Suction Entrapment Detection

Vac-Alert Safety Vacuum Release System
This self-monitoring, non-electric, low maintenance safety system has a millisecond response time, automatically responding to an increase in pump suction vacuum that can be caused by main drain blockages or body entrapment. Spring loaded pistons react quickly to high vacuum conditions and open to atmosphere to release the life-threatening suction. Made of non-corrosive PVC with stainless steel parts for long term durability, the Vac-Alert is easily installed and includes an installation video and detailed field installation guide.

Stingl Suction Entrapment Detection System for Swimming Pools

Stingl Switch Safety Vacuum Release System
The Stingl SR-500 Safety Vacuum Release System works by monitoring the vacuum on the influent side of the pump. When a blockage occurs in the main drain or skimmers, the sudden rise in vacuum will cause the switch to shut down the pump and activate an audible alarm. The pump will remain off with the alarm sounding until manually reset. Stingl Switch complies with ASME/ANSI 112.19.17 required under the International Business Codes and meets all current codes and standards for SVRSs on new and existing pools.
