4.0 POWER PACK INSTALLATION
4.1 The Evochlor Chlorinator power pack is wall mounted by either using the supplied mounting
bracket or directly hanging on the wall with screws (300mm centres). The power pack is to be
mounted at least 1 metre above the ground and 3 metres or more from the pool edge.
4.2 It is strongly recommended that the power pack be installed where it is protected from the
elements. Rain and sunlight will prematurely age the unit. It should also be mounted in a
position where it is away from accidental water spray. The power pack should be installed so
that adequate airflow can circulate freely around the unit to allow for sufficient ventilation.
4.3 The power pack comes with a standard 230V 10A power cable that is to be connected to
mains power. Plug the power cable into a suitable weatherproof outlet.
4.4 The power pack is fitted with a 230V 10A power socket located on the right-hand underside of
the power pack. The pool pump should be plugged into this socket so that the chlorinator and
pump activate together when the timer switches on at the allocated time settings. In a model
without a timer, the pump and chlorinator are controlled by the on/off switch (7 in Fig. 3).
Failure to plug the pool pump into this socket could lead to the chlorinator staying on with no
water circulation. Without circulation, and in the event of a water probe failure, overheating
and a possible gas build-up may occur. This build-up may damage the cell housing.
4.5 The electrolytic cell cable is connected to the power pack at the junction box on the underside
of the unit. With power off, remove the protective cover from the junction box and insert
the cell cable wires to the terminals, with the thin wire connecting to the middle position.
The screws must be firmly tightened, so there is solid contact between the wires and the
terminals. Replace the protective cover back over the junction box.
