4.2 I Adding salt

Every device operates with a recommended minimum salt rati o, see "1.2.1 Chlorinator".
In order for the chlorinator appliance to operate properly, and to protect the equipment, we
recommend using salt (sodium chloride) as per standard EN 16401.

4.2.2 Regular analyses
Check the salt level every three months to readjust the missing quanti ty of salt if necessary.
==> Method for adding salt to water
• Start the fi lter pump to circulate the pool water.
• If the salt chlorinator is already installed, power it down.
• Poor the necessary amount of salt into the water while moving around the pool. To facilitate dissoluti on,
poor it in stages. It is easier to add the missing amount of salt than to dilute it if there is too much.
• Run the fi lter pump for 24 hours.
• Aft er 24 hours, check that the salt rati o in the pool is correct, i.e. at 4 grammes per litre of water (in the
above menti oned example).
• If the salt rati o is correct and the appliance is already installed, switch it on then adjust its chlorine
producti on to the desired level, see 5.4.2 Adjusti ng the chlorine producti on.
Do not add the salt directly to the skimmer.
The appliance must only be started up once the salt has completely dissolved in the pool.
50m x 4 grammes of salt = 200 kg of salt to add to the water.
