IMPORTANT NOTICE
FACTORS THAT WILL IMPROVE THE PERFORMANCE
AND LIFE OF YOUR SALT WATER CHLORINATOR
PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR CHLORINATOR
POOL BUILDERS: Please cover this information with your customer during the
new pool “Hand over Session”
Salt Water Chlorinators are a valuable piece of pool sanitising equipment and must be cared for to
get the best performance and life span from it.
There are THREE main factors that will damage your chlorinator and reduce the life of the product.
Please monitor the following factors in accordance with your installation & operating instructions.
1. MAINTAIN OPTIMUM SALT LEVELS:
OPTIMUM SALT LEVELS: 4500-6000ppm
• Run chlorinator at the Optimum Salt Levels stated within this document and on the product to
ensure optimum sanitiser output and cell life.
• Operating this device at low salt levels will damage the cell and reduce its life.
• The control panel displays red LED indicator warnings when the salt levels are low.
• If no action is taken to rectify the salt levels, damage to the cell may result which will not be
covered under warranty.
2. MONITOR & MAINTAIN YOUR CHLORINATOR CELL:
• To keep your salt water chlorinator in the best possible condition, regular monitoring of the
electrolytic cell is recommended. The ‘Cell’ is the unit containing the plates.
• During the chlorination process a white powdery Calcium scale may naturally build up on the
titanium plates in the cell. Monitor the cell to prevent excessive scale build up. Excessive scale
build up will cause damage to your cell, and dramatically reduce its efciency and lifespan.
• Reverse Polarity models are low maintenance models that minimise scale build up.
• The control panel displays red LED indicator warnings when the cell requires cleaning.
• If calcium scale builds up please clean the cell, following the cleaning instructions
provided on page 11.
• NEVER: Use concentrated acid to clean your cell.
• NEVER: Leave cell in cleaning solution for extended periods of time
• NEVER: Use metal implements, scourers or brushes to clean your cell
3. BALANCED POOL WATER CHEMISTRY:
• Salt levels MUST be maintained at 4500-6000ppm for optimum performance and lifespan
• Calcium Hardness levels MUST be kept to ideal ranges of 200-275ppm (for Concrete and
Tiled Pools) and 100-225ppm (for other surfaces) to prevent excessive scale build up and
damage to equipment.
• pH levels MUST be kept to ideal levels to prevent damage to equipment and pool surfaces
and to obtain optimum sanitiser effectiveness.
• Total Alkalinity and Stabiliser levels must also be kept in an ideal range.
Note: Please refer to the RECOMMENDED POOL WATER CHEMISTRY chart on page 14 for
more information.
