IMPORTANT INFORMATION  

ABOUT YOUR SANITISER

FACTORS THAT WILL IMPROVE THE PERFORMANCE 

& LIFE OF YOUR ECOMINERAL WATER SANITISER 

PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR SANITISER

POOL BUILDERS:

  Please cover this information with your customer during the 

new pool “Handover Session”

Sanitisers are a valuable piece of pool sanitising equipment and must be cared for to get the best 

performance and life span from it.

There are THREE main factors that will damage your Sanitiser and reduce the life of the product. 

Please monitor the following factors in accordance with your installation & operating instructions.

1. MAINTAIN RECOMMENDED TOTAL DISSOLVED SOLIDS (TDS) LEVELS

RECOMMENDED OPERATING RANGE: 4,000 - 6,000ppm

•  Run Sanitiser at the TDS levels stated within this document and on the product to ensure 

optimum sanitiser output and cell life.

•  Operating this device at low TDS levels will damage the cell and reduce its life.

•  The control panel displays a red LED indicator warning when the TDS levels are low.

•  If no action is taken to rectify the TDS levels, damage to the cell may result which will not be 

covered under warranty.

2. MONITOR & MAINTAIN YOUR SANITISER IN-LINE CELL

EcoMineral has a “Reverse Polarity” In-Line cell.

•  To keep your EcoMineral Sanitiser in the best possible condition, regular monitoring of the 

electrolytic cell is recommended. The ‘Cell’ is the clear plastic housing containing the plates.

•  During the sanitisation process a white powdery Calcium scale may naturally build up on the 

titanium plates in the cell. Monitor the cell to prevent excessive scale build up. Excessive scale 

build up will cause damage to your cell, and dramatically reduce its efficiency and lifespan.

•  Reverse Polarity models have low maintenance cells that minimise scale build up.

•  The control panel displays a red LED indicator warning when the cell requires cleaning.

•  If Calcium scale builds up please clean the cell, following the cleaning instructions provided on 

page 14.

•  NEVER

: Use concentrated acid to clean your cell.

•  NEVER

: Leave cell in cleaning solution for extended periods of time

•  NEVER

: Use metal implements, scourers or brushes to clean your cell

3. BALANCED POOL WATER CHEMISTRY

•  EcoMineral Salt and Activator TDS levels 

MUST

 be maintained at 

4,000 - 6,000ppm

  

for optimum performance and lifespan    

•  Calcium Hardness levels 

MUST

 be kept to ideal ranges of 

200 - 275ppm

 (for Concrete and 

Tiled Pools) and 

100 - 225ppm

 (for other surfaces) to prevent excessive scale build up and 

damage to equipment

•  pH levels 

MUST

 be kept to ideal levels to prevent damage to equipment and pool surfaces and 

to obtain optimum sanitiser effectiveness.

•  Total Alkalinity and Stabiliser levels must also be kept in an ideal range.

Note: Please refer to the POOL WATER CHEMISTRY chart on page 17 for more information.
