Important safety instructions IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Read and follow all instructions: All electrical work must be performed by a licensed electrician and conform to all national, state, and local codes. Improper use or installation can badly harm the unit and its surroundings. When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following: DO NOT OPEN THE DISPLAY COVER OF THE BOX –...
System Overview TROUBLESHOOTING ................................... 24 SYSTEM OVERVIEW This installation manual is designed for the pool professional. It assumes that installer has a working knowledge of basic pool service operations. It is based on actual field installations and the natural flow of progress found to be most efficient.
Package Contents A simpler "Operation manual" is included for the homeowner. To maximize clients' satisfaction, please instruct the client to read through it and follow its warranty registration instructions to qualify for warranty coverage. Add the salt as soon as you arrive on the job so that it will be dissolved enough to start up the system and instruct the homeowner on its operation before leaving the site.
Plumbing Configurations PLUMBING CONFIGURATIONS CELL PLUMBING (WITHOUT DOSING ACID PUMP) 1. The cell and flow sensor must be installed downstream from the filter and heating devices before any Tees in the return line. The cell may be installed horizontally or vertically as long as is pointing in the flow direction (i.e.
installing the flow sensor INSTALLING THE FLOW SENSOR 1. The flow sensor must be installed before the cell. Make sure that there is no valve between the cell and the flow sensor. The flow sensor may be installed vertically, in an angle, but MUST NOT be installed upside down. This could cause debris to settle in the flow sensor body and restrict the paddle movement.
Cell Plumbing (with a dosing acid pump) U SHAPE PLUMBING CONFIGURAITON 1. Dosing acid pump and saddle 2. Chlorinator cell 3. Flow switch Tee & Temp. sensor 4. ~ 21 inch (54 cm) straight 2" PVC pipe for keeping the cell filled with water when there is no flow in the line.
Mounting the Control Box MOUNTING THE CONTROL BOX 1. The control box must be mounted vertically on a flat surface, and a minimum horizontal distance of 5 ft (1.5m) or more, if local codes require, from the pool/spa. 2. Select a position for you Control Box within 10 ft (3½...
Wiring to Time Device WIRING TO TIME DEVICE CAUTION! Disconnect all power supply to the main timer/main power source before hardwiring the input voltage cables to the timer control box. Hardwire all accessory equipment: Permanent pH, Temp. sensor etc'. and close the access cover before resupplying main voltage to the unit.
Wiring components WIRING COMPONENTS 1. Connect the color coded plugs with matching sockets (Red, blue and white). 2. Stress-relief bushings are already attached to the wire of each accessory. DO NOT REMOVE the bushings from the wire. 3. Remove the nut from the bushing, then insert the wire and bushing through the Control Box and tighten the nut to the bushing of each connection.
Advanced feature wiring ADVANCED FEATURE WIRING POOL COVER The unique pool cover function enables the chlorinator to reduce the chlorine output while the pool is covered. When the pool is cover covers the pool, the chlorinator will automatically reduce its chlorine output to 20% from the maximum level and a "AUX"...
Standby Mode / Installation Test STANDBY MODE / INSTALLATION TEST When the main circulation pump turns off, the system automatically goes into the standby more. This is a safety action that prevents chlorine production without water flowing through the chlorinator cell. Automatic cell cleaning is executed during standby more.
OPERATION TURBO SETTING Press the (Turbo) button. This action increases chlorine production output to 100% for a preset time period. Default is 12 hours. Adjust the time by holding down the buttons. If the salinity level is too low, the solid bars will display the maximum production level the system is reaching, but the 100% bar will blink to show the system is trying to reach the 100% production level.
OPERATION High Salinity Indication Blinking Very High Salt High Salt Icon The system safely operates in up to 6,500ppm of salt, but the "High" salt indicators illuminate to warn against adding more salt. If the High salt indications stay on, a pool professional should test the water and dilute it as necessary.
OPERATION PH REDUCING MODES Ensure the circulation pump is ON, then press the button to go to the "pH Reducing" Modes. pH reducing: Auto Press the buttons to adjust the amount of acid to infuse into the water each week (e.g. 5 Units/Week).
OPERATION PH REDUCING MODES The dosing acid pump ensures the cell remains clean by automatically washing it with acid when the circulation pump is off. The factory preset (Level 9) allows a cell wash after the circulation pump logs at least 6 hours or run time. A small amount of acid is used, so this cleaning function has a very little influence on the pH level in average pools.
Starting Up STARTING UP BEFORE ADDING THE SALT 1. Balance the chemicals: See the section titled "Pool chemistry explained" on page 22 for recommended water balance. This will ensure that the transition to the natural chlorine generator system is quick and reliable. 2.
Starting Up 7. Keep the pump on to circulate the water. 8. Distribute the required amount of salt evenly around the pool. It will take about 8 hours for the salt to disperse evenly in the water. 9. Once the salt has fully dissolved, adjust the chlorinator to the desired setting. Calculating the size of the pool Gallons (dimensions in feet) Liters (dimensions in meters)
Starting Up What type of salt should I use? Good Bad – do not use! The best salt is an evaporated, granulated pool Iodized salt salt 99.9% pure salt Salts with more than 1% anti caking agents (e.g. yellow prussiate of soda or sodium ferrocyanide) – because they contain iron and will yellow the fittings.

Pool Chemistry explained Stabilizers (Cyanuric Acid or Conditioner) is necessary in most outdoor pools to maintain appropriate levels of chlorine. Chlorine stabilizer helps provide an appropriate residual chlorine level in the water. Without stabilizer, UV radiation from the sun will destroy most chlorine within 2 hours, but excessive amounts of stabilizer can decrease the effectiveness of chlorine.
