    The results include elimination of “human error”, accurate and reliable maintenance of chemical levels twenty-four hours a day, compliance with Health Department operating standards, reduced burden on operating staff, and a reduction of chemical usage and costs. The HCC 4000 control- ler and POOLCOMM water quality management website together provide unprecedented control, access and documentation.
  • Page 4 The ideal pH range for pools and spas is 7.4 - 7.6. The HCC 4000 controller is preset from the factory to maintain pH 7.5. If pH is maintained below 7.4 (too acidic), eye irritation, corrosion of equipment, and damage to the pool or spa surface can occur.

  • Page 10 Setpoint To Change The pH Setpoint: The HCC 4000 is programmed at the factory with a default setpoint of pH 7.5. CAT Controllers considers this to be ideal for pool and spa applications. The following steps enable the selection of a different setpoint.

  • Page 12 To Select ORP Feed Mode: The HCC 4000 is programmed at the factory to operate in automatic feed mode as the default set- ting. Other ORP feed mode selections include off (disabled), and manual on for a fixed interval up to 25 minutes after which automatic feed will resume.
  • Page 13 To Change The pH Control Mode: The HCC 4000 is programmed at the factory to operate in the acid feed mode by default (when pH exceeds setpoint, the pH chemical feeder is activated). If the sanitizer or other factors of the application cause the pH to decrease, base feed mode must be selected.
  • Page 14 Priority: The HCC 4000 features a pH Priority setting which will inhibit ORP feed whenever pH is greater than .2 pH from the setpoint. This feature provides an important safeguard when sanitizers with a high pH (such as liquid chlorine) are used. From the Configuration Setup Menu: Press DOWN to find the pH Priority menu item.

  • Page 17 ORP Feed: The HCC 4000 by default uses a time-based proportional feed algorithm which enables the precise control of virtually any body of water. With some types of chemical feeders, however, it is benefi- cial to disable proportional feed and dispense chemicals on a fixed basis. From the Configuration Setup Menu: Press DOWN to find the ORP Feed menu item.

    Overfeed The pH Overfeed timeout occurs when the HCC 4000 has been feeding chemicals for a time greater than the selected maximum feed time and has not reached its setpoint. A properly selected Overfeed timeout prevents the unit from continuing to feed chemicals when the chemical supply has been diminished or a chemical feeder has become clogged or broken.
