DOLPHIN SERIES MARK

For a 10x5-meter pool with à carrelage and steep slopes, the Dolphin Mark 30 is the right model thanks to its reinforced traction and dual-level filtration. Its internal motor drives toothed tracks designed to prevent loss of grip on wet glass surfaces.

Before choosing this autonomous electric robot, it’s worth considering the specific requirements of your installation:

• Full coverage: cleans the floor, walls, and waterline in a 2-hour cycle.
• Superior filtration: top-access basket that captures fine particles as small as 70 microns.
• Precise navigation: CleverClean navigation algorithm calibrated for sloped floors up to 12 meters long.

Unlike mechanical alternatives such as the Zodiac MX8 automatic pool cleaner, this electric device does not overload the filtration pump or require changes to the skimmer valves.

To maintain the filter basket on Dolphin Mark Series robots, remove the top module and rinse it under running water at moderate pressure after each cycle. This prevents dried sludge from clogging the mesh and increasing the mechanical load on the upper turbine.

Never use abrasive detergents or wire brushes on the filter fabrics. Check monthly for branches or gravel jamming the drive wheel to maintain the nominal suction flow rate.

Dolphin Mark Series pool cleaners feature a quick water-release system that drains the internal water in three seconds when lifted over the edge, leaving a dry weight of approximately 6.5 kilograms. This technology means you don’t have to lift the 15 liters of water that a conventional chassis typically retains during removal.

In addition, the one-way retention mechanism prevents settled dirt from returning to the pool while you lift the ergonomic handle. The maneuver requires no undue strain on your lower back or accessories.

The main difference is that the Dolphin Mark Series operates with its own electric motor at a low voltage of 24 volts, while the hydraulic model depends entirely on the power of the pool’s filtration pump. An electric robot filters debris in its own filter without sending dirt to the filter system’s sand.

A hydraulic model such as the Zodiac T5 Duo automatic pool cleaner requires a pump with at least 0.75 hp to move, while Dolphin Mark Series units use an average of 120 to 150 watts from their digital transformer, ensuring scheduled cleaning independent of the filtration system.

The Dolphin Mark Series pool cleaner is fully compatible with PVC liner and reinforced membrane pools, thanks to its grooved PVC brushes and balanced traction from soft tracks. Weight distribution prevents mechanical pinching of the liner's heat-welded seams.

To ensure full operational compatibility in 2026, follow these usage guidelines:

• Free chlorine level: keep it between 1 and 2 ppm to preserve the elasticity of the drive belts.
• Water pH: keep it stable between 7.2 and 7.6 to prevent mineral salts from depositing prematurely on the chassis.
• Surface balance: the tracks do not wear down the liner membrane or discolor the decorative pigment on the pool floor.

The smart scanning system adjusts the turn to protect corners and the floor-to-wall junctions.

The standard cleaning cycle for the Dolphin Mark Series lasts exactly 2 hours, providing full coverage of the floor and vertical walls. During this time, the robot calculates systematic cleaning routes using its internal processor.

After completing 120 minutes of operation, the transformer automatically shuts off the power, with no risk of overheating. Average electricity consumption per cycle does not exceed 0.3 kWh, making the operating cost negligible compared with intensive sand washing.

The 15-meter power cable on the Mark Series has a mechanical swivel system that prevents tangling as the robot makes ninety-degree turns in corners. This component eliminates the knots common in submerged cables and prevents interruptions to the movement pattern.

Place the power supply at least 3.5 meters from the pool edge on a dry, ventilated surface. If you have perimeter safety accessories such as the Aqualarm pool alarm by Maytronics, the unit's underwater movement is calibrated to minimize false alerts caused by surface waves during its operating cycle.
