High Capacity Chemical Feeder
User Manual
Keep the manual for future reference
REMORA CL series automatic chlorine feeder is designed to be used side by side with your filtration system. The feeder is driven by the pressure difference between its outlet and inlet which pushes water through it. It uses slow- dissolve chlorine, bromine or active oxygen large or small tablets (or sticks) ONLY. You should NEVER use another type of chemical. CL-01 and CL-01A can hold up to 2kg of tablets while CL-02 and CL-02A can hold up to 4kg. Such capacity should be able to provide 1 to 2 weeks’ of chlorination for large pools. The feeder has a dial-type control valve to adjust the flow rate through itself, by regulating the valve setting and the number of tablets placed in the feeder, the chlorine feed rate is needed to maintain the proper chlorine level of your pool can be readily tuned.
WARNING: READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP THE MANUAL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE This
feeder can ONLY be used with slow-dissolving Chlorine, Bromine or Active
Oxygen tablets. Do NOT mix with another type of chlorine or chemical,
otherwise, it may cause an explosion or fire. Great care must be taken while
opening the feeder. Always switch off-pump and close all available valves
before opening. Do NOT inhale air from any chemical feeder or container.
Always protect your eyes, skin, and clothing from any chemicals.
Do NOT open a feeder while the pump is running. To prevent gas from building
up in the feeder, make sure the pool return line valve is kept open except
when opening or servicing. Always read the label’s warning information and
closely follow the chlorine manufacturer’s and or dealer’s recommendation for
proper conditioning and daily chlorine requirements for your particular pool.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
- Before starting up your chlorine feeder your pool/spa should be properly conditioned with a chlorine level of 1.0 to 1.5ppm. Directions and instructions from dealers and chemical manufacturers should be followed.
- The chlorine demand for pools and spas varies according to load, usage, temperature, sunlight etc. Initially, you should experiment to determine the proper amount of chlorine and the correct valve setting required for our pool and filter time cycle. Taking a 90 cubic meter pool as a reference, we suggest You place about 1.8kg slow issolve tablets in your feeder and leave the dial valve set at No.3.(Increase or reduce the chlorine amount based on the pool size, for example, for 135 cubic meter pool dd 50% more chlorine.) Check chlorine residual daily and adjust the dial valve for more or less chlorine. Increasing the quantity of chlorine in your feeder with extending the recharging circle.
OPENING THE FEEDER LID
- Turn off pump and turn Dial Control Valve to “O”. Shut off inline valve(s) if any to prevent backflow. Unscrew Venting Screw at the top of the Lid. Wait for 1 minute to ensure the release of pressure.
- Turn the Nut of the Lid anti-clockwise to disassemble the Lid.
CLOSING THE FEEDER LID
- Align the Nut of the Lid to the threads of the Feeder. Engage the Nut threads by turning clockwise to tighten.
- Tighten the Venting Screw.
- Set the Dial Control Valve to the desired position then open the inline valve(s) if available.
- Turn on the pump.
VACUUMING
Close Dial Control Valve to avoid bypass of sediment and possible clogging of
control valve when vacuuming.
CHANGING O-RINGS
| 
---|---
- Follow the steps under “OPENING THE FEEDER LID”
- Before replacing the o-ring, make sure all liquid has been discharged by removing the Feeder’s bottom drain plug with a screwdriver.
- Turn the Lid upside down and the o-ring can be found.
- Insert a flat-head screwdriver into the groove as indicated. Using the screwdriver at an angle lift the o-ring.
- Once the o-ring had been replaced. Follow the steps under “CLOSING THE FEEDER LID”.
- Turn the Dial Control Valve to the maximum setting and continue to turn anti-clockwise until the dail control-click twice. The Drain Control Valve can then be removed from the feeder.
- Replace the two o-rings.
- Once the o-rings had been replaced, insert the Dial Control Valve back into the feeder. Turn clockwise until the Dail Control-click twice. It is important to ensure the Dail Control passes the second click.
- Select the desired position then open the inline valve and restart the pump.
WARNING: DO NOT use petroleum type of lubricants on the O-ring. Silicone Grease is recommended.
INSTALLATION
HARD PIPE (CL-01 / CL-02)
Always install the chlorine Feeder after the heater. If there is no heater,
install it after the filter. Position the Chlorine Feeder on a level surface
as close to the filter and pump as possible. The preferred installation is
above water level and using Inline Setup (Figure 1). The feeder needs to be
below the filter or the heater (if available) as indicated in Figure 1.
At the inlet pipe to the feeder, a positive seal corrosion-resistant check
valve should be installed to reduce the backflow of chlorine gas when the
system is turned off. It is recommended that if the feeder is installed below
the waterline, a check valve is needed to prevent water backflow when opening
the unit.
FLEXIBLE HOSE (CL-01A / CL-02A)
The Stainless Steel Saddle Clamps for the Flexible Hose installation are
designed for pipes with diameters of 1.5′ or 2.0′.
Inlet
|
---|---
- Along the pipe between the pump and the filter as shown in Figure 2, make a hole of 10mm in diameter as the inlet for the feeder.
- Clean off burrs and shavings, insert the Saddle Fitting Adaptor with Gasket into the drilled hole. Place the Saddle Clamp on to the pipe as indicated. Connect the hose. Outlet
- Along the pipe after the filter and heater as shown in figure 2 , drill a hole of 10mm in diameter as the outlet for the feeder.
- Clean off burrs and shavings, insert the Saddle Fitting Adaptor with Gasket into the drilled hole. Place the Saddle Clamp on to the pipe as indicated. Connect the hose.
- Connect the inlet and outlet tubing with the Adaptor into the Feeders’ Threaded Plug.
Note: After installation starts up the system to perform a leakage check, retighten if required. The feeder can be fixed onto the installation surface by tapping screws and securing holes in its base.
