during backwashing and when your pool overflows
due to rain or splashing.
A typical pool of around 50,000 litres requires
200kg of salt to initially set-up the pool to
4,000ppm.
A low salt level warning is indicated on your eQ
Chlorinator if the salt level drops. If Low Salt is
indicated, check again in 24 hours and then if it
is still indicated, add two 20kg bags of salt to the
shallow end of your pool. Run the filtration system
for approx. 6 hours to help mix the salt in the pool.
It can take up to a day for the salt to fully dissolve.
If the low salt light is still on, then you should get
your pool water tested. If the Salinity is above
4,000ppm then you may need to have your
Chlorinator checked.
NOTE: The Low Salt light may appear as the water
temperature decreases. Below 15 degrees
celcius
WARNING
Do not put salt directly in the skimmer box. High concentrations of
salt may cause damage to the controller or other equipment.
6.5 Chlorine Dosing and ORP
The Viron eQ Chlorinator uses an ORP sensor to
measure and control the chlorine levels in your
swimming pool or spa.
Before installing probes, balance pool water. Total
Alkalinity (TA) must be 80 to 120 ppm, Calcium
Hardness should be 180 to 250 ppm, and pH must
be between 7.2 and 7.6.
Dose pool with a small amount of chlorine before
starting the eQ. If no chlorine is sensed the eQ
Chlorinator may go to fail safe mode and not
start up. Some Chlorine should be present before
starting the unit.
The Chlorine sensor will take 45 minutes or more
to accurately sense the chlorine level in the pool.
Allow Pool pump to run for 45 minutes before
attempting to calibrate the sensor to the pool
water.
Confusion often exists about the difference
and relationship between oxidization reduction
potential (ORP) and chlorine levels measured in
parts per million (ppm).
