4. Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance of your chlorinator. Please follow these steps carefully.

4.1 Pipe Connection Options

The chlorinator offers versatile pipe connection options:

  • Internal Connection: Suitable for 1.5 inches (48.3mm) or 50mm inner diameter pipes.
  • External Connection: Suitable for 1.25 inches (32mm) or 1.5 inches (38mm) outer diameter pipes.

Verify your pool's pipe size before installation to ensure a proper fit.

5.2 Chlorine Production Modes

The system offers various modes to suit different pool needs:

  • Standard Modes: 25% for 3h, 50% for 6h, 75% for 9h, 100% for 12h.
  • Enhanced Modes: 150% for 18h, 200% for 24h.

Select the appropriate mode based on your pool size, usage, and water conditions.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficient operation of your chlorinator system.

6.1 Self-Cleaning Titanium Plates

The chlorinator is equipped with self-cleaning titanium plates that utilize automatic polarity reversal to prevent mineral buildup and corrosion. This feature reduces the frequency of manual cleaning and extends the life of the electrolytic cell.

  • Selectable cleaning cycles: 4-hour, 8-hour, or 12-hour.
  • It is recommended to set a cleaning cycle based on your water hardness and usage.

6.2 Low Salt Alarm

The system features a low salt alarm to notify you when the salt levels in your pool water fall below the optimal threshold (typically <2500ppm). Maintaining proper salt levels is essential for efficient chlorine production.

  • When the low salt alarm activates, add salt to your pool water as needed.
  • After adding salt, hold the 'Salt' button on the control panel for 3 seconds to reset the sensor and allow the system to re-evaluate salinity.
