5. WATER PREPARATION
Use preferably water from the metropolitan network. If water from a different origin is
used, have it analyzed and verify so that there is no contraindication regarding salt
electrolysis (such as a high concentration of metals or calcium, for example). Make
also sure the water complies with health standards.
Balance the water before starting your chlorinator and add the amount of chlorine
stabilizer prescribed by the manufacturer (usually 1 kg per 25m
3
of water). Do not
exceed the dose because this will block the disinfection action of the chlorine.
NOTE : Stabilizer prevents the disintegration of chlorine due to UV radiation. The lack
of stabilizer could make it difficult to reach a chlorine residual concentration during
high sunshine periods and will oblige you to produce more chlorine reducing the life
span of your cell. In general, and specially if you don't use stabilizer, we recommend
to chlorine during low sunshine hours.
The water must be clean and clear, presenting the following parameters:
Salt 5 - 6 kg/m
3
(gr/l)
pH 7,2 - 7,6 (cement) 6,8 - 7,0 (polyester)
TAC 60 - 100 ppm
TH 15 - 20º French
Stabilizer 20 - 30 ppm (or according to the indications by the
manufacturer)
Temperature >10 º C
Cell
Insert the cell in the cell housing making sure that its open side window is pointing
to the side water inlet . Make sure the O - ring is fitted correctly and tighten the thread.
Then, connect the cell cable connector to the cell terminals. Verify that the connector is
orientated so that its small hole is aligned with the thin pin on the cell before trying to
plug the connector.
NOTA: The cell pins should only be tighten slightly and always by hand. Never use a
tool because the cell could be damaged. Water tightness is assured by the internal seal.
