10. Operation
Note
Damage to the system due to incorrect salt supply!
Failure to observe the correct specification of salt with this
system will most likely result in failure of the system and affect
the warranty conditions.
Use the correct salt.
10.1 Automatic Operation
The EASYCHLORGEN system is automated. However, the salt
saturator should be refilled with salt before allowing it to become
empty. Try not to allow the salt level to drop <25% full. The
saturator should have markers fitted to indicate “maximum” and
“minimum” salt level!
On electrical power the EASYCHLORGEN always performs an
initial purge of water and brine prior to normal operation. In
normal operation, the electrolytic chlorine process will START
and STOP automatically according to the level of the product
storage tank facility.
When the tank is full the display will show:-
When the system is generating and the tank is filling the display
will show:-
10.2 Manual Inhibit
The automatic process may be interrupted by placing the control
cycle in to MANUAL INHIBIT mode. This will STOP the
automatic electrolytic process.
Whilst the system is displaying SYSTEM STOPPED, the scroll
UP key may be pressed for 5 seconds to place the system into
MANUAL INHIBIT mode which halts the automatic operation:-
Press the scroll UP key again for 5 seconds to resume
automatic operation.
10.3 Remote Inhibit
The EASYCHLORGEN may be connected to an external switch
intended to stop the system remotely. If the system is stopped
remotely the screen will display REMOTE INHIBIT. The system
will not resume automatic operation until the remote inhibit
function is released.
10.4 Softener Regeneration
Note
Damage to the system due to hard water supply!
Hard water may damage or adversely impact on the
performance of the system.
Regularly check and verify the softened water supply.
If a regenerative softener device is fitted, make sure that
the correct salt level is regularly checked and maintained in
the softener brine tank where applicable.
Failure to provide a softened feed water supply for the normal
operation of the system will most likely result in failure of the
system and affect the warranty conditions.
If a SIMPLEX automatic regenerative softener has been fitted,
the softener will automatically regenerate and whilst doing so
should place the EASYCHLORGEN into STOP mode to prevent
the EASYCHLORGEN from operating with softened water
(signal switching between softener and EASYCHLORGEN):-
The system will resume automatic operation once the
regenerative process is complete.
