Medium-to-large residential pool systems and swim spas can utilize the Davey DSF1100 StarFlo SF where stronger circulation performance is required for filtration, recirculation, and solar heating applications. Its self-priming hydraulic arrangement is developed for dependable water movement across daily pool operating cycles and continuous filtration demand.
Hydraulic capability reaches approximately 400 L/Min with maximum head extending to approximately 17 m depending on operating conditions. The pump operates through a single-phase 240V motor utilizing 1.1 kW input power while drawing rated current of 5.8 A. The hydraulic profile supports efficient water turnover and stable circulation performance across larger residential pool installations.
Water circulation efficiency is maintained through a centrifugal self-priming hydraulic configuration paired with a corrosion-resistant Noryl impeller for long-term hydraulic reliability. The transparent strainer lid assists rapid debris inspection and basket access during servicing intervals, while integrated self-resetting thermal overload protection assists in reducing motor damage risk during overheating conditions.
Corrosion-resistant UV stabilised thermoplastic construction contributes durability within outdoor pool equipment environments and chemically treated water conditions. Installation flexibility is supported through 40/50 mm inlet and outlet connections together with self-aligning barrel unions. Additional engineering features include a 316 stainless steel shaft, high-performance silicon carbide Viton mechanical seal arrangement, and integrated drain plug access for simplified maintenance procedures.
