The BESGO five-way automatic valve d75 mm is a premium control fitting for automating the backwashing of a filter tank with sand or another filter medium. The valve combines five hydraulic positions (filtration, backwash, rinse, bypass and closed) controlled by a single 3/2 solenoid valve, 230 V, connected to the filtration control system.
A nominal flow rate of 45 m³/h and a pressure loss of just 0.3 bar ensure that the valve does not cause hydraulic throttling even with the high-performance pumps used in large pools. The 270 mm connection pitch corresponds to the standard dimensions of a filter tank for the d75 diameter.
Automating the backwash extends the service life of the filter media, reduces the water consumption needed for washing and eliminates errors caused by human operation. BESGO valves are a recognised industry standard for automating pool filtration in hotels, water parks and larger private pools.
