Before you get started...
You’re about to discover just how simple it is to program the IntelliPro VS-3050 Variable
Speed Pump.Within minutes, the IntelliPro VS-3050 will be ready to:
• Slash energy costs by 30% to 90% or more
• Reduce noise to half a human whisper
• Automatically adjust for voltage irregularities and overheating
Four simple speed settings enable the IntelliPro VS-3050
to deliver the exact flow needed for a variety of tasks,
such as filtration, spa, automatic cleaner, and waterfall.
You’ll be able to change or add equipment without having to change or add pumps,
because all you’ll need to do is program the new speed settings to maintain peak system
performance. IntelliPro VS-3050 is the one pump that can serve almost every application,
and do it more efficiently than ever before.

How is this incredible performance possible?
The IntelliPro VS-3050 is the first pump to use a permanent magnet synchronous
motor (PMSM). But the real secret is the IntelliPro’s four settable and adjustable
speeds (from 400 to 3450 GPM). That’s how you optimize pump speed for the most
efficient flow possible.
While the IntelliPro VS-3050 is incredibly advanced, it’s easy to install and program.
This guide will lead you through the set-up process. Let’s get started!

Warnings
Before you begin programming, please read the important
safety warnings below.
• Never go inside the drive enclosure. The capacitor bank holds a 230 volt charge,
even if there is no power to the unit.
• Do not submerse the IntelliPro VS-3050.
• The IntelliPro VS-3050 is capable of 160 GPM or 104 feet of head. Use caution when
installing and programming to limit pump performance when plumbed with old or
questionable equipment.
• IntelliPro VS-3050 can be wired for constant power, or to the load side of a mechanical
time clock.
• Always stop IntelliPro VS-3050 and disconnect the communication cable before
performing maintenance.

Wiring
The IntelliPro VS-3050 should be wired line side, i.e. directly to a 220V to 240V circuit
breaker with a minimum 20 amp rating or other source of “line” voltage supply.
IntelliPro is designed for 230V applications only. 115V circuits will not operate and
could cause damage to the pump. If IntelliPro is connected to a mechanical time clock
or other mechanical on/off circuitry, e.g. household light switch with a 20 amp minimum
rating, then “load” side voltage is acceptable.
Use of a UL listed 3⁄4 inch FIP LB (line box) is recommended for pump side electrical
connection.
When wiring the IntelliPro to a mechanical timer or on/off switch, the included RS485
Data Communication Cable Part #340122 will not be necessary.
Plumbing
When plumbing the IntelliPro VS-3050, a 4 inch gap should be left between the top of
the pump drive and any obstructions, plumbing or wiring that may hinder an authorized
warranty technician in the drive removal and replacement procedure.

assign the speed to the selected button (the LED be on). Four adjusted
pump speeds can be assigned to the speed buttons. When the pump
is using an adjusted speed and the pump is powered down, the next
time, the pump is powered up, the pump will use the same speed.

Stand-Alone Set-Up
(no controller or appliance communicating with IntelliProVS-3050)
The IntelliPro VS-3050 must be primed before starting for the first time. It may take several
minutes depending on water depth, pipe size, and length. Note: IntelliPro VS-3050 will prime
itself when used in a flooded suction system.
Priming the pump for the
first time or after service
Caution – to avoid permanent damage to IntelliPro VS-3050, before starting the pump,
fill the housing strainer with water so that the pump will prime correctly. If there is no
water in the strainer, the pump will not prime.
Never run the pump dry. Running dry may damage seals, causing leakage and flooding.
Do not add chemicals to the system directly in front of pump suction. Adding undiluted
chemicals may damage the pump and will void the warranty.
Important: Follow these
steps before removing
pump lid and priming
Release all pressure from pump and piping system prior to servicing.
Never tighten or loosen the clamp while the pump is operating.
1. Press the stop button if the pump is running.
2. Disconnect the communication cable from the pump.
3. Close the gate valves in suction and discharge pipes.

To Prime the
IntelliPro VS-3050
Turn the pump clamp and lid in a counterclockwise direction until they stop, and remove.
Fill the pump strainer pot with water.
Reinstall the pump clamp and lid onto the strainer pot. The pump is now ready to prime.
Make sure all electrical connections are clean and tight.
Re-open all closed valves.
Open the air release valve on the filter, and stand clear of the filter.
Switch IntelliPro VS-3050 on at the circuit breaker. Ensure that the green power light is on.
Press the Speed 4 button to select pump speed of 3110 RPM.
Press the Start button.
Use the Up/Down button to increase speed as necessary to prime the pump.
When water comes out of the air release valve, close the valve. The system should now be
circulating water back to the pool without air bubbles showing in either the hair and lint pot
or at the pool return fittings.

used for spa jets, water features, and priming.
Press the Up/Down button to increase or decrease pump speed.
Press and quickly release to increase or decrease in 10 RPM increments.
Press and hold the Up/Down button to continuously increase or decrease the pump speed
(20 RPM increments)
Saving Adjusted Speed
Press and hold Speed button for at least 3 seconds to assign current speed.
Press the Stop button.
Resetting Speeds to
Factory Default
Press and hold all four Speed buttons simultaneously for three seconds. Power off the drive
and re-energize. The default settings will be in effect.

Obtaining the ideal flow for a given application is an audio-visual feedback process, and may
require some trial and error. When you have eliminated cavitation, and water is flowing
quietly and smoothly through the pump, you have arrived at the most efficient speed setting.

IntelliPro alarms and warnings are indicated by flashing LED lights on the control panel.
Warning and Alarm
Conditions
For example, if an excessive drive temperature condition exists, the LED will blink two
times, pause, and then blink again two times to indicate a “DriveTemperature” warning.
The sequence is repeated until the condition is cleared.
If a warning condition occurs, the Green LED light will begin a sequence of blinks and the
pump will continue to run at a reduced speed. The Warning LED will reset when the
condition clears.
