2.0 Installation Viron Equilibrium chlorinator
The Viron eQuilibrium Chlorinator incorporates a controller with inbuilt acid pump, a electrode cell for converting
minerals or salts into chlorinator, a mounting plate for the controller and tubes, weights and injection points for the
acid which controls your pool water pH. The intelligent software allows you to select and change your acid dosing
ratio and intelligently adjusts the dose rate to match the output of the electrode. (the higher the output, the faster
the pH will change and the more the controller will dose acid to compensate). However, you MUST test your pH
every day for the first week and adjust your acid dose rate on the controller to achieve the correct pH level.
2.1 pH levels
:
Generally you should aim to have your pH at 7.4 to 7.8. The actual pH you choose for your pool will depend on
the water quality in your area, the interior finish of your pool and the type of pool you have.
2.2 Mounting the Controller
:
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.
a. Mount the wall bracket using the screws provided on a secure wall.
b. Glue mixing cell for probe and acid injection point into plumbing line after filter and gas heater (if installed)
but prior to chlorinator cell. Mixing cell must be plumbed to ensure probe is horizontal to water flow.
c. Glue Chlorinator cell into line as per drawing below after filter, heater, solar (if installed) and after sensor T
price.
d.
Plug the pH sensor into the underside of the controller in the location marked “pH”
e. Plug filter pump 3 pin plug into underside of Controller
f.
Connect 4 wire cell cable ensuring matching colours.
g. Remove cap from pH sensor and screw firmly into mixing cell installed in the plumbing. Do Not
Overtighten.
h. The cell must be installed with the barrel unions underneath and the cell should be horizontal. Both
40mm and 50mm fittings have been provide
d. Make sure that the o’rings are correctly fitted and the
unions are done up tightly. Flow direction through the cell is critical
– refer to label on housing.
i. Hang Controller on wall bracket and plug power supply lead into 3 pin 10 amp outlet.
