ACID.
CAUTION
Use of chemicals other than those recommended may be hazardous. Even proper
use of the recommended chemicals can be hazardous. Follow the Chemical
Manufacturer’s Instructions.
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of electric shock, install iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator a
minimum of 1.5m away from the inside wall of the pool. Install the unit a
minimum of 1m away from the heater outlet.
CAUTION
A solid copper bonding conductor, not smaller than No. 8AWG (8.4mm) should
be connected from the accessible wire connector on the unit to all metal parts
of the swimming pool, spa or hot tub infrastructure and to all electrical
equip-ment, metal conduit, and metal piping within 1.5m. of the inside walls
of a swimming pool, spa or hot tub, when the unit is installed within 1.5m. of
the inside walls of the swimming pool, spa or hot tub.
WARNING
Salt is an inherently corrosive material. While the levels of salt, required for proper operation of the iCHLOR™ Salt Chlorinator, are relatively low when compared to seawater and other salt solutions, placing any amount of salt in your pool increases the likelihood of corrosion or other deterioration of pool equipment and any surfaces used in and around your pool. Metal parts (including metal pools) and certain natural and man-made surfaces are particularly susceptible to corrosion and deterioration when used in and around salt water pools. Pentair Aquatic Systems (“Pentair”) does not represent or otherwise guarantee that the proper use of the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator will prevent corrosion or other deterioration of pool equipment and any surfaces used in and around your pool. Consult your experienced pool professional, who should be able to advise you on the proper material selection, installation techniques for those materials, and the proper use, care and maintenance of those materials for your specific pool type and location in order to minimize the corrosion and deterioration that is inherent in and around salt water pools.
Limited Warranty Terms & Conditions
Before installing your iCHLOR, review and understand all warnings, safety and
warranty information in this guide. Failure to follow these instructions or
improper installation of the cleaner can result in damage to the pool finish
or the vinyl liner, Pentair Aquatic Systems disclaims any liability for

Disclaimer of Liability – About your Pool and equipment
There are a multitude of factors that contribute to the life of your pool.
Please be aware that over time, deterioration, discoloration and brittleness
of any pool finish can be caused separately by, or in combination with, age,
an imbalance in pool water chemistry, improper installation and other factors.
The same situation holds true for vinyl-lined in-ground swimming pools,
because vinyl liners are also affected by the environment and factors such as
pool water chemistry, sunlight and the pool’s surroundings. Therefore over
time, vinyl can become brittle and weak. In addition, vinyl-lined pools are
affected by the workmanship, composition and installation of the liner and the
workmanship and quality of construction of the supporting walls and pool base.
These are all factors which can contribute to liner failure. The manufacturer
disclaims any liability for repairs or replacement to any of these structures
or components of the customer’s pool. The pool owner must assume all
responsibility for the condition and maintenance of the pool’s surface, water
and deck.

iCHLOR™ Salt Chlorinator OVERVIEW
The iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator uses a process known as electrolysis to produce chlorine gas which immediately dissolves into a solution to create Hypochlorite and Hypochlorous acid pool and spa water sanitizer from a low concentration of salt added to the pool water. Hypochlorite and Hypochlorous kill bacteria, oxidizes organic material, and kills algae, then reverts back to salt. The iCHLOR then reuses the salt and the process starts over again. The iCHLOR system is comprised of Cell and Power Center.
CAUTION
The iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator is designed only to produce chlorine. The unit
does not monitor or control chlorine levels in the pool or spa water. It is
the pool owner’s responsibility for monitoring and maintaining free chlorine
levels at the APSP recommended range of 2.0 to 4.0 parts per million (ppm). It
is the pool owner’s responsibility to check, on a regular basis, the free
chlorine level while the pool pump is running, and adjust the iCHLOR
accordingly.
CAUTION
Salt is an inherently corrosive material. While the levels of salt required
for proper operation of the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator are relatively low when
compared to sea water and other salt solutions, placing any amount of salt in
your pool increases the likelihood of corrosion or other deterioration of pool
equipment and any surfaces used in and around your pool. Metal parts
(including steel pools) and certain natural and man-made surfaces are
particularly susceptible to corrosion and deterioration when used in and
around salt water pools. Pentair Aquat-ic Systems (“Pentair”) does not
represent or otherwise guarantee that the proper use of the iCHLOR Salt
Chlorinator will prevent corrosion or other deterioration of pool equipment
and any surfaces used in and around your pool. Con-sult your experienced pool
professional, who should be able to advise you on the proper material
selection, installa-tion techniques for those materials, and the proper use,
care and maintenance of those materials for your specific pool type and
location in order to minimize the corrosion and deterioration that is inherent
in and around salt water pools.
