2.
Low or Absent Water Flow through the Salt Cell
The water flow should always fully fill the entire Electrolytic Cell at all times. The minimum flow requirement is typically 30
gallons per minute. As the Electrolytic Cell has no ability to increase or decrease water flow, if the water is not completely
filling the Cell then that indicates a problem with the pool's circulation system. Common things to check include: check the
integrity of the o-rings on the pump and filter, clean or backwash your filter, check the water pressure from your pump
motor, check for cracks or leaks in the pool's plumbing and plumbing unions that could be allowing air to be sucked into the
circulation system.
3.
Bad Connection between Cell Cord and Cell Terminals
Ensure that all electrical connections are tight, free of corrosion, and fully seated.
Models with 3-plug connectors
Make sure the blue female cell cable connector is properly seated on the center brass post.
Make sure that none of the prongs on each female terminal are broken off.
Ensure that no dirt, debris or corrosion are causing a poor connection between the male and female terminals. If
dulled by corrosion, steel wool or fine sandpaper can be used to remove the corrosion.
Ensure that each female terminal is pressed fully on to each male terminal
Models with single circular plug
Use needle-nose pliers to crimp female connections on plug to ensure each has a tight connection to male terminals.
Ensure that plug is 100% seated on to male terminals. Removing the Cell's UV Shell case can allow easier access and
show if the plug is pressed fully into place.
Ensure that no dirt, debris or corrosion are causing a poor connection between the male and female terminals. If dulled
by corrosion, steel wool or fine sandpaper can be used to remove the corrosion.
4.
Cell has excessive scaling / mineral deposits / filter debris on titanium plates
The Electrolytic Cell should be free of calcium scale or any debris (hair, grass, etc..) that have accumulated between the titanium
plates. Frequency of cleaning is dependent upon your pool's water chemistry, but for many people is required just a couple
times per season (see Saturation Index, page 5, for help balancing the water). If present, the Cell is not able to pass along power
efficiently and needs to be cleaned. See page 18 for instructions.
5.
Loose or disconnected Titanium Plates in Electrolytic Cell caused by corrosive water
Remove and examine the titanium plates from within the Cell. Normal wear should not cause any significant thinning of the
metal, change of shape, degradation of edges, etching or pitting of surface, disconnection or separation of metal, or creation of
any holes in the metal. If such damage is present, it is not normal and is important to identify because it can be prevented
through water chemistry maintenance. In order to disassemble the cell for easy inspection, see instructions on page 19. See the
next few pages for examples.
The damage pictured in these examples is caused by the Saturation Index of the water being too low, causing the water to be
corrosive. (see “Saturation Index” on page 5). The recommended range for the Saturation Index is (-0.2 to +0.2).
