3. INSTALLATION OF THE EQUIPMENT
3.2 Installation of Electrolysis Cell
• Place the chlorine cell in a vertical position with electrical connections on the top. If
this is not possible, it can be assembled in a horizontal position, with the addition of the
optional flow switch.
• Place the chlorination cell in the highest position possible of the filtration circuit and
always after the filter.
• If there is a heater present, install the chlorination cell after the heater, with a check
valve before the cell.
• For below water installation, ensure there are corresponding shut-off valves to facilitate
maintenance of the cell.
• Do not place the pH or ORP probe after, or too near, the chlorinator cell, as faulty
readings could be made owing to the proximity of the electrolysis circuit.
• The pH and ORP probes should be installed after the filter.
• If it is not possible to keep probes a minimum distance from the cell, after the filter they
can be installed before the filter. However, in this case more frequent maintenance of
the probe may be required (see "Maintenance" for further info).
• A good earth connection is essential. Ensure equipotential bonding of pool structure,
bond beam, metal pool fencing and any pool equipment that is not double insulated to
water circuit (e.g. heaters).
