Testing Cell Flow Rate:
A flow meter must be installed into the cell line to verify correct flow.
A Rolachem flow meter 5cm (2”) or equal s hould be installed into the cell line. Install the flow meter
per manufacturer’s instructions on the 5cm (2”) line leading to the electrolytic cell or cells.
SALTPRO PLUMBING
An in-line zinc a node called SaltPro should be ins talled in-line and will serve as a sacrific ial
component. It is housed in a 5cm (2”) slip tee with clear PVC for visual inspection.
Models: ECO-matic MEMS36USA Automatic Chlorine Generator – 5cm (2”) slip tee
Location:
The SaltPro should be glued in t he bypass line prior t o the electrolyt ic cell. Insta ll one SaltPro per
each body of water. The anode itself shall have a permanently a ttached bonding lug which shall be
connected to the main bonding loop with a #8 bonding wire.
The SaltPro is fitted with a manual bleeder valve for the installer to ensure, post installation,
that the air is removed from the tee and the zinc makes contact with the water flow
Installing the Power Supply
Location of the power supply: Select a loc ation to mount the power supply onto a wall or other
suitable location as follows:
•
The ‘Cell’ location should already have been sele cted (see above). The ‘Cell’ power cord mus t
reach the ‘Cell’ (with sufficient slack to allow removal of the ‘Cell’ from the ‘Cell Housing’).
•
Locate the power supply so its cord is within reach of the point where it is to be connected to main
power supply of the circulation pump
•
The power supply is weather-proof so it can be located outdoors.
•
It is important to ensure that power supply be located in a well ventilated are a – and that air can
circulate between the back of the power supply and the surface onto which it is mounted (stand-
