Pulsar® Infinity Operation and Installation Manual – Water Treatment 5
1 Introduction
2 Overview
1.1 Pulsar® Infinity Tablets
The patent-pending, slow dissolving Pulsar® Infinity Tablets are a 3-in-1 product that chlorinates consistently, increases calcium to protect plaster,
and increases alkalinity to stabilize pH. The benefits of the Pulsar® Infinity Tablets include but is not limited to:
• DOES NOT add cyanuric acid to your pool reducing wasteful drainage
• DOES NOT reduce ORP effectiveness
• Dissolves slowly to give long lasting chlorination
• DOES NOT form nitrogen trichloride (strong chlorine odor) associated with trichlor use
• Highly concentrated to reduce shipping and handling costs
• More concentrated than liquid bleach
• Longer shelf life when compared to liquid bleach
• Adds less total dissolved solids (TDS) than liquid bleach
• Class 2 Oxidizer (less restrictive storage requirements compared to Class 3 Oxidizers)
1.2 Pulsar® Infinity Feeder
The Pulsar® Infinity Feeder is an easy to use, automatic solution that is exclusively designed to feed Pulsar® Infinity Tablets. Other calcium hypo-
chlorite or trichlor tablets will not fit into the feeder nor will they dissolve properly and provide the appropriate feed rate. With the simplicity of an
erosion feeder, the Pulsar® Infinity Feeder’s streamlined design is easy to install, service and requires minimal operator maintenance.
2.1 Theory of Operation
The patent-pending Pulsar® Infinity System is a pressurized feeder system designed for pools and spas ranging from 500 to 60,000 gallons
[
1,892.7
to 227,124.7 liters]
. A pre-filter to post-filter loop will be added to the main pool recirculation system as part of the Pulsar® Infinity Sys-
tem. This recirculation loop will create the pressure differential to provide the proper flow of water through the feeder.
The Pulsar® Infinity System incorporates the principles of High Capacity Erosion (HCE) technology. Water rises in a “column” from a submerged
nozzle below the tablet grid making contact with the Pulsar® Infinity Tablets. The tablets are then submerged in a column of water with the water
flow from the nozzle creating a chlorinated solution that is discharged to the pool return line. The feeder operates in a pressurized condition with a
pressure range between 5 to 20 psig
[0.35 to 1.38 bar]
.
The chlorine output is controlled by the cartridge height setting (distance of the tablet from the nozzle) and the inlet flow rate which has an operat-
ing range of 0.5 to 4.5 gpm [1.9 to 17.03 lpm]. In addition, an ORP controller may be used for more precise control. The inlet flow rate will allow a
minimum available chlorine (AvCl) output of 0.5 lb/day [0.2 kg/day] and will allow a maximum AvCl output of 9 lbs/day [4.1 kg/day] for both pools
and spas.