CAUTION
FOR ALL NEWLY CONSTRUCTED OR RESURFACED PLASTER POOLS: Do not operate the
iCHLOR with newly poured or resurfaced pool plaster. Salt is a corrosive
element and severe salt damage can occur to your pool. Wait at least ONE (1)
MONTH after construction to allow plaster to cure before adding salt and
operating iCHLOR. Follow the pool surface manufacturer’s guidelines for your
specific pool. FOR NEW VINYL LINER POOLS, contact the manufacturer for
recommended guidelines before adding salt and operating the iCHLOR.
iCHLOR System Components
An iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator system consists of one or more of the following ;
- KR30 Cell : Designed for pools up to 75.000liters. the cell will produce the equivalent of 0.45Kg of pure chlorine per 24hours of continuous pool pump run time.
- KPC 250 : Power Center. Provides power to the iCHLOR cell.
iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator Control Panel and Cell Description
The iCHLOR includes a control panel with buttons and LED indicators to control the unit and produce chlorine. The iCHLOR measures the water temperature and salt level to produce chlorine at the defined output. If the salt level in the pool water is too low (red on salt display), the cell is turned off until salt is added to the pool. The controller has a self-cleaning cycle which reverses the cell polarity, reducing calcium buildup. This feature turns the cell on and off at regular intervals to minimize calcium and scale buildup and further maximizes cell life. The iCHLOR contains the control electronics and bipolar electrodes that electrically 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 sanitizer output level on the control panel and/or by varying the number of hours the unit is on each day. The iCHLOR automatically reverses the cell electrode blades every few hours to help clean the cell. This process does not interrupt the production of Chlorine. The iCHLOR also contains a mechanical flow sensor to ensure the proper amount of water is passing through the cell to allow chlorination to occur. The iCHLOR automatically measures the water salinity and temperature and displays three (3) salinity ranges on the control panel using LED indicators. The KECG includes a 3m. cable for connection to the Power Center.
- Flow Sensor: A flow sensor assures that there will always be adequate water flow through the iCHLOR. If the iCHLOR is not properly plumbed and/or does not receive adequate water flow, no chlorine will be produced.
- Temperature Sensor: To protect the iCHLOR from operation and potential damage when the temperature of the pool water falls below 11° C, ±1.67° C, the temperature sensor switches the cell off, illuminates the COLD WATER light and no chlorine will be produced.
- Salt Sensor: Two (2) salt sensor probes in the iCHLOR are activated each time the iCHLOR is switched on and again during every 12 hours of continuous running. At each of those times, the salt level LED indicator lights flash in a scrolling sequence for two (2) minutes to indicate that the iCHLOR is in analysis mode. After two (2) minutes, the LED indicators lights will signal one (1) of three (4) salinity ranges. For more information, see “Salt Level Status LEDs”.
Note: The salt sensor reading is within +/- 500 ppm accuracy.
KREEPY KLOR Power Center
The power supply is connected with the pool circulation pump electrical source
so that the iCHLOR only operates when the pool pump is on. The Power Center
should be mounted vertically on the wall up to three (3) meter away from the
cell. The Power Center contains the transformer, fuse, and connector to the
cell. A fuse holder is mounted on the bottom of the Power Center for
additional protection. There are no other controls or lights on the Power
Center. For information about installing and proper use of the Power Center,
see the “iCHLOR Power Center Installation Guide” .
Loop Plumbing Diagram
The iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator is designed to operate with water flow rates from 5.7 m³/h to not exceed 24 m³/h. For flow rates over 18 m³/h minute you must use a bypass loop (as shown below) for best chlorine production. Installations with flow rates over 18m³/h include those that have in-floor cleaning systems or booster pumps. These systems MUST use a bypass loop with the iCHLOR with a flow control valve that assures that the flow through the iCHLOR is maintained within its designed operating water flow rates.
iCHLOR Plumbing Diagram
Plumbing the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator:
- Always install the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator AFTER the filter and heater. The iCHLOR should be no closer than 1m away from the heater outlet.
- If the iCHLOR is installed on a pool/spa combination system, install (see diagram below) the iCHLOR BEFORE the pool/spa return valve to allow proper chlorination of both the pool and spa and also to avoid creating gas traps in the pipes.
SALT STATUS LED INDICATORS
The iCHLOR salt level checks the pool water daily and displays the levels as follows:
- GREEN LED: Good Salt. The pool water salt level is between 2800ppm and 4500ppm, and the iCHLOR is producing chlorine. iCHLOR salt LED should always be showing GREEN level for optimum results. Ideal salt level is 3400ppm.
