Your pump/filter system is operated under pressure and the pressure must be released before you begin work. Please see your pump/filter owner’s manual for further instructions.
DANGER
To reduce the risk of injury, do not remove the suction fittings of your spa or hot tub. Never operate a spa or hot tub if the suction fittings are broken or missing. Never replace a suction fitting with one rated less than the flow rate marked on the equipment assembly.
WARNING
When mixing acid with water, ALWAYS ADD ACID TO WATER. NEVER ADD WATER TO ACID.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire or injury, service should only be attempted by a qualified pool service professional.
WARNING
This product, if not operated properly, can form high concentrations of chlorine gas which can be harmful.
WARNING
PREVENT CHILD DROWNING: Do not let anyone, especially small children, sit, step, lean or climb on any equipment installed as part of your pool’s operational system. Locate the components of your operational system at least three (3) feet (1 m) from the pool so children cannot use the equipment to access the pool and be injured or drown.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH · The water in a spa should never exceed 104°F (40°C). Water temperatures between 100°F (38°C)
and 104°F (40°C) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are recommended for young children and when spa use exceeds 10 minutes. · Since excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal damage during the early months of pregnancy, pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit spa water temperatures to 100°F (38°C). · Before entering a spa or hot tub, the user should measure the water temperature with an accurate thermometer since the tolerance of water temperature-regulating devices varies. · The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa or hot tub use may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning. · Obese persons and persons with a history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa. · Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a spa or hot tub since some medication may induce drowsiness while other medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation.

WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH · People with infectious diseases should not use a spa or hot tub. · To avoid injury, exercise care when entering or exiting the spa or hot tub. · Do not use drugs or alcohol before or during the use of a spa or hot tub to avoid unconsciousness
and possible drowning. · Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should consult a physician before using a spa or hot tub. · Water temperature in excess of 100°F (38°C) may be injurious to your health. · Before entering a spa or hot tub measure the water temperature with an accurate thermometer. · Do not use a spa or hot tub immediately following strenuous exercise. · Prolonged immersion in a spa or hot tub may be injurious to your health. · Do not permit any electric appliance (such as a light, telephone, radio, or television) within five (5)
feet (1.52 m) of a spa or hot tub. · The use of alcohol, drugs or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in hot tubs
and spas.
WARNING
Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6°F (37°C). The symptoms of hyperthermia include dizziness, fainting, drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase in the internal temperature of the body. The effects of hyperthermia include: · Unawareness of impending danger; · Failure to perceive heat; · Failure to recognize the need to exit spa; · Physical inability to exit spa; · Fetal damage in pregnant women; and/or · Unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning. · The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of hyperthermia.
CAUTION
It is important to note that certain materials used in and around swimming pools and spas may not be compatible with chemicals commonly used to purify pool and spa water (e.g. acids, chlorine, salt, stabilizers, etc.).
As such, Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc. does not warrant or guarantee that the chlorinated water generated by the Nature2 Fusion will not damage or destroy certain types of plants, decking, coping and other materials in and around your pool and/or spa. Before selecting materials to be used in and around your pool and/or spa, please discuss all options with your contractor to assess the compatibility of such materials and chemicals.
Some helpful considerations may include: · Choosing plants that can withstand splash out of pool water containing chlorine and/or salt and other
water purification chemicals. · All metal components used in and around a pool should be of a high grade, quality stainless steel. · Careful selection of masonry products. The porosity and hardness of natural stones varies greatly.
Therefore we recommend you consult with your builder or stone contractor on the best choice for stone materials around your pool or spa. · Sealing all masonry products. Professionals in the stone industry specify that even natural stone, especially when used outdoors, be sealed to prevent weathering, staining, and premature degradation. Consult with your stone or deck contractor for the proper sealer for the masonry products you have selected to use around your pool or spa. · For optimal results, sealers should be reapplied on a regular basis. Reapply the protective sealer on a schedule per the manufacturer’s instructions.

Figure 1. Nature2 Fusion Soft Components
2.1 Product Description The Nature2 Fusion Soft is an all-in-one, sanitizing system which includes mineral sanitization and saltwater chlorination technologies in one housing, that can be interfaced with a centralized pool control system.
The Nature2 Fusion Soft uses a dual approach to sanitizing pool water. The first process is Zodiac’s Nature2 technology which delivers controlled trace amounts of beneficial minerals to help reduce bacteria and maintain algae free pool. The mineral cartridge reduces the amount of chlorine your pool requires, which dramatically improves the water quality and extends the life of the electrolytic cell. The second process is known as electrolysis which produces chlorine from a low concentration of salt added to the pool water. Chlorine kills bacteria, oxidizes organic material, and kills algae then reverts back to salt. The Nature2 Fusion Soft then reuses the salt to repeat the process again.
2.2 Nature2 Fusion Soft Components The Nature2 Fusion Soft system is comprised of the following components:
Nature2 FUSIONM Power Pack (for stand alone systems, sold separately)
· The Nature2 FUSIONM power pack converts AC power into low voltage DC current which is required by the cell to perform the electrolysis.
· The LCD display offers monitoring of chlorine production, cell modes, salinity level, temperature, water flow and diagnostics.
· The power pack is connected with the pool circulation pump electrical source so that the electrolytic cell can only operate when the pool pump is on. The flow portion of the flow/temp/salinity sensor is a backup device only.

Zodiac® Nature2® Fusion soft | Installation and Operation Manual

AquaLink® RS PureLinkTM Power Center (For centralized pool control system, sold separately)

· The PureLink system is an all-in-one saltwater chlorinator control system power center for use with AquaLink RS PDA, All Button, Pool Link, or OneTouchTM controllers.
· The AquaLink RS PureLink power center converts AC power into low voltage DC current which is required by the cell to perform the electrolysis.
· The LCD display offers monitoring of chlorine production, cell modes, salinity level, temperature, water flow and diagnostics.
· The chlorine generator electronics are connected with the pool circulation pump electrical source so that the electrolytic cell only operates when the pool pump is on. The flow portion of the flow/temp/salinity sensor is a backup device only.

