2.0 Installation Viron e-Quilibrium chlorinator
The Viron e-Quilibrium Chlorinator incorporates a controller with inbuilt acid pump, an electrode cell for converting
minerals or salts into chlorine, a mounting plate for the controller and tubes, weights and injection points for the acid which
controls your pool water pH. The intelligent software allows you to select and change your acid dosing ratio and
intelligently adjusts the dose rate to match the output of the electrode. (The higher the output, the faster the pH will
change and the more the controller will dose acid to compensate).
However, you MUST test your pH every day for the
first week and adjust your acid dose rate on the controller to achieve the correct pH level.
2.1 pH levels
:
Generally you should aim to have your pH at 7.4 to 7.8. The actual pH you choose for your pool will depend on the water
quality in your area, the interior finish of your pool and the type of pool you have.
2.2 Mounting the Controller
:
Choose a location that is preferably out of direct sunlight, near the filter system. The controller should be located 1 metre
above ground level to prevent rain splash back or sprinkler system damage to the underside of the controller. The
controller must be mounted on a vertical surface/wall. If mounted on a post, a flat sheet 20mm larger than the controller
housing must be used.
a.
Mount the wall bracket using the screws provided on a secure wall.
b.
Glue sensing chamber for probe into plumbing line after filter and gas heater (if installed) but prior to chlorinator
cell.
Sensor Chamber must be plumbed to ensure probe is horizontal to water flow.
c.
Glue Chlorinator cell into line as per drawing below after filter, heater, solar (if installed) and after sensor T piece.
d.
Plug the pH sensor into the underside of the controller in the location ma
rked “pH”
.
e.
Plug filter pump 3 pin plug into underside of Controller.
f.
Connect 4 wire cell cable ensuring matching colours.
g.
Remove cap from pH sensor and screw firmly into sensor chamber installed in the plumbing. Do Not Over tighten.
h.
The cell
must
be installed with the barrel unions underneath and the cell should be horizontal. Both 40mm and
50mm fittings have been provided. Make sure that the
‘o’rings are correctly fitted and the unions are done up
tightly. Flow direction through the cell is critical
–
refer to label on housing.
i.
Hang Controller on wall bracket and plug power supply lead into 3 pin 10 amp outlet.
