En Ok Pool Reform from this page within Pool filtration We want to tell you everything about: ESPA pool pump: variable speed for good water recirculation and filtration.

What type of pool pumps exist?

Pool motor models

Single speed pool pumps

  • Single speed pool pumps do more or less one thing, they pump your pool water through your system at a single constant speed.
  • The thing about single speed pool pumps is that the initial price is very attractive because they are quite affordable.
  • However, they are quite expensive to operate.
  • Now the only job they do, they do well, which is turning the water and providing a flow that allows your equipment to function properly.

Two speed pool pumps

  • Two-speed pumps operate at two fixed speeds, high and low, and require a separate device, such as an automation system, to adjust between the two speeds.
  • Since you can adjust between the two speeds, your energy use will decrease as long as you are running at the lowest speed.
  • Switching from your single-speed pump to a two-speed pump can save you up to 80% on your pool energy bill.

Variable speed pool pumps

  • All the  pumps de variable speed They are equipped with a permanent magnet motor and can operate in a wide variety of speeds in order to adapt to the specific needs of your Swimmingpool.

Difference between centrifugal pool pumps

pool centrifugal pump
pool centrifugal pump

What is the difference in work between single stage centrifugal pumps and multistage centrifugal pumps?

The greater the number of stages a pump has, the greater the discharge pressure at the outlet. 

Multistage centrifugal pumps are designed to create a higher pressure in each stage. However, the flow remains constant at all stages.

Each stage of a centrifugal pump has: rotor, diffuser, and directional return blades.

These three components are housed within a single housing unit. The head generated by a single stage centrifugal pump depends on the circumferential speed and the type of impeller used. The biggest drawback of centrifugal pumps is that the rotation speed cannot be altered.

As a result, this could become operationally inefficient in certain applications.

However, if the number of stages can be increased, this operational inefficiency can be overcome. This is where multistage centrifugal pumps come into play.
 
multistage centrifugal pool pump
multistage centrifugal pool pump

What are multistage centrifugal pumps?

  1. In a multistage pump, the transferred liquid flows through two or more impellers that are connected in a series.
  2. These pumps have several fluid chambers that are connected in series.
  3. The fluid enters the first chamber.
  4. At this stage, the fluid pressure is the same as the pressure in the suction line.
  5. Once the liquid leaves the first chamber, the pressure increases even more.
  6. This keeps repeating until the liquid reaches the last chamber.

Solutions to the most frequent problems with swimming pool motors

repair espa motors for swimming pools

ESPA pump does not start

Fault: spy pump does not start

Possible causes of the espa pump failure not starting:
  • Lack of water: If the tank or well runs out of water, the pump stops for safety. Check why the water supply has been cut off and solve the problem.
  • Air buildup between check valve and pump: Very often, when installing a submersible pump, the mistake is made of placing the check valve too close to the outlet. This causes air to accumulate between the valve and the pump, causing the pump to run out of water inside and lose driving force. It is advisable to place the check valve at a minimum distance of 1m from the pump.
  • The level probe: Probes tell the submersible pump when to start or stop. If a probe breaks, the pump stops working.
  • Condenser: It is a white cylinder that you will only find in pumps with single-phase electrical power. It is responsible for giving the necessary power to the engine to start. If the capacitor has broken down, you will have to replace it with another one that has the same characteristics. Make sure you have connected the two cables well.

Spy pump leaks water

 Pool pump leaks water

  • Check the seal of the pump motor seal.
  • Check the pool pipes.
  •    1. Poor condition of some element such as the pre-filter gasket, the stuffing box.
  •    2. Break or crack in any pipe.

Tip: Flush the cooling system thoroughly before installing a new water pump to remove contaminating particles. To do this, observe the rinsing procedures and means recommended by the manufacturer.

ESPA pool pump does not drive as it should

Possible causes of why a pump is not pumping the way it should:

  •    Blockage in the skimmer or pump prefilter.
  •    The impeller has a crack.

ESPA pool pump makes noise

In case VIBRATION NOISE occurs

  •    A small bearing that fixes the pump.

On the other hand, if the NOISE we hear is CAVITATION

  •    Jam or crack.

SHARP NOISE (like a screech)

  •    Bad behavior of the pump.

The ESPA pool motor does not stop

Possible causes why the espa silenplus pool pump does not stop:

  • The level probe: If the pump does not stop working, it may be because the level probe, which should give the stop order, is faulty.
  • The pressure switch is faulty or out of adjustment: If the pressure switch is out of adjustment, it will cause the pump to also work out of adjustment and not stop. You must tighten the pressure switch well, taking into account that almost all models incorporate two screws: one to regulate the pump start pressure and the other the stop pressure.
  • The hydrosphere membrane is perforated: When that happens, the pump starts and stops constantly. Checking the pressure in the hydrosphere will also detect the problem. Normally the membranes include a valve like those on bicycles to which a sump or a compressor can be attached.
  • There is a water leak in the house: The water pumps are prepared to provide pressure to the home whenever it is necessary, therefore, when there is a water leak, the pump works non-stop to continue maintaining the pressure in the circuit. This fault is the most difficult to control, since you must locate where the leak is and repair it. This will make the pump stop.

The ESPA pool pump has caught air

Possible cause of air entering the pump

  •  Damaged mechanical seal: Change the mechanical seal, although since it is an expensive repair, it is advisable to purchase a new pump.
