Page 3 of 16 STRATUM™ Model VR1000 P/N: ISVR1000 Rev: M WARNING - To reduce the risk of entrapment hazards: When suction outlets are less than a 18” x 23” equivalent, a minimum of two functioning suction outlets per pump must be installed. Suction outlets in the same plane (i.e. floor or wall), must be installed a minimum of three feet (3’) [1 meter] apart, as measured from near point to near point. o Dual suction outlets shall be placed in such locations and distances to avoid “dual blockage” by a user.
Page 4 of 16 STRATUM™ Model VR1000 P/N: ISVR1000 Rev: M General Information: The VR1000 Vacuum Release System is designed as a pump controller. The system will protect pool and spa equipment from certain mechanical failures, such as clogged drains and pipe breakage; which can cause premature pump motor failure. The system monitors and recognizes a change in pressure and electrical power. When a change occurs, it will shut down the pump, and vent the suction line.

The system operates in four basic states during normal pool monitoring. STARTUP – PULSING The vacuum solenoid valve is opened and closed several times to ‘soft start’ the system at startup time to warn swimmers that the pump is running. A self-test then occurs to verify that the sensor / solenoid subsystem is functioning properly.
