1. WARNINGS Installation and maintenance of any upstream electrical components must be per- formed by a qualified electrician. Failing to do so may result in electric shock, serious injury, property damage and even death. Prior to any maintenance or operation, ensure that the salt chlorinator and any other devices are shut down and the main power supply is off. The salt chlorinator’s external power adaptor must be connected to a main power sup- ply separate from the filtration system (no feedback control), equipped with a 30mA ...

2. DESCRIPTION 3. Operating principle Salt chlorination of a pool works by using salt electrolysis to disinfect the water; this electrochemical process converts the salt present in the water into a disinfectant (hy- pochlorite ions). Once this process is complete, hypochlorite turns back into salt after coming into contact with organic material (bacteria, cells) or under the effect of UV rays or other sources of light, starting the cycle over again. In order to maintain a good level of disinfectant in the water, the following guidelines must be respected: •...
2. DESCRIPTION The controller also warns you when it is time to replace your pH metering pump (pe- ristaltic pump) or any other component. See section «7. Troubleshooting», page 40, for more information. WARNING - Salt water chlorination alone will not clear up green water by itself. In the event of algae appearing (e.g. after a period of high temperatures or frequent use), it may be necessary to supplement with chlorine tablets.
2. DESCRIPTION 5. Recommended rate tables Check your values and correct them at least once a week. Parameter Target values Comments The controller allows you to choose a value between 400 mV and 800 mV. However, it is recommended not to go below 650 (oxidation- mV and not to go above 750 mV.

3. GETTING STARTED 1. Hydraulic installation When you leave the pool, you should install your circulation pump and filtration system first. The chlorinator must always be the last piece of equipment in the hydraulic circuit. The direction of water circulation in Aqualyser must also be respected. If you have other equipment (e.g. a heat pump), be sure to install it upstream of the chlorinator. The Aqualyser FLEX can be turned upside down to adapt to the flow direction of your hydraulic system. However, for Aqualyser TOTAL, the water must enter on the left and leave on the right of the product.
3. GETTING STARTED 2. Electrical installation The ORP controller must be electrically connected to the chlorinator, the pH dosing pump and your circulation pump. Please check that they are correctly installed before starting. The names of the fittings are indicated below them. 1. Connect the pH sensor to the ‘PH’ connector. 2.

5. MAINTENANCE 1. Entretien général Periodic maintenance is very important for long-term operation. These operations must be carried out systematically and meticulously, following the advice below. • Periodically check the level of the tank containing the pH-minus solution, to prevent the dosing pump from running empty. •...
5. MAINTENANCE Procedure : 1. Cut off all power and close the return valves as appropriate. 2. Disconnect the transformer cable. 3. Unscrew the threaded nuts around the PVC fittings that connect the cell to the pipes. 4. Empty the residual water (let it flow into a container to put it back in the pool). 5. Remove the cell completely from the union fittings. DO NOT pull or carry the cell by its cable. 6. Using a cleaning cap (e.g. ref. CL-TSLCAP), plug one end and hold the cell in a verti- cal position, cap down. 7. Pour the descaler directly into the cell until it covers all the plates. 8.
When you want to store the pump (in winter for example) you have to protect the peristaltic hose. It is recommended to dose clean water to avoid the chemical attack of 5. MAINTENANCE the hose when the pump is stored. Rotate the roller holder in clockwise sense to move the pump to the position of the figure in fact it is recommended to not leave pressed the hose near the suction part.
6. DÉPANNAGE In case of green water (coming out of wintering, very high temperature), the electrolyser will not be able to catch up with the water. A one-off addition of chlorine tablets may be necessary. To do this, do not put the chlorine directly into the skimmer, but rather into a floating diffuser.
6. DÉPANNAGE 2. Diagnosis and resolutions Your controller is equipped with a self-diagnosis system for faults and regular mainte- nance tasks. Please refer to the table opposite for more information. Code Error Solution Turn off power. Check wiring/temp. Check the water temperature limits (min/max). The normal ope- rating range for water temperature is between 10°C and 45°C. If your pool water temperature is < 10°C, consider winterizing your product.
Page 47
6. DÉPANNAGE Code Error Solution Check the pump wiring. Check that the suction and discharge pipes do not contain impu- rities. Impurities can damage the pump body pipe and cause an anomaly in the discharge. Check the condition of the pump filter. A clogged filter can cause a decrease in flow. Add salt. The normal operating range for salt concentration is 2700-4500 ppm.
7. WARRANTY Poolstar warrants to the original owner against defects in materials and workmanship of the ORP Controller for a period of five (5) years or 10,000 hours of operation. Probes are consumable components not covered by the warranty. The date on which the guarantee comes into effect is the date of the last invoice. The guarantee does not apply in the following cases: •...
