Automatic 3 way valve T-bore - Hidro type

ZWPX2180-P

Ecological pool heating total concept

More info >

Our EPDM solar heating can be combined with our automated 3-way valve and your existing or new heat pump to create a fully automated, environmentally friendly and economical solar heating for swimming pool system.

All of this can be monitored and controlled via our smart WiFiPOOL-app.

Specifications

Automated three-way valves are primarily used to control solar systems. When the sun shines (temperature at the solar collector is 4°C higher than the water temperature), the valve switches to the "solar heating" position. When the water is cloudy, the valve moves towards the pool.
The valve is usually connected to a temperature controller (optionally included).

The valve has an L-shaped bore, meaning that water enters the middle connection and is then directed left or right.

2 Options

  • Without temperature controller
    Only a motorised, WiFi-controlled three-way valve
  • With temperature controller
    Besides a motorised, WiFi-controlled three-way valve and temperature controller, this set includes a TLF measuring box (Temperature | Level | Flow) with two thermocouples and a sleeve for the temperature sensor.

When can it be used without a temperature controller?

Two-way valves are used to control overflow basin levels.
The valve may open, for example, when a pump starts or a roller cover is opened, etc.

 

Additionally, the customer may have purchased a Gen2 water treatment system, which can be extended with a temperature sensor. Additional temperature control on the valve itself is then no longer necessary.

Advantages of WiFiPOOL Control

The WiFiPOOL connection enables finer and continuous control, allowing manual on/off switching remotely.
It is also possible to set a timer to heat your pool more environmentally friendly.

Additionally, it's also possible to change the standard flow direction from right to left. This can be done very easily in the app by changing the condition "100% open when roof temp > water temp" to "0% open when roof temp > water temp".
The valve will then rotate in reverse based on temperature measurement.
See illustration in product gallery.

Advantages of Ball Valves

The special feature of this valve is that it rotates 90° back and forth, powered by a motor.
This offers three advantages:

  • The valve is never fully closed during rotation.
    This prevents pressure shocks in the pipes caused by the rotation.
  • The ball pressure of the valve is adjustable at the valve unions.
    This ensures the valve rotates very smoothly without pressure on the inner wall.
  • The valve can also be used in other applications where it remains partly open; for these purposes, you should choose the WiFi version.
  • In the unlikely event of a failure, it’s possible to replace the valve with a manual one without needing to reseal the pipes.

L and T-Bores: What is the Difference?

  • L-bore: Connects two of the three openings, allowing you to block or open one direction.
  • T-bore: Connects all three openings, allowing mixing or distribution of flow.
