  • Page 2 Slight discomfort may be felt in cuts, sores, or sensitive skin areas due to chlorine concentration and the electrolysis process. WARNING: DO NOT insert objects into, or tamper with the MegaChlor cell in any way. Inserting metal objects into the cell body may cause damage and void the warranty.
  • Page 3 A minimum of only 2.5 cups of salt per 100 gallons of water is all it takes for MegaChlor to produce fresh, pure chlorine leaving your water clean and clear day after day! WATER PREPARATION &...
  • Page 4: Adding Salt

    The MegaChlor can handle any salt level and a good target is 3000 PPM. If the salt is lower that will reduce the efficiency of the chlorine generation and may lead to low chlorine levels. You may be able to taste the salt above 3500 PPM.
  • Page 5 MegaChlor Installation MegaChlor is equipped with a 110/220 VAC Auto-Sensing Power Supply allowing MegaChlor to be installed on almost any pool or spa. Please follow the installation instructions below. The power supply is not an outdoor supply and needs to have protection from the environment.
  • Page 6 MegaChlor Cell Installation The MegaChlor cell will hang over the edge of the pool or spa and hang down into the water. Find a location where the cell will be at least 1” from the side of the pool or spa and for best results as deep as possible. The deeper the cell is the more time the chlorine has to dissolve into the water before reaching the surface.
  • Page 7 MegaChlor Inline Installation The MegaChlor electrode can be removed from the cell and installed into an inline cell that is with the main plumbing of the pool or spa. Use the following guidelines when installing: 1. Do not install into the main circulation flow, that will damage the electrode. Only install into a bypass.
  • Page 8 Making Chlorine (Salt Level Indication) MegaChlor will indicate if the salt level is low or normal. If it is low that is OK, you could add more salt if you want but not required. The MegaChlor has constant current mode of operation meaning that if the salt is high the output will adjust to protect the cell and the power supply.
  • Page 9 MegaChlor includes 10 power level settings that need to be set based on water volume, usage and testing. MegaChlor is set to power level 3 straight from the factory. The output power to the cell is always the same, the power levels change the amount of time the cell is energized every three hours. At the start of the three hour period the cell will be energized and then after the time indicated by the power level the cell will be put into standby mode and stop producing chlorine and at the start of the next 3 hour period will repeat.
