IntelliChlor Quick Start Guide and Tips
Follow these guidelines when installing and using an IntelliChlor Salt Chlorine Generator.
Before Installing the IntelliChlor
• POWER CENTER: Ensure the line voltage matches the power center wiring. If the line
voltage is 200-263 VAC, set the power center to 220 VAC wiring (factory default). If the line
voltage is 85-130VAC, remove the lid on the power center and re-wire to 110 VAC,
referring to the wiring diagram on the lid.
• Set salt level in pool to 3200-3400 ppm
• For a newly plastered pool use a spacer cell (P/N 520588) for 30 days to ensure all pool
debris has been filtered out, avoiding damage to the IntelliChlor.
• Super chlorinate the pool. Set stabilizer to 75-100 ppm.
• Balance the pool water.
• Ph: 7.2 - 7.8
• Ensure no phosphates or nitrates are in the pool water. These chemicals will consume
chlorine as fast as it is produced, causing a low-chlorine condition in the water.
• Ensure the water temperature is above 52° F. The IntelliChlor will not produce chlorine
below 52° F.
• Install the IntelliChlor according to the water flow arrow, displayed on the top of the cell.
The IntelliChlor will only detect water flow operation one way. DO NOT ALTER OR
ADJUST THIS FLOW SWITCH PADDLE, it is a safety device.
After a Few Days
• Use a pool test kit and measure the free chlorine. Adjust the IntelliChlor Control Panel
output setting accordingly by pressing the MORE or LESS button. If connected to an
IntelliTouch
using the menu system. Refer to the control system product User's Guide for instructions.
• Verify the salt display LED is green. If the LED is yellow or red LED, add more salt to the
water.
