CleanWater Tech CD12 Troubleshooting Manual

Miniseries Ozone Generator Troubleshooting
Please run through all troubleshooting sections to insure proper operation, the
more common symptoms are listed here:
System does not turn on or off when it is supposed to. No lights are
illuminated.
Normally the system will respond by a vacuum switch signal to turn off
•
and on when the vacuum of the venturi is present or not. If there is not
enough or no vacuum at the venturi the system will not respond properly.
Look to the Gauge Readings section of this troubleshooting guide for
o
assistance with this issue, check for leaks and proper gauge readings
and adjust the vacuum switch if needed.
This could be a power supply issue if the unit never turns on, as opposed
•
to never turning off.
o Look to the Display Lights section for assistance with no lights being
illuminated.
Some lights are illuminated, but none are ozone lights.
This is usually a control or circuit board issue.
•
Look to the Display Lights section for assistance.
o
Low ozone output is suspected / Crystals are pink or white in color.
This is normally resolved with maintenance, but there are a few hardware
•
components to check for proper operation.
Look to the Colored Crystals section for assistance.

Troubleshooting Contents:
Display Lights - These LEDs will show the current status of the system and if it is generating ozone
at this moment.
Colored Crystals - In "/AD" systems, colored silica gel crystals are visible through the cover. The
"good" color is blue. In non-/AD systems, the inline particulate filter contains silica gel
beads. We're looking for these beads to be blue in color.
Gauge Readings - If installed, the gauge assembly can tell you the air from the generator is being
drawn into the water at the proper rate. Additionally, the vacuum reading verifies that ambient air is
not blending in at any point, which would reduce the system's effectiveness.
Hardware Inspections - The end of the guide goes over inspection of important components and
inspection in the case of water damage.
Before you start:
When adjusting or replacing components within the ozone generator, turn the system off and deny the power cord connection either at the ozone
•
generator or at the outlet.
When observing operation of boards or other components with the cover removed, a cover safety switch will have to be manually triggered for
•
operation.
When operating with the cover removed, do not come near or in contact with the white wire that connect to the top of a reaction chamber.
o
Do not install or remove circuit boards while the unit is powered. If the unit's model ends in /AD, be aware that at least one of the air dryer
chamber cylinders may be very hot, do not touch them.
Look to the inside of the cover for the peg that normally presses the switch down and install a pencil or something similar to depress the
o
switch to operate with the cover removed.
If you wish to still have display lights illuminated during operation with the cover off the unit, leave the wires connected to the cover and
o
simply hold it elevated, keeping sure to not touch the chassis to the upper area of the reaction chamber. Otherwise, disconnect wires from
the cover (ribbon cable from the control board and ground wire from the cover).
Read through each troubleshooting section before performing the tests to insure the tests are performed correctly the first time.
•
A multi-meter is recommended for some tests, but is not vital to troubleshooting.

Pictured is the CD12/AD, the
components of other Miniseries
systems will be similar, and are
often interchangeable.
