Filter EC-180009","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Pentair Stark™ CS400™ Commercial Semi-Automatic Backwash Controller for a 3-Tank System (Model CS400-03) is an advanced, industrial-grade multi-vessel automation hub specifically custom-engineered to manage the high-volume sequential backwashing of three-vessel commercial sand filtration configurations. Designed for mid-to-large scale public swimming pools, community water parks, and municipal aquatic centers utilizing Stark™ or THS Series® horizontal sand filters, this sophisticated control unit eliminates the intense labor, critical timing errors, and physical risks associated with manually operating multi-tank filter batteries. \u003cspan class=\"citation-293 citation-end-293\"\u003ePowered by integrated Acu-Trol® intelligence, the CS400 allows facility operators to safely initiate a comprehensive, multi-stage backwash cycle across all three filter vessels at the single touch of a button, via a programmed external signal from a master room controller (such as the Acu-Trol AK600), or through an optional differential pressure switch.\u003csup class=\"superscript\" data-turn-source-index=\"1\"\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Once triggered, the unit's internal, motorized multiport pressure distribution valve automatically sequences the entire process, routing regulated city water pressure or compressed air (ideally 35 to 40 PSI) to mechanically actuate the large, diaphragm-style hydraulic face-piping valves one individual tank at a time. This progressive, one-by-one execution ensures stable hydraulic balancing across the commercial pump room, preventing sudden pressure drops while incorporating critical equipment safeguards—such as a built-in \"Fireman's Delay\" heater cool-down relay and main circulation pump interlocks to prevent catastrophic mechanical cavitation, water hammer, or thermal shock. The hardware is housed entirely within a heavy-duty, weather-resistant, and NEMA-rated non-corrosive enclosure engineered to withstand humid, chemical-laden environments, and it features an intuitive, backlit LCD status display alongside dedicated LED indicators for real-time monitoring of saved backwash history logs and diagnostic alarms.
