Chlorine Output Level 

 

The LED lights on the user panel set the desired output level or chlorine level.     
 
As shown below, the bottom right hand corner of the LCD display indicates the actual level as 
distinct from the set or desired output indicated by the LED lights. 
 
The chlorinator output, or chlorine production, will be affected by water temperature, salt 
levels and the input voltage of the chlorinator.    When the chlorinator is operating at maximum 
efficiency, the Chlorine Output level should always be approximately the same level as the Set 
Point.  The set point can be checked on the LED display which is divided into 8 sections.  If all 
8 LED’s are illuminated, out set point is at 8.  If only 6 light are illuminated, the set point is 6

Your SALT EXPERT Salt chlorinator will always attempt to adjust the output so that the actual 
output level matches set point level.    At times when the Chlorine output level is lower than the 
set point, check the salt level in your swimming pool at your local pool shop.    Alternatively, 
you may have a low voltage supply to the chlorinator (less than 240Volts) or the water may be 
colder than usual. 
 
Maximum efficiency will be achieved from you chlorinator at the following levels 
 
 

Water at 27° C 

Voltage at 240V 

Salt Level at 4000 PPM
