You're enjoying a refreshing swim when suddenly your pool robot starts heading straight toward you. Should you be worried?
No, you should not swim with most pool robots operating, Iicluding Dolphin LIBERTY 300. Modern cleaners like LINCINCO models
have safety features, but manufacturers recommend keeping a safe distance during operation.
Last summer, one of our clients in Florida called in a panic after his daughter got tangled with their old pool robot. That incident made
us rethink safety standards in our designs.
Accidental contact with pool robots happens more often than you might think.
Most quality robots like ours have brush guards and automatic shut-off sensors, but their moving parts can still cause minor pinches or
scratches upon direct contact.
Understanding the Risks
1. Physical Contact Risks:
- Brush rollers can trap loose hair or swimwear
- Suction inlets may pinch fingers (though modern models have guards)
- Heavier robots (15+ lbs) could cause foot impact
2. Electrical Safety:
- All models similar to LINCINCO and Dolphin models use 24V low-voltage systems
- Waterproofing exceeds IPX8 standards
- Multiple ground fault protections
Risk Factor | Basic Models | Dolphin LIBERTY 300 | LINCINCO Models | Improvemen |
Pinch Hazar | Moderate | Nearly Impossibl | Minimal | 75% safer |
Electrical Shock | Possible | Minimal | Nearly Impossibl | 99.9% reduction |
Collision Impact | High | General | Low | 80% softer |
It've engineered multiple layers of protection for worry-free pool sharing.
Dolphin LIBERTY 300 pool cleaning robots feature infrared proximity sensors, emergency stop functions, and soft-touch bumpers
that detect and avoid swimmers automatically.
Safety Tech Breakdown
1. Proximity Detection System:
- 360° infrared sensors detect bodies within 3 feet
- Immediate reverse maneuver when triggered
- Visual/audible alerts (LED strobes + beeps)
2. Emergency Features:
- Floating pause button (accessible while swimming)
- Auto-shutoff if tilted more than 45°
- Remote kill switch for pool operators
3. Physical Protections:
- Silicone-coated brushes
- Rounded edges (no sharp corners)
- Buoyant design (floats when powered off)
Timing matters more than you might realize for both safety and cleaning efficiency.
The ideal schedule runs cleaners 2-3 hours after swimming ends, allowing complete water circulation while eliminating human-robot interactions.
Optimal Cleaning Schedule
Pool Type | Recommended Time | Duration | Safety Benefit |
Residential | 5-7 AM | 2 hrs | Zero swim overlap |
Hotel/Resort | 1-4 AM | 3 hrs | Maintenance window |
Therapy Pools | Between sessions | 1.5 hrs | Patient safety |
Our LINCINCO app allows scheduling during low-usage periods and sends real-time alerts if someone enters the pool during operation,
It is only natural that not only the Dolphin LIBERTY 300, but also many high-quality pool cleaning robots have this function.
Its SmartScan 360° technology combines infrared and acoustic sensors to detect swimmers within 5 feet, triggering immediate evasive maneuvers.
Collision Avoidance System Breakdown
1. Dual-Layer Detection:
- Infrared sensors for body heat detection
- Acoustic waves for movement tracking
- 20 scans per second refresh rate
2. Evasive Action Protocol:
- Stops all brush movement
- Reverses direction smoothly
- Activates warning strobe lights
3. Safety Buffer Zones:
- 3ft alert zone (slows operation)
- 5ft avoidance zone (full evasive action)
The Dolphin LIBERTY 300 features patented BrushGuard technology and smooth-surface construction that prevents hair/fabric entanglement completely.
The Dolphin LIBERTY 300 achieves full stop in 0.3 seconds through its InstantStop brake system - faster than human reaction time.
Conclusion
While you technically can swim near modern robots, manufacturers like us strongly recommend separa ormance. The Dolphin LIBERTY 300
sets new swimmer safety standards with its 5ft detection range and instant stopping, though our LINCINCO models remain the choice for
customizable commercial solutions. Welcome to consult us for the best pool cleaning robot solution