Nature2 Fusion Sanitizing Vessel

· The sanitizing vessel uses a combination of an electrolytic cell and a mineral cartridge. The electrolytic cell contains bipolar electrodes which perform the electrolysis and produce chlorine when energized with DC current. Chlorine is generated as pool water containing salt passes through the cell. The chlorine production can be varied by either adjusting the Chlorine Production Level on the power center or by varying the number of hours the Nature2 Fusion Soft is on each day. The Nature2 Fusion Soft automatically cleans the electrodes once every three (3) hours by reversing polarity. This does not interrupt the production of chlorine. The mineral cartridge delivers controlled trace amount of silver and copper that works in conjunction with the chlorine to maintain an algae-free pool.

Flow/Temperature/Salinity/Sensor

· The flow portion of the flow/temp/salinity sensor helps detect if there is adequate water flow through the vessel. · The salinity portion of the flow/temp/salinity sensor detects the level of salt in the pool water. This salt level is
displayed in grams per liter (GPL) on the liquid crystal display (LCD) whenever the salinity button is pressed. This eliminates the need for manual pool water salinity testing.
· Pool temperature is displayed by pressing the temperature button.
1 gram per liter (GPL) = 1000 ppm (parts per million)

8. Check source voltage. (All units are factory wired for 240 VAC). In order to use on 120 VAC, the internal factory wiring of the power center must be changed. (see Figure 11 and Figure 13).

3.8 Grounding and Bonding
A solid, copper # 8 awg (8.4 mm2) wire is recommended for connecting the control/power center to a permanent earth ground connection that is acceptable to the local inspection authority. Refer to your local codes for the acceptable grounding wire gauge. The National Electrical Code® (NEC®) requires pool equipment to be bonded to each other. Check your local codes to determine if the NEC and/or other local installation codes are enforced by the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). A solid, copper # 8 AWG (8.4 mm2) wire is recommended, per the NEC, for bonding the power pack to a permanent bonding connection that is acceptable to the local AHJ. Refer to your locally enforced codes for the acceptable bonding wire gauge. Attach the bonding point located on the bottom of the chassis backplate to a common earth bonding point. Do not use the power pack as the common bonding point. Each piece of non-related pool equipment requiring a ground should also be bonded to the common, approved earth bonding point. Never ground a pool pump to the chassis backplate.

3.9 Model Re-Configuration The Nature2 Fusion Soft power interface board is configured as a Nature2 Fusion Soft 1400 model by factory default.
IMPORTANT
If installing a Nature2 Fusion Soft 700 model the power interface board MUST be re-configured.

3.11 Connecting the Nature2 Fusion Soft Vessel and Flow/Temperature/Salinity Sensor

WARNING
ATTENTION INSTALLER: If the flow/temp/salinity sensor is not installed properly, it may allow the vessel to operate without water flow. This would cause a buildup of flammable gases resulting in FIRE or EXPLOSION. · Mount as shown in Figure 10. This will result in the most reliable operation. · IMPORTANT! Anytime the flow/temp/salinity sensor is connected or disconnected and reconnected,
the AC power to the unit must be turned off and back on (Cycle Power). If power is not cycled, unreliable operation of the flow/temp/salinity sensor will result.

1. Be sure pool pump is turned off.
2. Install the flow/temp/salinity sensor into the vessel (see Figure 10).
3. Install the strain relief provided with the vessel kit into the low voltage knock out at the power pack. Feed the connector end of the flow/temp/salinity sensor cable through the DC cord strain relief fitting. Be certain the connector is clean and dry, then plug the cable into the connector on the power center printed circuit board as shown in Figure 11, Figure 12 and Figure 13. (Do not pull flow/temp/salinity sensor cable too tight, allow some slack).
4. Plug the DC cord into the cell stud terminals protruding from the cell top at the Nature2 Fusion Soft vessel. The DC cord can be plugged into the cell in either direction.
5. Connect the DC cord to the power center. Feed the DC cord through the same strain relief fitting as the flow/ temp/salinity sensor at the power pack. Plug the DC cord into the two (2) spade connectors of the wiring harness located in the low voltage raceway of the control/power center, see Figure 11, Figure 12 and Figure 13. This wiring harness establishes the connection between the cell and the power interface board.

CAUTION
To avoid risk of damage to the equipment and possible injury, it is important to make sure the DC cable connector is fully seated on the cell electrolytic stud terminals.

3.13 Operation of External Control/ORP Control Board

An external device such as an ORP (Oxidation Reduction Potential) controller supplying 24 Volts AC can be used to control the output of the chlorinator. The chlorinator control board can be set up in the field to operate in two (2) different modes. The mode of operation is determined by the position of a movable jumper J14. See Figure 17 for location.

POS-1

Wait at least one (1) minute after applying power. See note 1.
With J14 jumper set to POS-1 and no voltage applied to the ORP 24 VAC connector J15, the chlorinator works normally displaying the production rate of 0% to 100% on the front of the power supply.

When 24 Volts AC is applied to the ORP 24 VAC inputs, chlorine production will be disabled. The front panel of the power supply will then flash “EC” (external control). Once the 24 Volts AC input is removed the chlorine generator will return to normal operation. The “EC” will be replaced with the current production setting of 0% to 100%.

Page 24

ENGLISH

Zodiac® Nature2® Fusion soft | Installation and Operation Manual

POS-2

Wait at least one (1) minute after applying power. See note 1.
Placing the jumper in POS-2 allows the chlorinator to operate in the opposite way to POS-1. With 24 Volts AC applied to the ORP 24 VAC inputs, chlorine production will be enabled. The front panel of the power supply will display a production rate of 0% to 100%. When the 24 Volts AC is removed the chlorine generator will flash “EC” every few seconds and chlorine production is disabled.

