Frequently Asked Questions - S310SLBTL HAYWARD

How to install the S310SLBTL filter?

Place the filter on a clean, level surface, at a maximum height of 1.5 m above water level. Ensure that the piping, valve, and drain plug are accessible. Fill the tank one-third with water, then add sand (2/3 to 3/4 of the height) after protecting the diffuser. Connect the pipes: pump to 'PUMP', return to 'RETURN', waste to 'WASTE'.

How much sand should be put in the filter?

Fill the filter with special pool sand to 2/3 to 3/4 of the tank height. It is recommended to put a layer of gravel (3-5 mm grain size) up to the level of the laterals, then the sand. The exact quantity depends on the model, refer to the manual.

How to perform a backwash?

Stop the pump. Set the valve to 'BACKWASH'. Restart the pump and let it run until the water becomes clear in the sight glass (about 2 minutes). Stop the pump, then set the valve to 'RINSE' for one minute. Finally, set the valve back to 'FILTER' and restart the pump.

When should the filter be cleaned?

Clean the filter when the pressure indicated by the gauge exceeds 10 PSI (0.7 bar) above the initial pressure (clean filter). Then perform a backwash. If the pressure remains high after several backwashes, check the condition of the sand or laterals.

What to do if the pressure is too high?

Too high pressure indicates that the filter is clogged. Perform a backwash as described in the manual. If the problem persists, check that the suction and return valves are open, and that the pump and skimmer pre-filters are clean.

How to winterize the S310SLBTL filter?

Completely drain the filter by unscrewing the drain plug at the base of the tank. Do not replace the plug during winter. Leave the valve handle between two positions. Also drain and winterize the pump according to its instructions.

Which valve position to use for normal filtration?

For normal filtration (10-14 hours per day), set the valve to 'FILTER'. Make sure all suction and return valves are open before starting the pump.

Can I use non-Hayward original parts?

No, use only genuine Hayward spare parts. Using non-conforming parts can damage the unit and void the warranty. Contact your Hayward dealer for any parts.

How to start the pump for the first time?

Check that all connections are tight and the sand quantity is correct. Set the valve to 'BACKWASH'. Open all suction and return valves. Start the pump and ensure water circulates. After 2 minutes, stop the pump, switch to 'RINSE' for 1 minute, then to 'FILTER'.

What to do in case of persistent malfunction?

Consult your Hayward dealer. Do not perform repairs yourself without prior agreement from Hayward. The 2-year warranty only covers manufacturing defects, not damage due to freezing or chemicals. Keep your invoice for any claim.

You have just become the owner of a sand filter, its base and its valve.

OPERATION

Your filtration system uses a special sand designed to trap impurities in the pool water. The sand is poured into the tank and acts as a permanent filtration system. The pump draws in the unfiltered pool water, which contains impurities in suspension, and feeds it to the multi-way control valve. When the water flows through the sand, the impurities are trapped there and the water that returns to your pool is filtered.

INSTALLATION

1. Filter location

Provide a clean, level location The top of the filter must be no more than 1.5m above the water level. Position the filter so that the pipes, valve and drain plug are easily accessible. Servicing and wintering will then be easier.

2. Pump assembly

Attach the pump and its support to the filter according to the manufacturer's instructions.

3 SIDE filter (valve on the side, Fig. 1):

Install the valve, taking care to ensure that the O-rings are correctly seated and screw in the nuts by hand until the valve/ filter assembly is airtight.

Remove the cover and fill the filter with water up to one third. Cover the diffuser to prevent sand from entering it. Then fill the filter with the quantity of sand indicated (2/3 to 3/4 of the height) and remove the diffuser protection. Clean off any remaining sand and put the cover back in place. Connect the pipes to the valve. The pump must be connected to the "PUMP" input, the water return to the "RETURN" output and the drain to the "WASTE" output.

Note 1: Do not use force when screwing the connection end-pieces into the valve fittings.

Note 2: Cover the male threads with teflon tape.

Note 3: We advise you to put a layer of gravel (grain size 3 to 5mm ) up to the level of the laterals (covering them) and then insert the filtering media up to 2/3 to 3/4 of the filter height. The layer of gravel ensures better drainage and facilitates backwashing.

STARTING UP

IMPORTANT: ALWAYS STOP THE PUMP BEFORE OPERATING THE MULTI-WAY VALVE.

1. Check that all connections are tight and that the filter contains just the right amount of sand.

2. Set the valve to "BACKWASH". Always lower the handle before turning.

3. Start the pump as indicated by the manufacturer's instructions. Check that water is flowing normally within the circuit. WARNING: All suction and discharge valves must be open when the pump is started. Otherwise, there is a risk of damage to property, serious injury, or death.

Once the water is flowing smoothly, let the pump run for at least another 2 minutes. This backwash is recommended to eliminate any impurities or fine particles from the filtering sand.

1. Stop the pump and set the valve to "RINSE". Restart the pump and let it run until the water becomes clear in the valve circulation sightglass (about a minute).

2. Stop the pump and set the valve to "FILTER". Restart the pump and filtering will start.

Adjust the inlet and outlet valves for the desired water flow.

1. Carefully note the pressure reading at that time and the position of the needle on the pressure gauge. As the filter operates, impurities are retained and the pressure increases in the tank.

When it exceeds the initial pressure (clean filter) by 10 PSI (0.7 bars or kg / cm^2 ), the filter must be backwashed.

Note 1: When your pool water is cleaned for the first time, it may be necessary to backwash the filter frequently: it is likely to contain a significant quantity of impurities.

Note 2: Clean the strainers of the pump and skimmers regularly to ensure trouble-free operation of your filtration system.

USE ONLY HAYWARD Genuine REPLACEMENT PARTS

Note 3: Installations including heaters or cleaning systems with nozzles or tentacles protruding from the walls are highly sensitive to pressure surges because they operate at high pressure. The installer must do everything necessary to prevent pressure surges in the installation.

VALVE AND FILTER FUNCTIONS

FILTER

Set the valve to "Filter" for normal filtration (10 to 14 hours a day).

BACKWASH

For cleaning the filter when the filter pressure gauge rises 10 PSI (0.7 bars or kg/cm^2 ) above start-up (clean) pressure. Stop the pump, set the valve to "Backwash". Run the pump until the water in the sight glass is clear. Stop the pump about 2 minutes later and set the valve to "Rinse".

RINSE

With the valve set to "Rinse", run the pump for about one minute. This evacuates the dirty backwash water to a drain, not the pool. Stop the pump, set back to "Filter", and restart.

WASTE

The water is discharged directly into the sewer without passing through the filter: to lower the pool water level and directly eliminate very dirty water when using the vacuum.

RECIRCULATE

The water bypasses the filter, for rapid dispersion of chemicals or for massive chlorination.

CLOSED

Cuts off circulation between the filter and the pump.

NEVER USE THIS POSITION WITH THE PUMP RUNNING.

WINTERIZING

1. Completely drain tank by unscrewing drain cap at base of filter tank. Leave cap off during winter.
2. Rotate and leave the valve handle set between any positions.
3. Drain and winterize pump according to pump instructions.
