Section 9. Inspecting and Cleaning
the Electrode
In areas that experience calcium hardness the cell
electrode will benefit from cleaning.
1. Switch off the filter pump and chlorine
generator, close necessary valves and unplug
the cell terminal cap.
2. Unscrew the retaining ring and remove the
electrode. If calcium buildup is present,
immerse the electrode in cell cleaning solution
without immersing the terminals.
3. We recommend using Zodiac Salt Chlorinator
Cell Cleaner to clean the electrode. However,
you can mix your own by carefully adding
one (1) part of Hydrochloric (Muriatic) acid to
ten (10) parts water. Stronger solutions will
shorten terminal life.
4. Allow the cleaning solution to dissolve the
calcium deposits for about 10 minutes.
Dispose of the cleaning solution at an
approved Council Depot and never into storm
water or sewage drains.
5. Rinse the electrode in clean water and re-fit
the electrode in the cell housing.
6. Replace the cell head and plug assembly.
7. Reset valves and switches.
8. Turn pump and controller on.
9. Confirm chlorine output and settings on
the power pack. Timer programs will be
automatically retained.

Winterizing
The chlorinator has a protective system which will
limit sanitizer production during unfavorable operating
conditions, such as cold water or lack of salt.
Active winterizing leaves the filter pump and
chlorinator running during the winter. This is safe for
temperatures above 10°C. If temperatures drop below
10°C, the chlorination cell needs to be deactivated.
Passive winterization calls for the pool to be shut
down. Water levels will need to be lowered and the
piping will need to be drained. The cell electrode
can be left in place with isolation valves open.
10.1 Winterize the pH Sensor
It is recommended that the plastic protective cap
of the pH sensor is kept to be used as storage
containers. The sensors must be stored wet in
either a KCl solution (3 mol/L) or tap water.
It is preferred that the sensors are stored in the
KCL solution if possible.
10.2 Reopening the Pool
Required actions:
1. Adjust the water level (too much or too little)
2. Check the water parameters.
3. TAC/TH/pH/Salinity/Chlorine/Stabilizing Agent/
Copper/Metals.
4. Adjust the parameters to obtain a balanced,
5. Check the condition of the equipment (pump,
filter, chlorinator, electrolytic cell).
6. Where necessary, check the sensors, clean if
needed and re-calibrate.
7. Once the salt level has reached the required
level of 4000 ppm and has dissolved in the
water, restart the salt chlorinator.