SUMMARY

POSITION OF J14 POS-1 (default) POS-2

24 VAC Unit OFF, displays EC Unit ON, displays 0-100%

0 VAC Unit ON, displays 0-100% Unit OFF, displays EC

Note 1 The unit samples the external control/ORP settings at the instant power is applied to the chlorinator and will not respond to any changes during the first minute of operation. The unit may appear to be STUCK IN or STUCK OUT of “EC” mode. Wait several minutes until the unit has warmed up to verify the changes made to external control set-up.

Note 2 Unlike the previous production models with ORP control, multiple chlorinators can be linked together to be controlled with one ORP controller without the use of external relays and transformers. Contact the factory for more information.

Chlorine Production 1.25 lbs / day (567 gm / day)
Residential Pools Up to 40,000 gallons (up to 151,000 litres) (See General Rule of Sizing notes below)

General Rule of Sizing: In areas with year-round use and high water temperatures, such as Florida, Texas, Arizona, Las Vegas and Southern California, the following must be considered:

Year Round Use: Up-sizing the Nature2 Fusion Soft device or adding more than one unit may be recommended for pools that are close to the maximum size and used year round. Please consult a qualified service representative.

High Water Temperatures: Because chlorine demand increases with the rise of water temperature, adjustments must be made in order to keep up with chlorine demand. In hot summer months, where the water temperature rises above 85ºF (30ºC), you must increase the pump run time and increase the chlorine production (%).

4.4 Chemistry You Need to Know
· Chlorine Stabilizer (cyanuric acid) is needed to maintain proper levels of chlorine. Most unstable chlorine is destroyed by the UV radiation from the sun within two (2) hours. Chlorine stabilizer should be maintained between 10 – 50 ppm. For indoor pools, it is not necessary to add chlorine stabilizer to the swimming pool water.
· Nitrates can cause extremely high chlorine demands and will deplete chlorine from your swimming pool. In some cases nitrates may even lower your chlorine levels to zero. Your local qualified service representative can test for nitrates. Make sure nitrates are not present in your pool.
· Metals (some metals) can cause loss of chlorine. Also, metals can stain your pool. Have your local qualified service representative check for metals and recommend methods of removal.
· Chloramines should not be present in pool water. When organic materials combine with free chlorine, chloramines are formed. This ties up the free chlorine in your pool and does not allow the chlorine in your pool to disinfect. Chloramines also cloud pool water and burn the eyes. Shock to remove chloramines at the initial startup of the pool.
· Super Chlorination burns out the organic material that has combined with chlorine. This frees the chlorine for sanitizing. When experiencing heavy swimming loads or heavy rainfall, use the Boost mode to maximize chlorine production.
· Shocking (Superoxidation) is also a means of burning out the organic material that has combined with chlorine. This method involves the manual addition of chemicals to quickly raise the level of chlorine. When the chlorine level is quickly raised to 5 – 15 ppm the pool water is said to have been shocked.

Page 26

ENGLISH

Zodiac® Nature2® Fusion soft | Installation and Operation Manual

NOTE On initial startup of a pool, it is best to shock using an alternate source, i.e., use a shock treatment available at your local pool supplier.

CAUTION
Never use dry acid to adjust pH in arid geographic areas with excessive evaporation and minimal dilution of pool water with fresh water. A buildup of by-products can damage the electrolytic cell.

· The pH condition resulting from the operation of the saltwater chlorination system is close to neutral. However, other factors usually cause the pH of the pool water to rise. Therefore, the pH in a pool chlorinated by a saltwater system tends to stabilize at approximately 7.6. If the pool pH rises above 7.6 have a qualified service representative test to see if other factors such as high calcium hardness or total alkalinity are the cause and then balance accordingly.
· Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) adding salt to pool water will raise the TDS level. While this does not adversely affect the pool water chemistry or clarity, the pool water professional testing for TDS must be made aware salt has been added for the sanitizing system. The individual performing the TDS test will then subtract the salinity level to arrive at the correct TDS level.
· New pool water in a recently filled or newly refinished pool may contain undesirable matter. This undesirable matter could interfere with the saltwater chlorinator’s ability to sanitize properly. Make sure the water is tested by a qualified service representative and properly balanced before turning on the chlorinator system. New plaster pools have a constant acid demand for six (6) months. Regular testing and correcting of the pH will reduce the need for manual cleaning of the cell.
· Sequestering Agents may be used in some areas where the total hardness of your source water may be unusually high. High total hardness can contribute to scale formation in the pool. Sequestering agents will help keep minerals in solution and under some conditions can prevent this from happening. Consult a qualified service representative about the use of a sequestering agent.

4.5 Optimum Pool Water Conditions

In accordance with Association of Pool and Spa Professionals® (APSP) standards, we recommend the following water balance conditions be maintained on an on-going basis to protect the pool finish and equipment and ensure the pleasing appearance of the water. The Nature2 Fusion Soft is warranted to operate properly only if these conditions are met.

Free Chlorine
Combined Chlorine (Chloramines) pH Chlorine Stabilizer (Cyanuric Acid) Total Alkalinity Calcium Hardness Metals (Iron, Manganese) Nitrates Phosphates

0.5 – 3.0 ppm. Continuous exposure to levels above 3.0 ppm may cause corrosion of pool metals. Refer to Section 6.2 for Chlorine Testing Procedure. None (Super chlorinate to remove all chloramines.) 7.4 – 7.6 (Use muriatic acid to lower pH and soda ash to raise pH.) 10 – 50 ppm (For outdoor pools only.) 80 – 120 ppm. 175 – 400 ppm. None. None. None.

