Installation Manual

Figure 3. 

Equipment Configuration, Acid Dosing and 

Optional Sensor Probes 

Choose a location that is preferably out of direct 

sunlight, near the filter system. The controller should 

be located 1 metre above ground level to prevent 

rain splash back or sprinkler system damage to the 

underside of the controller. The controller must be 

mounted on a vertical surface/wall. If mounted on 

a post, a flat sheet 20mm larger than the controller 

housing must be used.

Mounting the Controller

  

WARNING

•  The cell must be installed horizontally and level. 

Improper installation can lead to gas build up which 

could result in equipment damage or serious injury.

•  The cell must be the last piece of equipment on the 

return line.

•  It is recommended in all installations that the cell is 

installed on a bypass equipped with isolation valves.

•  In order to avoid load loss, installing the cell on a 

bypass is MANDATORY if system flow rated exceeds 

300 Lpm.

•  If installing on a bypass, use a downstream check 

valve instead of a manual valve to prevent improper 

back flow into the cell.

Figure 5. 

Correct Cell Installation

Before installing the unit in position on the wall or 

post, the length of the PVC tubing provided should 

be measured and taken into consideration. Ensure 

the controller and cell are close enough for the power 

supply lead to reach the cell and sufficient PVC tube 

exists to connect acid container and cell. 

1. 

Mount the wall bracket using the screws provided on 

a secure wall.

2. 

Glue sensing chamber for probe into plumbing line 

after filter and gas heater (if installed) but prior to 

chlorinator cell. Sensor Chamber must be plumbed to 

ensure probe is horizontal to water flow.

3. 

Glue Chlorinator cell into line as per drawing below 

after filter, heater, solar (if installed) and after sensor T 

piece.

4. 

Plug the pH sensor into the underside of the controller 

in the location marked “pH”.

5. 

Plug filter pump 3 pin plug into underside of 

Controller.

6. 

Connect 4 wire cell cable ensuring matching colours.

7. 

Remove cap from pH sensor and screw firmly into 

sensor chamber installed in the plumbing. Do Not 

Over tighten.

8. 

The cell must be installed with the barrel unions 

underneath and the cell should be horizontal. Both 

40mm and 50mm fittings have been provided. Make 

sure that the o-rings are correctly fitted and the unions 

are done up tightly. 

NOTE:  Direction of water flow through the cell is critical – 

refer to label on the controller housing.

9. 

Hang the controller on wall bracket and plug power 

supply lead into 3 pin 10 amp outlet.