- GREEN LED (FLASHING): Salt level is above 4500ppm. Chlorine is being produced but the salt level is too high which increases the risk of corrosion and deterioration of pool equipment and surfaces in and around the pool. Pool water needs to be drained and refilled 300 mm at a time until the salt level is below 4500ppm.
- RED LED: Low salt. The water salt level is below 2800ppm. The iCHLOR will be producing chlorine at a reduced efficiency. It is recommended to add salt (*)
- FLASHING RED LED: Very low salt. The water salt level has dropped below 2600ppm. The iCHLOR will not produce chlorine until salt is added. The iCHLOR is off. ()
() After every salt addition, pump should run for at least 24 hours for proper dilution. Salinity readings should only be taken after the 24 hour dilution period.
STATUS LED INDICATORS
CELL: SHOWS THE STATUS OF THE iCHLOR
- GREEN FLASHING: The iCHLOR needs to be inspected. The blades may be calcified. The iCHLOR will not be producing chlorine. GREEN: iCHLOR is performing good and producing chlorine
- NO LIGHT: The iCHLOR is off and not producing chlorine. It may be in an off cycle of the sanitizing process and will return on in due course.
- RED: The iCHLOR is in “Standby” mode (system off, no chlorine generation) due to cold weather condition. The iCHLOR will resume chlorine production once the water temperature goes above 11 ° C.
- FLOW: THIS LIGHT INDICATES THE STATUS OF THE WATER FLOWING THROUGH THE iCHLOR
- RED: Insufficient water flow through the iCHLOR, no chlorine is being produced.
- GREEN: Sufficient water flowing through the iCHLOR, chlorine is being produced.
OUTPUT LED INDICATORS
The three (3) LED indicators display as a bar graph to show in increments, the percentage of time the chlorine is produced per hour of pump run time. In BOOST mode, these LEDs blink from bottom to top.
Note: If no LEDs are lit, the output is set to 0% and the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator is not producing chlorine.
- 0% 0 LED lit – No chlorine produced – iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator is off.
- 33.3% 1 LED lit – Produces chlorine 33% of each hour of pump run time.
- 66.6% 2 LED lit – Produces chlorine 66% of each hour of pump run time.
- 100% 3 LED lit – Produces chlorine 100% of each hour of pump run time.
More and Less Output Buttons
The More and Less buttons control the percentage of time of each hour that the
iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator is producing chlorine while the pump is on (see
Sanitizer Output LED indicators above). The lights act as a bar graph: the
more lights that are on, the more chlorine is produced. Flip the panel cover
up to access the More, Less and Boost On/Off buttons. To exit Boost mode,
press and hold both the buttons.
More: Increases the time the cell produces chlorine.
Less: Decreases the time the cell produces chlorine.
Boost On/Off: Press and hold both the More and Less buttons together to activate Boost mode on or off. Boost mode sets the sanitizer output to run 100% for the next 24 hours of pool pump run time. If the time clock switches off the pump cycle, then switches power back on the next day, Boost mode will continue until 24 hours has elapsed since Boost mode was turned on or Boost mode is canceled by the user. The Sanitizer Output display will show a pattern LED display to indicate Boost mode.
Self-Cleaning
The self-cleaning feature reduces scale buildup on the blades of the iCHLOR.
The self-cleaning cycle tends to reduce the life of the iCHLOR, therefore, it
should be used only to the extent necessary to minimize the scale buildup on
the blades. The self-cleaning cycle can be adjusted to run every 3, 4, or 5
hours, whichever is the optimal for your particular pool conditions in order
to minimize scale buildup but maximize the life of the iCHLOR. It is factory
set to two (2) hours for the first 30 days of operation, then automatically
switches to three (3) hours. To change the self-cleaning cycle, press and hold
the LESS button for three (3) seconds. The sanitizer output display will show
the number of hours in a bar graph style. The number of output LEDs lit is the
number of reverse hours. Pressing More or Less button will change this
setting.
Pool Water Chemistry, Conditions and Precautions
This section describes the startup procedure and operating instructions for iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator.
Pool Water Chemistry, Conditions and Precautions
-
New Pool Water: A recently filled or newly-refinished pool may contain undesirable matter. This undesirable matter could interfere with iCHLOR’s ability to chlorinate properly. Make sure the water is tested by a pool professional and properly balanced before switching on the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator.
