BESGO 5-way automatic valve
Besgo 5-way automatic flush valves in PVC-U.
With solenoid valves for operation by water or air.
Manufactured in Switzerland since 1980, the Besgo 5-way valve is a pneumatic valve that automates backwashing of sand, glass, or AFM® filters efficiently, easily, and safely. Thanks to a faster backwashing speed than traditional 6-way valves, the Besgo 5-way valve guarantees superior results and allows you to get the most out of your pool by reducing maintenance time.
Benefits of Besgo 5-way valves:
- Minimal pressure loss: It provides faster washing speeds and better efficiency than traditional 6-way valves.
- High installation flexibility: It can be installed directly on the filter or mounted on a wall (90° swivel connections).
- Very safe operation: The valve automatically returns to "Filtration Mode" in case of power failure.
- Quick change: It is not necessary to stop the filtration pump to switch to backwash mode.
- Made in Switzerland: Certified high-quality product. TÜV Rheinland certified/GS Mark (Safety tested).
- Suitable for all sand filters - up to 2 meters in diameter: Valves available from DN40 (50 mm) to DN125 (140 mm).
By ensuring regular and powerful backwashes, Besgo creates the conditions for crystal-clear water of the highest quality. Besgo is compatible with any type of pool water treatment, including salt electrolysis systems.
Operation of Besgo 5-way valves:
The Besgo 5-way valve operates automatically with either water or pressurized air. A connection to the water mains or a small air compressor will provide the 3.5 bar required for its operation.
A simple 230V electrical controller/timer is all that's needed to program and activate the solenoid valve. The solenoid valve receives power and opens; the incoming pressure compresses the spring inside the Besgo valve, initiating the backwashing process. This process continues for as long as desired, provided the solenoid valve receives power. In the event of a power failure, the Besgo valve automatically returns to its "Filtration" position, preventing the pool from draining unintentionally.
