AstralPool – Victoria Smart Connect VS 100 Variable-Speed Pool Pump – 0.75 kW

The Victoria Smart Connect VS 100 is a variable-speed pool pump with a 0.75 kW motor and ø 50 mm pipe connections. It runs on 220 – 240 V / 50 / 60 Hz at 50 / 75 / 100 % speed, with sound levels of 40.5 / 53.0 / 61.5 dBA.

How the pump works

The Victoria Smart Connect VS is a variable-speed pump with a permanent magnet motor. It is designed for pre-filtering and recirculating water in swimming pools and operates with clean water below 40 ºC.

Because the speed can be matched to the job, you can run it slowly for everyday filtration and faster for tasks such as cleaning. The manufacturer states that it reduces energy consumption by up to 85% compared with a single-speed pump, using customised speed profiles and the timer function. Its figures are given for low-speed operating conditions.

Control and connectivity

The pump has a removable, multilingual control panel with a dial and dedicated buttons. Quick action buttons start preset programmes such as clean mode, high speed and medium speed, and a low-speed programme is available from the menu. Further programmes can be set up with your own speed and duration.

Auto schedules let you set start time, duration, speed and days of the week. After a power cut, the pump returns to its previous mode and settings.

• Local control from the panel
• Remote monitoring and control from a smartphone or tablet (iOS and Android) via Wi-Fi / Bluetooth and the manufacturer’s pool app
• Dry-contact inputs and an auxiliary relay for connecting other pool equipment such as salt chlorinators, heat pumps or automatic covers

Startup and protection functions

Each time the pump starts, it runs a priming routine to fill the hydraulic side with water and clear trapped air. Auto priming is the default, and a manual priming mode is available in the settings. Calibration then follows, to adapt the flow range to your installation.

Dry-run protection is enabled by default and guards against running without water. Freeze protection can switch the pump on automatically in cold weather, but only while the pump is in off mode. The flow value shown by the pump is an estimate, so use a calibrated flowmeter if you need a precise measurement.

Quiet operation

Permanent magnet motor technology and the hydraulic design are intended to keep noise down. The manufacturer quotes sound levels below 40 dBA at the lowest speeds, measured under low-speed operating conditions. Sound level rises with speed, and the figures for each model are listed in its checked values.

Installation and replacement

The pump is compatible with previous AstralPool Victoria models, so it can be swapped in as a replacement without construction work. Assembly, wiring and maintenance must be carried out by a qualified installer, in line with the manual and the regulations in force for pools. Do not touch moving parts, and have a damaged power cable replaced by a qualified engineer.

The pump should be fastened to a support or secured in a horizontal position. It must be connected to an earthed supply protected by a residual current device, with a disconnector in the fixed wiring and a motor protector. Disconnect the power before any work on the pump. The control panel should be kept away from splashing water. Use only original spare parts and accessories authorised by the manufacturer.
