Page 8: Installation Instructions
Beware of corrosive atmosphere formation due to pH decreasing solutions (specially, those ones based on hydrochloric acid "HCl". Do not install the IDEGIS SYSTEM near to any stores of these chemicals. We strongly recommend the use of chemicals based on sodium bisulphate or diluted sulphuric acid. -
Page 10: Electrolysis Cell
2.2. ELECTROLYSIS CELL The electrolysis cell is made of a transparent polymer in whose interior the electrodes are placed. The electrolysis cell must be always installed indoors and after the pool filter, and after any heating equipment that may be present (heat pumps, oil boilers, etc.). The installation of the cell should allow easy access to the installed electrodes by the user. - Page 11 • WARNING : if the in-out valves of the electrolysis cell are closed simultaneously, the flow detector will not work correctly, with the consequent risk of cell breakdown. Although this situation is extremely unusual, it can be easily avoided once the equipment has been installed, by locking at opened position the return valve to the swimming pool, so it cannot accidentally be manipulated.

Next, tighten the holder until the electrode is properly fixed The electrodes must be installed in the holder so that it is guaranteed that the sensor located in their ends are always submerged in the water circulating... - Page 13 IMPORTANT: due to relatively high current intensity circulating do not modify or cut either the length or section of the supplied cables without making a previous consultation to an authorized IDEGIS distributor. The connection cable cell-power supply must necessarily be of the section recommended in this...

Page 14: System Description
3.- SYSTEM DESCRIPTION When an IDEGIS SALT ELECTROLYSIS SYSTEM is installed, a quantity of salt is dissolved into the swimming pool water. This salty water then passes through the electrolysis cell that is located in the plant room. When a weak electrical current is passed through the plates inside the electrolysis cell, chlorine is produced. -
Page 15: Power Supply Description
3.1. POWER SUPPLY DESCRIPTION ELECTROLYSIS SYSTEM Total (g): grams of chlorine generated since the connection of the unit (total count is reseted at 0:00 am). Set-point: shows the programmed chlorine production in grams/hour. Flow (g/h): shows the chlorine production expressed in grams of chlorine/hour. - Page 16 System Info: shows different system information and warnings Run key: press this key to RUN the selected program. Selection keys: allow to select the different configuration parameters of the system. Program key: press this key to access to program menus. Stop key: press this key to STOP the program.
- Page 17 CONTROL LINK: indicates if ORP controller is linked to the electrolysis control board. Indication LED of anomalous ORP value: alarm LEDs are activated automatically when the readings are outside the prefixed range (650-850 mV). For security reasons, the controller turns-off the control output when upper limit (850 mV) is exceeded.

Only pH values in the range 7.0 – 7.8 will be able to be input. 5.2.2. SELECTION OF THE PRODUCT TO DOSE (ACID or ALKALI) The IDEGIS SALT ELECTROLYSIS SYSTEM with INTEGRATED pH/ORP CONTROL has been factory set so that it can be used in the majority of existing pools without the need to modify the internal settings. -
Page 26: Integrated Orp Controller
The integrated ORP controller is supplied with the following default programming parameters. SET POINT = 750 mV IMPORTANT: 1. Before connecting the IDEGIS SYSTEM, check pH, alkalinity, stabiliser (cyanuric acid) and free chlorine levels are inside the recommended ranges: pH: 7.2 –7.6. - Page 27 PARAMETER Free chlorine + mV - mV Combined chlorine - mV + mV - mV + mV Stabiliser (isocyanuric acid)) - mV + mV TDS (total dissolved solids) - mV + mV Temperature + mV - mV 7. In case it was necessary to add stabiliser to the water, it should be taken into account that its employment in concentrations higher than 30-40 ppm produces a very significant decrease of the ORP values (mV) obtained for a given concentration of free chlorine.

Page 31: Maintenance
6.- MAINTENANCE 6.1. CHLORINE LEVEL CONTROL IN THE POOL In periods of warm weather, it may be necessary to extend the daily operation time of the salt chlorinator, since the generated chlorine decomposes more quickly in elevated water temperatures and with the increase of the solar radiation. Chlorine demand (the amount of chlorine required) also increases with the amount of swimmers using the pool (deriving in greater levels of organic matter). -
Page 32: Maintenance Of The Electrolysis Cell
– the electrodes do have a finite life. In order to optimise electrode lifetime, please consider the following: o Although all IDEGIS salt electrolysis units are SELF-CLEANING, a prolonged operation of the system at pH values over 7.6 in waters of high hardness can produce scale formation on the surface of the electrodes. -
Page 33: Ph Electrode Calibration
6.4. pH-ELECTRODE CALIBRATION The recalibration frequency of the unit will have to be determined in each particular application. However, we recommend carrying out it at least once a month during the period of use of the swimming pool. The integrated pH-controller has two calibration modes of the pH-electrode: “FAST”... - Page 34 6.4.2. “STANDARD MODE” “STANDARD” MODE allows the precise calibration of the pH-electrode using two calibration solutions of pH 7.0 and 4.0, however this method requires that the pH-electrode is removed from the installation. PROCEDURE: IMPORTANT: before closing the by-pass valves, press “STOP” in the Control Panel of the unit Extract the pH-electrode from the holder and wash it with tap water.

NOTES ON CALIBRATION: If the calibration process is interrupted for whatever reason, the pH- controller will automatically leave the calibration mode if the intervention of the user is not detected in a few seconds. In this case, “E1” indication in green display will appear. -
