PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS
RECOMMENDATIONS BEFORE INSTALLATION
- The chlorinator must be installed at the last position of the water circulation pipe (down the direction of the water flow) as shown in “1a. and 1b.”.
- Only use sodium chloride (NaCl) salt with a purity of at least 99.8% to fully dissolve it.
- Too low salt content will reduce the efficiency of the chlorinator and result in low chlorine production. High salt content may produce a salty taste to the pool water and it may cause corrosion to metal fixtures and fittings in the pool.
- The “Pool Salt Table” shows the correct amount of salt required. Refer to the different quantity of water. The salt in the pool will not automatically decrease. Only when the pool water is lost will the salt in the water decrease, and the evaporation of water will not cause the salt to decrease.
If the device shows error E2, it is necessary to reduce the salt
concentration: Drain about 20% of the pool water, and then refill with clean
water. Wait 1 hour, and if the error still remains, repeat the operation until
the E2 error disappears. In case the quantity of water of your pool is not
listed in the “pool salt table”, follow the below formula to calculate the
correct quantity of salt to add to the pool to reach the 3000 ppm of salt
concentration, or in case the E1 error appears on the display.
USING THE CHLORINATOR
Standby mode: At the end of the cycle, the display shows “00”. At this time, the chlorinator will automatically enter the standby mode. The day after, approximately at the same time, it will automatically run again. If you unplug the Chlorinator, connect the plug the next day, and press the power button, the chlorinator will work according to the working hours set the previous day.
Recommended Pool Working Time Set Table
- This table shows the recommended working hours for the normal maintenance of the chlorinator connected to the pool.
- For cleaning the pool, please run it at 1.5-2 times the time shown in the table for the first use, and run it according to the normal working hours once the chlorine level is reached.
- On the first use or if the water in the pool is dirty, run the chlorinator until the level of chlorine is correct or the water is clean. Refer to the working time shown in the table below.
It is recommended to cover the surface of the pool during the operation of the product to help increase the level of chlorine in the pool.
ATTACHING A BASE TO THE CHLORINATOR
Follow the below instructions. There must be two holes with a diameter of 8 mm and a spacing of 165 mm on the base. The product can be fixed on a cement base or a wooden platform. The total weight of the base should not be less than 18 kg to protect the chlorinator from accidentally falling over.
MAINTENANCE
ELECTROLYTIC CELL
To clean the electrolytic cell, follow the instruction in the section . Drawings are for illustration purposes only. May not reflect actual product. Not to scale. In order to maintain the best results, we recommend opening and checking the electrodes every month. However, if the water quality of the swimming pool is hard water (high content of calcium and magnesium ions), the electrodes may need to be cleaned manually on a regular basis. To clean the electrolytic cell, it is suggested to use a solution of 50% water/50% vinegar, or check with your pool dealer the suitable chemical product. Be sure to avoid chemical product that can damage the Titanium plate.
WATER CHEMICAL BALANCE
- If the concentration of chlorine exceed the recommended level, it can be dangerous to use the pool. Test the chemical balance before using the pool. If using the test strip, check the expiration date, as the test result may be inaccurate if passed the expiration date. BESTWAY® TEST STRIPS (INCLUDED IN THE PRODUCT) The test strips can test the concentration of “free chlorine”, “PH” and “total alkalinity” in the water at the same time. It is recommended to check the level of the chemical in the water every day and before use.
- Immerse a whole strip of test paper in water and take it out immediately.
- Keep the test paper level and wait for 15 seconds. Do not shake off excess water.
- Please compare the “free chlorine”, “PH” and “total alkalinity” grades of the test paper with the color plate attached to the bottle.
STORAGE
- Remove all accessories; be sure to clean and dry all before the storage. If all the parts are not completely dry, mold may result. We strongly recommend to disassemble the Chlorinator when the environment temperature is below 10ºC / 50ºF.
- Store the Chlorinator in a dry place with a moderate temperature between 10ºC / 50ºF and 38ºC / 100ºF.
