3.
Pool Water Sample.
Take water sample to local pool store for testing.
4.
Stabilizer (Cyanuric Acid).
Test pool water stabilizer (cyanuric acid) level using a test kit or by having a water
sample tested by a pool professional. Maintain ideal range of 10 - 50 ppm. Follow your pool professional’s
recommendations. For indoor pools, it is not necessary to add chlorine stabilizer to the swimming pool water.
5.
Metals Test.
It is recommended that the pool water be tested periodically for the presence of metals such as iron,
and manganese. These metals should not be present in the pool water. If those metals are present, contact your
local pool professional.
NOTE
DO NOT add pool or spa chemicals directly to the skimmer. This may damage the cell.
6.3
Cleaning the Cell
The power pack has an automatic cell cleaning feature (polarity reversing) that removes scale deposits from the cell
(see Section 5.6).
Scale will form in excessively hard water or from pool water that is out of balance and in a scaling condition. Following
the installation of the Zodiac AquaPure Ei Series APURE35C chlorine generating device, check the cell once a month for
signs of scale.
If the cell has a tendency to scale, it is recommended that every month the cell be removed and inspected for scale
formation and/or debris. Some filters allow debris to pass through to the cell which could lodge between the plates in the
cell. A small amount of scale formation is normal. If by looking through the cell it is observed that there is excessive scale
formation between the plates or debris is present, the cell must be cleaned as follows:
1.
Ensure that all power to the power pack and the controller is disconnected/turned off at the circuit breaker.
2.
Before removing the cell for cleaning, shut off any necessary valves to prevent any water loss.
3.
Open the air relief valve to release any pressure in the pool system.
4.
Remove the terminal cap and cell leads.
5.
Undo the locking ring. If required, use the locking ring tool provided (see Figure 26).
6.
Remove the cell (see Figure 27).
7.
Refit the cap on the cell and invert (see Figure 28).
8.
With protective glasses and gloves on, add one (1) part muriatic acid to ten (10) parts water and mix.
9.
Fill the cell to the top of the electrode plates with the acid solution. A foaming action will begin, which is caused
by scale (calcium carbonate) being dissolved from the plates. If rigorous foaming action does not begin, the cell
does not need to be cleaned (STOP THE CLEANING PROCESS - go to the step 10). Otherwise allow the cell to
remain in the solution until the foaming has stopped (approximately 5 - 10 minutes).
10.
After the cell has been cleaned, dispose of the solution by pouring it into the pool water or dispose of according to
local regulations.
11.
Rinse the cell thoroughly with clean tap water and inspect. If deposits are still visible on the electrolytic cell,
repeat step 9.
NOTE
Excessive acid washing will damage the electrolytic cell.
Do not leave in acid for more than 30 minutes.
12.
If the cell is clean, reattach the cell as described in Section 3.3. The life expectancy of the electrolytic cell is
10,000 hours under normal use conditions. When replacing the cell, use only replacement cells having a label that
clearly states that it is a replacement cell for the chlorine generating device Zodiac AquaPure Ei Series
