Preparing The Water

Hayward ® saline chlorination systems operate by electrolyzing sodium chloride, NaCl, (salt that has been added to the pool) to form free chlorine. In order

for the Hayward system to operate, salt must be added directly to the pool at least 24 hours before the system is started.

3.5 kg of salt must be added for every cubic meter of pool water to reach 3.5 g/l and 5 kg of salt must be added for every cubic meter of pool water to

reach 5 g/l. Once the salt has been added, brush the surface of the pool continuously until the salt has dissolved. Never leave large amounts of salt on the

surface of the pool.

Only use pure NaCl. Do not use salt with additives. Contact your Hayward dealer for a list of approved salt.

Your pool water should be balanced in the following range before turning your Hayward system on:

Chlorine:

2 – 5 ppm

Total Chlorine: No more than 0.5 ppm above free chlorine

pH:

7.2 – 7.6

Alkalinity:

80 – 120

Hardness:

200 – 300 ppm

Salt:

3.5 – 5.0 g/l

Cyanuric acid: 20 – 50 ppm (Outdoor Pools only)

Phosphates:

Less than 100 ppb

Temperaure:

3,5 g/l salt - Minimum Temp. - 25 Degrees C

5,0 g/l salt - Minimum Temp. - 15 Degrees C

Maximum Temp. - 40 Degrees C

Starting The System

•

Confirm that the salt concentration is 3.5 to 5.0 g/l.

•

Confirm that the valves to and from the cell are in the open position and water is flowing through the cell tube.

•

Confirm that the unit is plugged in and that the flow switch or controller relay is connected.

The system will begin producing chlorine within 3 minutes.

Chemical Feed Controller: If the Saline C system is linked to a chemical feed controller, adjust the output to maximum, which will allow for full production

every time the controller calls for it. NOTE: The Saline C system connected to a chemical feed controller will only operate when the controller is in feed mode.

Make sure that the chemical feed controller is not set in proportional mode or system damage may occur.

Controlled Manually: If the system is being operated manually, start at 65% output. Over the following days, monitor the pool and increase/decrease the

output in small increments based on the measured chlorine level. It may take several days of to find the ideal output setting.

System Operation

Saline C systems operate when the main power supply cord is plugged in and the system has an input on the control connections from the flow switch and

from a chemical feed controller. The Saline C will continue to operate as long as there are inputs from those two sources.

Output is adjustable from 0 to 100% of the systems rating and is displayed as %

output on the LCD display. To adjust the output, hold the output selector switch

in the up position to increase output or in the down position to decrease output.

NOTE: Any time an output change is made with output selector switch, the Saline

C will record this change in its memory. In order for this to happen, the unit will

wait 2 minutes from the time the change is made and shut down for 1 minute

while it records the change. Output will resume after the 1 minute period.

Low Salt Alarm

In the event that salt falls to a level too low for system operation, the system

will stop generating chlorine and the LCD display will flash "LO SALT". To reset,

correct the salt concentration and hold the output selector in the down position.
