GEMAŞ PURITRON GSC Installation and User Manual
V4.1
3.3. Use of the device
3.3.1. Switching the Device to On (ON) - Off (OFF) Mode
When the GSC Salt Water Chlorinator is powered and started, the switch at the bottom of the device (2.1.
Control Unit Installation, Item 3) must be turned on. The device will be in On (ON) or Off (OFF) mode according
to the last mode it was in. The mode in which the device is can be understood from the status of the LCD
display. The production screen is displayed when the device is in the ON mode, and the “PURITRON” is
displayed in the OFF mode.
3.3.2. Switching the Device to Chlorine Production
The device is turned on with the on / off button (3.1. Control Panel Item 2). Instantaneous CL production
percentage, polarity direction icon will appear on the screen of the device. In the meantime, the CL production
percentage can be increased or decreased by pressing the direction buttons. Also, if the OK button is pressed
once, the current drawn by the electrodes is shown and then it will disappear automatically.
3.3.3. Switching the Device to Boost Mode
The chlorine need of the pool is provided quickly,thanks to the Boost Mode on the device. Device runs at full
capacity for 8 hours and then returns to the production capacity set in the normal operation with the Boost
Mode. When the device is in ON mode, the device is switched to Boost mode by holding down the OK button for
3 seconds.When the device is in boost mode, “BOOST” appears where CL production rate is shown.
While the device is working in Boost mode ; changing the production capacity with the
directional buttons takes the device out of Boost mode.
3.3.4. Operating the Device with the Pool Cover
Thanks to the pool cover closing control on the device; it allows adjustment of chlorine production rate when
the cover is closed. A dry contact switch is connected to the pool cover closing control connection socket. When
the pool cover is closed,the signal from switch brings the device to the cover mode and its symbol appears on
display.When the device operates in the “covered” mode, the desired production value is increased and
decreased by the direction buttons.
4.CLEANING - MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
4.1. Electrode Cleaning
Although the physical properties of the water used vary according to geographical regions, it inevitably
contains certain proportions of calcium, magnesium, iron and other minerals. While the water is cold, these
suspended minerals separate from the water during electrolysis, some of which adhere to the electrodes in the
reservoir. After a certain time, the electrodes are completely covered with a substance called lime. Since the
lime layer is insulating, they make the electrical flow between electrodes difficult. As a result, chlorine
production efficiency drops. This lime formed on the electrodes should be cleaned periodically.
This cleaning process device; It has the feature of automatically changing the polarization. However, in cases
where the calcium concentration is too high, this feature may not completely remove the limescale. The lime
residue in the cell should be checked regularly and the cell should be cleaned manually when necessary.
1.
Turn off the pump and salt chlorine generator.
2.
Close the water inlet and water outlet valves of the electrode cell.
3.
Open the threaded electrode head, remove the electrode cable from the terminal properly and take the
electrode out of the chamber.
4.
Ideally, if the electrode is allowed to dry for a day, the limescale will release itself. Take care and pay
attention not to damage the sensitive cap of the electrode during the procedure. During this process, never hit
the electrode with metal material that could scratch it. Pressurized water can be used to dissolve limescale.
5.
If the pressurized water could not remove the scale residue, you can immerse the electrode in a 20%
hydrochloric acid solution. The terminals on the upper part of the electrode should not come into contact with
the solution.
6.
Immediately after cleaning, the electrode should be rinsed with clean water, the location of the terminals
should be carefully dried and reassembled.
Never keep the electrode in acid for more than 5 minutes! Do not scratch the electrode with
metal objects! For safety reasons, dilute the acid with water!
