Page 24
Section 13. General Maintenance
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by AstralPool, its service agent or a similarly
qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
WARNING
Operating the chlorinator with less than 3,000 ppm
of dissolved salt in the water may cause damage to
the cell and will void the warranty.
Never start the chlorinator, until the correct
quantity of salt has been added and dissolved in
your pool water.
13.1 Cell Maintenance
Your Viron eQ Chlorinator has an automatic
cleaning feature, that under normal conditions, will
keep the cell plates clear of deposits of salt and
calcium.
The cell has a negative charge sensor that
monitors the flow and salt levels of the water. This
sensor is designed to be fail safe. As it is negative
charge deposits of calcium or other debris that
may be deposited on it, causing an indication of
low salt or no flow condition.
Should a low salt condition be indicated, have your
salt level checked at your local pool shop. If the
low salt condition persists, or a no flow condition is
indicated when the supply pump is operating, you
may need to manually clean your Viron Chlorinator
Cell. See Section 11 for cleaning instructions.
13.2 Maintenance Schedule
The Viron eQ Chlorinator has high velocity water
with chemicals in it. Some of these parts will
wear in the normal course of use and require
regular checks and maintenance.Performing these
checks and maintenance will identify parts that
have worn and require repair/replacement before
further serious damage is sustained. A small
amount of regular care and attention to your pool
equipment will help ensure long life and trouble
free performance.
To protect against extremes of temperature, your
unit is vented to allow the electronics to cool.
Ants and some insects are often attracted to the
warmer, dry environment inside the enclosure. We
recommend that, with power turned off, you spray
a surface insecticide on the surfaces surrounding
the control to prevent ant and insect ingress.
Repeat every three months or as necessary.
NOTE: Regular maintenance is important to ensure
long life and trouble free performance of your
pool equipment. If unable to perform the
maintenance yourself, contact your local pool
professional to request assistance with the
maintenance.