4.6 Salt (NaCl Sodium Chloride)
4.6.1 When to Add Salt
Add salt to the pool if the salt is too low (see Table 1). For a new pool or newly resurfaced pool it is recommended to wait at least 30 days (surface should be completely cured) before adding salt. Follow the pool surface manufacturer’s guidelines for your particular pool. For vinyl and fiberglass pools, salt can be added at start up.

Zodiac® Nature2® Fusion soft | Installation and Operation Manual

ENGLISH

Page 27

4.6.2 What Type of Salt to Use
· The purer the salt the better the life and performance of the electrolytic cell. Use a salt that is at least 99.8% pure NaCl. The ideal salt is an evaporated, granulated, food quality, non-iodized salt. Consult your salt supplier.

· Avoid using salt with anti-caking agents (sodium ferrocyanide, also known as YPS or yellow prussiate of soda) that could cause some discoloration of fittings and surface finishes in pool.
· Water conditioning salt pellets are compressed forms of evaporated salt and may be used but will take longer to dissolve.

· Do not use calcium chloride as a source of salt. (Use sodium chloride only.)

· Do not use rock salt (insoluble impurities mixed with the rock salt can shorten the life of the unit).
4.6.3 How Much Salt to Use
Use Table 1 to determine how much salt will be needed. Most pools contain some salt depending on the water source and chemicals used for sanitizing. If the saltwater chlorinator has not been wired and turned on yet, a salt test strip or a hand held meter calibrated for NaCl (salt) can be used to determine the existing salt concentration of the water. If the unit is wired (connected), use it to determine the salinity. Water temperature can affect the salinity readout, always test salinity at the equipment locations.

Set chlorine production to 00%. Operating the unit above 00% production without salt will damage the electrolytic cell. The Salinity button C on the sanitizer user interface keypad can be used to determine salinity in the case of a new pool installation, or a complete water change so long as the chlorine production is set to 00%. See Section 5.4.2, step 2.
· 3,000 – 3,500 ppm of salt is recommended for optimum water conditions. · Low salt concentration below 2,000 ppm will cause premature cell failure. · High salt concentration above 4,000 ppm may damage the power center. · High salt concentration above 6,000 ppm may cause corrosion damage to pool fixtures.
NOTE Should too much salt be inadvertently added to the pool see Section 7, Troubleshooting.
4.6.4 How to Add Salt to the Pool? 1. Turn on pump to circulate pool water.

IMPORTANT Turn the chlorine production off by pressing the arrow button A and setting CHLORINE PRODUCTION rate to 00%.
2. Test the water for salinity level using test strips, electronic meter, or by your local qualified service representative.
3. Use the Table 1 to determine the amount of salt to add. Be conservative when adding salt as it is easier to add more if needed than it is to dilute if there is too much salt.
4. Broadcast salt into pool. Do not add through skimmer, main drain, or surge tank. Brush the salt around the pool to facilitate dissolving. Circulate filter system for 24 hours to ensure even distribution.
5. After 24 hours, verify correct salt reading.
6. Turn on the system and set to desired chlorine production rate (pressing the arrow buttons A or B).

NOTE For a new pool or newly resurfaced pool it is recommended to wait at least 30 days (surface should be completely cured) before adding salt. Follow the pool surface manufacturers guidelines for your particular pool. For vinyl and fiberglass pools, salt can be added at start up.

5.2 Reading the Display CELL ON
The CELL ON indicator shows that the cell has been turned on. Some reasons for the CELL ON indicator not being on during normal operation, are: CHLORINE PRODUCTION RATE set to 00%, CHLORINE PRODUCTION RATE set to less than 100% and CELL RESTING appears during cell rest period, NO FLOW condition, two (2)minutes before automatic cleaning cycle, low temperature cut off has been activated, or a service related problem such as a salinity level below 2.0 gpl or salinity level too high.
CELL RESTING During the normal chlorine production cycle when the unit is set for less than 100%, the cell will periodically rest; that is, the unit will not make chlorine. The CELL RESTING indicator shows that the cell has been turned off by the control power center.
FLOW or NO FLOW Indication
When the control/power center determines that water is flowing past the flow/temp/salinity sensor, the FLOW indicator is displayed. When no flow is detected, NO FLOW is displayed on the LCD and the cell is turned off. CELL REVERSING
The automatic cleaning cycle is in progress. The cleaning cycle is factory set and cannot be adjusted. Cell Reversing does not interrupt the production of chlorine.
SALINITY
Salinity is displayed along with the gpl (grams per liter) indicator, when the SALINITY button (C) is depressed. If a reading of HH appears, the salinity is above 4.5 to 6.5 gpl (depending on pool temperature) and is too high to measure correctly (at normal temperatures). Maintain salinity between 3.0 and 3.5 gpl. See Section 4.
ADD SALT
The ADD SALT indicator comes on when the flow/temp/salinity sensor determines that the salinity level of the pool water is too low. Maintain Salinity between 3.0 and 3.5 gpl.

SERVICE and Service Code The SERVICE indicator will turn on whenever the control system detects a problem that requires attention. The SERVICE indicator is accompanied by a service code displayed on the front panel, displayed as a three (3) digit code. The service code(s) are displayed twice per minute with an audible alarm.

NOTE See Section 7.2 Service Codes. Problems can range from insufficient salinity to the DC cord not connected.

Audible Alarm

An audible alarm (beep) sounds once per hour, and only for the first service code, when a SERVICE condition is detected. The alarm can be cleared by pressing and holding the SALINITY button (C) for five (5) seconds. The audible alarm can be cleared for 24 hours or until the power to the unit is turned off and back on whichever comes first. However, the audible alarm will return if a new problem is detected.

NOTE The audible alarm can be permanently disabled by removing the jumper from J2 on the control/power center power interface board

Audible Alarm Volume Control

Audible alarm operation and volume control can be adjusted. To adjust volume control, press and hold the TEMPERATURE button (D) for 15 seconds. The system will beep once when pressed, once after 10 seconds and once after 15 seconds. Release the key after the third beep. Press the SALINITY button (C) within five (5) seconds to enter the temperature change screen.

