Special case, shock chlorination
Requisite user qualification:
TRAINED SPECIALIST
Shock chlorination may only be performed by a
TRAINED SPECIALIST as defined in the chapter
User
qualification.
HAZARD!
Overdosage via shock chlorination
With shock chlorination, the standard chlorine
concentration in the pool is usually significantly
exceeded. Shock chlorination is
not
blocked by a top
alarm, such that the chlorine value can also rise to be
significantly higher than the top alarm threshold!
Potential consequence: Gravest degree of injury,
heavy material damage.
•
Calculate the correct dosing amount for shock
chlorination carefully.
•
Close off the pool for swimming following shock
chlorination.
•
Swimming may not take place again until the
concentration of free chlorine has dropped below 3
mg/l (perform DPD measurement)!
Shock chlorination is a special kind of manual dosing. PoolManager
®
Cl offers shock chlorination in the menu
Manual dosing mV (Cl).
Shock chlorination is a special kind of manual dosing. PoolManager
®
PRO offers shock chlorination in the menu
Manual dosing Cl (or Br).
For shock chlorination, the dosing amount is calculated based on the
pool volume. In doing so, the recommended amount of 0.2 litre
ChloriLiquid per 10m³ of pool volume is used as a foundation.
However, the thus calculated dosing amount can still be changed
manually. For effective shock chlorination, the chlorine concentration
in the pool should be at least 5 mg/l.
Pressing the button
start shock chlorination
will start dosing.
Otherwise, the shock chlorination process corresponds exactly to
normal manual dosing.
15.5
Special case, pump test (pH / Cl or Br / mV / O2)
‘HAZARD!
Gaseous chlorine produced from dosing in
standing water in a pump test
If the there is a dosing of maintenance product during a
pump test while circulation is not running, then gaseous
chlorine may be produced when ChloriLiquid meets
with pH minus.
Potential consequence: Death or the gravest
degree of injury,
heavy material damage.
•
Perform pump tests while circulation is running or
absent of product dosage.
The pump test function is used to quickly check whether the individual
dosage pumps are connected correctly and are fundamentally
operational. There is
no
alarm block during a pump test, i.e. the
corresponding pump should definitely be running during a pump test. If
that is not the case, then there is an error in the pump or in the
electrical connection.
The duration of the pump test is limited to a maximum of 60 seconds
for safety reasons.
Otherwise, the pump test process corresponds exactly to normal
manual dosing.

Safety functions and alarms
16.1
Overview
PoolManager
®
continuously monitors all relevant data and operating
statuses in order to guarantee safe operation and optimum water
quality.
If PoolManager
®
discovers a problem while doing so, then it will
generate an alarm message notifying of the problem. Some alarm
statuses block product dosing until the alarm's cause has be
remediated.
PoolManager
®
monitors the following alarm statuses.
•
Upper and Lower alarms (pH, mV, temperature)
are triggered when there is a measured value outside the
configured alarm thresholds.
•
Flow alarm
is triggered when circulation is not running or if there is no
measurement water flow for some other reason.
•
Level warning (pH, Cl, mV, O2)
is triggered when a canister with maintenance product (pH minus,
ChloriLiquid, or BayroSoft) contains only a certain residual amount
(e.g. 5 l).
The suction lance in the product canister delivers a corresponding
signal once the threshold is reached.
Level warning and level alarms can be deactivated in the menu
"Alarm settings" if there is no suitable low-level signal available.
•
Level alarm (pH, Cl, mV, O2)
is triggered when a canister with maintenance product (pH minus,
ChloriLiquid, or BayroSoft) is empty.
Level warnings and level alarms can be deactivated in the menu
"Alarm settings" if there is no suitable low-level signal available.
•
Intelligent dosing monitoring (pH, Cl, mV)
is triggered when PoolManager
®
does not successfully approach
the setpoint within a predefined time (typically 60 minutes). In this
case, PoolManager
®
will assume there is a potential problem and
block further dosing.
•
Battery alarm
is triggered when the voltage on the buffer battery installed on the
PoolManager
®
unit drops below the threshold of 2.70V. In this
case, the battery should be replaced within a few weeks. The
buffer battery supplies PoolManager
®
real-time clock with voltage
while turned off.
