Setting the Chlorine Output Level
Factors to consider:
-
number of gallons in the pool
-
number of bathers (bather load)
-
pollen and dust concentration
-
number of hours the pump runs
-
single or variable speed pump use
-
climate and water temperature
-
amount of introduced rain water Pools at <57,000 L (15K gallons) start at 40%. Pools at 95,000 L – 114,000 L (25K -
30K gallons) start at 60%.
If these levels do not result in 2 - 4 PPM chlorine residual, raise the output level.
If the output level is >90% and tested water shows insufficient chlorine residual, you may need to shock the pool or add
Cyanuric Acid (CYA) to protect against UV degradation.
More pump runtime will result in more chlorine in the water.
It may take several adjustments over several days to find the right production rate for your application.
*When connected to an automation system via RS485, full control of the Jandy TruClearXL system is given over to the
automation controller. No functionality will persist at the Jandy TruClearXL UI. In order to control the Jandy TruClearXL from
the UI, the automation system must first be placed into service mode.