NOTE The boost cycle is normally activated after 10 seconds, however, if the key is held down until after the third beep at 15 seconds, the Boost mode will not be changed.

The system will display a 1′ followed byF’ or C’. Press the TEMPERATURE button (D) to move to the second parameter screen. The screen will display a 0, and the alarm volume will be fully reduced. The system will occasionally show a2′ to display the screen number. Press the arrow button B to increase the volume and the arrow button A to reduce the volume. The volume increments from 0 to 100 in 20 steps. After each press of the arrow buttons, the alarm will activate to demonstrate the current volume level. When the alarm volume has been adjusted to the desired setting, press the SALINITY button (C) to confirm the new alarm volume setting. The change will be stored in permanent memory. If you do not wish to keep the change, wait five (5) seconds, and the change screen will `time out’ and return to normal operation without keeping any changes to the system. Any changes made to the alarm volume will NOT be saved if this occurs.
5.3 Operation
CAUTION
Before attempting to operate the device, refer to Section 4, Pool Water Preparation. Also, do not adjust Chlorine production above 00% until it is certain that salt has been dissolved in pool. Operating without salt will damage the Electrolytic Cell.
Use of an external pool pump timer is not required with the saltwater chlorinator power/power pack. The chlorinator is designed to supply a sufficient amount of chlorine to sanitize pool water on a daily basis. If the system is operated for 24 hours a day at a 100% production rate, more chlorine would be generated than would be needed by most pools (0.5 – 3.0 ppm). The chlorinator control system has an internal timer which cycles the electrolytic cell on and off depending on what percent is set for the Chlorine Production Rate. For instance, at 100% the cell is on at all times while the pump is running. When the system is set at 90%, the cell will rest 10% of the time which helps prolong the cell life. In order to fine tune the chlorine production for any size pool just increase or decrease the Chlorine Production Rate from 00% to 100% until the chlorine level in the pool stabilizes between 0.5 – 3.0 ppm while the pump is running (see Section 5.4.3, “Apply Power” steps 1-5).
NOTE The chlorinating system only operates when the pump is running. During hot weather months you may need to increase pump run time to allow sufficient chlorine production.

Zodiac® Nature2® Fusion soft | Installation and Operation Manual

If you are connected to the AquaLink® RS control system or use a Pool Pump Timer. The Association of Pool & Spa Professionals® (APSP) recommends that all water in a residential pool pass through the filtration system at least once every 12 hours (referred to as pool water turnover). However, many factors have an effect on actual pump and filter system run times. Pool size, source of water, direct sun light, indoor/outdoor, screened/unscreened, filtration system, cold or hot weather, swimmer load, rain, organic debris, algae, etc., are all factors which contribute to either more or less pool pump and filter system run times. Because of these differences, it is extremely difficult to set an initial run time (starting point) for the pool pump and chlorinating system.

Try initially setting the pool pump run-time to 12 hours per day. It will take a few days to get just the right pool pump operating time. Adjust accordingly using the steps listed in Section 5.4.3, “Apply Power” steps 1-5. When the Nature2 Fusion Soft is wired with a pool pump timer the results will vary greatly from one pool installation to the next, so this should be discussed with either the pool builder or the local qualified service representative.

The key points are:

· Check Chlorine Level on a regular basis and adjust the chlorine production rate (%) accordingly.
· Operate pool pump at least the minimum time needed for good filtration. · The Pool Pump Timer reduces energy consumption. NOTE Chlorine Production can be adjusted in 5% increments at the User Interface or through the AquaLink RS
control system.

NOTE Exception – For Cold Weather Operation: If the saltwater chlorinator is set to run 24 hours a day through the winter, extremely cold water temperatures can contribute to a reduction in the operating life of the electrolytic cell. Sometimes it will be necessary to run the chlorinator at a very low production rate (10 – 20%) or to turn the unit off. See Section 6.7, Winterizing.

5.4 Startup 5.4.1 Start-Up Cartridge Procedure 1. Install the cartridge after the water has been balanced.
2. With the circulation system OFF, remove the collar from the Nature2 side of the system. If this is a newly installed system, remove and store the temporary plug supplied with the unit.
3. Insert the Nature2 start-up cartridge and replace the collar and hand tighten.
4. Turn on pool circulation system.
5. For newly filled pools, replace after 30 days with Nature2 mineral cartridge [seven (7) days for other pools]. See Section 4.3.
5.4.2 Shocking Shock (superoxidation) the pool water from an alternate source at the time of pool startup to burn off contaminates. During normal operating conditions the chlorinator is capable of generating a sufficient level of chlorine for sanitation within several hours. However, if the pool water has a high chlorine demand due to startup conditions then the chlorinator will not be able to produce enough chlorine to reach break-point chlorination. Shocking involves the manual addition of chemicals to quickly raise the level of chlorine. When the chlorine level is quickly raised to 5 – 15 ppm the pool water is said to have been shocked Wait until the chlorine level has returned to 0.5 – 3.0 ppm before turning on the saltwater chlorinating system.

Zodiac® Nature2® Fusion soft | Installation and Operation Manual

5.4.3 Apply Power
1. Turn on the pool pump. When the chlorinator is first turned on (cold), the unit will beep. Next it will selfcalibrate the flow/temp/salinity sensor. After going through an internal test and calibration, the LCD will display the current setting for chlorine production (00% to 100%). During the calibration period “Wait” will appear. “Wait” means the unit is self calibrating and doing internal testing. This process usually takes less than six (6) minutes.

2. Check salinity level by pressing the SALINITY button (C). It should read between 3.0 gpl and 3.5 gpl. If it does not, then press the SALINITY button (C) two (2) or three (3) more times until the salinity reading stabilizes.

