2. Налаштування та встановлення
Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance and longevity of your Astralpool Aster 99- Sand Filter. Ensure all connections are secure and watertight.
2.1. Вибір місця
Choose a level, solid surface for the filter, preferably close to the pool pump and the pool itself. The location should be protected from direct sunlight and adverse weather conditions, and allow sufficient space for maintenance and operation.
2.2. Фільтр в зборі

3. Інструкція з експлуатації
The multi-port valve controls the filter's operation. Always turn off the pump before changing the valve position to prevent damage.
3.1. Valve Positions
- ФІЛЬТР: Normal filtration mode. Water flows through the filter media and returns to the pool.
- Зворотне промивання: Cleans the filter media by reversing water flow. Water is discharged through the waste line.
- ЗМІКАННЯ: Used after backwashing to settle the filter media and flush out any remaining debris from the waste line.
- ВІДХОДИ/ЗЛИВ: Bypasses the filter, sending water directly to the waste line. Useful for vacuuming heavy debris or lowering pool water level.
- РЕЦИРКУЛЯЦІЯ: Bypasses the filter, circulating water directly back to the pool. Useful for chemical distribution without filtration.
- ЗАЧИНЕНО: Shuts off all flow to the filter and pool. Use for pump maintenance or when the filter is not in use.
3.2. Початковий запуск
- Ensure the filter is filled with sand and all connections are secure.
- Set the multi-port valve to the "BACKWASH" position.
- Turn on the pump and backwash for 2-3 minutes, or until the water in the sight glass (if present) runs clear.
- Вимкніть насос.
- Set the valve to the "RINSE" position.
- Увімкніть насос і промийте протягом 30-60 секунд.
- Вимкніть насос.
- Set the valve to the "FILTER" position.
- Turn on the pump. The filter is now operating in normal filtration mode.
4. Технічне обслуговування
Regular maintenance ensures efficient filtration and extends the life of your Astralpool Aster 99- Sand Filter.
4.1. Backwashing
Backwash the filter when the pressure gauge reading is 0.2-0.3 kg/cm² (3-5 psi) above the clean filter's starting pressure, or when pool water clarity decreases.
- Вимкніть насос.
- Встановіть багатопортовий клапан у положення "ЗВОРОТНЕ ПРОМИВАННЯ".
- Turn on the pump and backwash until the water in the sight glass runs clear (typically 2-3 minutes).
- Вимкніть насос.
- Set the valve to "RINSE".
- Увімкніть насос і промийте протягом 30-60 секунд.
- Вимкніть насос.
- Set the valve to "FILTER".
- Увімкніть насос, щоб відновити нормальну фільтрацію.
4.2. Підготовка до зими (якщо застосовується)
In colder climates, proper winterization is essential to prevent freeze damage.
- Drain all water from the filter tank by opening the drain valve.
- Remove the manometer and store it in a warm, dry place.
- Set the multi-port valve handle between two positions (e.g., between "FILTER" and "CLOSED") to relieve pressure on the internal seal.
- Disconnect all plumbing and store pipes if necessary.
