  • Page 4: Operation

    The operation requires a low concentration of salt (sodium chloride) in the pool water. These levels are low enough that it normally will not be tasted. The Aqua Rite automati- cally sanitizes your pool by converting the salt into free chlorine which kills bacteria and algae in the pool.
  • Page 5: Water Chemistry

    Your Authorized Aqua Rite Dealer (AARD) or most pool stores can provide you with the chemicals and procedures to adjust the water chemistry. Be sure to tell the pool store that you are using an Aqua Rite chlorine generator. Saturation index The saturation index (Si) relates to the calcium and alkalinity in the water and is an indicator of the pool water "balance".
  • Page 6 If the level is low, determine the number of gallons in the pool and add salt according to the chart on page 4. A low salt level will reduce the efficiency of the Aqua Rite and result in low chlorine production. A high salt level can cause the Aqua Rite ® ®...

    Aqua Rite has stopped generating chlorine. A flashing LED indicates a 15-60 second time delay period. CHECK SALT When flashing, the salt level is low (below 2700 ppm) and Aqua Rite is generating at low efficiency. When illuminated steady, the salt level is too low and Aqua Rite has shut down.

    When connected to a pool automation control (Goldline Pro Logic, Pentair Intellitouch or Polaris Eos): The Aqua Rite is designed to operate with all pool automation controls. The Pro Logic, Intellitouch or Eos can fully control the function of the Aqua Rite chlorinator in addition to the other pool equipment.

    Aqua Rite system. Mounting the Aqua Rite Control The Aqua Rite is contained in a raintight enclosure that is suitable for outdoor mount- ing. The control must be mounted a minimum of 5 ft. (2 meters) horizontal distance (or more, if local codes require) from the pool/spa.

    ® local potable water supply. Consult local plumbing codes. The Aqua Rite is packaged with a flow switch and cell unions. The cell must be pur- chased separately. Refer to page 1 for information about available chlorinator cells. The flow switch and cell should be plumbed in the return line to the pool/spa. The preferred installation is after (downstream) all the pool equipment (filter, heater, solar, etc.).

    Input Power For stand alone operation: Wire the Aqua Rite to the LOAD SIDE of the filter pump timer. It is very important that the Aqua Rite is powered only when the pump is running.
  • Page 16 The Goldline, Pentair and Polaris controls use a 4 wire connection to communicate to the Aqua Rite and can be wired up to 500' apart. Any outdoor rated 4 conductor cable can be used. Refer to each manufacturer's instructions and the wiring diagrams below for proper wiring connection to the Aqua Rite.

    Aqua Rite control. Verify input voltage with a voltmeter. If there is input power, the fuse may have blown. The Aqua Rite is protected by a 20 amp mini ATO fuse located on the circuit board above the cell connector.
  • Page 18 - Salt level too high (High Salt LED on). - Very warm pools increase chlorine demand--increase Output %, or filter run time. - Cold water (below 50ºF) causes Aqua Rite to stop generating (Generating LED flash- ing). - Excessive scaling on cell.
