Pentair Semi-Automatic Backwash Controller for 06 Tank System

Pentair Stark™ Manual Semi-Automatic Backwash Controller (6-Tank System)

The Pentair Stark™ Manual Semi-Automatic Backwash Controller (Model CM200-06) is an industrial-grade, mechanically driven fluid-distribution control hub engineered specifically to manage the sequential backwashing of large, multi-vessel commercial sand filtration configurations containing exactly six separate filter tanks. Designed to streamline the intensive and labor-heavy maintenance schedules of massive commercial public pools, resort water parks, and large-scale institutional aquatic facilities, this semi-automatic system completely bypasses the need for complex internal electronics, fragile digital screens, or tedious on-site programming. Maintenance personnel can initiate a thorough backwash cycle simply by turning a heavy-duty mechanical selector dial, which utilizes ambient city water pressure or compressed air lines to sequentially actuate large, diaphragm-style face-piping backwash valves one single tank at a time. This controlled, consecutive six-stage progression guarantees that the main pool pump room maintains optimal, steady hydraulic pressure throughout the cycle, fluidizing individual sand beds smoothly to flush away trapped organic debris and particulate matter while actively shielding the main circulation pumps and heaters from sudden pressure loss or cavitation damage. Engineered specifically to survive the highly corrosive and humid atmospheres typical of commercial equipment rooms, the entire multiport distribution network is safely isolated within a non-corrosive, industrial-grade, NEMA-rated protective enclosure that keeps moisture and chemical vapors out. The dry shipping weight of the Pentair Stark Semi-Automatic Controller for a 6-Tank System is approximately 15 pounds (with a boxed shipping weight of roughly 25 to 26 pounds including structural mounting components), offering commercial operators an exceptionally rugged, low-profile, and fail-safe water management solution that delivers lifelong operational reliability without any reliance on electrical utility power.
