CHLORINATOR RUNNING TIMES
Chlorinator running times will vary from pool to pool and are dependent upon the situation
they are installed into, pool size and the overall usage of the pool in general. We recommend 2
hours break for every 4 hours of operation to prolong life of the power supply. The chlorinator
should not be run for more than 10 hours continuously. It is recommended not to operate unit
during the hottest part of the day and is preferable to run in early morning or late afternoon to
evening.
Several factors will determine the operational time of the chlorinator to be able to produce
sucient chlorine for your pool’s requirements:
TIME: The longer you run your filter plant and chlorinator, the more chlorine you will produce.
RATE: The higher the chlorine output indicator lights up; the more chlorine is being produced.
CELL CLEANLINESS: The cleaner the cell, the better the chlorine production rate.
BASIC POOL CHEMISTRY: The more correctly maintained, the less chlorine waste.
SUNLIGHT: UV exposure reduces chlorine levels.
POWER SUPPLY CONTROL FUNCTIONS
Your Pixie™ saltwater chlorination system has been designed for simplistic operation and
control. The functions and controls (both standard and optional) and their various operations
will give you a greater understanding and knowledge of the control and maintenance of both
your Pixie™ unit and your pool (refer to Fig. 1 for controls).
CHLORINE CONTROLLER
(FIG. 1, ITEM 5)
The chlorine controller regulates the amount of chlorine production relevant to the position
it has been set to. By adjusting the chlorine controller clockwise, you increase chlorine
manufacture and by turning anti clockwise, you reduce production. Do not attempt to turn
the controller beyond its stops as this could cause damage to your unit that is not covered by
warranty.
