 ESC-pH SYSTEM

The ESC-pH unit is a combination of the ESC Chlorinator and a pH Controller. Please refer to the relevant chapter 
in this Manual for information on how to operate the chlorinator. It should be noted that there are minor differences 
in chlorinator operation as compared with the standard ESC system described in this Manual. The Chloromatic 
ESCpH unit 

does not

 display the output control setting or include run dry pump protection.

The pH Control system functions are located on the Chloromatic instrument panel in the dark-coloured area 
marked “

pH CONTROL

”. 

LED DIGITAL DISPLAY

  The digital display is used to provide information on the chlorinator output, pH and pH set point. 

  The display will alternately show the chlorine production and pH

  When the pH Control switch is placed in the SET position the display will show the pH set point

FEED & pH STATUS LEDs

The pH STATUS LED is used to indicate if the pH is within a range of ±0.3pH of the set point. If the pH is more 
than 0.3pH above the set point the LED will flash red/green. If the pH is less than 0.3pH below the set point the 
LED will flash red.

The FEED STATUS LED is used to indicate the operation of the acid dosing pump:

 

RED 

ACID PUMP OFF

 

GREEN 

ACID PUMP AVAILABLE

 

GREEN FLASHING  ACID PUMP DOSING

pH CONTROL

The control switch has three positions:

  RUN  – In this position the acid dosing pump will operate according to the value of the pH set point and    

 

  measured pH

  SET  – This will allow adjustment of the controller set point using adjustment tool. Turn clockwise to  

 

 

  increase the set point. Note that acid pump is off when adjusting set point

  OFF  – Disables the acid dosing pump and control functions

IMPORTANT NOTES:

1. The ChloroMatic guarantee does not apply to commercial or semi-commercial installations, i.e. where 
the system runs more than an average of 8 hours per day over the year. Guarantee on commercial and 
semi-commercial installations is 12 months only on both power supply and cells.

2. ALWAYS INSIST ON GENUINE CHLOROMATIC REPLACEMENT PARTS. If it is necessary to replace the 
Electrolytic Cell, beware of “look alikes”. Only the Genuine ChloroMatic Cell is designed and warranted to 
operate with the ChloroMatic Power Supply. 

SERIOUS DAMAGE MAY RESULT TO THE ELECTRONICS INSIDE THE UNIT IF COPY ELECTRODES ARE 
USED AND WILL VOID WARRANTY.

TROUBLE SHOOTING:

 

    

No Chlorine Production - Check for

1. Main power outlet switched off
2. Chlorinator not plugged into main outlet
3. Pump not plugged into Chlorinator
4. Time Clock set to Off position/Power switch turned Off 
5. 

Sanitiser Output Control

1. Dirty Cell - clean if required
2. Filter needs backwashing
3. Display not at correct production level/Cell failing
4. 

Winter Mode

 turned On

5. Pool stabiliser too low
6. pH too high
7. Salt level too low
8. Chloromatic running time inadequate
9. Sanitiser output control set too low
