TO CLEAN THE ECOMINERAL IN-LINE CELL

Ensure that the Power Supply is turned off – failure to do so may result in the pool pump turning on while the 

Cell is not in place. Disconnect the cell lead and flow switch from the Cell and remove the Cell from the pool 

return line by undoing the unions, taking care not to lose the o-rings.

Method

1. Assemble a blanking cap from the supplied plug, o-ring and lock ring.

  

  

2. Install the blanking cap onto the end of the Cell opposite the flow switch port.

3. Secure the Cell in a vertical position with the blanking cap at the bottom, to catch any spills the Cell should 

be placed in an acid proof container.

4. Add 50mL of HYDROCHLORIC ACID to 500mL of WATER in a suitable sized container, carefully pour the 

solution into the open end of the Cell.

5. Alternatively step 4 can be carried out using an approved commercial cell cleaning solution.
6. As the scale is being dissolved from the plates the solution will foam, when this foaming action has 

stopped the Cell is clean and the solution can be returned to the container for future use or discarded 

appropriately. 

NOTE: do not leave the acid solution in the Cell for more than ½ hour.

7. Rinse the Cell out with clean tap water by filling and draining a couple of times, check that all the scale 

deposits have been removed, repeat the cleaning process if necessary.

8. Return the Cell to its position in the pipe work and re-connect the cell lead and flow switch.

NOTE: Always add acid to water, never add water to acid. Always wear eye 

protection and rubber gloves. Always clean the Cell in a well-ventilated area.

SAFETY DEVICE

Hydrogen Gas is a by-product of the chlorine producing process. A Flow Switch has been supplied with the 

unit, which will stop sanitisation if low or no flow is detected.
EcoMineral 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.