WARNING
Salt is an inherently corrosive material. While the levels of salt required for proper operation of the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator are relatively low when compared to sea water and other salt solutions, placing any amount of salt in your pool increases the likelihood of corrosion or other deterioration of pool equipment and any surfaces used in and around your pool. Metal parts (including steel pools) and certain natural and man-made surfaces are particularly susceptible to corrosion and deterioration when used in and around salt water pools. Pentair Aquatic Systems (“Pentair”) does not represent or otherwise guarantee that the proper use of the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator will prevent corrosion or other deterioration of pool equipment and any surfaces used in and around your pool. Consult your experienced pool professional, who should be able to advise you on the proper material selection, installation techniques for those materials, and the proper use, care and maintenance of those materials for your specific pool type and location in order to minimize the corrosion and deterioration that is inherent in and around salt water pools. -
Super Chlorination burns out the swimmer waste that has combined with chlorine. This frees the chlorine for sanitizing. This is accomplished by raising the chlorine level quickly and dramatically. When the chlorine level is raised to ten (10) times the amount of combined chlorine (usually 5 to 10 ppm) the pool water is said to have been super chlorinated. As pool water is continuously passed through the iCHLOR while the unit is powered on, all pool water inside the iCHLOR is being super chlorinated. When the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator is used on pools, the pool water sparkles and does not burn the eyes because of the absence of chloramines.
Note: On initial start-up of a pool, it is best to super chlorinate using an outside source, i.e., use a shock treatment available at your local pool supplier. -
Chloramines should not be present in pool water. Chloramines are formed when ammonia (which is found in urine and sweat) combine with free chlorine. This ties up the free chlorine in your pool and does not allow the chlorine in your pool to disinfect. Chloramines also burn the eyes and are foul smelling. Super Chlorinate to remove chloramines at the initial start-up of the pool and as needed to maintain proper levels of free chlorine.
-
Cyanuric acid is needed in outdoor pools to help to stabilize and maintain proper levels of chlorine. 90% of unstabilized chlorine is destroyed by the UV radiation from the sun within two hours. Cyanuric acid stabilizes chlorine in water from UV degradation. When using the iCHLOR, the cyanuric acid level should be maintained between 30-50 ppm. See Table 2.
NOTE: DO NOT USE CYANURIC ACID IN INDOOR POOLS. -
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 to the iCHLOR system. The individual performing the TDS test may then subtract the salinity level to arrive at a TDS level that would be compatible to a TDS reading for a non-salt water pool.
-
Metals – Some metals, i.e. copper and iron, can cause loss of chlorine. Also, metals can stain your pool. Metals can also damage the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator. Have your local pool professional check for metals and recommend methods of removal.
-
Nitrates and Phosphates 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 pool professional can test for nitrates and phosphates. While a 0 ppm level of nitrates is the ideal, the pool owner should make sure that nitrates DO NOT exceed 10 ppm. Phosphates should not exceed 125 parts per billion (ppb).
Optimum Pool Water Chemistry Conditions for Salt Water Pools (using the
iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator)
In accordance with the Association of Pool and Spa Professionals (APSP)
standards, it is recommended that the following pool water chemistry
conditions be maintained on an on going basis to help protect pool users, pool
related equipment and surfaces in and around the pool. These values are
important to maintaining the pool equipment in proper operating condition and
preventing corrosion, liming or other problems. The iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator is
warranted to operate properly only if these conditions are met. For more
information, refer to your local agency having jurisdiction, NSPI (National
Spa and Pool Institute), the CDC (Centers for Disease Control), or the WHO
(World Health Organization).
- Free Chlorine: 2.0 – 4.0 ppm. Above 4.0 ppm may cause corrosion of metal components
- Combined Chlorine (Chloramines): None (super chlorinate to remove all chloramines)
- pH: 7.2 – 7.8 (USE MURIATIC ACID to lower pH and Soda Ash to raise pH.)
- Cyanuric Acid : 30 – 50 ppm
- Total Alkalinity: 80 – 120 ppm
- Calcium Hardness: 200 – 400 ppm
- TDS (includes salt): 3000 minimum to 5700 to 6000 maximum ppm
- Salt : 3000 – 4500 ppm (ideal 3400 ppm)
- Metals (Copper, Iron, Manganese): None
- Nitrates: None
- Phosphates: Less than 125 ppb
- Saturation Index -0.3 to 0.3 (zero (0) best)
Covered Pools and Vinyl Liner Pool and Lowering Chlorine Output Levels
When using the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator with covered pools and/or vinyl liner
pools, less chlorine is needed. It is recommend to lower the chlorine output
level while the pool is covered.
Chlorine Testing
It is recommended that chlorine test samples be taken from two (2) locations
in the pool. Compare the samples. A higher level should be found at the pool
return line. The higher level at the pool return line indicates the iCHLOR is
producing chlorine. Take chlorine samples for testing at:
- The pool return line.
