5. Operation
5.1 General
If the chlorinator is installed and adjusted cor-
rectly, only the following measures are neces-
sary during operation:
• Check and adjustment of the dosage rate
• Dayly check of tightness
• Function check of the gas warning device
• Change of the gas containers
• Cleaning the strainer in the operation
water line.
• When testing the sprinkler system take
care that the gas cylinders and armatures
don’t get wet unnecessarily. Slip a hose
over the spray nozzles and lead the water
into the sink.
5.2 Start dosing
1 Check that the gas monitoring system is
activated.
2 Open the operating water valves and the
point-of-application.
3 Open the gas supply valves.
4 Open the vacuum control valve.
5 Adjust the dosage
• manually with the knob on the posi-
tioner
• or with the control (the knob must be
pressed).
5.3 Stop dosing
• Close the operating water valves or
• Close the gas supply valves or
• Close the vacuum control valve or
• Stop the dosage
• manually with the knob on the posi-
tioner
• or with the control (the knob must be
pressed).
5.4 Changing gas containers
1 Close the valve of the empty chlorine
cylinder.
2 Close the vacuum control valve (or the
auxiliary valve).
3 Remove the vacuum control valve (or the
auxiliary valve) from the chlorine cylinder.
4 Remove the empty chlorine cylinder,
place and secure a full cylinder.
5 Connect the vacuum control valve (or the
auxiliary valve) to the cylinder valve, using
a new gasket.
6 Open the cylinder valve for a moment and
close again, check for leaks.
7 Open the cylinder valve if the connections
are tight.
8 Open the vacuum control valve (or the
auxiliary valve).
5.5 To stop for extended periods
or maintenance
1 Turn off the gas cylinder valve.
2 Allow the control unit to operate until the
flowmeter float remains on the bottom
stop.

The manometer pointer comes down to 0.
4 Against frost remove all the water from
the water supply and solution line.
WARNING
Danger due to chlorine gas !
Chlorine gas irritates the respiratory tracts.
Contact with chlorine gas in high concentra-
tions irritates and damages the membranes,
respiratory system and the skin. In extreme
cases death can result due to suffocation.
When changing gas containers always put on
your gas mask.
WARNING
Danger due to chemicals !
Testing for chlorine or SO2 gas leaks is
accomplished by introducing ammonia
fumes to the area under test. Any escaping
gas will combine with the ammonia to form
dense white clouds. Liquid ammonia solu-
tion must not be applied directly to the part
being tested. Hold a bottle of 25% ammonia
solution in the vicinity of the part under test.
Ammonia must not be inhaled, splashed or
spilled.
