The TurboCell (used for chlorine generation) must be plumbed AFTER the filter and heater. If installed on a pool/spa combination system, the cell must be
plumbed BEFORE the pool/spa return valve in order to allow proper chlorination of both the pool and the spa. Refer to plumbing diagram below:
FLOW
SWITCH
12"
min
Flow Switch
before Cell
The cell may be mounted vertically or horizontally, and water can move in either direction through the cell. Install using the 2" unions provided. Tighten unions
BY HAND for a watertight seal. For systems with 1½" plumbing use adapters (provided by installer).
Flow Switch (supplied with P-KIT)
A Hayward flow switch is required if using the optional TurboCell for chlorination or an AQL-CHEM2 for pH dispensing. The flow switch is a safety device that
ensures that water is flowing through the cell before the OmniLogic starts to generate chlorine or dispenses acid.
The flow switch must be plumbed in the same section of plumbing as the TurboCell. Failure to properly install the flow switch can result in explosive gases
accumulating in the pool plumbing system.
IMPORTANT: There must be at least a 12" (30cm) straight pipe run before (upstream) the flow switch. If the switch is plumbed after the cell, the cell can by
counted as the 12" (30cm) of straight pipe.
IMPORTANT: To ensure proper operation, verify that the arrow on the flow switch points in the direction of water flow.
