Minimum filtration operating time depending on water temperature :
Temperature in °C
The first chlorine production setting required to process the water in your pool depends on the volume of water in the pool
and on its chemical properties. The correct setting can only be obtained by trial and error.
•
Make sure that the concentration of salt in your pool is close to 3.5g/L.
•
Set the chlorine production of your chlorinator at 80% for 24 hours.
•
Test the free chlorine rate by taking a sample from the middle of the pool.
•
If the chlorine rate is higher than 1.5 ppm reduce the production of chlorine by 10%.
•
If the chlorine rate is lower than 1 ppm increase the production of chlorine by 10%.
•
Proceed the same way until the chlorine content is between 1ppm and 1.5ppm.
The free chlorine rate in the pool must be between 1mg/litre (1ppm) and 1,5mg/litre (1,5ppm). It is necessary to
proceed with analysis in the middle of the pool as the free chlorine rate inside the cell is high.

8 Maintenance and troubleshooting

8.1 Weekly checkings

Checking the pH
Make sure that the pH rate always remains between 7 and 7.4.
Checking the chlorine rate
If the chlorine rate is above or below the required values (1 and 1.5mg/l) adjust your chlorinator's production rate using the
production section menu.

8.2 Monthly checkings

Checking the salt rate
Your chlorinator must operate with a salt rate of 3.5g/L. In enclosed premises, there is no need to add any salt even if some
of the salt is eliminated by splashes and when cleaning the filter. Check the salt rate once a month using the adpated Aqualux
analysis kit (ref. TASELB).
Only use Aqualux electrolysis salt that complies with the standard EN 973 – Type A.
Checking the stabilizer rate
A chlorine stabilizer rate between 25 and 50 mg/l prevents the quick deterioration of the chlorine produced by the
AQUALUX chlorinator, especially in very sunny periods. If you are using fresh water, the stabilizer content is zero. Intensive
chlorination using a stabilized product generally allows getting a sufficient stabilizer rate inside the pool.

8.3 Mid-season checkings

Intensive chlorination of the pool
In mid-season, it is important to proceed with an intensive chlorination of your pool. Proceed as follows :
•
Switch off the electric power supply and close your AQUALUX chlorinator's by-pass so as to avoid damaging the
cell during the intensive chlorination.
•
Check that pH is between 7,0 and 7,4.
•
Check the stabilizer rate in the pool.
If the stabilizer rate is between 25mg/l and 50 mg/l proceed with an intensive chlorination using a non-
o
stabilized product (Moonipo)
If the stabilizer rate is below 25mg/l proceed with an intensive chlorination using a stabilized product
o
(Moondifix 56%)
Always proceed with intensive chlorination in the evening and let your pool's filter pump run until the next day. Do
not cover your pool with a bubble cover until the following day.
