GENERAL OVERVIEW
Congratulations on your recent purchase of your
Oasis Aquatics SmartChem
system.
Please take a moment to read through the entire manual before installing your new unit. Your
Oasis
SmartChem
system must be installed and operated as specified.
While every effort has been made to ensure that the information contained in this guide is accurate and
complete, no liability can be accepted for any errors or omissions.
Oasis Aquatics Pty Ltd
reserves
the right to change the specification of the hardware and software described herein at any time without
prior notice.
Thank you again for choosing an Oasis Aquatics Smartchem system. We wish you many happy years
of swimming in your crystal clear pool.
INTRODUCTION
The
Oasis SmartChem
is designed to monitor and automatically adjust the
pH
and Chlorine (
ORP
)
levels of all types of Pools & Spas while the filtration pump is running.
Once the
pH
and
ORP
levels have been set in the Oasis Smart App, the
Oasis SmartChem
will
automatically dose Pool acid (when it is required) to maintain the set pH level. The
Oasis SmartChem
will also maintain the systems ORP by either turning the Chlorinator On or Off, or by automatically
dosing Chlorine if you prefer Liquid Chlorine or are utilising an Ioniser.
The
pH
number is a measurement of how Acidic or Alkaline your Pool/Spa systems water is. As close
the 7.0-
7.8 is almost neutral so it’s not harmful to swimmers. To much acid (low pH) will cause the
surface of the pool to degrade quicker.
The
ORP
is a measurement of Chlorine activity (Oxidising properties) in your Poo/Spa systems water
and is measured in millivolts.
It has been ascertained that a Pool system with an ORP reading of 650Mv will eliminate E-coli type
bacteria in about a second. The lower the ORP reading, the longer it will take for the bacteria to be
eliminated from the system. An ORP reading of 550Mv will mean that it could take up to 2hrs for the
bacteria to be eliminated.
IMPORTANT
THE
OASIS SMARTCHEM
IS NOT DESIGNED TO BRING THE POOL/SPA SYSTEM INTO
BALANCE; IT IS DESIGNED TO MAINTAIN A BALANCED SYSTEM.
Make sure your pool water is well balanced with the correct pH, Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Calcium
Hardness levels and is Phosphate free.
