Pump Protection
If no water flow is detected in the salt cell, Electrochlor automatically switches off the pump to
prevent any damage to the pump and pool equipment. Indicators “FL” will start blinking on the
LCD panel to alert the pool owner, until the fault is rectified.
Electrochlor Salt Cell
Self-Cleaning
Electrochlor Self Clean Salt Cell has the added ability to reverse the polarity of the voltage to clean
calcium build up off its electrodes.
The Electrochlor’s electrodes, the anode and cathode and hold an electrical potential difference
between them for a designated period of time. This difference is reversed after that period of time
has expired and then the anode becomes the cathode and the cathode becomes the anode.
The reversing of polarity or electrical potential difference will then start to remove any calcium
build-up, which may have been deposited onto the cathode.
This continuous reversing of polarity will keep the cell clean from calcium deposits during its
operation, providing the chemical balance and flow of the pool water thru the cell is maintained
within normal parameters.
It is recommended that you obtain regular water chemistry tests from your local pool professional
to ensure your water balance is within range.
The Electrochlor chlorinators must operate between the salt level ranges listed below.
SALT LEVELS
MINIMUM = 5000 ppm OPTIMUM = 6000ppm MAXIMUM = 6500ppm
Testing kits are available from the local pool professional and should be used to accurately check
the salt levels in the pool water.
The Electrochlor’s salt cell consists of a series of titanium
electrodes with opposite charges. Electrochlor’s clear
salt cell housing allows visual inspection of the salt cell
plates and enables monitoring of chlorine production.
The cell housing is constructed using clear U.V.
stabilized acrylic. Both anode and cathode of the
self-clean chlorinator are made from uniquely coated
titanium mesh to add extra durability and life.
