The relationship between the g/h and the volume of pool for which the salt electrolysis can be used, is relative. Beniferro defines that per 30m³ of swimming pool volume, 10 g/h chlorine needs to be produced to be able to keep the pool clean and healthy with a water treatment operation time of 8 hours.

and/or broken probes . For any maintenance and repair work, please ensure to keep probs moist. • Use only city water, no rainwater or well water. Calibration With the following steps, you will have calibrated the electrodes in no time: There are 2 ways to calibrate: Calibration via calibration fluid 1.
Page 11
<- A timer stops after 120 seconds and indicates whether the calibration was successful If the calibration is not successful, the following message is displayed -> Reasons for a failed calibration: - Poor calibration (try again) - The calibration fluid is contaminated (replace the liquid). Recalibrate - Probe defective (replace the probe) and recalibrate.

- If you decide to use this dosing method, the injection point for pH and chlorine should be at least 2 metres apart. First, adjust the pH for at least 5 minutes. • Wait for 30 seconds. • If the pH has reached the desired level, then adjust the redox (for at least 5 minutes). If after 5 minutes the pH is off-target again, stop the redox adjustment and proceed with pH adjustment.

Press the bottom button. The "PH SP" setting is now activated. Press the center button to activate this setting. You will now see a preset value. Now you can move the value up or down with the top or bottom key. Then confirm with the middle button. The value is now set according to your needs.
Page 15
The alarm screen shows the following: - pH too high (pH >8.5) - pH too low (pH<5.5) - pH setpoint not r eached after 200 minutes of dosing - Redox too low (<100) - Rx Setpoint not reached make 400 minutes dosage The alarm function is necessary to warn the user of abnormal behaviour of the unit and to prevent a very large dose of a pH liquid from being dosed or from dosing or...
Page 16
You might receive a warning even if your pH or RX appears to be at an optimal value. This is because the warning indicates the current pH or RX value, which could have been higher or lower than the optimal level earlier. The device activates the alarm to halt dosing when the level becomes too high.
Page 17
Make sure that the dosing nipples for acid and chlorine do not leak and that acid and chlorine are dosed effectively. Verify Regularly check the operation of the probes and the settings by measuring the pH value and the chlorine content using an alternative method (colour measurement). If necessary, adjust the set values of the system.
Page 18
As an extra safety measure, we recommend that you do not lower the suction cup to the bottom of the jerry can when you launch it If something goes wrong with the dosage, the whole can of acid is not pumped into the pool Read the safety instructions carefully before using chemicals.
Page 19
After this verification: Always take samples in the pool just before the skimmer, so that the sample corresponds to the water passing by the electrodes. 1 Recalibrate and remeasure pH with probe. If in doubt: 2 Check and adjust the alkalinity of your water between 80 and 120 and remeasure the pH with your color method.
Page 20
Make sure leaks cannot run over (other) parts of the swimming pool equipment. Make sure leaks are captured into a separate container or drip tray. Start up Start up the filterpump, and switch on the power to the water treatment unit. As soon as flow is detected, the unit will start up.

Deviation of the pH measurement compared with another method. When working with probes, one must accept the following as true: - In principle, a calibrated probe measures correctly, more correctly than a color method. - A probe that calibrates itself works - The color method works correctly, only if the alkalinity of the water is correct - A difference of 0.2 between two methods is normal, a difference of 0.5 is not acceptable.
Page 22
You can test this by mixing 5 drops of liquid chlorine in a bucket of water and measuring the redox before and after adding the chlorine. Due to the 5 drops, the Redox must rise significantly. A deviating redox can be caused by a deviating pH and/or by "contaminants" in the swimming pool such as flocculant, anti-algae, wall cleaner, etc ...

Connect the level switch For units manufactured in 2020 or later, 2 level switches can be mounted on the unit. On the circuit board with the display, the connections "WLH" and "WLL" are located in the middle and bottom right. These are connected to the 2 contacts of the level switch. Connect the WLH connection to the level switch in the acid tank and the WLL connection to the level switch in the chlorine tank.

The saturation index (SI) is related to the calcium and alkali amount in the pool water, it is an indicator if the water is balanced in a swimming pool. The SI is between 0~0.2 or -0.2~0, water quality in the pool is perfectly balanced; if the IS is higher than 0.2 or lower than - 0.2, the water may cause damage or corrosion to the pool and pool equipment’s.

The pump peristaltic tube has to be greased regularly with silicone grease. Verify that the tube feels greasy each 2 months. The pump peristaltic tube has a lifetime of 500/600 operating hours and must be replaced annually. The inlet and dosing pipelines must be replaced every two years. As part of the maintenance, verify the integrity of the suction foot and injection nozzle.
Page 32
residues or contaminants are flushed away, preparing the pumps for further cleaning and use. A next step in this process is removing the white peristaltic tubing from the roller assembly. This is an important step to ensure that the tubing can be thoroughly cleaned and inspected.
