  • Page 8: Installation

    Once mounted you can connect your swimming pool pump power cable to the power socket located at the bottom of the chlorinator control unit. Your Innowater chlorinator is designed to automate your pool pump operation.
  • Page 9 If an automatic pH regulation system has been installed, the injection of the acid must take place unconditionally after the cell. Otherwise, the electrodes will corrode due to the acid contact and the warranty will be void. Do not place the acid tank near the chlorinator with insufficient ventilation as the gases will corrode the electronic components quickly.

    Cell Insert the cell in the cell housing making sure that its open side window is pointing to the side water inlet. Make sure the O-ring is fitted correctly and tighten the thread. Then, connect the cell cable connector to the cell terminals. Verify that the connector is orientated so that its small hole is aligned with the thin pin on the cell before trying to plug the connector.

    7. ADDING SALT The chlorinator must remain OFF during this operation and until the additive is completely dissolved. Operating the chlorinator with non dissolved salt could irreversibly damage the cell and the power supply, and lead to a void of the warranty. Calculate the volume of the swimming pool and add 5 to 6 Kg of salt per cubic meter.

    8. OPERATION The chlorinator and its different menus are controlled with a four key keypad. Three of these keys, Λ , MENU and OK, also have a secondary function accessible by pressing and holding down the corresponding key for 2 seconds NOTE: At some points of activity or during a change of function the keyboard may seem as it is not responding immediately.

    8.2 Shock Function The shock function allows you to apply a shock treatment (chlorinator at 100%) for a selectable period of time with automatic return to the previous production rate once the shock period has ended. This feature is useful if the chlorine level has fallen suddenly for some reason and you want to recover it quickly.
  • Page 14 Λ V Use the arrows to choose the language and press OK. 9.2 Menu 2—Polarity period. MAIN MENU Select polarity 2 Polarity per. Every 8 h The polarity applied to the cell is periodically reversed to remove calcium build-up. The factory pre-programmed period is 8 hours and this is recommended. Depending on the conditions of your pool it may be necessary to reduce this period in order to increase the frequency of cleaning.
  • Page 15 3 Production active Choose with the arrows the production percentage when the external control signal is active. NOTA: If you are using an Innowater chlorine or redox controller, configure the chlorinator and the controller as follows: Chlorinator: Controller: External control:...

    9.6 pH Function (optional) This function allows the pH to be measured and to be MAIN MENU regulated with the wireless acid pump. Read the pH 6 pH Function Wireless Function manual to use the function. 9.7 Redox Control Function (optional) This function allows the RX potential to be measured MAIN MENU and chlorinator production to be automatically con-...
  • Page 17 Production Salt low This message is displayed when the electric current through the cell is lower than the expected value what limits the chlorine production. This can be due to a low salt concentration, a worn cell or, in general, to any means which limits the electric cur- rent through the cell: calcium build up, air bubbles, water too cold, low water level, etc.
  • Page 18: Recommendations And Warnings

    11. RECOMMENDATIONS AND WARNINGS The bipolar cells of your Innowater chlorinator have been manufactured using an exclusive technique and rigorous quality controls conferring extraordinary duration and resistance. However, there are several factors that may irreversibly reduce the properties of any electrode that you should avoid in order to obtain the best performance and longest lifespan of your chlorinator.
  • Page 19: Spare Parts

    Spare parts Innowater have spare parts available at your disposal via a network of pool shops around the world. The use of non-original parts or the manipulation of the equipment by personnel not authorised by Innowater may cause serious problems to your chlorinator and will void the warranty.
