2.2. ELECTROLYSIS CELL
The electrolysis cell is made of a transparent polymer in whose interior the electrodes are
placed. The electrolysis cell must be always installed indoors and after the pool filter, and
after any heating equipment that may be present (heat pumps, oil boilers, etc.).
The installation of the cell should allow easy access to the installed electrodes by the user. It
is highly recommended to install the electrolysis cell VERTICALLY [models D-10+ ... D-25+]
or HORIZONTALLY [model D-40(+)], in a place of the pipe that can be easily isolated from
the rest of the installation by two valves, so that the tasks of maintenance can be carried out
with no need of partial or total draining of the swimming pool.
Where the cell is installed on a by-pass (recommended option), a valve to regulate the flow
must be introduced. Prior to installation, please consider the following commentaries might be
considered:
o Flow direction marked in the cell must be
respected.
o Recirculation system must guarantee the
minimum flow stated in the Table of
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS for each
model (see Section 1.3).
o The system flow detector (1) activates if there
is not recirculation (flow) of water through the
cell or if flow is very low. If electrolysis gases
are not properly removed through the
electrolysis cell, the generated gas bubble
electrically isolates the auxiliary electrode
(electronic detection). Therefore, when
locating the electrodes in the cell, the level
probe (auxiliary electrode) will have to be
located in the higher area of the cell. The
safest orientation is shown in the
recommended installation diagram. In order to
avoid an excessive vibration of the electrodes,
these will have to be arranged inside the cell in
parallel to the water flow (2).
