Page 4: Important Safety Instructions
2. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS • To minimise the risk of gas build-up in the cell housing, you must ensure there is sufficient water flow through the cell when the unit is on and producing chlorine. • It is essential that your pool pump circulates sufficient water through the cell housing to completely fill the cell housing with water during the chlorination process. - Page 5 IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR Nipper FACTORS THAT WILL IMPROVE THE PERFORMANCE & LIFE OF YOUR ChloroMatic Nipper. PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR CHLORINATOR POOL BUILDERS: Please cover this information with your customer during the new pool “Handover Session”. Chlorinators are a valuable piece of pool equipment and must be cared for to get the best performance and life span.

Page 6: Common Terms
Select a convenient well-ventilated location within one metre of filter equipment and mount the power supply vertically onto a wall, or post at least as wide as the ChloroMatic Nipper power supply itself. Davey recommends that the power supply shall not be located within 3 meters of the pool water. Plug pump and chlorinator power supply into a suitable weatherproof power outlet/controller. -
Page 7: Connecting The Electrolytic Cell To The Power Supply
4.2 INSTALLING THE CELL The ChloroMatic Nipper cell should always by the last appliance in your system. Ensure the cell is installed after pumps, filters and any heating appliances. To achieve best efficiency, the ChloroMatic Nipper cell should be installed such that turbulent water is limited as much as possible. When installing a 90° elbow before the cell’s inlet barrel union, ensure there’s equivalent to 5 x pipe diameter of straight pipe between the elbow and the union. -
Page 8: Pre-Start Up Procedure
7. PRE-START UP PROCEDURE Before operating your ChloroMatic Nipper salt pool chlorination system, please ensure the following quantity of pool salt has been added to your pool. • POOL SALT: To raise salt Salt required concentration by 30,000L 40,000L 50,000L 60,000L 70,000L 80,000L 90,000L 100,000L... -

ChloroMatic Nipper FEATURES 12.1 CONTROLLING CHLORINE OUTPUT 65% – 09:35 AM AUTO 0N Figure 12.1 The CHLORINE OUTPUT controls the time that the cell is producing chlorine, as a percentage of total time that the ChloroMatic Nipper is on. If the ChloroMatic Nipper cell is producing, it is producing at 100%, unless otherwise altered (see sections WINTER MODE, or SPA MODE). - Page 17 12.2 AUTOMATED TIMERS The ChloroMatic Nipper has two separate timers available for automated operation. This is ideal if looking to run the pool a few hours in the morning, then a few hours in the afternoon. It is important to ensure that the timers do not overlap as this may create confusion when the timer turns on and off.

Once the flow switch registers flow above 3.6m /h (60L/min), the ChloroMatic Nipper will return to normal operation.
- Page 29 ALARM LOW SALT CUT-OUT Figure 12.34 Once the salt concentration is corrected, the LOW SALT CUT-OUT ALARM must be reset by pushing the manual ON/OFF button. Alternatively, the ChloroMatic Nipper will conduct a system check automatically when powered up the next time (if operating via a separate power supply). Upon start-up if the ChloroMatic Nipper registers a salt concentration within range (refer to recommended salt range section in the manual), the ChloroMatic Nipper will return to normal operation.

Method one: Add 1 part HYDROCHLORIC ACID to 10 parts WATER in a suitable container and immerse the cell in this solution. It should not take longer than a few minutes to clean, if it does the cell should be cleaned more frequently. - Page 38 It is important that the correct model ChloroMatic Nipper has been installed on your pool. Many models are available from Davey to cope with small courtyard pools up to commercial size pools. (Consult your local Nipper Dealer for more information).
