  • Page 4: Introduction

    Congratulations on your recent purchase of a CircuPool EDGE Series Electronic Chlorine Generator. CircuPool’s high performance systems offer escape from the routine of manual pool chlorination and sanitization. The EDGE Series uses a very low level of salt in the pool water to continuously create free chlorine, killing bacteria and algae in the water and helping to maintain a sparkling clean pool.
  • Page 5: System Overview

    EDGE SYSTEM OVERVIEW EDGE The advanced compact salt system utilizes three main components for operation: Complete System Includes: Control Module Flow/Temperature Sensor Electrolytic Cell Control Module: This component supplies power to the cell and allows you to customize the system's operation in order to meet your pool's unique needs.
  • Page 6: Water Chemistry & Salt Levels

    WATER CHEMISTRY & SALT LEVELS Preparing the Pool Water EDGE - SERIES It is important that the pool's water chemistry is balanced before the is powered on and used. In order for the system to be able to work, there must be a minimum level of salt in the pool water, see “Salt Levels”...
  • Page 7: Adding Salt

    Adding Salt IMPORTANT: Before adding salt at any time, ALWAYS perform an independent water test to measure pre-existing salt levels. If the salt level (PPM) in your pool is currently… 1000 1500 2000 2500 3000 3500 4000 4,000 6,000 8,000 10,000 12,000 14,000...
  • Page 8: Ideal Water Chemistry Levels

    Ideal Water Chemistry Levels It is important to maintain these chemistry levels in order to ensure that the pool can be enjoyed safely, to minimize the amount of effort required to sanitize the water, and to prevent corrosion or scaling. The only unique requirement for a pool with a chlorine generator is the low level of salt (salinity) to be maintained in the water.
  • Page 9: Operation

    OPERATION How it works EDGE - SERIES Think of the as a chlorine generator; set it to create a steady supply of chlorine for the pool, instead of buying and adding chlorine by hand. How it works: Using electrolysis, it creates chlorine from the salt molecules (NaCL) in your water in order to sanitize your pool.
  • Page 10: Using The Control Module

    Using the Control Module 1) ON/OFF: Use this button to manually activate / deactivate the system on or off. 2) Adjust (Chlorine Output): Press to change the system's power level setting (the rate of chlorine production), in order to customize operation for your pool's needs. 3) Boost (Chlorine Output): Press to activate/deactivate super-chlorination mode (maximum output for 24 hours of system run time).
  • Page 11: Maintenance

    MAINTENANCE Expected Maintenance Monitor your pool’s salinity level as frequently as you check your other water chemistry levels. After the system has run for a time, your cell will eventually need to be cleaned due to natural mineral scaling. The system will notify you of this by turning on the “CHECK CELL”...
  • Page 12: General Maintenance

    General Maintenance Winterizing Very little chlorine is necessary at low temperatures. The EDGE Series will not produce normal chlorine levels at cold temperatures. This feature extends the lifespan of the Cell. If you “close” your pool for the winter, you can continue to follow all standard procedures for your local area.
  • Page 13 Reprogramming the Control Module When installing a new cell of the same size – or – clearing the flashing Check Cell LED: This procedure will reset the system’s internal count of production hours. This should be done in order to clear the Check Cell light when flashing and any time a new cell (of the same size) is installed. 1.
  • Page 14: Installation

    INSTALLATION EDGE - SERIES IMPORTANT: If you haven’t already done so, it is necessary to balance the pool's water chemistry before the is powered on and used. See pages 6 - 8 for more information. The following are guidelines for the typical installation using 2” plumbing, which should be performed by a qualified individual. If 1.5” plumbing is present, reducers can be used to adapt the system;...
  • Page 15: Installing The Electrolytic Cell And Flow Switch

    Vertical Installation Kits are also available to minimize plumbing space required and increase ease of installation (sold separately, available at www.circupool.com). IMPORTANT: These instructions are for 2” plumbing (typical). For installations using 1 ½" plumbing, you will use 2"- to-1 ½"...
  • Page 16: Installing The Control Module

    Installing the Control Module Mount the Control Module as close to the pump and filtration system as possible. For safety concerns, do not install the Control Module within 10 feet of the pool edges, and follow all applicable codes. Verify that the Cell and Flow Switch cables can reach the Control Module from the section of pipe selected for plumbing.
  • Page 17 Connecting to Power (Continued) Wiring to Power Source: Always double-check the voltage of your power source. Connection to improper voltage can: a) cause severe damage/harm, or b) cause lights and screen to power on without system function. For operation, the Control Module may be wired in to the pump's power source so that both turn on and off together, or energized continuously for use with variable speed pumps (Flow switch will control Cell power but lights will remain on).
  • Page 18: Installation Checklist

    INSTALLATION CHECKLIST □ Cell Unions installed and glued into pipe work. □ Threaded Collars on either side of the Cell are hand tight. □ Flow Switch is installed and oriented properly. □ Control Module is affixed to wall and wired correctly. □...

    HELPFUL HINTS For more detailed information and useful tips, visit www.circupool.com/help. Proper operation of the chlorine generator can be easily verified by checking the lights on the control panel. However, if the pool remains cloudy, or the chlorine residual tests low, then the chlorine being produced is being lost due to high chlorine demand or improper water conditions.
  • Page 20: Troubleshooting

    TROUBLESHOOTING SCENARIO: POSSIBLE CAUSE: SUGGESTED ACTION: Low or no chlorine Insufficient Chlorine Output Level Increase Output Level. This is often required seasonally with increasing temperatures. residual in pool (Also cloudy water, green pool) Insufficient run time Increase run time to at least 1 hour per 10° ambient temp.
