4.2. Should you not have a fully operational timer with multiple setting options, then you
will experience difficulties. We recommend that you upgrade to a newer generation
timer.
4.3. Ensure that the current carrying capacity of the circuit breaker feeding the pump, and
now the chlorinator system, is sufficient to carry the additional load.
NOTE: The J200 models require that you upgrade the main circuit breaker which controls the
pump to a 15 amp unit if not so already done. This model has a higher inrush current than its
smaller brother the J100 model.
5. Handing Over to Your Customer
5.1. It is essential that the customer be handed the Owners Manual. It is recommended
that the Customer should sign receipt thereof; this can come back and bite you at
some time in the future if you don’t.
5.2. Fill out the Warranty registration form at the back of the Owners Handbook,
5.2.1. make a copy for customer retention and
5.2.2. send the original off to the address provided on the Warranty registration
form.
5.2.3. Failure to do so will null-en-void the customers Warranty.
5.3. Instruct the Customer on how to operate and maintain the Chlorinator as well as the
water chemistry, also explain the operation of the system, especially;
5.3.1. Power Pack operation and the meter/selector switch relationship.
5.3.2. Electrode maintenance - all models.
5.3.3. Timer settings, especially on the low maintenance self cleaning (SC) models.
5.3.4. Salt Test procedure, when and how to add salt.
5.3.5. Bucket test procedure
5.3.6. Procedures for fault resolution (who do they call if there is a problem)
5.4. Leave the Chlorinator switched off for 24 hours whilst the salt is dissolving. The
pump may be left to run as normal, or until such time as all the salt has dissolved
and has had sufficient time to mix properly with the pool water.
5.5. Ensure that the customer knows to switch it ON after this period has elapsed.
5.6. If you are the contracted installer, contact the customer as a courtesy call to ensure
that the customer has complied with the instructions issued by you.
6. Water Chemistry
6.1. Ensure the Pool Filter is clean. Open inspection of the filter is advised.
6.2. The water must be free of metals and algae, especially, copper and iron. This must
be tested for - Do not make assumptions!
6.3. Super-chlorinate the pool with liquid or granular chlorine too 3ppm free available
chlorine (DPD test method only).
6.4. Ensure minimum salt level 0.6% (6000ppm) by adding minimum 60 kg IODENE
FREE salt per 10 000 litres water. Too little salt will result in premature element
failure and the voiding of the Warranty; ensure that your salt calculation versus pool
size is correct - rather more salt than too little.
6.5. Explain the effects of Over Salt on operation and how to overcome this. Adjust
output selector down, ensuring output meter is below 100% of output, or replenish
with freshwater makeup.
6.6. Ensure Pool is stabilized with Stabiliser (ISO Cyanuric Acid) to 60ppm. Over-
stabilization with Cyanuric Acid could cause sanitizer to become ineffective. Consult
your local pool shop for remedy.
6.7. Calcium hardness is within tolerances. 80 – 140ppm (~ 110ppm)
6.8. COMPATIBLE CHEMICALS - With the chlorinator installed, you should not need
supplementary other chemicals, other than granular chlorine to maintain your pools if
you have complied with the above.
7. Adding Chemicals
