WARNING
General characteristics:
-
Once your Salt Electrolysis system is installed, some salt must be dissolved in the water. The Salt Electrolysis system
consists of two elements: an electrolysis cell and a control unit. The electrolysis cell contains a number of titanium plates
(electrodes), so that when an electric current and the saline solution pass through them, free chlorine is produced.
-
Maintaining a certain level of chlorine in the pool water will ensure it is sanitary. The Salt Electrolysis system will produce
chlorine when the pool's filtration system (pump and filter) is in operation.
-
The control unit features several safety devices, which are activated in the event of abnormal system operation, as well as
a control microcontroller.
-
Salt Electrolysis systems have an automatic cleaning system for the electrodes that prevents scale buildup.
Safety warnings and recommendations:
-
Assembly or handling must be carried out by suitably qualified personnel.
-
The applicable regulations for accident prevention and electrical installations must be observed.
-
In the installation, it must be taken into account that to disconnect the device from electricity, a switch or circuit breaker that
complies with IEC 60947-1 and IEC 60947-3 and ensures the all-pole disconnection must be incorporated. It must be directly
connected to the power supply terminals and must have a contact separation in all its poles that completely disconnects in
cases of category III surge conditions, in an area that complies with the safety requirements of the site. The switch must be
located in the immediate vicinity of the device and must be easily accessible. In addition, this must be marked as the device
cut-off switch.
-
The device must be powered by a residual current device that does not exceed 30mA (RDC). The device must be electrically
grounded.
-
The manufacturer is in no way responsible for the assembly, installation or startup, nor for any manipulation or incorporation
of components that have not been carried out at the manufacturer's premises.
-
This appliance can be used by children aged 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given suitable supervision or instruction concerning the
safe use of the appliance and they understand the hazards involved. Children must not play with the appliance. Unsupervised
children must not perform cleaning and maintenance tasks.
-
If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, after-sales service provider or similarly qualified
personnel in order to prevent any hazards.
-
Do not attempt to alter the control unit to run at a different voltage.
-
Be sure to make secure electrical connections to avoid contact failures, as these may cause overheating.
-
Before installing or replacing any system component, make sure that it has been disconnected from the power supply and
that there is no water flowing through it. Only use original replacement parts.
-
Because the device generates heat, it is important to install it in a sufficiently ventilated place. Do not install it near
flammable materials.
-
Although the device has an IP code, under no circumstances should it be installed in areas exposed to flooding.
-
This device is intended to be permanently connected to a water supply and must not be connected with a temporary hose.
-
This device is equipped with a mounting bracket. See assembly instructions.
Start up
1.
Ensure that the filter is completely clean and that the pool water and system is free from copper, iron and algae, and that any heating
equipment installed is compatible with the presence of salt in the water.
2.
Balance the pool water. This will allow us to achieve a more efficient treatment with lower free chlorine concentrations in the water, as well as
a longer operation of the electrodes together with a lower formation of calcareous deposits in the pool.
3.
Although the system can operate in a salinity range of 3–12 g/L, the recommended optimum salt level of 5 g/L should be maintained (5 kg/m
4.
Before starting the work cycle, disconnect the control unit and run the filtration pump for 24 hours to ensure the salt is completely dissolved.
5.
Next, turn on the salt electrolysis system, setting the salt electrolysis production level so that the free chlorine level is maintained within the
recommended levels (0.5 - 2 ppm).
Pool water balance
Maintain the following water parameters:
•
Total alkalinity between 80 and 150 mg/L (ppm).
•
pH between 7.2 and 7.6.
•
Free chlorine between 0.5 and 2 mg/L (ppm).
•
Chlorine stabiliser 25-30 mg/L (ppm). In pools exposed to strong sunlight or intensive use, it is advisable to maintain a level of 25-30 mg/L
of stabiliser (isocyanuric acid).
The short manual that accompanies this product contains only basic information on safety measures
to be implemented during installation, maintenance and startup.
The complete manual can be accessed and downloaded as a PDF file from the following website:
