The Ozone XLM Series Mineral Chlorinator is a sophisticated pool sanitation system that combines ozone generation with mineral chlorination to provide effective and efficient pool water treatment. This system is designed to destroy contaminants faster than traditional chlorine-only systems, leaving more chlorine available as a residual sanitizer. It is suitable for domestic installations and comes with a 3-year warranty on new installations and a 2-year warranty on replacement parts (excluding wearing parts like squeeze tubes).
The Ozone XLM Series operates by passing a DC current through an electrolytic cell in mineral-salted water. This process, known as electrolysis, produces chlorine gas from magnesium, potassium, sodium, and chloride ions. The chlorine gas dissolves almost instantly to form free chlorine, a highly effective sanitizer. Simultaneously, the system generates ozone, a powerful oxidizer that rapidly breaks down contaminants. This dual action ensures comprehensive sanitation, reducing the overall chlorine demand and improving water quality.
A key feature of the Ozone XLM Series is its integrated pH control system. As chlorine is produced, the pool's pH tends to rise. The system employs a sophisticated algorithm to calculate the amount of acid needed to counteract this pH rise, automatically dosing acid to maintain the pH within the optimal range (6.8-7.8, depending on pool type). While the algorithmic pH control is effective, manual pH checks are still recommended to ensure accuracy.
The system includes a Venturi Injector manifold, which is crucial for introducing both ozone and acid into the pool's return line. This manifold creates a vacuum to draw in the ozone and acid, ensuring proper mixing and distribution.
The Ozone XLM Series also incorporates several safety features, including gas detection and a dry-run pump shutdown. If chlorine gas is detected for an extended period or if the pump runs dry, the system will automatically shut down to prevent dangerous conditions.
The Ozone XLM Series is designed for ease of use and provides comprehensive control over pool sanitation, ensuring clean and healthy water with minimal manual intervention.
