long as the filter flow rate is less than 4000 gallons per hour. It's quite simple to install with intex pump and filter, but if it's not, you will need a few things from home depot. I would suggest two 2" union fittings (slip), Two 2" female adapters (one sif s is threaded the other smooth), and some 2" elbows will be needed. For more info email me hookdup88@gmail

This is just the earth filter. The pump is separate. But there is no reason that it would not work for your pool.
230931
Yes, you can do that. You can also bypass the float switch and run the pump manually by unplugging the pump power cord from the piggyback plug on the float switch and running it directly to the power outlet.

Hi you can use 1/2 inch carflex or 1/2 inch cable clamps and run conduit from your "time clock" or "circulation pump switch's load connection" to the unit, and use 12 guage wires for power. (excess pool light cable works a treat) and remember it is factory wired for 220 volts. connect the wires with wire nuts on unit end pull on wires to make sure they are tight, wrap in electrical tape and connect solid copper ground from units chassis to your pool ground.

No. The power goes right from the round solar collector to the little pump.
