Proteus Robotic Pool Cleaner Line Overview
The Dolphin Robotic Pool Cleaners by Maytronics have
been some of the top-rated cleaners on the market. The Proteus line of the
Dolphin Cleaners are some of the best and they have three models the Proteus
DX3, the Proteus DX4, and the Proteus DX5i. Each of these models is in
different categories based on their various features. I will highlight the
features of all three models for you so that you can decide which one is right
for you.
Let me go over the general features that all three
cleaners have in common first. One of the great things about the Proteus line
of cleaners is that they all weigh less than 14 lbs. This allows for very easy
transport and also makes them relatively easy to remove from the pool after the
cleaning cycle is over. All three feature an advanced power supply with an easy
to use on/off button and a weekly programmable cleaning cycle. You can set the
cleaner to clean your pool once per week, 3 times per week or 4 times per week.
A great feature to have in a robotic pool cleaner. All three are also top
loading cleaners with a very easy to access debris basket.
Dolphin
DX5i:
The
DX5i is part of Dolphin’s Deluxe Class of Robotic Pool Cleaners. Here are some
of the features.
“The Dolphin Proteus DX5i
now offers two cleaning cycles for added convenience. The one-hour cleaning
cycle is ideal for a quick clean, particularly on the floor and cove. The two-hour
cleaning cycle is perfect for a full cleaning coverage on floors walls and
waterline.
Along with the same precise navigation and advanced 20-minute
mapping of your pool, you can now control and drive the Proteus DX5i using the
My Dolphin App on your smartphone. It also has an energy saver power supply
with more functions than before, like touch-screen control and mode selection."
The Ultra Fine filter inserts are included in the box which to me is a nice touch. I find that these Ultra Fine filters are excellent and prefer them to the standard filters. I also like how fast the cleaner works. In less than 2 hours it will clean an average size pool and leave it spotless. The App is a nice touch but it is limited to turning the cleaner on and off and using it as a remote control for the DX5i. For the price, you are getting a complete cleaner.

Dolphin
DX4:
Here
are some features of the DX4cleaner.
“It
starts by precisely spending the first twenty minutes scanning your pool to
create the most efficient route, which helps to ensure that no spots are
missed. The Proteus DX4 thoroughly cleans the pool floor, wall, and waterline.
This
Dolphin Pool Cleaner also equipped with an integrated filtration system to
remove dirt and debris. Simply choose from one of two filtration options: Fine
filter for Spring cleaning and large debris or Ultra-fine Filter for small
particles as tiny as 50 microns for a daily or weekly cleaning.
The
Ultra Fine filter inserts are included in the box also. The DX4 is the exact cleaner as the DX5i minus the App connectivity and the 1-hour quick clean mode. If you don't need these two features found in the DX5i I would go for the DX4.

Dolphin
DX3:
The
DX3 is a great entry-level cleaner that has some premium features like a
scrubbing brush, programmable timer, and floor to wall cleaning ability. Here are
some more features of the DX3.
“The Dolphin Proteus DX3 Robotic Pool Cleaner focuses
on delivering clean results and easy maintenance. The Proteus DX3 is
constructed with a powerful suction that allows it to easily climb up the walls
and seamlessly come back down.
It is equipped with an active brush that spins faster
then the speed of the unit itself to scrub away dirt, debris, and bacteria.
Once the net basket is full, simply empty and rinses clean. The Proteus DX3 also
offers a quick water release, which makes removing the cleaner from the pool a
breeze.”
The DX3 does not come with the Ultra Fine filter
inserts but you can purchase an Ultra Fine Filter separately: Dolphin Ultra
Fine Filter Basket 9991460-R1. It is an entry-level robotic cleaner but it has many of the features of a premium robot. The fact that it cleans the pool to the waterline and has a weekly programmable timer sets it apart from the rest in this entry-level category.
