To assist you in prolonging the
life of your Enduro Chlor Cell
Electrodes, we have provided
this chart of Common Causes
Of Premature Cell Failure based
on our extensive experience in
designing, manufacturing and
servicing salt water chlorinators
in Australia.
In order to achieve the
longest Enduro Chlor cell, we
recommend that the owner bear
these important points in mind
as it is sometimes difficult to
determine which of the above
points was responsible when
inspecting a cell which has
failed prematurely.
CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITIES
BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE read the Operating Instructions carefully and
check the following points which are your responsibility.
• A service charge will be made for service as a result of:
• Power point not turned on or faulty (check with another appliance).
• Time incorrectly set.
• Unit incorrectly installed.
• Pump not plugged into Enduro Chlor Pump Outlet Socket.
• Controls incorrectly set.
• Poor water chemistry (Salt Level, pH, etc).
• Cell not being cleaned (acid washed) properly.
• Poor water flow (check filter is clean / pump operating / skimmer free of obstructions).
• Unit being tampered with by unauthorised persons.

Common Causes Of
Premature Cell Failure
a) Operating the cell with too little salt in the
water (this can often happen after heavy
rain).
b) Excessive accumulation of calcium
deposits on electrodes.
c) Low water flow through cell (poor filter
maintenance or a faulty pump are typical
causes).
d) Physical damage to electrode coating
caused by scraping with a screwdriver, etc.
e) Cleaning of electrodes in too strong an acid
solution (greater than 1 part hydrochloric
acid in 8 parts water).
f)
Acid washing for too long (10-15 minutes
max. In contact with 1:8 acid/water should
be more than sufficient).
