Product details
The CaliMar CMARVSP1.0 is the 1 HP model, the smallest in CaliMar's CMARVSP variable speed line for inground pools. It takes 230V single phase power at 50 or 60 Hz, runs anywhere from 450 to 3,450 RPM, and has 2 in. suction and discharge ports.
Motor and pump
The motor is a totally enclosed, fan cooled (TEFC) premium efficiency variable speed design. The pump body and strainer pot are molded as one, which CaliMar credits with lower hydraulic noise, and the see-through lid shows how full the basket is. The controller's enclosure is rated IPX6 against rain and UV, the pump is ETL listed for the US and Canada, and ENERGY STAR certifies it with a WEF of 8.2.
Controls
Everything is set at the keypad: the clock, four timed speeds for each day, Quick Clean and the priming speed. Speeds move in 10 RPM steps and run times in 15 minute steps, and the display cycles through speed, time, time left and watts. CaliMar's guide gives this model no automation speed inputs, so an outside timer or relay can turn its power on and off but cannot choose its speed.
Before you buy
At 3,450 RPM, CaliMar's curve puts it at about 60 GPM against 50 feet of head. It draws 5.5 A at 230V, is wired in permanently on a GFCI protected circuit, and CaliMar wants a licensed electrician to do it. The warranty runs one year on materials and workmanship for the first buyer in residential use; commercial use voids it, and labor is not covered.
