Pentair IntelliFlo VS+SVRS 3 HP Pump, Variable Speed, 230V | EC-011057

The Pentair IntelliFlo VS+SVRS is the industry leader in energy efficiency, quiet operation, and safety technology. This 3.0 HP variable speed pump features an integrated Safety Vacuum Release System (SVRS), which provides an automatic shut-off when it detects a drain blockage, helping to prevent suction entrapment without the need for additional plumbing or external devices. By allowing you to dial in the exact flow rate needed for your pool, the EC-011057 can reduce energy costs by up to 90% compared to traditional single-speed or two-speed pumps, often paying for itself in utility savings within just a few seasons.

Features

Integrated Safety Vacuum Release System (SVRS): This advanced safety feature constantly monitors suction at the pump. If a blockage is detected, the SVRS automatically shuts the pump off in a fraction of a second, complying with the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act.

Unmatched Energy Efficiency: By running at lower speeds for longer periods, the IntelliFlo can save up to $1,500 per year in energy costs. Its permanent magnet motor (the same technology used in hybrid cars) operates much more efficiently than standard induction motors.

Whisper-Quiet Operation: At lower speeds, the IntelliFlo is so quiet you might not even know it’s running. It is roughly 4 times quieter than traditional pumps, making your backyard a more peaceful environment.

Full Programmability and Control: Features an easy-to-use onboard digital keypad with eight programmable speed settings and a built-in 24-hour clock. This allows you to set perfect speeds for filtration, heating, spa jets, and waterfalls.

Smart Automation Compatibility: Fully compatible with Pentair EasyTouch, IntelliTouch, and SunTouch control systems. It can also be controlled via the ScreenLogic2 interface, allowing you to manage your pool from a smartphone or tablet.

Extended Equipment Life: Because the pump moves water more slowly and at lower pressures, it puts less stress on your filter, salt chlorinator, and plumbing, extending the lifespan of your entire pool system.

Totally Enclosed Fan-Cooled (TEFC) Design: The motor is protected from the elements by a rugged, fan-cooled enclosure, preventing the common moisture and debris damage that kills standard open-style motors.

Notes

Important Installation Note

SVRS Calibration: To ensure the Safety Vacuum Release System works correctly, the pump must be calibrated to your pool's specific hydraulic profile during installation. It is highly recommended that a pool professional performs the initial setup to ensure the SVRS does not "nuisance trip" during normal operation.
