IntelliChlor SCG Control Panel and Cell Description

The IntelliChlor SCG includes a control panel with buttons and LED indicators to control the
IntelliChlor SCG and produce chlorine (see page 7). The IntelliChlor SCG measures the water
temperature and salt level to produce chlorine at the defined output. If the salt level in the pool water
is too low (red on salt display), the cell is turned off until salt is added to the pool. The SCG cell has
a self-cleaning cycle which reverses the cell polarity, reducing calcium buildup. This feature turns the
cell on and off at regular intervals to minimize calcium and scale buildup and further maximizes cell
life (see page 15).

System Components

The chlorine production can be varied by either adjusting the sanitizer output level on the control
panel and/or by varying the number of hours the IntelliChlor SCG is on each day. The IntelliChlor
SCG automatically reverses the cell electrode blades every few hours to help clean the cell. This
process does not interrupt the production of Chlorine.
• Flow Sensor: A flow sensor assures that there will always be adequate water flow through
the IntelliChlor SCG. If the IntelliChlor SCG is not properly plumbed and/or does not
receive adequate water flow, no chlorine will be produced.
• Temperature Sensor: To protect the IntelliChlor SCG from operation and potential
damage when the temperature of the pool water falls below 52° F, ±3° F (11° C, ±1.67°
C), the temperature sensor switches the IntelliChlor SCG off, illuminates the COLD
WATER light and no chlorine will be produced.
• Salt Sensor: Two (2) salt sensor probes in the IntelliChlor SCG are activated each time
the IntelliChlor SCG is switched on and again during every 12 hours of operation. At
each of those times, the salt level LED indicator lights flash in a scrolling sequence for
two (2) minutes to indicate that the IntelliChlor SCG is in analysis mode. After two (2)
minutes, the LED indicators lights will signal one (1) of three (3) salinity ranges. For more
information, see "Salt Level Status LEDs" on page 7.
Note: The salt sensor reading is within +/- 500 ppm accuracy.
