Power Supply
The Jacuzzi JPDS requires a standard 120V outlet for the transformer.
TIP: To reach a suitable outlet, it may be necessary to extend the low voltage 9V AC
power cable. Additional cable may be sliced in between the transformer and its
plug.
A waterproof seal should be made over the connections. Satisfactory tests have
been conducted on a cable extension of 500 yards. The low voltage power supply is
9V AC, so there is no need to be concerned about the polarity of the wires.
TIP: To protect the plug/socket from dew and rain, use the supplied heat shrink
tube. Slide the heat shrink sleeve over the plug, connect to the socket, and use a hair
dryer to shrink into place.
Plug/Transformer Unit
Plug in the transformer and switch on the power supply. The LED light will flash,
indicating that the unit is powered up and that the program is sequencing through
the range of frequencies.
General Care
The Jacuzzi JPDS will substantially reduce the amount of calcium scale deposits that
occur around the waterline of pools. By removing the scale from the tiles or liner,
any staining that is retained by the scale will also disappear.
Silica Scale
Calcium and silica scale look very similar and are often confused with one another.
TIP: To identify the scale type, test with acid such as vinegar or muriatic acid.
Calcium scale will bubble and will disappear. Silica will not react.
Jacuzzi JPDS will NOT remove silica scale and will not be effective on scale around
the grout lines of tiles. High levels of silica are found in a few ground water supplies
and are not a common issue in most areas of the USA.
Maintenance & Trouble Shooting
Jacuzzi JPDS does not require regular maintenance or servicing. Simply check the
LED light is flashing and monitor the security of the wires on the piping for optimal
performance.
