19 | Installation, Operation & Maintenance Instructions EASYCHLORGEN
1.
The PSU fan ventilator lower inlet grille and upper exhaust
grilles must not be obstructed. Allow a minimum of 400mm
(3ft) clearance from any nearby wall/surface.
2.
The PSU must be bolted firmly at its base to the floor or
plinth on which it is positioned.
Location of PSU complete
7.1.3 Intermediate brine tank
Precondition for action:-
A firm and level floor is required for the intermediate brine
tank facility. Refer to dimensions section 6.
The system must be accessible for regular/routine
maintenance procedures.
Refer to installation schematic, section 7.4. The intermediate
brine tank must be on the same floor level as the
EASYCHLORGEN.
Perform the following steps:-
1.
Locate the intermediate brine tank into position
≤1m
adjacent to the EASYCHLORGEN brine inlet connection.
Location of intermediate brine tank complete
7.1.4 Salt saturator (for electrolysis)
The EASYCHLORGEN 4250 and 8500 high capacity systems
may consume large quantities of salt as part of the chlorine
generation process. It is recommended that the site installs a
bulk saturator for vehicle delivery direct to the saturator.
Alternatively, a large open tank saturator (typically >2000kg salt
capacity) with the facility for overhead dispensing of one tonne
bulk bags is installed.
Precondition for action:-
A firm and level floor are required for the external saturator
tank facility. Refer to dimensions section 6.
The system must be accessible for operation, day-to-day
filling with salt and for regular/routine maintenance procedures.
Refer to installation schematic, section 7.4.
Perform the following steps:-
1. Locate the tank into position preferably near/adjacent to the
EASYCHLORGEN.
2.
Align the tank so that inlet & outlet pipe connections are
conveniently situated for connection to appropriate services.

7.2 Hydraulic installation
7.2.1 Cold feed water supply
Note
Damage to the system due to sediment in water.
Water containing sediment may damage or adversely impact on
the performance of the system.
Make sure that the water is always free of sediment
.
Precondition for action:
A minimum cold water supply pressure of 4.0 Bar is required
for the softening system and EASYCHLORGEN. A drop in
pressure across any softening and pre-filter equipment must be
considered to ensure a minimum operating run pressure of >3.0
bar can be sustained at the EASYCHLORGEN skid softened
water inlet.
The temperature of the incoming water supply must be
maintained
≤
20
°
C upstream of the EASYCHLORGEN. A water
chiller may be required in warm climates, or where the water
supply temperature may be affected by other heat sources in the
installation area.
The equipment must be supplied with a clean potable water
quality supply. Waters which are high in magnesium content may
reduce the life of the water softener resin.
A verifiable double check valve or pipe disconnector in the
drinking water supply is fitted upstream of the entire
EASYCHLORGEN system and any ancillary softener equipment
if the local conditions require it.
A pressure reducing valve should be fitted to the water supply
if the supply pressure is greater than 8.5 bar upstream of the
softening equipment.
Perform the following steps:-
1.
Connect a 25mm (3/4”) uPVC solvent cement softened cold
water pipe supply to the EASYCHLORGEN connection point
as indicated in the schematic in section 6.1. Ensure an
isolation valve is fitted upstream to enable safe isolation
during future system maintenance.

7.2.2 Duplex Softener System (Clack 1665 type if supplied with
EASYCHLORGEN
refer to Appendix IV for further information)
Precondition for action:-
A local waste water drain is available at floor level and within
10m of the softener system.
