Alarme 2B – Low Salt
This alarm (ALARM 2B) is released when the electrolysis reaches the minimum threshold of 66%. The
system continues to operate, but the production of electrolysis is reduced and may be insufficient for a
good disinfection of the water. This alarm indicates that the salt concentration in the pool is below the
minimum desirable, or that there is an anomaly in the electrolysis cell. The amount of salt should be
inferred by the water volume of the pool and increased accordingly.
Check if:
•
salt concentration is between 0,5 and 1,5 g/l
•
the salt is completely diluted in water
•
all valves are in the correct position
•
the power supply is well regulated
•
the equipment is correctly calibrated
•
the cell plates have mineral* deposits, e.g. “white electrodes”
(*) – In this case introduce the electrodes in a solution of 10% hydrochloric acid until the "bubbling"
disappears, typically after 10 minutes. Manual cleaning reduces the lifetime of the cell so it should only
be made if the deposition is well visible.
The alarm deactivates automatically once the problem is solved.

Alarm 3 – Low Temperature
This alarm (ALARM 3) is triggered when the water temperatures is less than 5ºC as a warning of possible
water pipe freezing. In this case, it is advisable to program a 10 minutes circulation period every hour to
prevent water from freezing within the tubing. Once the temperature rises the alarm turns off
automatically.
If the water temperature is not less than 5°C service should be consulted.
6.5
Alarm 4 – Aged Cell
This alarm (ALARM 4) is released if the electrolysis cell is producing below 30% of its nominal value ("S:
29%" or less). This indicates that the cell is near the end of its useful life and should be replaced shortly,
or the salinity of the water is too low. The production of chlorine is reduced and the filtration time will
be significantly increased for the system to achieve the level of chlorine required for disinfecting.
Check if:
•
salt concentration is between 0,5 and 1,5 g/L
•
the salt is completely diluted in water
•
all valves are in the correct position
•
the power supply is well regulated
•
the equipment is correctly calibrated
•
the cell plates have mineral* deposits, e.g. “white electrodes”
The alarm deactivates automatically once the problem is solved.

Electrolysis Counter
This model is equipped with an electrolysis counter, that is, a clock that monitors the use and lifetime of
the electrolysis cell. The device counts the hours the cell is actually operating, discarding the hours the
system is on but not producing chlorine. To see the total time of electrolysis press the button for 5 sec
until the information appears on the screen.
