Astral Viron XT Series

Description

EFFICIENCY FOR ALL

The challenge for swimming pool filtration design is that for 90% of the time, effective filtration and circulation of the pool water is achieved with a gentle flow rate of 120 to 200 litres a minute. Occasionally however, vacuuming, filter cleaning, and specific applications such as water features, spa jets and in floor cleaning require higher flow rates and pressures. The Viron XT offer speed settings from 600 RPM up to 3600 RPM so that the perfect flow rate can be selected to suit whatever your pump is being used for. The P320XT is suitable for most home applications, however, for large pools or demanding applications, the P520XT provides a power house performance.

SIMPLICITY OF OPERATION

Unlike so many complicated appliances today, Viron XT has been carefully designed for ease of operation. Three programmed speeds are factory preset and will suit most pools and most applications. Each speed however, is able to be adjusted with a simple press of an up or down button. Operation is intuitive, with specific design input from the non IT generation to make the Viron XT as user friendly as possible.

UNIQUE HIGH PERFORMANCE FEATURES

Each time your pump strainer basket is emptied, the pump has to be primed and air expelled from the filtration and pipe work system. This can take several minutes. Viron XT fast prime mode operates the pump at higher than normal speeds during this priming period and reduces the time it takes to expel the air in the pump and system by more than 30%. This reduces wear on the pump components and saves time. Once the pump is fully primed it automatically reverts back to the last operating speed selected. When operating at high pressures driving spa jets, in floor cleaning systems or some water features, Overdrive mode will increase and govern the speed of the pump to achieve truly high flow and pressures. The pump will never draw excessive power but also ensure your pool system is operating at its best. AstralPool’s Viron XT pumps are incredibly efficient, reducing the lifetime pool operating and ownership costs while offering incredibly high flow and pressure when required to meet the most demanding applications. A full variable speed controller allows you to tailor the flow rate to suit your pool and filtration and unique features such as overdrive and fast prime make the XT the most versatile variable speed pump on the market. These two unique features in the new Viron XT range offers the most flexible and adaptable pump on the market and will often allow you to save money by choose a smaller model that will out perform other larger model pumps.

ENERGY SAVINGS

Increasing or decreasing the speed of a pump simply changes the flow rate by the same rate. However, the actual energy used to change the speed and flow varies dramatically. Halve the speed of your pump and the flow rate will also halve but, the energy consumed drops by more than 85%. compared to conventional single speed pumps, the Viron XT pump will save between $700 and $1,200 every year in operating costs.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY

The Viron XT range takes new steps forward in environmentally friendly pumps. In fact, a conventional single speed pump uses more energy, and is the cause of more Co2 emissions than almost any other household appliance. Viron XT pumps reduce energy consumption by up to 90% and effectively reduce greenhouse emissions by up to 90% (when power is supplied from coal fired power plants).

BUILT FOR THE TOUGHEST CONDITIONS ON EARTH

Your Viron XT Pump is a significant investment. Each individual component is carefully designed and selected for maximum life span in the tough Aussie climate. 316 stainless steel hardware, robust engineering plastics and high quality silicone seals create a pump that lasts. Even the motor and sophisticated electronics are carefully designed and manufactured to be easily serviced and repaired.
