1.1 MODEL SR6000S
The SR6000S is a chemical controller capable of maintaining water quality, by
monitoring the ph and ORP of a water source and by automatically feeding chemicals with
two built-in feed pumps. The chemical levels are tightly controlled with timed feed cycles.
To prevent overshoot the feed time has a 5% proportional adjustment. At 5% away form
set point the feed pump will be a maximum feed time. Within 5% of set point the feed
time will decrease linearly as set point is approached.

O
PERATION MANUAL
explains the procedures for proper
installation and operation of the SR6000S series controller. Chapter two (2) the
Installation
section, introduces the parts of the controller and the process to follow when
installing the electrical and plumbing portions. Chapter three (3) the Programming and
Operation, describes all the available functions of the controller, from navigating to
initializing the SR6000S.
If there are any questions after reading this manual, please contact your local Sta-Rite
dealer or Sta-Rite directly.
1.3 IMPORTANCE OF WATER MAINTENANCE
The SR6000S will effectively maintain the bacteriological and physiological requirements
of state and local Health Departments. In addition, the SR6000S helps to protect the
equipment from the effects of improper water balance.
The National Swimming Pool Foundation recommends the following guidelines for
chemical automation, (local health codes may differ):
Filtration – Minimum turnover rate of six (6) hours for a pool and thirty (30) minutes for
a spa.
Water Balance – pH 7.2 – 7.6, alkalinity 80-120 PPM.
Oxidation Reduction Potential (ORP) – A minimum 650 mV to maximum 750 mV the
preferred.
Total Dissolved Solids – Should not exceed 2000 PPM.
