illuminate the " Cell" light when such cleaning is necessary. With correct water chemistry,
the Cell will typically only need cleaning once or twice a season.
When removing the Cell for cleaning or replacement:
1.
Turn off all power, close return line valves if applicable.
2.
Unplug the cell cable connecting the Cell to the Control Unit.
3.
Unscrew threaded collars around the PVC piping that connect the Cell to the return
line plumbing.
4.
Pull entire Cell away from the Unions. DO NOT pull or hold the Cell by its cable.
To clean the Cell of mineral buildup:
1.
Attach Cleaning Cap (sold separately) and orient the Cell vertically. Place on the
ground and stabilize so as to remain upright and prevent spilling.
2.
In a separate bucket, mix one part muriatic acid into four parts water.
Pour this weak acid solution directly into Cell. Ensure that the cleaning solution
COMPLETELY fills the inside of the Cell.
3.
Allow solution to soak for NO MORE THAN TEN MINUTES.
4.
Properly dispose of acid solution and use a hose to generously rinse the Cell.
5.
Reinstall Cell into PVC return line.
Note
: If mineral build-up is severe, more than one cleaning may be necessary to
dissolve remaining solids. Cleaning the Cell is only necessary to remove an excessive
build-up of minerals on the plates. A light coating of minerals does not impede
performance. Excessive cleaning will reduce lifespan of the cell. If submerging entire
Cell assembly, do not allow Cell cable to be covered by liquid.
IMPORTANT:
When cleaning the Cell always wear adequate protection, such as rubber
gloves and eye protection. Always add acid to water, do not add water to acid. Always work
in a well-ventilated area. Splashing or spilling acid can cause severe personal injury and/or