NOTE If still less than 3.0 gpl refer to Tables 1 and 2 and adjust salt concentration level. (Maintain the Recommended Salinity Level of 3.0 to 3.5 gpl). If salinity is below 2.0 gpl the system will automatically turn the electrolytic cell off until the salinity is raised above 2.0 gpl. Operating with a low salt concentration will damage the electrolytic cell. Likewise, if salinity is above the range of measurement the system will automatically turn the electrolytic cell off until the salinity is lowered to a measurable level. Operating with high salt will damage the power center. If salinity is greater than 3.5 gpl, see Section 7, Troubleshooting.
3. Adjust the chlorine production to 50% by pressing the arrow buttons (A) or (B).
4. After 24 hours, use a reliable test kit to measure the pool water for free active chlorine. The ideal range to maintain is 1 – 3 ppm. If the chlorine content of the pool water is too low, increase chlorine production by pressing the up arrow button (B). If the chlorine content of the water is too high, decrease chlorine production by pressing the down arrow button (A). Adjust in 10% increments initially then in smaller increments (5%) as the correct chlorine level is approached.
5. Due to a varying chlorine demand of pool water, it may take a few days to determine the correct pool pump operating time and chlorine production percentage setting for your pool. Continue adjusting as necessary, allowing 24 hours between adjustments until the chlorine content of the pool water has stabilized at 1 – 3 ppm.

5.5 Operating in Winter See Section 6.7, Winterizing.

5.6 Recommendations · DO List
· Read and keep your manual in a safe place. · Replace the start-up cartridge within 30 days and again every six (6) months. · Increase chlorine production rate before a large number of bathers enter the pool and return to normal afterwards. · Increase chlorine production rate when temperature goes up. · Increase chlorine production rate when the number of bathers goes up. · For outdoor pools only, use stabilizer (cyanuric acid) to stabilize chlorine in pool. · Mount power center in shade or out of the direct sunlight whenever possible. · Decrease production rate when temperature goes down (for example, in the Fall and Winter seasons). · Take pool water sample to a qualified service representative once per month.

Zodiac® Nature2® Fusion soft | Installation and Operation Manual

Page 35

· DON’T List

· Do not get fertilizer in your pool. Fertilizers contain nitrates which cause a high chlorine demand on pool water.

· Never use dry acid to adjust pH in arid geographic areas with excessive evaporation and minimal dilution of pool water with fresh water. A build up of by products can damage the electrolytic cell.

· Do not add chemicals or salt to the pool unless the chlorinator is turned off.

· For outdoor pools only, do not let chlorine stabilizer (cyanuric acid) drop below 10 ppm.

· Do not add salt without first checking the pool salinity level. Too much salt can disable and possibly damage the chlorinator.

Section 6. User Maintenance Instructions
The following information describes how to care for your sanitizing system.
IMPORTANT Always test the chlorine levels of your pool before each use.
6.1 Daily 1. Filtration and Circulation. Follow the manufacturer’s directions for keeping the circulating pump
in good working order and operate it at least six (6) hours a day. Consult your Nature2 dealer for optimum run times. Check pool filter periodically, clean as recommended by manufacturer.
6.2 Weekly 1. Chlorine Test. Maintain ideal range by adjusting the Nature2 Fusion Soft chlorine production rate using Section
5.4, Startup. Recommended Free Chlorine is 0.5 – 1 ppm.
Use a home test kit or ask your qualified service representative to test your water. It is recommended that chlorine test samples be taken from two (2) places, described below. Compare the two (2) samples. A higher level should be found at the pool return line. The higher level at the pool return line indicates the saltwater chlorinator system is producing chlorine.
a. At the pool return line. b. 18″ (46 cm) below the surface and well away from the pool return line.
2. pH Level Test. Test the pH level of your pool with a test kit. If necessary, adjust according to your qualified service representative’s recommendations. APSP standard of 7.4 – 7.6 is recommended.
CAUTION
Never use dry acid to adjust pH in arid geographic areas with excessive evaporation and minimal dilution of pool water with fresh water. A build up of by products can damage the electrolytic cell.
6.3 Monthly 1. Salt Level Test. Test pool water salt level by depressing the Salinity button C and reading the LCD located on
the DuoLink® power centre user interface. Maintain the ideal range of 3.0 – 3.5 gpl for optimum performance. If additional salt is required, follow the procedures and charts described in Section 4. If salt level does not rise after 24 hours, see Section 7, Troubleshooting.
2. Pool Water Sample. Take water sample to local pool store for testing.
3. Total Alkalinity Test. Test pool water for total alkalinity with a test kit. Adjust according to your qualified service representative’s recommendations. 80 – 120 ppm APSP Standard.

Zodiac® Nature2® Fusion soft | Installation and Operation Manual

4. Stabilizer (Cyanuric Acid). Test pool water stabilizer (cyanuric acid) level using a test kit or by having a water sample tested by a qualified service representative. Maintain ideal range of 10 – 50 ppm. Follow your qualified service representative’s recommendations. Stabilizer is not necessary for indoor pool use.

5. Calcium Hardness. Test pool water for calcium hardness level using test kit or by having a water sample tested by a qualified service representative. If necessary, adjust according to your qualified service representative’s recommendations. APSP standard of 150 – 400 ppm is recommended.

6. 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 the local qualified service representative.

6.4 Every Six (6) Months (Or once every pool season whichever is shorter) 6.4.1 Nature2 Mineral Cartridge Replacement The Nature2 cartridge for the Nature2 Soft Fusion lasts six (6) months or one pool season (whichever is the shorter length of time). 1. Shut off the pool pump and filter. 2. Close valves between filter and pool to prevent pool draining. 3. Turn large collar counterclockwise to remove and lift off cap.
4. Remove old cartridge and discard in household trash. Insert the new cartridge (see Section 4.3) 5. Position cap flat on the vessel housing.
IMPORTANT Make sure the o-ring is secure in the groove on the vessel top, not on the underside of the cap. Turn large collar clockwise until it locks into place, do not over tighten.
6. Open any valves that were closed to isolate the Nature2 Fusion.

