Waterco Hydrochlor ST I pg 01 What’s In the Box? • Hydrochlor ST Control Unit • Manual Warranty Booklet NOTE: If bought as Salt Water Chlorinator unit, the electrolytic cell is provided in a separate carton. FEATURES Chlorine Generation Through the process of electrolysis, a saline solution pass over an electrolytic cell, then the saline solution is separated into its basic components: chlorine and sodium.
Self-Cleaning Waterco’s Self Clean Salt Cell has the added ability to reverse the polarity of the voltage to clean calcium build up off its electrodes. The Hydrochlor Control Unit power up the salt cell (anode and cathode) and hold an electrical potential difference between them for a designated period of time.
