The extra chlorine can be provided by a Dua l ORP Chemistry Controller, simple chlorine injection device such as a
chlorine pump/feeder, or by simply keeping enough chemical chlorine on hand to manually cope with an emergency. The
manufacturer does not recommend manually feeding chlorine.
Remember that the Electrolytic Cell will need to be replaced/ re-conditioned periodically and this may mean a sma ll
amount of down - time for the system.
Minimum Flow Rates for Optimum Cell Efficiency
The following flow rate through the cell for the ECO-matic COMM 2400 Automatic Chlorine Generator
are recommended for optimum efficiency:
Required Flow Rates
Approx. Pressure Drop
(Based on Mins)
Model
Liters per

Note: While the flow rate stated is optimal, we understand that it is not feasible to achieve on a consistent basis. Please
keep flow rate as close to the minimum as possible while not exceeding maximum flow stated in the table.
Testing Cell Flow Rate
A flow meter must be installed into the cell line to verify correct flow.
A Rolachem flow meter 5-7.5cm (2” or 3”) should be installed into the cell line – one flow meter per installed ECO-matic.
Install the flow meter per manufacturer’s instructions on the 5-7.5cm (2” or 3”) by-pass line leading to the electrolytic cell.
ELECTROLYTIC CELL PLUMBING
The Electrolytic Cell has been designed to operate in a bypass on the pool return line. Water flow through the cell must
be in the flow range specified on page 4 and the water from the cell should be returned to the pool return line as quickly
as possible.
A sample line should be installed after the cell to allow testing of water from the Cell.
A clear viewing area is also useful to allow a v isual check of electrolysis (cloudy water).
A number of possible
installation methods follow:
SALTPRO PLUMBING
An in-line zinc anode called SaltPro should be installed in-line and will serve as a sacrificial component. It is housed in a
7.62cm slip tee with clear PVC for visual inspection.
Location:
The SaltPro should be glued in the bypass line prior to the electrolytic cell. Install one SaltPro per each body of water.
The anode itself shall have a permanently attached bonding lug which shall be connected to the main bonding loop with a
#8 bonding wire.
The SaltPro is fitted with a manual bleeder valve for the installer to ensure, post installation that the air is
removed from the tee and the zinc makes contact with the water flow