6.5 Electrolytic Cell Cleaning – As Needed Depending upon water chemistry, occasional manual cell cleaning may be necessary.
1. Switch off the filter pump and chlorinator, close necessary valves.
WARNING
Always turn pump off prior to installing or removing any components from the pool’s plumbing. Your pump/filter system is operated under pressure and pressure must be released before you begin to avoid system damage, serious personal injury, or death. Open the air relief valve on your pool filter to release the pressure in the system. Be sure to follow the pool filter manufacturer’s instructions to ensure this is done properly.
2. Unplug the yellow connector from the vessel. 3. Unscrew the electrolytic cell retaining ring and remove the electrolytic cell. 4. Look down into the electrolytic cell to see if there is scale on the plates.
WARNING
To avoid personal injury when working with pool chemicals, always wear rubber gloves and eye protection, cover exposed skin, and work in a well ventilated area. Use caution when choosing a location to open and use chemicals as they may damage any surface into which they come in contact. If any chemical gets on your skin, rinse the area immediately with water. If any chemical gets on your clothing, immediately remove the piece of clothing and rinse with water.

5. Mix cleaning solution in a suitable plastic container by adding one (1) part of hydrochloric (muriatic) acid to ten (10) parts water. Note: To avoid splash, always ADD MURIATIC ACID TO WATER rather than water to muriatic acid. Solutions stronger than 1:10 will damage the electrolytic cell and void warranty. Submerge only the plates of the electrolytic cell in the cleaning solution. See Figure 19. Allow the cleaning solution to dissolve the calcium deposits for approximately five (5) minutes.
6. Repeat the procedure if necessary. Take care to avoid splashing the electrolytic cell terminals and other equipment with the acidic cleaning solution. Wash down any spills with plenty of fresh water. To neutralize acid cleaning solution, add baking soda (foaming will occur).
7. Rinse the electrolytic cell in clean water and reinstall into the vessel. Ensure the O-ring is seated properly and coated lightly with silicone lubricant. Hand tighten collar.

IMPORTANT Make sure the O-ring is secure in the groove on the vessel top, not on the underside of the cap. Also verify that the O-ring faces the same direction as Figure 20 callout when installing.
8. Replace the yellow plug after drying and smearing lightly with silicone grease. 9. Reset valves and switches. Turn pump and sanitizer on. 10. Confirm chlorine output and settings on the user interface.

O-Ring

During electrolytic cell cleaning, only immerse this portion of the electrode.
*See note in step 7

6.6 Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor Cleaning
One (1) time per year or as needed. It is rare but scale formations on the flow/ temp/salinity sensor sometimes occur and will affect the accuracy of the salinity test.
1. Remove flow/temp/salinity sensor from the vessel.
2. Brush with a mildly abrasive green fiber household cleaning pad. Contacts should be clean and bright.
3. Thoroughly rinse the flow/temp/ salinity sensor with clean tap water. Replace and resume normal operation.
4. Turn power off and back on in order to recalibrate and reset flow/temp/salinity sensor. Reset anytime flow/temp/salinity sensor is unplugged.

6.7 Winterizing

Very little chlorine is needed in cold water.

Figure 20. Electrolytic Cell Cleaning

Below 51°F (11°C), chlorine production is not permitted; operating the chlorinator in

cold water might result in over-chlorinated

pool water. If more chlorine is needed, activating the “Boost” mode will override this cold water feature allowing

chlorine production for 24 hours of operation. See Section 5.1, User Interface Controls.

Page 38

ENGLISH

Zodiac® Nature2® Fusion soft | Installation and Operation Manual

If preventative measures are not taken, freezing water may cause severe damage to the cell and flow/temp/salinity sensor. Prevent freeze damage to the cell and flow/temp/salinity sensor by running pump continuously or winterize pool by draining water from pump, filter, and all intake and return lines. Remove the cell, clean and store it. Disconnect the flow/temp/salinity sensor from the power center, then remove it from the vessel. Wrap flow/temp/ salinity sensor in a plastic bag or protective covering and coil flow/temp/salinity sensor and DC power cord cables around the power center for storage.

An optional Spool Piece (sold separately) is available to replace the vessel during winterizing or vessel maintenance. This will enable pool pump to circulate water with the vessel out the of line.

When a FREEZE CONTROLLER is used on pump equipment and the chlorinator is run through the winter, turn the CHLORINE PRODUCTION down to 10 – 20%. Otherwise, chlorine production will exceed the recommended level of 1.0 – 3.0 ppm.

NOTE A chlorine level above 3.0 ppm may cause corrosion of pool metals and possibly cause damage to associated pool equipment.

Section 7. Troubleshooting
NOTE Turn off power to unit prior to attempting service or repair.

