5. Start up
The device settings can only be adapted through regular analysis.
Following the steps described below carefully makes it possible to start up with-
out experiencing any issues.
The chemicals used in pools are highly corrosive and can have a harmful effect
on health and the environment.
These products must be handled with care and stored in a suitable location.
5.1. Stabiliser
At room temperature chlorine is a gas. Its solid form (tabs, pellets, etc.) is obtained by combination
with a molecule of cyanuric acid. This cyanuric acid is a stabiliser because it protects the chlorine
from breaking down under the action of ultraviolets (UVs) from the sun. On the other hand, the
cyanuric acid is not used and inevitably accumulates in pools treated using chlorine tabs and ends up
by inhibiting the chlorine's potential. For swimming pools, the maximum recommended cyanuric
acid concentration is 80 ppm (or mg/l).
Salt electrolysis treatments avoid this excess cyanuric acid. The use of pool salt
is recommended as it is pre-dosed with stabiliser.
5.2. Salt level check
The Limpido XC2 is designed to run in water with conductivity corresponding to a salt level of
between 2.5g/l and 5g/l at 25°C.
To accurately check your pool water's salt level, we recommend using a conductivity meter. This
easy-to-use instrument gives a direct salt level reading in g/l. Analysis strips are also available to
effectively check your water's salt level.
When the salt level is not appropriate, the Limpido XC2 stops production if the salt level is too high
or too low. If one of these faults occurs, first check that the cell is properly connected to the control
box and that it is in working condition. Then make the required corrections to the pool water.
Water's conductivity is proportional to its salinity, but also depends on the temperature for 2.2%
per degree Celsius.
