THE OPERATING CONDITION AND MAINTENANCE OF THE SALT CHLORINATOR.
he mixture and maintenance of water and salt.
The calculation of the amount of water:
Knowing the capacity of the pool is the first step in adding salt to the pool.
Rectangular pool: length (meter) x width(meter) x average depth (meter) = pool
water capacity (cubic meter)
Circular pool: diameter(meter) x diameter(meter) x average depth(meter) x
0.785 = pool water capacity (cubic meter)
Ellipse pool: length (meter) x width(meter) x average depth(meter) x 0.893 =
pool water capacity (cubic meter)
Beveled pool : pool volume (cubic meter) x 0.85 = pool water capacity (cubic
meter)
The type of salt
The purer the salt, the more the advantageous of the salt chlorinator would operate This will also extend the service life of the chlorinator. The Sodium Chloride (Nalco) in the salt should be at least 99.6%. Best if the salt is dehydrated granular food grade sea salt.
** WARNING **
A. Please do not use rock salt, its impurity may shorten the service life of chlorinator
B. Do not use Calcium Chloride as salt, only sodium chloride can be used .
C. Avoid using anti-blocking agent (sodium cyanide, aka YPS, is poisonous and corrosive) salt, this kind of salt may change the color of the pool surface and the equipment’s inside
D. Can use water treatment salt pills, but it make take very long time to melt in the water.
Adding the right amount of salt
Most pools contains certain amount of salt, the concentration of the salt in
water will
vary depending on the water source and the sterilizing agent used. Users can
use
hand-held NaCl tester or salinity pen to test the current salt concentration
of the pool
** Tips **
-
The best operating salt concentration level of the salt chlorinator EC series 1s500ppm (3.5kg of salt per cubic meter).
-
When operating the salt chlorinator EC series for the first time. Add salt to the pool following the steps below: A. Use a salinity meter to check the original concentration in the pool.
B. Add appropriate amount of salt, ensure that for each cubic meter water add 3.5kg of salt. -
The concentration of salt (ppm value) can be seen as the gram of salt within 1 ton of
water. If the current salt concentration of a 100 M3 pool is 850ppm (can be taken as
850g in 1 ton of water), how much salt is needed for the chlorinator to normally pate ? -
Salt need to be added(unit: gram) = water in the pool x (normal operation salt concentration — the current pool salt concentration) = 100 x (3500-850) = 265000 gram.
The correct way of adding salt
a. Turn on the circulation pump of the pool, and let the water
circulation begin.
b. Turn off the salt chlorinator.
c. Test the current salt concentration of the pool
d. Calculate the amount of salt needed to add to the pool according to
the corresponding chart.
e. Add salt to the pool around the side of the pool, so that it can
quickly and evenly dilute into the water. Do not let salt accumulate on the
bottom of the pool. Stir the water on the bottom of the pool if needed so the
salt can completely dissolve.
f. Run the circulation pump for 24 hours, so the salt can evenly
distribute in the pool.
g. 24 hours later, test the salt concentration of the pool again to see
if it has reached optimum level.
h. When the salt concentration of the pool has reached the desired level,
turn on the salt chlorinator and other equipment’s. Once the chlorinator
initiates, please set your desired level of chlorine production.
Decrease the concentration of salt
The only way to decrease the concentration of salt is to drain a part of the
pool’s water and replacing it with fresh water.
In order to reduce the loss of chlorine by the UV radiating on outdoor pool water dose Cyanuric acid of 20—100mg/L as chlorine stabilizer.
The maintenance of salt chlorinator
The maintenance of the electrolysis cell
To ensure the smooth operation of the salt chlorinator, the electrolysis cell
shocked every three months or after cleaning the filter, whichever comes
first. Follow the steps below to complete the check:
A. Before removing the electrolysis cell, close the inlet and output
valve after shut doom the salt chlorinator for 5 — 10 minutes.
B. After removal of the electrolysis cell, check to see if there are
flake-like sediments, debris, light colored layering in the inner surface.
Wash with clean water.
C. Ifthere are white calcified substance on the titanium plate. Submerge
the titanium plate into 4:1 water and hydrochloric acid solution to remove the
calcified substance. Please wear rubber gloves and eye protection for safety.
D. If there are major sediments that cannot be removed on one’s own,
please contact the seller for professional suggestion.
