Your VX7T Salt Chlorine Generator will always attempt to adjust the output so that the actual output level matches set point
level. At times when the Chlorine output level is lower than the set point, check the salt level in your swimming pool at your
local pool shop. Alternatively, you may have a low voltage supply to the chlorinator (less than 240V) or the water may be
colder than usual.
Maximum efficiency will be achieved from your chlorinator at the following levels:
Water at 27° C
Voltage at 240V
Salt Level at 4000 ppm
3.2 SAFETY BACKWASH
When backwashing your sand filter, the pool water does not pass through the cell. During the backwash and rinse process,
most chlorinators will build-up potentially explosive hydrogen gas in the Chlorinator Cell.
The Safety Backwash function allows the pump to turn on without applying power to the Chlorinator Cell. This prevents the
build-up of hydrogen gas during the back wash and rinse process. In addition, the Safety Backwash function has set run times
after which the pump will automatically turn off. This will prevent extended backwashing and potential excessive water loss
from the pool.
To Back Wash and Rinse your filter follow these steps:
1. Press the pool mode button to the “off/standby” mode
2. Turn the Multiport Valve to “Backwash” position
3. Press the Safety backwash button on the user panel – the pump will now start without applying power to the
chlorinator cell
a. Press once for one minute pump operation
