PREPARING THE POOL
Have your pool water tested by your local Pool Pro Professional. Ideal salt levels
range between 3000-3500ppm (parts per million). Salt levels below 3000ppm and
above 4000ppm may damage equipment and void any warranty.
For new pool installations, consult your pool builder or your local Pool Pro Professional
before adding salt. Some pool builders do not recommend the addition of salt for a
period of time following completion of the swimming pool.
Use Pool Pro Ultrane Pool Salt or Pool Pro Premium Pool Salt at the rate of 3.5kg
per 1000L of pool water. Mineral/magnesium chloride salts can also be used, including
Neptune Mineral Salt. Add 20%-30% extra product for mineral/magnesium salts.
Add salt to the shallow end of the pool. Use a pool brush to completely dissolve the
salt. Run the pool pump in the rst 8-12 hours to also help dissolve the salt.
NOTE: Never add salt/minerals directly to the skimmer box. High concentrations
of salt/minerals passing through pool equipment may cause damage. Remove
automatic pool cleaner from the pool before adding salt or other chemicals.
INSTALLING THE CELL
Check the O-Ring is installed in the cell housing and use a silicone based lubricant
(do not use petroleum based lubricants). It is recommended that the cell is installed
horizontally and the direction of water ow through the cell housing is entering from the
closed end of the cell housing and exiting from the end closest to the cell locking ring
(to reduce water hammer). Use pressure PVC solvent cement to glue cell unions to the
pipework. The cell must be installed so it is the last piece of equipment in the return line
to the pool.
A shut-off valve on the inlet or outlet of the cell housing is NOT recommended. If a
valve is required, it is recommended to install a non-return valve.
INSTALLING THE CHLORINATOR POWER PACK
The power pack must be installed outside of the pool zone, no more than 1.5m from
the cell, at least 1m above ground, away from chemicals and fertilisers (fumes may
damage the power pack) and in accordance with AS/NZS 3000 Wiring Standards.
Mount the power pack with the mounting bracket, green plugs and screws provided,
in a well ventilated position away from direct sunlight and rain (not in a closed
unventilated shed). If mounting on a post, install a waterproof non-metal at panel as a
backing plate.
Connect the lead from the cell electrode to the cell plug under the power pack, ensuring
a rm snap lock connection.
Plug the power pack into a 3 pin 10Amp weatherproof, RCD (Residual Current Device)
protected socket as per the AS/NZS 3000 Wiring Standards. Plug pump into the AC
socket at the bottom of the power pack.
