Aquabot

Aquabot’s AquaSmart Gyro system uses an electronic gyroscope and a mathematical algorithm to scan the pool’s exact dimensions and calculate an optimized coverage route. This mechanism prevents the pool cleaner from making unnecessary passes over the same spot, reducing wear on mechanical components and shortening typical cleaning cycles to between 1.5 and 2 hours, depending on the selected settings.

Since it does not rely on random movement patterns, the unit maintains stable, linear paths on the floor and walls. The technical benefits of this intelligent mapping system include:

• Optimization of the low-voltage transformer’s energy consumption.
• Prevention of twists and knots in the memory-free floating cable.
• Methodical cleaning of corners, steep slopes, and complex curves.

This technology ensures that the entire surface is cleaned before the scheduled stop.

For a 10x5-meter pool with a glass-tile lining, an Aquabot robot requires a minimum suction flow rate of 19 m³/h and specialized, high-grip PVA brushes. The glass tiles create a slippery film due to the grout lines and biofilm, requiring rollers designed to climb vertical walls without losing traction at the waterline.

Also, check that the cable is at least 15 meters long to ensure full coverage from the power outlet to the farthest point of the pool. The 4D filtration technology basket will trap both settled sand and microscopic dust, reducing the load on your main filtration pump. If you need to optimize your installation’s overall circuit, check out compatible pump options to complement water circulation.

The difference lies in the material composition and the level of grip on the pool surface. PVC brushes have rubber blades designed for pools with liners, reinforced PVC liners, or fiberglass, where the surface texture allows firm movement and deep mechanical removal of algae and debris.

By contrast, PVA or high-density foam brushes are suitable for ceramic à carrelage, glazed tile, and extremely smooth polished concrete. This porous material absorbs water and grips vertical walls firmly, ensuring the unit climbs to the waterline without slipping during each cleaning cycle.

Any residential Aquabot pool cleaner can be connected to a standard 230 V power outlet with an earth connection protected by a residual-current device. The transformer supplied with the robot converts this alternating current into safe low-voltage direct current of between 24 and 30 volts, eliminating any risk of electric shock while it is in the water.

To ensure safe startup and preserve the service life of the electronic circuits, follow these connection guidelines:

• Place the power supply at least 3.5 meters from the water’s edge.
• Protect the control box from continuous direct sunlight and heavy rain.
• Avoid using extension cords or cable reels, as they may cause voltage drops.
• Unplug the unit from the mains before removing the pool cleaner by its ergonomic handle.

The transformer has a programmable automatic shutoff that activates at the end of the cleaning cycle to protect the drive motor.

No, Aquabot pool cleaners are fully autonomous units that do not use the pool pump or skimmer suction port. They have their own internal pumping and drive motors, collecting dirt in a removable internal filter basket or bag without dirtying the filter’s sand or glass media.

This technical independence provides direct operational advantages over traditional hydraulic systems:

• No water is used to backwash or rinse the pool filter.
• Performance is independent of the existing filtration pump.
• Direct retention of debris down to two microns using three-dimensional fabric.

When the cycle is complete, simply remove the top basket, rinse the mesh with a garden hose, and store the unit until next time.

For pools over 12 meters long, an Aquabot robot connected to the power supply by a floating cable ensures sustained performance without power drops or operational interruptions. Corded units guarantee a continuous suction rate of up to 19 m³/h or 38 m³/h throughout the entire 2- or 3-hour cycle, allowing them to continuously brush pool floors and climb steep walls.

By contrast, battery-powered models are limited by finite battery life, which usually lasts between 90 and 120 minutes, and require several hours to recharge before starting a second cleaning cycle. If the pool accumulates lots of leaves or dust after windy days, the power supply from a non-memory floating cable prevents tangling and provides the consistent mechanical power needed for deep cleaning.

The 4D filter should be cleaned after every vacuuming cycle, or when the visual saturation indicator signals that it needs cleaning on compatible models. Keeping the microfiber fabric free of limescale, pollen, and sediment ensures that the suction flow remains unaffected and the motor operates without overheating.

The maintenance process is straightforward: access the top of the chassis, release the filter cartridges using the quick-release button, and rinse them under low-pressure running water. Do not use pressure washers on the textile fibers to avoid tearing the fine-micron weave.