- 450mm below the surface and well away from the pool return line.
What Type of Salt to Use
The purer the salt, the better the life and performance of the iCHLOR Salt
Chlorinator. Use salt that is at least 99.8% pure NaCl, sodium chloride. The
preferred and recommended salt is an evaporated, granulated, food quality,
non-iodized salt with no additives. Consult your pool professional/salt
supplier.
- Avoid using salt with anti-caking agents (sodium ferrocyanide, also known as YPS or yellow prussiate of soda). Filling agents can 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. Such pellets could damage pool plaster and other surfaces in and around the pool.
- Do not use calcium chloride or potassium 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 iCHLOR).
How Much Salt to Use?
CAUTION
FOR ALL NEWLY CONSTRUCTED OR RESURFACED PLASTER POOLS: Do not operate the
iCHLOR with newly poured or resurfaced pool plaster. Salt is a corrosive
element and severe salt damage can occur to your pool. Wait at least ONE (1)
MONTH after construction to allow plaster to cure before adding salt and
operating iCHLOR. Follow the pool surface manufacturer’s guidelines for your
specific pool.
FOR NEW VINYL LINER POOLS, contact the manufacturer for recommended guidelines
before adding salt and operating iCHLOR.
Use the Table 1 chart to determine how much salt will be needed. Most pools contain some salt, depending on the water source and chemicals used for sanitizing. Therefore, the pool owner must always test salt levels before adding salt. A hand held meter calibrated for NaCl (salt) can be used to determine the salt levels of the pool water. After the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator is powered on, the LED salt level lights will blink from bottom to top for two (2) minutes while it analyzes the pool water, then the LED indicators will show one (1) of four (4) salt level ranges. This solid light indicates the salt status of the pool.
- 3000 to 3500 ppm of salt is recommended for optimum water conditions.
- Low salt concentration below 2600 ppm will cause the unit to turn off
- High salt concentration above 4500 ppm may cause excessive corrosion or deterioration to pool equipment and surrounding surfaces in and around the pool.
Note: Salt measurements will vary between measuring devices (salt test strips, electronic testers, and titration). The salt sensor reading is within +/- 500 ppm accuracy. For more troubleshooting information about high salt levels, see “Troubleshooting”.
Calculating the Saturation Index
The saturation index is a formula that relates pH, calcium and alkalinity in
the pool water. A well balanced pool water will have a formula result range
between -0.3 and 0.3 Outside this range, the pool water is out of balance,
potentially damaging pool equipment or scaling the iCHLOR. The equation to
calculate Si is:
Cyanuric acid in the form of cyanurate ions contribute to alkalinity. Thus, a correction must be made to total alkalinity. We subtract 1/3 of the cyanuric acid level from the reading obtained in the total alkalinity test.
Total Alkalinity – 1/3 Cyanuric Acid = Corrected Alkalinity
This correction can be considerable in established pools with high cyanuric
acid levels; for example, at 240 ppm cyanuric acid, the correction amounts to
80 ppm (240 ÷ 3 = 80).

How to Add Salt to the Pool
CAUTION
FOR ALL NEWLY CONSTRUCTED OR RESURFACED PLASTER POOLS: Do not operate the
iCHLOR with newly poured or resurfaced pool plaster. Salt is a corrosive
element and severe salt damage can occur to your pool. Wait at least ONE (1)
MONTH after construction to allow plaster to cure before adding salt and
operating iCHLOR. Follow the pool surface manufacturer’s guidelines for your
specific pool.
FOR NEW VINYL LINER POOLS, contact the manufacturer for recommended guidelines
before adding salt and operating iCHLOR.
- Check salt level in pool water before adding any salt to pool.
- Determine the amount of salt from the following charts.
- Slowly pour in the salt around the outer perimeter of the pool for quick and even distribution.
- To avoid clogging the filter or damaging pool related equipment and surrounding surfaces, do not add salt through the skimmer or surge tank.
- Brush the pool bottom and allow water to circulate for 24 hours to dissolve salt completely.
- After 24 hours, verify correct salt level reading by checking the LED indicators on the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator and by a separate reliable test method.
- Power on the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator and set the Sanitizer Output level to the proper setting to maintain the appropriate free chlorine levels in the pool water (i.e., within the 2.0 – 4.0 ppm, APSP recommended range).
Pool Water Preparation
Determining Pool Size (liters of water in your pool)
-
Rectangular Pools: Length x width (meters) x average depth x 1000
Circular Pools: Diameter x diameter x average depth x 785 -
Oval Pools: Length x width (meters) x average depth x 893
-
Sloping Sides: Multiply total liters by 0.85 = liter capacity.
