UNDER WATER POOL LIGHTS (POOL LIGHT MODELS ONLY)
Where requested, and as an optional extra, some AutoChlor® models have swimming pool
under water light transformers fitted. This special transformer allows you to connect your pool
light lead to the special connection supplied and operate them from the chlorinator power
supply.
The under water light lead is connected directly into the special light connector strip which
is located on the underside of the chlorinator power supply. Connect the lead from your pool
lights to the connector strip terminals by use of the two locating screws.
The on/off switch (Fig. 1, item 7) for the pool lights is located on the left hand side of the time
clock. The pool light circuitry is protected by its own circuit breaker, which is located adjacent
to the main circuit breaker at the rear of the unit.
Operation of your pool lights is only through the on/off switch provided. Your chlorinator time
clock will not switch your pool lights on or off at the designated pool filtration times.
Pool light transformers are available in 12, 24 and 32 volt models. Please check to ensure that
you have matched your pool light voltage to that supplied with your AutoChlor® chlorinator
GENERAL CHLORINATOR OPERATION
Before switching on your AutoChlor® salt water chlorination system please ensure that you
have added the correct amount of pool salt, it has fully dissolved and is distributed throughout
the pool water. (see Addition of Salt Section). Ensure that the base pool chemistry is at the
recommended levels and the pool water is clean and crystal clear.
Switch on the pool filter system and the AutoChlor® unit. At this point the AutoChlor® electronic
display may register a water flow fault as the cell housing fills with water and an alarm (beep-
ing) may activate. This is normal start up procedure and will cease as soon as the unit registers
full and correct water flow throughout the electrodes. (see Water Balance Section)
With the chlorine controller knob (Fig. 1, item 5) now turned fully clockwise to the maximum
position the green chlorine output indicator lights will illuminate one after the other. With the
correct amount of salt added to the pool water you should achieve a 100% (ten lights) reading.
In this position the AutoChlor® chlorinator is producing maximum chlorine output.
As previously stated, chlorine demand will differ from pool to pool due to bather load, water
temperature or weather conditions and this must be taken into consideration. By testing for
chlorine residuals on a regular basis you will quickly determine the chlorine state of your pool
and what action you need to take to adjust it if required.
After determining your particular pool’s chlorine needs, you can set the controller to the
desired setting to achieve your chlorine requirements and/or adjust your daily running times.
