CHLORINE PRODUCTION:
The ChloroMatic must be run daily to generate sufficient chlorine to sanitise the pool. During Summer this is
approximately eight hours per day, preferably in two periods - between 6.00 and 8.00am and between 5.00 and
11.00pm. Night time is preferable because chlorine dissipates rapidly in direct sunlight. If these running times are
observed, and the Cell is functioning correctly, your pool will have sufficient chlorine when tested in the morning.
If the level is too low either longer running times are required or the
Sanitiser Output Control
needs to be
adjusted to maximum. Harsh local conditions such as traffic pollution or windborne dust require different running
times, in which case, seek advice from your pool shop. During Winter approximately 4 to 6 hours a day should
provide enough chlorine. Without sufficient filtration/chlorination, your pool will never function correctly.
ALWAYS
RUN THE FILTER WHEN SWIMMING IN THE POOL
. In extremely hot weather or during periods of heavy bathing
loads, the running time may need to be extended to 10 - 14 hours per day.
In some cases you may find your chlorine level to be too high. To determine if this is the case, run your filter/
chlorinator for the suggested times/chlorine production level and test your pool water on the morning after
operation. If your chlorine test shows a high level of chlorine, either the running times can be reduced slightly, or
the
Sanitiser Output Control
can be turned anti - clockwise. Test your chlorine level again the following morning
at around the same time. If your chlorine level is still high, repeat the above process until the correct level is
attained.
“SHOCK” TREATMENT:
Periodically, especially during extremely hot conditions, it may be necessary to boost the amount of chlorine in
your pool in order to maintain absolute sanitation of the water. This can be achieved by adding either liquid or
granulated chlorine. If granulated chlorine is added, the Cell must be checked regularly, since the additives from
this product will clog the electrodes. Alternatively, extend the running time of your ChloroMatic.
CHLORINE TYPES AND COMPARISONS / MAX POOL SIZE:
Many chlorinator manufacturers calibrate their units to compare with 65% granulated chlorine, making it necessary
to adjust their readings to a lower level in order to determine true chlorine production. The Display on your
ChloroMatic expresses production as pure 100% chlorine so you will know the exact output of your Unit. Below is
a comparison table of the available types of chlorine used to sanitise pools.

SAFETY DEVICE:
Hydrogen Gas is a by-product of the chlorine producing process. A Gas Sensor has been incorporated into the
Unit and Cell, which will switch off chlorination if gas is detected in the Cell Housing or there is no water flow.
ChloroMatic Units are also fitted with a Thermal Cut-out to prevent overheating. If the temperature rises too high,
power is automatically disconnected. The Unit will resume operation when it cools down.
Note: When used exclusively with magnesium and potassium mineral salts, the chlorine production is 50%
of the normal rated output. However, if used as an additive to normal salt pools, the rated output is similar.
