8. Operation
8.1 Work procedures
The Selcoperm electrolysis system is controlled via a
touchscreen on the Selcoperm electrolyser and via several
control elements on the system components.
Before starting to work, observe the following points:
• Keep the area around the product clean and tidy.
• Provide sufficient light for safe operation.
• If information, symbols and warnings are illegible or unclear,
replace them immediately with new ones.
• Make sure all safety installations are installed correctly and
working properly. Do not deactivate or remove any safety
installations during operation.
8.2 Control elements

Control elements on Selcoperm electrolyser
8.2.1 Emergency stop
Several emergency stops are installed in the system. Emergency
stops switch off the system or a component and ensure a safe
status of the system. Emergency stops can be found at:
• Selcoperm electrolyser
• Rectifier
• Brine dosing station.
Depending on customer requirements, more emergency stops
can be installed on site.
8.2.2 Main switch of Selcoperm electrolyser
The main switch on the Selcoperm electrolyser switches off the
power supply of all components powered via the Selcoperm
electrolyser control cabinet. These are:
• Degassing fans
• Brine dosing station
• Solenoid valve
• Acid cleaning station.
8.3 Operation mode "Automatic"
In operation mode "Automatic" the system runs automatically.
There are different control modes and operating states in this
mode.
8.3.1 Control modes
8.3.2 Operating states
8.4 Operation mode "Service"
In this operation mode the solenoid valve and the brine dosing
station can be controlled manually by certified service persons.
See section
The system must only be operated by authorised and
qualified persons.

Description
"Production"
The system produces NaClO solution
which is lead into the degassing and
storage tank.
"Standby"
Once the degassing and storage tank
is filled, the system switches to
operating state "Standby" until the
NaClO solution level in the tank falls
below a specified value. Then it
switches back to operating state
"Production".
This symbol is displayed instead of
the symbol shown above, if control
mode "Remote" is active.
"Stop"
The electrolysis process is stopped.