CAUTION
Never use dry acid (sodium bisulfate) to adjust pH in arid geographic areas
with excessive evaporation and minimal dilution of pool water with fresh
water. A buildup of byproducts can damage the iCHLOR.
TABLE 1. Approximate pounds (lbs) / kilogram (kg) of salt needed to obtain 3.400ppm in pool
TABLE 2. Approximate amount of stabilizer (cyanuric acid) to obtain 40ppm in pool
NOTE: The cyanuric acid reading should be maintained at 30 – 50ppm.
Operating iCHLOR™ Salt Chlorinator
This section describes the startup procedure and operating instructions for
iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator.
Before starting up and operating iCHLOR, the pool in which the iCHLOR will be
used must have been completed and filled with water for at least one (1) month
(for plaster pools) and the pool water salt level must be stable and being
maintained at 3.300 to 3.600 ppm.
Initial Startup Period
For the first thirty (30) days of cell operation, the self-cleaning cycle, is
factory set to two (2) hours. After thirty (30) days has elapsed, iCHLOR will
automatically set itself to three (3) hour self-cleaning cycle. This feature
will clean the iCHLOR blades more often during the initial installation, then
go to a more standard self- cleaning cycle for longer blade life.
Operation
Use of an external Pool Pump Timer is not required
The iCHLOR is designed to supply a sufficient amount of chlorine to sanitize
pool water on a daily basis. If the pool pump is continuously running and the
iCHLOR is operated 24 hours a day at 100%, more chlorine would be generated
than would be needed by most pools (2-4 ppm, per APSP recommendations). The
iCHLOR has its own internal timer which cycles the electrolytic cell on and
off depending on what percent the Sanitizer Output is set.
CAUTION
The iCHLOR is designed only to produce chlorine. The iCHLOR does not monitor
or control chlorine levels in the pool or spa water. It is the pool owner’s
responsibility for monitoring and maintaining free chlorine levels at 2.0 to
4.0 parts per million (ppm) according to APSP recommendations. It is the pool
owner’s responsibility to check the free
chlorine level while the pool pump is running on a regular basis, and adjust
the Sanitizer Output on the iCHLOR accordingly.
CAUTION
Before attempting to operate iCHLOR refer to “General Recommendations and
General Cautions”, at the end of this section, and “Pool Water Preparation” in
previous section. Also, do not adjust Sanitizer Output above 20% until it is
certain that salt has been dissolved in your pool. Operating without salt will
result in the unit turning off and lighting the ADD SALT light on the salt
display. No chlorine will be produced until salt is added to the pool.
If you use a Pool Pump Timer
The Association of Pool and Spa Professionals (APSP) recommends that all water
in a residential pool pass through the filtration system at least once every
24 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 a
standard initial run time (starting point) for the pool pump and chlorinating
system.
Try initially setting the pool pump timer to twelve (12) hours. It will take a
few days to achieve the correct amount of pool pump operating time. When
iCHLOR is wired with a pool pump timer, results will vary greatly from one
pool installation to the next, so this should be discussed with your pool
professional. The key points are:
- Operate the pool pump at least the minimum time needed for good filtration and adequate chlorine production by the iCHLOR, according to your pool professional’s recommendations.
- While pool pump timers can reduce energy consumption, the pool pump must be running for the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator to provide chlorine and must remain running long enough to maintain proper chlorine levels (i.e., 2.0 – 4.0 ppm of free available chlorine).
Note: Exception – For Cold Weather Operation: The unit turns off in water temperatures below 12° C, and will not produce chlorine. This feature extends the life of the cell.
Start-up Procedure (Super Chlorination)
Super Chlorination is recommended before pool start-up. Start out with clean,
properly chlorinated, pool water from the beginning. The iCHLOR will build up
a sufficient level of chlorine for sanitation in several hours. However, if
the pool water has a high demand from the start-up the iCHLOR will not be able
to produce enough chlorine to reach break-point chlorination. So, it is best
to super chlorinate using an outside source at the time of pool start-up.
Then, wait until the chlorine level has returned to 2.0 to 4.0 ppm before
switching on the iCHLOR.
Sanitizer Output Settings and Adjustments
- Switch on the pool pump switch or pool pump timer. The salt display will blink both LEDs (bottom to top) for two (2) minutes, indicating that it has not checked the salt level yet. After two (2) minutes, the salt will be checked and one (1) of the salt level LEDs will be displayed. If the salinity is below 2600 ppm, the salt display will light the red LOW SALT indicator, and the CELL light will go blank, indicating there is not enough salt in the pool for chlorine to be produced.