pies (1,52 m), de un spa o jacuzzi. · El uso de alcohol, drogas o medicamentos pueden aumentar el riesgo de hipertermia fatal en jacuzzi
y spas.
ADVERTENCIA
La inmersión prolongada en agua caliente puede provocar hipertermia. La hipertermia ocurre cuando la temperatura interna del cuerpo alcanza un nivel de varios grados por encima de la temperatura normal del cuerpo de 98,6 ° F (37 ° C). Los síntomas de hipertermia incluyen mareo, vértigo, somnolencia, letargo, y un aumento de la temperatura interna del cuerpo. Los efectos de la hipertermia incluyen: · Desconocimiento de un peligro inminente · Falta de percibir el calor · Si no se reconoce la necesidad de salir del spa · Incapacidad física para salir del spa · Daño fetal en mujeres embarazadas · Pérdida del conocimiento que resulta en un peligro de ahogarse · El uso de alcohol, drogas o medicamentos pueden aumentar el riesgo de hipertermia fatal.
PRECAUCION
Es importante señalar que ciertos materiales utilizados en y alrededor de piscinas y spas pueden no ser compatibles con los productos químicos utilizados para purificar el agua del spa y la piscina (por ejemplo, ácidos, cloro, sal, estabilizadores, etc.) Como tal, Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc. no garantiza que el agua clorada generados por Nature2 Fusion puedan dañar o destruir ciertos tipos de plantas, cubiertas, afrontamiento y otros materiales dentro y en los alrededores de su piscina o spa. Antes de seleccionar los materiales a ser utilizados en y
alrededor de su piscina y/o spa, favor de discutir todas las opciones con su contratista para evaluar la compatibilidad de dichos materiales y productos químicos. · Algunas consideraciones útiles: · Elección de las plantas que pueden resistir salpicaduras de agua de la piscina con cloro y/o de la sal
y otros productos químicos de purificación de agua. · Todos los componentes de metal utilizados en y alrededor de una piscina deben ser de alto grado,
acero inoxidable de calidad. · Seleccione cuidadosamente de los productos de albañilería. La porosidad y la dureza de la piedra
natural es muy variable. Por lo tanto, le recomendamos que consulte con su constructor o contratista en la mejor opción para los materiales de piedra alrededor de su piscina o spa. · Sellado de todos los productos de albañilería. Los profesionales de la industria de la piedra especifican que incluso la piedra natural, especialmente cuando se usa al aire libre, deben estar sellados para evitar la erosión, la coloración, y la degradación prematura. Consulte con su contratista de cubierta o de piedra para aislar adecuadamente los productos de albañilería que ha seleccionado usar alrededor de su piscina o spa. · Para resultados óptimos, selladores deben reaplicarse regularmente. Reaplique el sellador de protección de acuerdo a las instrucciones del fabricante.

2.1 Descripción del producto
El Nature2 Fusion Soft es un todo-en-uno, el sistema de sanidad, que incluye saneamiento de minerales y las tecnologías de la cloración de agua salada en una misma carcasa, que se puede interconectar con un sistema centralizado de control de piscina.
El Nature2 Fusion Soft utiliza un enfoque dual para limpiar el agua de la piscina. El primer proceso es la tecnología de Nature2 Zodiac® que entrega controlada de pequeñas cantidades de minerales beneficiosos para ayudar a reducir las bacterias y mantener la piscina libre de algas. El cartucho de minerales reduce la cantidad de cloro de la piscina requiere, lo que mejora drásticamente la calidad del agua y extiende la vida de la celda electrolítica. El segundo proceso es conocido como la electrólisis que produce el cloro de una baja concentración de sal en el agua de la piscina. El cloro mata las bacterias, oxida la materia orgánica, y mata a las algas y luego se vuelve sal. El Nature2 Fusion Soft vuelve a utilizar la sal para repetir el proceso nuevamente.
2.2 Componentes del Nature2 Fusion Soft El sistema Fusion Nature2 Soft se compone de los siguientes componentes: Nature2 FUSIONM (para sistemas autónomos, se vende por separado)
· La fuente de alimentación Nature2 FUSIONM convierte la corriente alterna en corriente baja tensión que se requiere por la celda para realizar el electrólisis.
· La pantalla LCD ofrece una monitorización de la producción de cloro, modalidad de la celda, el nivel de salinidad, temperatura, flujo de agua y de diagnóstico.
· La fuente de alimentación está conectada con la circulación de la bomba de la piscina de origen eléctrico, de manera que la celda electrolítica sólo puede funcionar cuando la bomba de la piscina está encendido. La porción de flujo del sensor de flujo/temperatura/salinidad es un dispositivo de reserva de seguridad solamente.

Centro de control AquaLink® RS PureLinkTM (para sistema centralizado de control de la piscina, se vende por separado)
· El sistema de PureLink es un todo-en-uno sistema de centro de control de cloración de agua salada para uso con AquaLink RS PDA, All Button, cubierta, o controladores de OneTouchTM.
· El centro de control PureLink convierte la corriente alterna de baja tensión de corriente que se requiere para que la celda realize la electrólisis.
· La electrónica de generador de cloro están conectados con la electrónica de la bomba de la piscina, de manera que la celda electrolítica funciona solamente cuando la bomba de la piscina está encendida. La porción de flujo de la corriente del sensor de flujo/tempsalinidad es un dispositivo de reserva de seguridad solamente.
Desinfección del vaso del Nature2 Fusion
· La desinfección del vaso utiliza una combinación de una celda electrolítica y un cartucho de minerales. La celda electrolítica contiene electrodos bipolares que realizan la electrólisis y la producción de cloro cuando se activa con corriente continua. El cloro se genera como agua de la piscina con sal que pasa a través de la celda. La producción de cloro puede ser modificada al ajustar el nivel de producción de cloro en el centro de control o por la variación del número de horas que el Nature2 Fusion Soft está activo cada día. El Nature2 Fusion Soft limpia automáticamente los electrodos una vez cada tres (3) horas por inversión de polaridad. Esto no interrumpe la producción de cloro. El cartucho de minerales produce una pequeña y controlada cantidad de plata y cobre que funciona en conjunto con el cloro para mantener una piscina libre de algas.
Sensor de flujo/temp/salinidad · La porción de flujo de la corriente sensor de flujo/temp/salinidad ayuda a detectar si hay un flujo adecuado de agua a través de el vaso. · La porción de la salinidad del flujo el sensor de flujo/temp/salinidad detecta el nivel de sal en el agua de la piscina. Este nivel de sal se muestra en gramos por litro (GPL) * en la pantalla de cristal líquido (LCD), cada vez que se pulsa el botón de la salinidad. Esto elimina la necesidad de manual de pruebas de la salinidad del agua de la piscina.
· Temperatura de la piscina se muestra pulsando el botón de temperatura.

  • 1 gramo por litro (GPL) = 1000 ppm (partes por millón)
