Page 5: System Overview
RJ SERIES SYSTEM OVERVIEW RJ-Series The 3 Generation system utilizes three main components for operation: Control Module Electrolytic Cell Flow Switch Control Module: This component supplies power to the Cell and allows you to customize the system's operation in order to meet your pool's unique needs. Electrolytic Cell: This component creates chlorine as the water inside passes through and returns to the pool. -
Page 6: Water Chemistry & Salt Levels
WATER CHEMISTRY & SALT LEVELS Preparing the Pool Water RJ-Series It is important that the pool's water chemistry is balanced before the is powered on and used. In order for the system to be able to work, there must be a minimum level of salt in the pool water, see “Salt Levels”... -
Page 7: Adding Salt
Adding Salt IMPORTANT: Before adding salt at any time, ALWAYS perform an independent water test to measure pre-existing salt levels. If the salt level (PPM) in your pool is currently… 1000 1500 2000 2500 3000 3500 4000 4,000 6,000 8,000 10,000 12,000 14,000... -
Page 8: Ideal Water Chemistry Levels
Ideal Water Chemistry Levels It is important to maintain these chemistry levels in order to ensure that the pool can be enjoyed safely, to minimize the amount of effort required to sanitize the water, and to prevent corrosion or scaling. The only unique requirement for a pool with a chlorine generator is the low level of salt (salinity) to be maintained in the water. -
Page 9: Operation
OPERATION How it works RJ-Series Think of the as a chlorine generator; set it to create a steady supply of chlorine for the pool, instead of buying and adding chlorine by hand. How it works: Using electrolysis, it creates chlorine from the salt molecules (NaCL) in your water in order to sanitize your pool. -
Page 10: Using The Control Module
Using the Control Module CONTROL BUTTONS: 1) ON/OFF : Use this button to manually activate / deactivate the system on or off. 2) Chlorine Output : Use the minus/plus buttons to lower the system's power setting (the rate of chlorine production), in order to customize operation for your pool's needs. -
Page 11: Led Indicator Lights
Controls (continued) LED INDICATOR LIGHTS TIP: All LED indicators get reset when system is powered off. After restoring power, the system will run normally for 1-5 minutes while running diagnostics before displaying any warning lights. Be sure to check system after this point, especially if you were seeing any warning lights prior to turning the system off. -

4) Remove entire Cell from between the unions. DO NOT pull or hold the Cell by its cable. To clean the Cell of mineral buildup: 1) Attach Cleaning Cap or Cleaning Stand (sold separately, available at www.circupool.com) and orient the Cell vertically. Place on the ground and stabilize so as to remain upright and prevent spilling. -
Page 13: General Maintenance
When the titanium blades inside the Electrolytic Cell have reached the end of their lifespan, replacements are readily available so that the whole system does not have to be replaced. Replacements are easily switched out. To ensure quality and value, only genuine CircuPool replacement parts may be used. -

Page 16: Installing The Control Module
Installing the Control Module Mount the Control Module as close to the pump and filtration system as possible. For safety concerns, do not install the Control Module within 10 feet of the pool edges, and follow all applicable codes. Verify that the Cell and Flow Switch cables can reach the Control Module from the section of pipe selected for plumbing. - Page 17 Wiring (Continued) Wiring to Power Source: Always double-check the voltage of your power source. Connection to improper voltage can: a) cause severe damage/harm, or b) cause lights and screen to power on without system function. The RJ-Series is shipped from the factory with a 240 VAC configuration. If 120VAC is needed, move the internal jumpers as shown on page 18 (the white wire on the power cord becomes the neutral).

VOLTAGE CONVERSION Always double-check the voltage of your power source. Connection to improper voltage can: a) cause severe damage/harm, or b) cause lights and screen to power on without system function. All service should only be attempted by a person with appropriate electrical skills, with all equipment disconnected from power. -

HELPFUL HINTS For more detailed information and useful tips, visit www.circupool.com/help. Proper operation of the chlorine generator can be easily verified by checking the lights on the control panel. However, if the pool remains cloudy, or the chlorine residual tests low, then the chlorine being produced is being lost due to high chlorine demand or improper water conditions. -