- Set the Sanitizer Output to “MED” by pressing the MORE or LESS button.
- After 24 hours, use a reliable test method to test the pool water for free available chlorine. The ideal range to maintain is 2.0-4.0 ppm. If the free chlorine level of the pool water is too low, increase chlorine production by pressing the MORE button. If the free chlorine level of the pool water is too high, decrease chlorine production by pressing the LESS button.
- Due to a varying free chlorine demand of pool water, it may take a few days to determine the number of daily pool operating hours and “Sanitizer Output” percentage setting for your pool. Continue adjusting as necessary, allowing 24 hours between adjustments until the free chlorine level of the pool water is stabilized at 2.0 – 4.0 ppm, per APSP recommendations.
Operating in Winter
The iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator switches off and will not produce chlorine in
water temperatures below 12° C. This feature extends the life of the iCHLR.
See “Winterizing”.
General Recommendations
-
Read and keep this Installation and User’s Guide in a safe place.
-
Increase Sanitizer Output level as necessary after heavy rain (outdoor pools) and return to normal afterwards.
-
Increase Sanitizer Output level when air and water temperature rise.
-
Increase Sanitizer Output level when number of pool users increase.
-
Use Cyanuric Acid ONLY as necessary to stabilize chlorine in the pool water in outdoor pools.
NOTE: DO NOT USE CYANURIC ACID IN INDOOR POOLS. -
Once a month take a pool water sample to a pool professional for a complete analysis.
General Cautions
- Do not get fertilizer in your pool. Fertilizers contain nitrates, which cause a high chlorine demand.
- 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 byproducts can damage the iCHLOR.
- Do not add any pool water balancing chemicals (including salt) unless the iCHLOR is switched off.
- Do not let the Cyanuric Acid level drop below 30 ppm in outdoor pools.
NOTE: DO NOT USE CYANURIC ACID IN INDOOR POOLS.
User Maintenance
This section describes how to maintain the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator.
Daily service
None is needed.
Weekly service
-
pH Level Test: Test the pH level of your pool water with a reliable test method. If necessary, adjust according to your pool professional’s recommendations. APSP’s recommended ideal range for pH is 7.4 to 7.6, although 7.2 to 7.8 is an acceptable range under APSP’s guidelines.
Note: Never use dry acid (sodium bisulfate) to adjust pH in arid geographic areas with excessive evaporation and minimal dilution of pool water with fresh water. A buildup of byproducts can damage the iCHLOR. -
Total Alkalinity Test: Test the pool water for total alkalinity with a reliable test method. Adjust according to your pool professional’s recommendations. APSP’s recommended ideal range for total alkalinity is 80 to 120 ppm.
-
Chlorine Test: Test the pool water the for free chlorine level with a reliable test method. Maintain ideal range by adjusting the iCHLORSalt Chlorinator Sanitize Output settings. See “More and Less Output Buttons”.
- Desired Free Chlorine is 2.0-4.0 ppm, per APSP recommendations.
- Above 4.0 ppm of chlorine may cause excessive corrosion of metal components and possibly cause damage to associated pool equipment.
- It is recommended that free chlorine readings be taken from samples of pool water taken from two (2) places, one at the pool return line, the other well away from the pool return line. Compare the test results. A higher free chlorine level should be found at the pool return line. The higher free chlorine level at the pool return line indicates iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator is producing chlorine.
Monthly Service
To ensure that the correct chemical balance is maintained in your pool, it is
important to perform the following recommended salt and pool water tests every
month using a reliable test method.
- Salt Level Test: Check salt display lights on the unit and check that the green “GOOD” light is on and is not flashing.
- If the red LOW LED salt light is on. Add salt to the pool water
- If salt level does not rise after 24 hours, see “Troubleshooting”
- Pool Water Sample: Take a sample of the pool water to your local pool store for testing.
- Cyanuric Acid: Sample the pool water and test for cyanuric acid level using a reliable test method. When using the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator the recommended ideal cyanuric acid level is 30-50 ppm.
- Calcium Hardness: Test pool water for calcium hardness level using a reliable test method. If necessary, adjust according to your pool professional’s recommendations. APSP’s recommended ideal range for calcium is 200 to 400 ppm for pools.
- Metals Test: It is recommended that the pool water be sampled and tested periodically for the presence of metals such as copper, iron, and manganese. These metals can damage the iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator and other related pool equipment and should not be present in the pool water. If those metals are present, contact your pool professional.
