6.4 Installation of the Chlorine Sensor 

 

If you have chosen to have the pH sensor installed, you can now choose to have the chlorine sensor installed.  
The chlorine sensor takes away the need to test the chlorine level in your pool and allows the Viron e-Quilibrium to 
automatically control the chlorine and pH levels of your pool and spa water.  This option is highly recommended for 
pool and spa combinations, spa pools and indoor pools and spas. 
 
The chlorine sensor is provided with a 3 metre RJ12 cable for connection to a Viron variable speed energy efficient 
pump.   However, the chlorine sensor is simply screwed into the pH sensing chamber and connected to the bottom 
of the Viron e-Quilibrium controller.   Once connected, the e-Quilibirum will automatically detect the sensor and the 
factory preset chlorine level of 700 mv will operate. 
 

   Locate the Mixing Cell as per section 6.4 after the Chlorinator Cell.  The mixing cell must have the pH sensor 

installed and the acid feeder tube installed.  The remaining ports are blanked off using the caps and gaskets 
supplied. 
 

  Assembly of the Chlorine Sensor.  Remove rubber boot from sensor and screw into 50mm T piece which is 

glued into pipework either before filter or between filter and Chlorinator cell. 

 

 

The Chlorine Sensor uses Oxidisation Reduction Potential readings to determine the chlorine level in your pool or 
spa water.  
 
ORP is the most reliable and safest way to determine the level of the sanitiser in your water but is affected by other 
factors influencing the efficiency of the chlorine.   Water pH, the use of sunscreens (cyanuric acid), Hardness  and 
other items can all influence the reading of the ORP.   
 
The Viron e-Quilibrium will adjust the production of chlorine to meet the ORP which MAY mean the chlorine level, 
when measured in simple PPM (parts per million) levels, may change from time to time.  This is normal and no 
cause for concern.   An example of higher chlorine readings when measured in ppm is if the acid runs out and is 
not replaced.  In this case, the pH will start to increase and the effectiveness of the chlorine will reduce.  As the 
chlorine effectiveness reduces the ORP measurement declines and the Viron e-Quilibrium will increase the power 
to the electrode cell to produce more chlorine.  Once the pH level is corrected the Viron e-Quilibrium will reduce or 
turn off the power to the electrode cell as the ORP reading will rise. 
 
When the pH and chlorine sensors are connected, the Viron e-Quilibrium LCD screen will display the additional 
following messages: 
 
Chlorine Level 

– (chlorine low, chlorine OK, chlorine high) 

Cell Was operating at  (percentage of maximum output, 

or “off”) 

 
pH set point (factory preset at 7.6) 
pH actual (will read close to set point providing acid container has acid available to be dosed)
