The calcium build up causes an insulator around the Water flow sensor and fools 
the system into believing there is no water flow, thereby causing the unit to go 
into protection/safe mode. Replace the Electrode after cleaning and operate the 
system normally. 

 

Make sure all cables are connected to the Electrode and that no wires have come 
adrift. Ensure the Green and Yellow striped wire, with the small clip, is connected 
to the Electrode lid small pin. 

 

Ensure that the Overload Button has not tripped. Check the system first before 
depressing the Overload Button. Repeat normal operation.  

 

Failing the above contact your local agent or contact us on:

Q: I want to lengthen the output cable from the Power Pack to the Electrode. Can I do 
this without damaging the unit? 
A: Under no circumstances should the Output Cable to the Electrode be lengthened.  

 

Altering the length voids the Manufacturers Warranty. 

  Lengthening the Output Cable reduces the efficiency of the chlorinator 

dramatically as this is a low voltage system and is designed and manufactured at 
a specific length to function optimally. 

 
Q: On my Self Cleaning (SC) chlorinator, every now and again my chlorinator reading 
seems to be low or zero. If I turn it OFF and ON again, the reading comes up. 
A: There is a distinct possibility that the electrode may be faulty as the SC chlorinator 
operates on a reverse polarity operation. Consult your nearest dealer for assistance or 
contact us on

Q: My terminals on top of the Electrode are corroded badly and become extremely hot to 
touch. 
A: The corrosion comes from immersing the entire Electrode in an Acid solution whilst 
cleaning; this causes the acid to react with the brass fittings and copper wire causing a 
barrier between the respective contact points. This ultimately results in a resistance 
being formed and the high current passing through these corroded fittings now start to 
become hot.  

 

It is recommended that these be addressed as soon as possible, as prolonged 
heat will melt the lid in the localized area of Electrode and ultimately destroy the 
electrode. 

 

Excessive corrosion will also impair the efficiency of the chlorinator resulting in 
lower outputs on the Output Meter and lower chlorine readings. 

 

Once again this is a Non-Warranty issue, but an Owners responsibility.
