Emaux Incorrect Speed Setting / Programming Issue

Pump is unusually quiet but water flow is much lower than expected; motor speed seems reduced on a variable-speed Emaux pump.

Possible Causes

Speed set too low in controller, Timer program using eco-speed only, External controller limiting speed

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Keep clear of moving parts while adjusting settings.

  • Check speed setting: On the Emaux control panel, verify the current speed (RPM) or power level. Increase to a higher preset and observe flow.
  • Review programs: Inspect timer programs to ensure that at least one period uses a higher speed for filtration and backwashing.
  • Check external control: If connected to automation, temporarily disconnect control wiring and run the pump in local/manual mode to see if speed returns to normal.
  • Restore defaults: If settings are confusing, perform a factory reset and reprogram according to the Emaux manual.

If the pump cannot reach higher speeds even when commanded, there may be a drive or motor fault requiring service.
