EcoSalt REDOX System Maintenance
To clean the
EcoSalt REDOX In-Line cell:
Ensure that power to the pump and chlorinator is turned off Ð
failure to do so may result in the pool pump turning on while the cell is not in place. Disconnect the cell lead
from the cell and remove the cell from the pool return line by undoing the unions (take
care not to lose the
O-rings).
!
METHOD 1 Ð
Add 1 part HYDROCHLORIC ACID to 10 parts WATER in a suitable sized container. The Cell should be
placed vertically in the container of solution ensuring that it is deep enough to cover the cell plates. Take
care when doing this as the solution can foam and create a spill which must be cleaned up by dilution. As
an alternative you can clean the cell by purchasing a suitable blanking cap (Davey P/N MK102118) which is
fitted to one end of the cell. Secure the cell in an upright position and fill with solution from the open end.
METHOD 2 Ð
As an alternative, an approved commercial cell cleaning solution can be used a number of times effectively.
When clean, the cell should be rinsed thoroughly and the connections should be dried carefully to avoid
connector corrosion
. It should not take longer than a few minutes to clean; if it does the cell should be
cleaned more frequently. Return the cell to its position in the pipe work and re-connect.
SAFETY DEVICE:
Hydrogen Gas is a by-product of the chlorine producing process. A Flow Switch has been supplied with the
unit, which will switch off chlorine production if low or no flow is detected.
EcoSalt REDOX units are also fitted with a Thermal Cut-out to prevent overheating. If the temperature rise
is too high, power is automatically disconnected. The Unit
will resume operation when it cools down.
MAINTENANCE OF THE ORP PROBE:
The ORP Probe must be kept clean and free of oils, mineral deposits, and contamination in order to
function properly. Cleaning requirements vary depending on bather load and pool water conditions (amount
of contaminants/debris), we recommend cleaning every 3-6 months. If there is an increased need to
calibrate your EcoSalt REDOX unit, the ORP Probe probably requires cleaning or replacement.
To clean the ORP Probe, ensure power to the pump and chlorinator is turned off, then disconnect the
Probe from the Power Supply and remove from the Manifold. The ORP Probe tip can then be gently
cleaned with a soft toothbrush and regular tooth paste; a mild detergent may also be used to remove any
oil. After cleaning the ORP Probe should be thoroughly rinsed with fresh water, and new thread seal tape
applied before reinstalling into the Manifold.
NOTE:
If cleaning does not restore correct operation, the ORP Probe may require replacement.
IMPORTANT:
Probe tip must be kept wet at all times, it must not be allowed to dry out or permanent
damage will result.
