How to Clean Your Dolphin EON™ 120d Cordless Pool Cleaner DebrisLock™ Filter

Keeping your robotic pool cleaner's filter clean is an important part of maintaining effective pool cleaning performance. The Dolphin EON™ 120d makes this easier with its patented DebrisLock™ filtration system, designed to capture ultra-fine debris while reducing the need for frequent manual filter cleaning. 

Whether you're new to the Dolphin EON™ 120d or want to get the most from your pool cleaner, understanding how to check, rinse and maintain its filter can help keep your robotic pool cleaner ready for its next cleaning cycle. 

What Is the Dolphin EON™ 120d Pool Vacuum DebrisLock™ Filter? 

The Dolphin EON™ 120d uses DebrisLock™ backwash filtration to collect dirt, leaves and ultra-fine particles from your swimming pool. 

Unlike a standard filter system, DebrisLock™ is designed to help manage the debris collected during cleaning and reduce the frequency of manual filter maintenance. 

Maytronics states that the system can provide up to 4x clearer water and save up to 20 hours of maintenance per year. 

For pool owners, this means less time spent maintaining the pool cleaner and more time enjoying the pool. 

Does the Dolphin EON™ 120d Cordless Pool Cleaner Filter Need to Be Cleaned? 

Yes. While DebrisLock™ is designed to reduce how often the filter needs manual cleaning, it still needs to be checked and rinsed when required. 

After removing the Dolphin EON™ 120d cordless pool cleaner from the pool, it is recommended to rinse the filter to remove collected debris. Cleaning the filter promptly can also help prevent dirt and debris from drying and becoming harder to remove. 

The DebrisLock™ filter has two chambers, so both should be rinsed during the cleaning process.

How Often Should You Clean the Dolphin EON™ 120d Filter? 

The DebrisLock™ system is designed to reduce the need for frequent manual filter cleaning, but there is no one cleaning schedule that suits every pool. How often you need to rinse the filter can depend on factors such as: 

• How frequently you use your pool cleaner 

• The amount of leaves and larger debris in the pool 

• The amount of fine dirt and particles in the water 

• Seasonal conditions 

• How often the pool is cleaned 

Checking the filter regularly is the best way to determine when it needs attention. The Maytronics One™ app can also help you monitor the filter level when the Dolphin EON™ 120d is out of the water. 

Why Regular Filter Cleaning Matters 

Even with advanced filtration, regular filter care remains an important part of looking after any robotic pool cleaner. A clean filter allows the Dolphin EON™ 120d to continue collecting debris during its cleaning cycles. Regular rinsing also helps prevent accumulated dirt from drying on the filter. The benefit of DebrisLock™ is that it is designed to reduce how often this manual maintenance is required, helping make pool care more convenient. 

More Than Just a Pool Vacuum 

While filter maintenance is a key part of the Dolphin EON™ 120d experience, the robotic pool cleaner is designed to provide comprehensive cleaning across your swimming pool. The Dolphin EON™ 120d can clean: 

• Pool floors 

• Walls 

• Waterlines 

• Steps 

• Tanning ledges as shallow as 20 cm 

SmartMap™ Navigation helps the robot navigate the pool, while JetIQ™ technology helps it maintain grip when cleaning steps and challenging surfaces. Its cordless design also eliminates the need to manage a power cable while cleaning.