- TDS (Total Dissolved Solids): Test pool water for TDS level using test kit or by having a water sample tested by a pool professional. If necessary, adjust according to your pool professional’s recommendations. APSP standard of 3000 minimum to 5700 – 6000 maximum ppm (which includes the salt) is recommended for salt pools.
iCHLOR™ Salt Chlorinator Usage Hours Meter
The iCHLOR provides a built-in cell “usage hours” meter that reports how many
hours iCHLOR has been operating. To access the system status mode:
- Press and hold the MORE button for three (3) seconds until the lights scroll across the unit.
- One (1) of the three (3) Sanitizer Output LED indicators (Low, Med, High) will be lit, indicating the hours of usage. The Output LEDs are as follows:
- 2000 hours (Low LED on)
- 4000 hours (Med LED on
- 6000 hours (High LED on)
Cleaning the iCHLOR Cell Blades
Note: Before acid washing, remove the calcium buildup in cell: Use a garden
hose on the jet setting and spray directly into both ends of the cell. Most of
this calcium buildup has a slushy consistency and will be blown out of the
cell. Once the majority of the calcium has been removed, continue with acid
washing which will now be more effective since most of the calcium has been
removed.
- Automatic Cleaning: The iCHLOR has an automatic cell blade cleaning feature (cell reversing) that helps remove scale deposits from the iCHLOR blades. Note: Automatic cleaning does not interrupt chlorine production. “Scale” is a white crusty deposit that forms in excessively hard water or from pool water that is out of balance and in a scaling condition. If the iCHLOR blades show excessive scaling, you need to perform an acid wash cleaning. Proceed to “Acid Wash Cleaning” Step 2.
- Acid Wash Cleaning: If the iCHLOR blades show a tendency to scale, it is recommended that every two (2) months the iCHLOR be removed and inspected for scale formation and/or debris on the iCHLOR blades. High hardness areas may require more frequent cleaning. Some filters allow debris to pass through to the iCHLOR, possibly lodging between the blades in the iCHLOR. A small amount of scale formation is normal. If by looking through the iCHLOR, it is observed that there is excessive scale formation between the blades, or debris is present, the iCHLOR must be cleaned as follows:
Use a high-pressure jet of water from a garden hose. If the blades cannot be reasonably cleaned in this manner, acid cleaning is necessary.
TO ACID CLEAN THE iCHLOR™ BLADES:
-
Disconnect the AC power from the Power Center. Disconnect the ICHLOR Salt Chlorinator cell communication cable from the Power Center.
-
Mix one (1) part acid with one (1) part tap water in a plastic bucket.
-
Submerge the blades in this solution without allowing the control panel or cables to be exposed to the solution
-
Allow the acid solution to bubble, and to clean the blades.
The acid should only be contained inside the iCHLOR covering the blades. Try not to spill the acid on the outside of the iCHLOR. If acid does spill on the outside of the iCHLOR, wash it off with water. A foaming action will begin, which is caused by scale (calcium carbonate) being dissolved from the blades. If rigorous foaming action does not begin, the blades do not need to be cleaned (STOP THE CLEANING PROCESS – go on to the next step). Otherwise, allow the blades to remain immersed in the solution until the foaming has stopped. However, do not leave acid in the iCHLOR for more than thirty (30) minutes. Excessive acid washing will damage the blades. -
Remove the iCHLOR from the bucket and place in an empty 20 liter bucket. Rinse the inside and outside of the iCHLOR thoroughly with clean tap water and inspect. If deposits are still visible, repeat the acid cleaning process.
-
Rinse the iCHLOR again with clean tap water and inspect. Once clean, replace the iCHLOR and resume normal operation.
-
If the acid wash procedure is necessary, it is recommended that a sample of pool water be analyzed by a pool professional for excessive calcium hardness (i.e. ideal range is 200 to 400 ppm) and/or improper water balance.
-
Inspect the inside of the iCHLOR every two (2) months (or more frequent in hard water areas). If no scale or debris deposits are observed inside the iCHLOR after four (4) months, it is not necessary to continue inspections every two (2) months. However, due to possible changes in pool water chemistry and filtering effectiveness, it is recommended that the cell be removed for inspection at least twice a year.
-
Reconnect the iCHLOR communication cable plug in the Power Center, then reconnect AC power to the Power Center.
Winterizing
Very little chlorine production is needed in cold water so long as free
chlorine levels are maintained at 2.0 – 4.0 ppm. The iCHLOR Salt Chlorinator
will not produce chlorine below 12° C. This low-temperature cutoff extends the
life of the cell. If preventative measures are not taken, freezing water may
cause severe damage to the cell. Prevent freeze damage to the cell by running
the pool pump continuously or winterize the pool by draining water from pump,
filter and all intake and return lines. Remove the cell, clean and store it.
