My Aquarite is not showing salt level in the pool water. I have manually checked the level and it is 2960 ppm. I acid cleaned the chlorinator as it said check chlorinator.

The Goldline Controls Aqua Rite may not be showing the salt level in the pool water due to one of the following reasons:

1. Low or High Salt Level – If the salt level is too low or too high, the system may not function correctly. The ideal salt level is between 2700-3400 ppm, with 3200 ppm being optimal.
2. Aging Chlorinator Cell – An older chlorinator cell may not accurately measure salt levels.
3. Water Chemistry Issues – If the pool water chemistry is not balanced, the system may not display the salt level properly.
4. Sensor or Display Issue – The Salt Display might not be functioning correctly or may require recalibration.
5. Cold Water Temperature – Pool water temperature fluctuations, especially in colder weather, may affect the salt level reading.

Checking and correcting these factors can help restore proper salt level display.

  • 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 Pro automatically sanitizes your pool by converting the salt into free chlorine which kills bacteria and algae in the pool.
  • Page 5: Water Chemistry

    Test your water periodically. Your authorized Aqua Rite Pro dealer 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 Pro chlorine generator.
  • Page 6 4. A low salt level will reduce the efficiency of the Aqua Rite Pro and result in low chlorine production. A high salt level can cause the Aqua Rite Pro to shutdown and may begin to give a salty taste to your pool (generally, the salt will begin to be tasted at a level of about 3500-4000 ppm).
  • Page 9: Controls

    STOP: When in STOP mode, the Aqua Rite Pro is prevented from energizing the electrolytic cell. In this position there is no chlorine generation. NOTE: To service any of the pool equipment or the Aqua Rite Pro, the power must be turned off at the circuit breaker.

If Super Chlorinate is active, the display will show the time remaining until the Aqua Rite Pro will return to the desired output %. This menu is disabled if an AQL-CHEM is used and ORP Auto Sensing is enabled (see AQL- CHEM manual).

    Assuming that the water chemical levels are in the recommended range, there are three factors that you can control which directly contribute to the amount of chlo- rine the Aqua Rite Pro will generate: 1. filter run time each day (hours) 2.
  • Page 15: Operation Operation Maintenance Maintenance

    To maintain maximum performance, it is recommended that you open and visually in- spect the cell every 3 months or after cleaning your filter. The Aqua Rite Pro will remind you to do this by displaying the message “Inspect/Clean Cell” after approximately 500 hours of operation.
  • Page 16: Installation

    Refer to page 2 for recommended chemical levels. The pool's chemistry must be bal- anced BEFORE activating the Aqua Rite Pro. NOTE: If the pool does not have new water, add 1 quart (1 liter) of metal remover and 1 quart (1 liter) of non-copper based algaecide to the pool, per manufacturer's instructions.
  • Page 17: Mounting Mounting Plumbing Plumbing

    Ensure that the Aqua Rite Pro installation does not constitute a cross connection with the local potable water supply. Consult local plumbing codes. The Aqua Rite Pro is packaged with a flow switch and cell unions. The cell must be purchased separately. Refer to page 1 for information about available chlorinator cells.
  • Page 18: Wiring

    Input Power: Wire the Aqua Rite Pro to the LOAD SIDE of the filter pump timer. It is very important that the Aqua Rite Pro is powered only when the pump is running. Note that this circuit must be protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Breaker (GFCB).
  • Page 19 The electrolytic cell and flow switch cables are terminated with connectors which plug into the Aqua Rite Pro for easy attachment and removal. The door of the Aqua Rite Pro must be open and the front panel removed to access the cell cable and flow switch connectors.
  • Page 20 A 4 wire connection is used to communicate to the Aqua Rite(s) and can be wired up to 500' apart. Any outdoor rated 4 conductor cable can be used. Refer to the wiring diagram below and on the following page for proper wiring connection to the Aqua Rite.
  • Page 21: Troubleshooting

    TROUBLESHOOTING Check System Indicator The “CHECK SYSTEM” LED will alert you when the Aqua Rite Pro detects any of the following conditions that are abnormal and require attention for optimal operation of your pool. Press “<“ or “>” to view all of the existing “Check System” conditions.
  • Page 22 • High Salt/Amps/Minerals -- The Aqua Rite Pro will stop generating chlorine under certain high salt conditions in order to protect the internal electronics from damage. The only way to lower the salt level is to partially drain the pool and add fresh water.
  • Page 23 LIMITED WARRANTY (effective 04/01/09) Hayward/Goldline warrants its Pro Logic and E-Command pool automation products as well as its Aqua Rite, Aqua Rite Pro, Aqua Plus and SwimPure chlorination products to be free of defects in materials and workmanship, under normal use and service, for a period of three (3) years. Hayward/Goldline also warrants its Aqua Trol chlorination products to be free of defects in materials and workmanship, under normal use and service for a period of one (1) year.
