3.0 WARNINGS DISPLAY 

Apart from messages displayed on the User display, there are two warning indicators. 

(a)

 

LOW SALT:

  

This indicates that the concentration of salt has reduced within your pool.  To rectify, add salt at approx. 

50 kg (110 lbs) per 50000 L (13,333 gals) of water (see Salt level under section 3.5 below). 

(b)

 

NO FLOW:

 

This indicates that the Chlorinator thinks that there is no flow to the cells.  Potential problems/solutions 

are described in Troubleshooting section 5.0. 

 

 3.1 CHLORINE OUTPUT LEVEL 

The LED lights on the user panel set the desired output level or chlorine level.     
 
As shown below, the bottom right hand corner of the LCD display indicates the actual level as distinct from the set or desired 
output indicated by the LED lights. 
 
The chlorinator output, or chlorine production, will be affected by water temperature, salt levels and the input voltage of the 
chlorinator. When the chlorinator is operating at maximum efficiency, the Chlorine Output level should always be 
approximately the same level as the Set Point.  The set point can be checked on the LED display which is divided into 8 
sections.  If all 8 LED’s are illuminated, out set point is at 8.  If only 6 lights are illuminated, the set point is 6.
