Measures required in addition to dosing with Bayrosoft
®
Before putting the system into operation, administer a shock chlorination using 25 g of Chlorifix per cubic metre of water. The
chlorine should act for at least 3 days.
A lined swimming pool with a new liner must be treated with chlorine for at least 14 days during which the chlorine level must be
kept constant at over 3 mg/l.
After this period, start the Bayrosoft
®
treatment immediately and do not wait for the chlorine level to break down.
Regular flocculation with Superflock Plus or the Flockmatic
®
dosing device (Quickflock Automatic Plus) is highly recommended.
Occasionally check that Bayrosoft
®
is present in the water. If possible, do this on the day preceding the next dosing (there should
still be at least 10 mg/l of Bayrosoft
®
in the pool).
To check this, simply dip a Bayrosoft
®
Quicktest - test strip into the water. A blue discolouration indicates that Bayrosoft
®
is present.
C)
Tips and tricks regarding inadequate water quality (Bayrosoft
®
)
Generally speaking, inadequate water quality is caused by a lack of Bayrosoft
®
in the swimming pool’s water over a long period of time.
Organic substances can build up in the water, resulting in cloudiness or causing the swimming pool walls to become slippery. When
this first occurs, check to see whether there is any Bayrosoft
®
in the water. Dip a Bayrosoft
®
test strip in the water shortly before the
next dosing takes place. The test strip must at least turn light blue (corresponds to approx. 10 mg/l). If no trace of Bayrosoft
®
can be
detected, increase the dose amount so that Bayrosoft
®
is always present in the water.
D)
How can the water quality be corrected?
If the problem is just that the water is cloudy but the pool walls are not slippery, a double manual dosage and the addition of a
Superflock Plus flocculation cartridge will be sufficient. The water quality will be correct by the next day.
If the water is cloudy and the pool walls are slippery, this indicates severe organic contamination and it will be necessary to
administer a single shock chlorination in order to return the water to the required quality. Note: Bayrosoft
®
and chlorine neutralise
each other, thereby rendering each other ineffective. Therefore, it must be ensured that no Bayrosoft
®
remains in the water before
applying chlorine. Otherwise the chlorine will be ineffective. Use the Bayrosoft
®
Quicktest -test strips. An effective shock
chlorination is only possible after there is no blue discolouration, indicating that there is no more Bayrosoft
®
in the water.
Recommended dose amount for an effective chlorine shock:
1 tablet of Chloriklar
®
per cubic metre or 25 grams of Chlorifix per cubic metre.
Important: When administering a shock chlorination, it is essential to clean the pool by mechanical means in addition. Slippery
deposits form a so-called "bio-film", which is not completely eliminated even with high concentrations of chlorine. As soon as the
slippery deposit is destroyed by mechanical cleaning, the chlorine can act and fully break down the organic contaminants. Resume
Bayrosoft
®
water treatment at least 24 hours but no later than 48 hours after the chlorine shock is administered. You do not need to
wait for the chlorine levels to break down.
Procedure for Putting into Operation
Bring the pH value of the pool water to 7.2. You can manually dose the pH to do so (see "pH measuring and control module"). If the
pH value differs widely from 7.2, you can use pH-Minus/pH-Plus in a granular form (it is important that you follow the dosing
instructions on the product package). Check the pH value with the supplied Pooltester / Bayrosoft
®
Quicktest - test strips.
Perform the shock chlorination specified under B).
Determine the basic dose according to the formula
and enter this value into the device as the basic dose.
When you adjust the pH value or perform a shock chlorination, you can simultaneously calibrate the pH electrode with the supplied
buffer solution. Apply the 1-point calibration method.
As soon as the pH value is close to the setpoints, you can set the control of the pH value and the O
2
automatic dosing system to
Auto. At high water temperatures, also activate the temperature compensation (see "Configuration O
2"
and "Functional Description
O
2"
).
We recommend that you monitor the control behaviour over a period of time and adjust it to the conditions prevailing in the pool, if
necessary.
In any case, it is necessary that you check the Bayrosoft
®
content in the pool water using the supplied Bayrosoft
®
test strips.
Shortly after the main dosing, the measured value should equal 35-50 mg/l (dark blue colour) and shortly before the next main
dosing the value should equal at least 10 mg/l (light blue colour).
