Installation and user guide
The following steps will help you get up and running with your new Ei salt water chlorinator.
WARNING!
The installation and use of Ei salt water chlorinators must comply with the instructions and
recommendations presented in this manual. For additional information, please contact your
professional pool retailer.
3.1 Installing the Ei power pack
1. Find a suitable location for the power pack mount. It should be installed no further than 1.8 metres
from the cell (this is the maximum cell cable length), ideally in the technical shed with the fi ltering
system or next to the fi ltering unit.
IMPORTANT:
If the power pack is mounted on a post, a waterproof panel (at least 300 mm by 400
mm high) must be fi tted behind the power pack.
2. Using the screws provided fasten the mount solidly to the wall and place the power pack on it.
NOTE:
Only connect the appliance to a power outlet once the installation has been completed (See
the
Connection to Ei power pack
paragraph).

3.2 Ei cell installation
IMPORTANT:
> The cell should always be the last appliance placed on the pool return pipe (Pay attention to the
assembly directions, see above diagram).
> If the fi ltering system fl ow is below 18 m3/h, it will not be essential to install
the Ei cell on a bypass. Bypass installation is required when the fl ow exceeds 18 m
3
/h.
1. Identify a straight segment of pipework (preferably
horizontal) of appropriate length on the return line to the
pool (30 cm minimum is recommended).
2. Disassemble the Ei cell in order to recover only the lower
part of the paddle clamp (see picture below). For this
purpose, unscrew the locking ring of the electrode in order
to extract it from the paddle clamp (pay attention to the
small vertical translucent tube) (1).
3. Cautiously press on the two pushbuttons on either side of the lower part of the
paddle clamp to extract its upper part.
Remove the adapter for DN50 piping inserted in the lower part of the adapter
ring
4. Place the lower part of the Ei cell clamp on the location where you wish to
install the pipe.
Important: place the clamp upside down making sure
the two small holes are facing upward!
Use a marker or a centre punch to
indicate the locations of the two small holes to be made in the pipe.
5. Using a cylinder saw, drill the two holes for
mounting purposes. Ensure that the holes are
perfectly smooth around the edges (3).
6. Place the upper part of the Ei cell paddle clamp on
the pipe, sliding it into the previously drilled holes.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
> Water fl ows through the adaptor in a certain direction.
Please note the direction of the arrows indicating the water fl ow before
installing it!
> ‘UK’ English versions only with a 1 1/2 ‘’pipe: Replace the large fl at of the
upper part of the adapter ring with the specifi c model supplied (ring in
contact with the pipe).
