plumbing as shown above in Figure 3.
2E-2. Water Backflow Check Valve
If the pool equipment is mounted above the water
line, a check valve must be installed between the
pump outlet and the Injector Manifold to prevent the
pump from draining and losing its prime (when not
in use).
Note: If a 1/3# DELCheck
immediately after chlorine feeders.

SECTION 3 Operation

3A. Initial System Start-Up
Upon completing all of the system connections and
cleaning the pool as outlined in Section 2, you are
ready to start the Solar Eclipse.
1. Check electrical connections.
2. Turn on pool circulation system and verify the
Solar Eclipse has power.
3. Remove cover. Confirm that fittings are not
leaking, contact Tech Support (Section 6A) if
leaks are found.
4. Replace cover.
3B. Normal Operation
Indicator Lights: The Solar Eclipse has two
external indicator lights, red and green, on its
left side. When the Solar Eclipse has power, the
green Power Light will illuminate. The red Vacuum
Indicator may be on momentarily. Once adequate
water is flowing and vacuum is established, the
red Vacuum Indicator will go out. If the red Vacuum
Indicator light is still lit after the pump has reached
steady flow, refer to Trouble Shooting (Section 5).
3C. System Shut-Down
The following sequence of steps must be followed
for servicing or for storage.
1. Shut off power at the breaker.
2. Shut off water to the unit.
3. Remove Cover if servicing.
4. Disconnect all electrical, plumbing, and
mounting connections for storage.
3D. Winterizing
If the pool will be shutting down for the winter
months and the Solar Eclipse will remain exposed
to freezing temperatures, the unit must be
drained to prevent freeze damage to the wetted
components. To drain the Solar Eclipse, follow the
is used, do not install
TM
steps below.
1. Remove the Cover.
2. Fully loosen the black Union Fitting at the
bottom of the UV Reactor.
3. Gently separate the Injector Manifold from the
UV Reactor to allow the water to drain out of
the drain holes in the bottom of the enclosure.
4. Allow all the water to drain from the Solar
Eclipse before tightening the black union fitting
to reconnect the Injector Manifold to the UV
Reactor. Make sure the union o-ring is properly
seated in its groove before tightening.
3E. Water Chemistry
Regular chlorine testing should be performed as
normal. Ozone will be eliminating the majority of
contaminants. Therefore, only a small amount of
chemicals will need to be added – just enough to
maintain a residual level of 0.5 - 1.0 ppm chlorine.
Ozone is pH neutral and will not cause pH or total
alkalinity fluctuations.
SECTION 4 Maintenance & Service
4A. System Electromechanical Overview
Refer to Figures 4, 5, and 6.
4A-1. Ozone Module
The Solar Eclipse is constructed with 6 Corona
Discharge Ozone Modules. Each Ozone Module
has a green light to indicate that the Ozone Power
Supply is operating properly. (Refer to Figure 5 for
a more detailed view)
4A-2. Ultraviolet Lamps
There are two lamps in the UV Reactor of the Solar
Eclipse. If the UV Lamp Access Panel is removed
while the unit is running, a slight glow can be seen
near the top of the lamps. (Refer to Figure 6 for a
more detailed view)
4A-3. Injector Manifold
Water flowing through the Injector Manifold
generates the vacuum that draws ozone into
the water. The DELCheck™ spring loaded valve
automatically adjusts for various water flow rates to
keep the Solar Eclipse operating over a wide range
of conditions.
4A-4. Ozone Gas Line
Gas from the Ozone Modules is drawn through the
Ozone Gas Line by the Injector and into the water.
