IntelliChlor Installation and Users Guide
Electrolytic Cell Controller
The electrolytic cell controller includes a control panel with buttons and LED indicators to fully control and
produce chlorine. The cell controller measures the water temperature and salt level to optimally produce
chlorine. If the salt level is too low (red on salt display), the cell is turned off until salt is added to the pool. The
controller has a self-cleaning cycle which reverses the cell polarity, reducing calcium buildup. This feature
turns the cell on and off at regular intervals to prevent calcium and scale buildup and further maximizes cell
life.
The electrolytic cell contains the control electronics and bipolar electrodes that perform the electrolysis and
produce chlorine when energized with DC current. Chlorine is generated as pool water containing salt passes
through the cell. The chlorine production can be varied by either adjusting the sanitizer output level on the cell
or by varying the number of hours IntelliChlor is on each day. IntelliChlor automatically cleans the Cell
electrodes once every few hours. This does not interrupt the production of Chlorine. The cell also
contains a mechanical flow sensor to ensure the proper amount of water is passing through the cell to allow
chlorination to occur. The cell automatically measures the water salinity and temperature and displays on the
top of the cell using lights. The cell includes a 15 ft. UL approved four conductor 16 gauge cable for
connection to the Power Center.
Flow Sensor: A cell flow sensor assures that there will always be adequate water flow through the
cell no matter how it is plumbed.
Temperature Sensor: To protect the unit from operation and potential damage, when the
temperature of the water falls below 52° F, the temperature sensor switches the unit off.
Salt Sensor: Two salt sensor probes extend into the cell chamber and are activated upon start up of
the system and/or every eight hours of running. Upon start-up, the salt sensor flashes for two
minutes to indicate it is in analysis mode, then determines the salt level and displays it.
