ELECTRODE:
The electrode must be maintained in perfect condition to ensure a long operating life.
The system has automatic and programmable cleaning of the electrode. This avoids calcium
encrustations forming on the electrodes, and therefore it is not essential to clean them. However, if
cleaning is required, follow these instructions:
A) Disconnect the 230Vac power supply to the CPU.
B) Disconnect the power supply cable from the electrode temperature probe and flow
detector.
C) Unscrew the closing screw and remove the electrode.
D) Using rubber gloves and safety glasses, make a deleted solution of hydrochloric acid (
one
part "spirits of salt" to 10 parts of water; always pouring the acid on top of the
water
), submerge the electrode without touching the connections for a maximum of 10
minutes. Observe the solution effervescing (carbonates dissolving)
(see page 21)
.
E) Never scrape or brush the electrode.
Keep in mind that the electrode is made of titanium laminates covered in a layer of noble
metal oxides. Their use results in progressive wear and tear. With the aim to optimise their
lifetime, keep the following aspects in mind:
1) Do not clean the electrodes as described above too often.
2) Although it is a SELF-CLEANING saline electrolysis system, prolonged operation of
the system and pH values above 7.4 in water with a higher level of hardness may
result in the accumulation of calcium deposits on the surface of the electrode. These
deposits progressively deteriorate the covering, resulting in a reduced useful lifetime.
3) Prolonged operation at salinities less than those recommended will cause premature
deterioration of the electrode.
4) Frequent use of algaecide products with a high copper content may result in copper
deposits on the electrode, progressively damaging the covering. Remember that
the best algaecide is chlorine. If the levels of chlorine and pH are correct,
algaecides are not required.
