Maintenance
Although the Self-Cleaning chlorinator is designed to greatly reduce the need to clean the salt
cell plates, inspection and removal of small calcium build up will be periodically required to insure
correct performance.
Salt Cell Cleaning Procedure
1. Press the
ON/OFF
button on the power pack to turn the pump
and Electrochlor to standby mode.
2. Unscrew the barrel unions from the salt cell and disconnect
the cables from the salt cell’s brass connectors.
3. Turn the salt cell housing upside down with both ports facing
upwards.
4. Pour the Cell Wash cleaning solution into the housing to dissolve the calcium build-up from the
salt cell plates. There should be just enough solution to cover the salt cell plates.
5. Allow enough time for the solution to dissolve the calcium build-up from the salt cell plates.
Approximately 5 to 10 minutes.
6. Once the calcium build-up has been removed, pour out the Cell Wash solution into a bucket
and lightly rinse-off excess calcium and Cell Wash solution from the salt cell assembly, with
fresh water.
7. Reconnect the salt cell onto the filter system.
8. Press the
ON/OFF
button on the power pack to reactivate the pump and Electrochlor.
Never use products that are not specifically manufactured to clean the Electrochlor’s salt
cell. Do not use raw acids such as hydrochloric acid. This will damage the salt cell and
severely shortens its life and will void warranty. Please consult your local pool professional
for advice on salt cell cleaning products.
