SECTION 6 – POOL PULSE
11
POOL PULSE®:
The Pool Pulse® is a flow meter that measures the volume of water flowing through
your Zodiac cleaner. It must be used to properly set the flow and can be used as a
diagnostic tool when the cleaner isn’t running properly.
HOW TO USE POOL PULSE®:
Pool Pulse can only be used if the filtration system is on.
1) Attach the Pool Pulse® to the first hose length (ie: the one attached to the pink
adaptor) and keep it under water as shown.
2) Ensure the Pool Pulse® is in the ideal range when viewed from the side
3) Keeping the hose under water, remove the Pool Pulse®
4) Submerge the cleaner head, and when the bubbles stop coming from the
extension pipe, attach the hose.
If the flow is in the low range, review the installation procedures. A dirty pool filter
or clogged basket is usually the main cause of low flow. Other types of hydraulic
problems may require a pool professional. If your pool has multiple skimmers and flow
is in the low range, close the skimmer the cleaner is not attached to.
If the flow is in the high range, review the installation procedures. Lower AD Flow
Valve setting to #1.
