Larger residential pools and higher-demand circulation systems can utilize The Sta-Rite SilentFlo 1100 where strong filtration performance and quieter hydraulic operation are both important during continuous pool service. Its ultra-quiet hydraulic arrangement is developed for efficient recirculation across filtration, heating, and general pool water movement applications.
Hydraulic performance reaches approximately 430 L/Min with maximum head capability extending to approximately 16 m depending on operating conditions. The pump operates through a single-phase 240V TEFC 2-pole motor delivering 1.05 kW input power with 0.79 kW motor output while drawing rated current of 5.0 A. Operating sound levels remain around 59 dBA during filtration duty.
Water transfer efficiency is supported through a precision hydraulic design developed to maintain strong circulation performance across residential filtration systems. The large-volume strainer basket assists capture of leaves and suspended debris while extending cleaning intervals, and dual 50 mm quick-disconnect barrel unions simplify maintenance access and servicing around the filtration system.
Constructed using UV resistant thermoplastic composite resin materials, the pump body is developed for durability within outdoor pool environments and chemically treated water conditions. Additional engineering details include a stainless steel motor shaft, captive bolts, and a cam-and-ramp lid arrangement for simplified strainer access. The TEFC continuous-duty motor incorporates IPX5 protection, while the elevated stable base assists reduction of vibration and moisture exposure.
