IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
a. All applicable electrical codes must be followed during and after installation. All connections to be made by a qualified electrician.
b. Disconnect all power at the main circuit breaker before installing the PROZONE unit.
c. WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product unless they are closely supervised at all times.
d.
DANGER
- Risk of electric shock.
a.) Replace damaged cord immediately.
b.) Do not bury cord.
c.) Connect only to a properly grounded, grounding type receptacle.
e. Install at least 5 feet from the inside wall of the pool using non-metallic plumbing. The ozone generator is to be located one foot above the
maximum water level to prevent water from contacting electrical equipment.
f. Wear safety glasses when drilling and tapping holes for installation of unit.
g. Turn off power at source breaker before servicing the unit.
h.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
INTRODUCTION TO OZONE
Ozone (O3) is generated by irradiating air or oxygen (O2) with ultraviolet radiation. Ozone is a molecule of oxygen that is formed when three atoms of oxygen are bound together
instead of the normal two atoms. The extra oxygen atom makes ozone the most powerful oxidizer and sanitizer readily available.
Since ozone is unstable and quickly reverts to normal oxygen under normal conditions, it cannot be shipped or stored. Therefore, it must be manufactured on site for immediate
use. In normal pool water it lasts just long enough to purify the water - less than 1 second.
Although ozone is mainly thought of as a sanitizer, it acts primarily as an oxidizer in the pool environment. In a typical pool using chlorine only, up to 90 percent of the chlorine
may be used up in reactions unrelated to disinfection. The byproduct of these reactions is combined chlorine (chloramines). Combined chlorine is the cause of eye irritation, odor,
and the other unpleasant side effects of chlorination.
When ozone is used, it oxidizes a large portion of the contaminants (usually referred to as bather load) which result in the reduction of combined chlorine. The result is that more
chlorine is available for disinfection and less chlorine is required to maintain the pool which eliminates the harmful byproducts. Ozone also provides some disinfection, but an
ozone residual cannot be established, so the use of chlorine or bromine is always recommended.
PREPARING FOR INSTALLATION
1.
Check electrical system: 240VAC double switched per N.E.C. standards recommended; 120VAC single
switched.
2.
Check for and correct all leaks in plumbing.
3.
Check for Suction Line Check Valve. Equipment may draw air if no check valve is present.
4.
Balance the pH.
5.
Backwash the filter.
6.
Shock the pool with a non-lithium-based material. The use of Calcium Hypochlorite or Sodium
Hypochlorite is recommended.
NOTE:
If the pool has a Diatomaceous Earth (DE) filter, a 3/4" ball valve is recommended between the pump
and Venturi Injector.
NOTE:
If the pump and filter are below the water level of the pool, see special note on Page 3.
