Solar swimming pool filtration

I am looking for a kit that will provide direct solar powered dc pump and filtration kit for a swimming pool in Greece. Sun is not a problem. Lorentz do the pump kits with 500wp panels but I also need the filtration kit to suit the size of pool and environment (outdoor). Pool is 72,000 litres. Has anyone done this successfully? Can you offer detail of what is required? Thanks.

Re: Solar swimming pool filtration
Any standard filtration system should work fine, sand, DE or cartridge. It just needs to be sized according to your pool size. I usually pick one size up from the normal recommendations.
I just replaced my setup with a Hayward DE setup and like it a lot, DE systems tend to scrub the water pretty clean but you have to buy DE to add for every backwash.
I recently also replace the pump with a Intelliflo VFD and controller, but next go round I am considering the Lorentz direct DC. -
