Zodiac EIXPERT - Install the power pack; Preparing the pool: water balance

Install the power pack
Use the template provided to t the 2 mounng screws to a wall or post. Keep the head of the screws sing
up by 10mm - 15mm. Now hang the power pack into posion by locang the keyhole slots on the rear and
slide down into posion over the head of the screws (If the power pack is to be installed on a post then it must
be centrally posioned on a at panel of suitable waterproof material at least 300mm wide by 450mm high.)
• Do not enclose the power pack in a box.
• Do not install it above any other heat source.
• A shaded posion away from rain and direct sunlight is preferable, though not essenal.
Fit the colour coded connectors on the cell lead to the posts on the cell housing.
Plug lter pump (one only) into the 3-pin socket in the base of the power pack. The chlorinator me switch will
control both the chlorinator and lter pump.
Safety features
A ‘Check Salt’ warning appears on screen to alert the pool operator that the salt concentraon in the pool
has dropped below a preset crical value. More salt should be added. Note the CHECK SALT warning will be
displayed if the water temperature of the pool drops to low temperatures or if the cell is damaged or needs
replacement. Consult Zodiac or your local pool shop for details.
Preparing the pool: water balance
It is essenal that the pool water balance is controlled and adjusted before installing the appliance. Making sure
that the pool water balance is correct from the very start will reduce the likelihood of encountering problems in
the future once the chlorinator has been set up. Note that parameters are in PPM (parts per million).
Even though it is an autonomous system, it is essenal to regularly analyse the water to check the water
balance parameters and adjust them if necessary.
