CHLORINATOR STATIONARY MOUNTING
(
OPTION
)
Chlorinators are required to stay in a permanent upright position
according tothe regulations in some areas. In this case, mount the
product to a platform as shown inthe drawings.
1. Unplug the electrolytic cell line cord. Unscrew the locked nut of the flow
sensor counter-clockwise and disconnect the flow sensor signal line from
the flow sensor. Then screw out the four screws and put aside the
electrolytic cell. (See Fig.1)
2. The mounting holes are 6.4mm in diameter and spaced 180mm apart. Use
two bolts and lock nuts with a maximum of 6.4mm in diameter. And then
reinstall the electrolytic cell and other parts. (See Fig.2)
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION: You must ensure the
chlorinator is unplugged before
any maintenance begins or severe
risk of injury or death exists.
Flow Sensor Cleaning
1. Unscrew the lock nut of the flow
sensor, disconnect the signal line,
and remove them from flow sensor.
2. Clean the deposits and debris on
the surface of the flow sensor with
a garden hose. (use a plastic brush if
necessary, but never a metal one) (See Fig. 3)
3. Reinstall the flow sensor signal line, and the lock nut.
NOTE
: Do not over tighten.
Electrolytic Cell Cleaning
To extend the life and performance of the electrolytic cells, it is
recommended to inspect it every
3 months
and clean it if necessary.
Follow the cleaning instructions below.
1. Turn off the chlorinator and unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.
2. Remove the debris screens from the inside of the pool and insert the
stopper plugs in the pool’s inlet and outlet valves or close the connection
valves.
3. Remove all other components connected to the electrolytic cell and
separate it from the chlorinator.
4. Look inside the electrolytic cell
to inspect for scale formation
(light colored crusty or flaky
deposits). If yes,go to step 5,
otherwise, go to step 6.(See Fig. 4)
5. Try to flush the deposits and debris
with high a pressure garden hose.
Soakthe cell in a vinegar solution
for 2-3 hours if flushing does
not work.
6. Reinstall the electrolytic cell
(Reset the operating time).
NOTE:
Do not use any metal tools, they may scratch the coating off the
plates.
NOTE:
A buildup on the cell indicates that there is an unusually high
calcium level in the pool. If this is not corrected, you have to frequently
check and clean the cell. To avoid this, always keep your pool chemistry
at the recommended levels. See “Pool Water Chemistry” for reference.

STORAGE
1. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.
2. After all water is drained from the pool, disconnect the chlorinator
from the hoses.
3. Air-dry the chlorinator before storage. It is recommended to visually
inspect and clean the electrolytic cell at this time.
4. It is recommended you store the chlorinator in its original package in a
warm dry place.

TEST STRIPS (Included in The Package)
Test Strips can test the “Free Chlorine”, “PH” and “Total Alkalinity” levels
at the same time. Use as follows.
1. Dip one strip into water, no more than 46cm (18”) below the water
surface and remove immediately.
2. Hold strip level for 15 seconds to avoid reactant dripping from one test
pad to another.
NOTE:
Do not shake off excess water.
3. Compare results immediately lining up the 3 test pads to the easy color
match chart on the bottle.

- No power supply
- LED failure
- The chlorinator goes is

mode
- Increase the operating time per day.
See “Operation Instructions ”
- Test the salt level with test strip, and
adjust as needed. See “Pool Water
Chemistry”
- Use pool cover when the pool is not in use
and/or when the unit is operating
- Increase the operating time per day. See
“Operation Instructions ”
- Inspect the cell and clean it if necessary.
Refer to Maintenance part.
- Drain about 20 to 25% of the pool Water
and add fresh water to decrease the
calcium hardness. Visually inspect the
electrolytic cell for scale buildup and
clean the electrolytic cell if necessary

DISPOSAL
Meaning of crossed - out wheeled dustbin:
Do not dispose of electrical appliances as unsorted municipal waste,
use separate collection facilities.
Contact your local government for information regarding the collection
systems available.
If electrical appliances are disposed of in landfills or dumps,
hazardous substances can leak into the groundwater and get into the
food chain, damaging your health and well-being.
When replacing old appliances with new ones, the retailer is legally
obligated to take back your old appliance for disposals at least free of
charge.
NOTE:
The total assembly must exceed 18kg.
