BWT F1 Sonic Pro Cordless Robotic Pool Cleaner

No cord, no tangles. Three to four hours of runtime, six cleaning cycles and SmartSensor navigation, for pools up to 15m.

Physically Stocked, unlike most 'drop-shipping' websites.
Shipped from VIC, NSW, QLD, WA

Cordless robots solve the single most annoying thing about pool cleaners - the cable wrapping itself around the unit halfway through a cycle. The F1 Sonic Pro pairs a long battery life with gyroscopic and ultrasonic SmartSensor navigation, so it works a deliberate pattern across floor, walls and waterline instead of drifting.

Six cleaning cycles run from a quick 30 minute floor pass up to a four hour deep clean, with Turbo mode for heavy debris and ECO mode for maintenance running.

Key Features

Long battery life - 3 to 4 hours runtime
Quick charge - approximately 2 hours 50 minutes to 3 hours
Wi-Fi and Bluetooth with app
Programming via the app or the robot control panel
Three cleaning modes - bottom, walls and waterline
Turbo mode for heavy debris
ECO mode - programmed sequence of three cleaning cycles
Six cycles from 30 minutes to 4 hours
Double basket filtration - 180 and 80 micron
Gyroscope and ultrasonic SmartSensor navigation

Specifications

Suits pools to: 15m
Power: cordless, rechargeable battery
Brushes: 2 x PVC
Filtration: dual basket, 180 micron
Weight: 7.8kg

Control Panel

Power button - cycles through floor, floor and walls, and walls and waterline
Timer button - off runs until low battery, on runs a fixed one hour cycle
ECO mode - 30 minute run, 48 hour interval, three floor cleaning cycles
Battery indicator - green 51 to 100 percent, blue 26 to 50 percent, red 1 to 25 percent
Flashing quickly - ready, drop the robot into the water. Flashing slowly - charging. Solid - running or standby

To the layperson, plumbing sizes and their names can be confusing due to the nominal sizes and naming conventions used.

This is not something we made up. Plumbers and manufacturers have used nominal (meaning ‘by name only’) sizing for decades.

Simply put, in plumbing, named sizes are often not the actual measurements of the pipe, fitting, or part. A PVC pipe called “50mm” or “2"” does not measure 50 mm anywhere. Instead, it follows nominal sizing, an internationally-standardised naming system.

Almost all fittings we use in the pool & spa industry use “pressure PVC” pipe & fittings. Do not confuse with “DWV” or other pipe & fittings and their names and sizes.

Use the Outside Diameter (OD) to check your pipe against fittings. Below is a quick reference for common spa & pool pipe sizes:

Imperial Name	Metric Name	Pipe Diameter (OD)
1/2"	15mm	~21.2–21.5 mm
3/4"	20mm	~26.6–26.9 mm
1"	25 mm	~33.4–33.7 mm
1.5"	40 mm	~48.1–48.4 mm
2"	50 mm	~60.2–60.8 mm
2.5"	65 mm	~75.2–75.5 mm

To reiterate, these are nominal sizes and are designed to fit matching fittings — not to measure what their name suggests. These are based on PVC Pressure Pipe AS/NZ 1477 Dimensions^1.

º Internal diameters vary slightly by manufacturer and class.
¹ Not all pool/spa fittings match these dimensions exactly. Some do not follow Australian or international standards. Chinese spas may use proprietary fittings.

Understanding Plumbing Sizes & Nominal Measurements

Plumbing sizes can be confusing. PVC and many other pipe systems use nominal sizes—the size is a name, not the exact measured dimension. This convention is used across most pool and spa systems and other plumbing areas so that pipes and fittings remain compatible.

Quick example: A 2" / 50 mm fitting is named for the pipe it connects to, but the pipe’s actual outside diameter (OD) is approx. 60.3 mm (typically ~60.2–60.5 mm in AS/NZ pressure pipe).

Another example: a 2” / 50mm o-ring may refer to a barrel union, etc that suits 50mm pipe. Eg: a “50mm Balboa Gasket” refers to a heater gasket that measure 74mm across, but suits a Balboa barrel union made for 50mm pipe (and the 50mm pipe does not measure 50mm either!)

Why pipe sizes don’t match the measurements

The Nominal Pipe Size (NPS) system standardises pipe dimensions so that pipes, fittings, valves, and accessories interoperate.

Plumbers work with these nominal names every day, but DIYers can be tripped up if they try to match by a tape-measure alone.

How to Measure Pipe Correctly

Pipe size is identified by:
- The pipe’s Outside Diameter (OD).
- The fitting’s Inside Diameter (ID) (socket opening).
Pipe Class / Schedule (e.g., Class 9, 12, 18 or Sch 40) relates to wall thickness and therefore the Internal Diameter (ID) and pressure rating.
The outside diameter of a fitting is not useful (wall thickness varies by manufacturer).

Important: For pool/spa work, most plumbing uses Pressure Pipe (AS/NZ standards) — not DWV. Always check OD and the pipe class against your equipment specifications.

Hose & Tube Dimensions

Common flexible hose sizes used in pool/spa systems (approximate IDs).

Imperial Name	Metric Name	Inside Diameter (ID)
3/8"	9–10 mm	~9 mm
3/4"	19 mm	~19 mm

BSP – British Standard Pipe Thread Sizes

BSP thread names are also nominal. The thread OD will not equal the nominal name.

BSP Thread Size Naming	Outside Diameter (mm / inch)	TPI
1/16" BSP	7.7 mm / 0.304"	28
1/8" BSP	9.7 mm / 0.383"	28
1/4" BSP	13.16 mm / 0.518"	19
3/8" BSP	16.66 mm / 0.656"	19
1/2" BSP / 15 mm	20.99 mm / 0.825"	14
5/8" BSP	22.99 mm / 0.902"	14
3/4" BSP / 20 mm	26.44 mm / 1.041"	14
7/8" BSP	30.20 mm / 1.189"	14
1" BSP / 25 mm	33.25 mm / 1.309"	11
1-1/4" BSP	41.91 mm / 1.650"	11
1-1/2" BSP / 40 mm	47.80 mm / 1.882"	11
2" BSP / 50 mm	59.61 mm / 2.347"	11
2-1/4" BSP	65.71 mm / 2.587"	11
2-1/2" BSP	75.18 mm / 2.960"	11
3" BSP	87.88 mm / 3.460"	11
4" BSP	113.03 mm / 4.450"	11
5" BSP	138.43 mm / 5.450"	11
6" BSP	163.83 mm / 6.450"	11
