SETUP INSTRUCTIONS
English
133 A
IMPORTANT
· The Saltwater System requires a separate filter pump [300~1000 gph
(1136~3785 lph)] to drive the water and function properly.
· The Saltwater System must be installed as the last piece of pool equipment
in the water return line to the pool as displayed below. This location extends
the life of the titanium plates.
· Remove any large debris and particles such as leaves, sand, insects and bugs
from the pool water first.
1. Assemble the above-ground-pool (AGP) and its filter pump according to
their installation instructions.
2. Take the Saltwater System and its accessories out of the packaging. 3.
Place the Saltwater System in line after the filter pump. 4. Connect the
connector hose (2) to the Saltwater System inlet with a hose clamp (3). 5. Go
directly to step 6 if your pool is empty. If your above-ground-pool is filled
with water,
unscrew the strainer grids from the strainer connectors and insert the black
hat-like plugs into the connectors, before installing the saltwater pool
system. 6. Disconnect the water return hose from the filter pump connection
and connect it to the Saltwater System outlet. 7. Connect the connector hose
(2) to the filter pump outlet connection with a hose clamp (3). Tighten
securely. 8. Remove the black hat-like plugs that prevent water from flowing
out of the pool. Now, return the strainer grids to the strainer connectors.

SALT & POOL WATER VOLUMES
· Which kind of salt to use: For use within the European Union, salt must be
from an authorized salt supplier registered with the European Chemicals Agency
(ECHA) – visit echa.europa.eu. * Use only Sodium Chloride Salts Use only
sodium chloride (NaCl) salt that is at least 99.8% pure. It is also acceptable
to use water conditioning salt pellets (the compressed forms of evaporated
salt). However, it will take
a longer time for them to dissolve. Do not use iodized or yellow (yellow
prussiate of soda)
colored salt. Salt is added to the pool water and the electrolytic cell uses
the salt to create
chlorine. The purer the salt the better the performance of the electrolytic
cell.
· Optimum Salt Levels The ideal salt level in the pool water is between
2500-3500 ppm (parts per million). The optimal level is 3000 ppm.
A too low salt level will reduce the efficiency of the Saltwater System and
result in low chlorine
production. A high salt level may generate a salty taste to the pool water
(this may occur at a salt level above 3500-4000ppm). Too high salt level may
damage the power supply and cause corrosion to the pool metal fixtures and
accessories. The Salt Table page of this manual shows
the correct dosage of salt needed.
· Adding Salt 1. Switch the filter pump on to start the water circulation. 2.
Keep the Saltwater System turned off. 3. Determine the amount of salt to be
added (see “Salt Table”). 4. Evenly spread the proper amount of salt around
the inside perimeter of the pool. 5. Avoid clogging the filter. Do not add
salt through the skimmer. 6. Brush the pool bottom to speed up the dissolving
process. Do not allow salt to pile up on the
bottom of the pool. Run the filter pump 24 consecutive hours to thoroughly
dissolve the salt.
7. After 24 hours and if all the salt is dissolved, turn on the Saltwater
System, press code
“00” flashing and set the saltwater pool system to desired operating time (see
“Operating Time Table”).
· Removing Salt If too much salt has been added, the unit will beep and
display “Code 92” (see “Alarm Codes”).
You will need to lower the salt concentration. The only way to do so, is to
partially drain the pool and refill it with fresh water. Drain and refill
approximately 20% of the pool’s water until the “Code 92″ disappears.

- The European Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR, Regulation (EU) 528/2012) requires that salt (sodium chloride) used as a precursor for on-site generation of active chlorine by electrolysis
must be registered by the salt supplier with the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), and such supplier must be included on ECHA’s list of authorized suppliers (Article 95 list).

INTEX POOLS CYANURIC ACID TABLE
Cyanuric acid is a chemical that reduces the loss of chlorine in water due to ultraviolet rays. To maintain the pool water clear and clean, and to maximize the performance of the device, add cyanuric acid to the pool. We recommend that the cyanuric acid level be maintained at approximately 0.35% of the salt, i.e. 100 Lbs (45 Kgs) salt x 0.35% = 0.35 Lbs (0.16 Kgs) cyanuric acid. If the pool water is dirty, filthy or grimy, DO NOT add chlorine stabilizer (cyanuric acid) as this will slowdown the sanitization time of the device. Under this condition you must BOOST your pool water, refer to BOOST cycle steps. Once the pool water has been restored to clear and clean conditions you may add cyanuric acid.

MAINTENANCE
English
133 A
IMPORTANT
Unplug the power cord before cleaning your system. Also insert the black hat-
like plugs in the strainer opening to prevent water spillage. After completing
all maintenance tasks, you must plug the power cord back in and remove the
plugs.
Titanium Electrode Cleaning The titanium electrode has a self cleaning
function incorporated into the electronic control’s programming. In most cases
this self cleaning action will keep the electrode working at optimum
efficiency. If the pool water is hard (high mineral content) the electrode may
require periodic manual cleaning. To maintain maximum performance, we
recommend that you open
and visually inspect the titanium electrode (7) monthly.
The following steps provide instructions on how to clean your cell.
Inspection and cleaning: 1. Switch off the unit, unplug the power cord from
the electrical socket. 2. To prevent water from flowing out of the pool,
unscrew the strainer grids from the strainer
connectors and insert the hat-like plugs into the strainer connectors. 3.
Disconnect the 2 hoses from the Saltwater System (see drawings 1~3). 4.
Unscrew the titanium electrode plug collar, disconnect the plug from the
titanium electrode (7)
(see drawing 4). 5. Unscrew the cell nut, remove the titanium electrode from
the cell housing (see drawing 5). 6. Place the titanium electrode in a
container and pour kitchen grade vinegar into the
container until the titanium electrode is immersed. Soak for 1 hour and then
flush with a high-pressure garden hose (see drawing 6). 7. Reverse steps 3, 4,
5 and 6 to reconnect the electrolytic cell.

INTEX® TEST STRIPS (PACKED WITH THE PRODUCT)
The Test Strips can test the “Free Chlorine”, “pH”, “Calcium Hardness” and
“Total Alkalinity” levels at the same time. We recommend that you test the
water chemistry weekly, and maintain the chlorine concentration at 1.0-3.0
ppm.
Directions and Use 1. Dip the entire strip into the water and remove
immediately. 2. Hold the strip level for 15 seconds. Do not shake excess water
from the strip. 3. Now compare the strip pad to the color chart on the
packaging label. If necessary, adjust
the chemical level in the pool water. It is very important, to use the proper
technique when testing the water’s chemical level. Read and follow the written
strip instructions carefully.
LONG TERM STORAGE
1. Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet. 2. After the pool is
completely empty, disconnect the Saltwater System from the hoses by
reversing the installation instructions. 3. Air-dry the unit before you store
it. This might be a good time to visually inspect and clean
the electrolytic cell. 4. Store the unit and accessories in a dry place. The
temperature should be controlled,
between 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius) and 97 degrees Fahrenheit
(36 degrees Celsius). 5. The original package can be used for storage.

Free Chlorine – Is the chlorine residual present in pool water.
Combined Chlorine – Is formed by the reaction of free chlorine with ammonia
wastes.
Result if too high – Sharp chlorinous odor, eye irritation.
pH – A value that indicates how acidic or basic a solution is.
Result if too low – Corroded metals, eye & skin irritation, destruction of
total alkalinity.
Result if too high – Scale formation, cloudy water, shorter filter runs, eye &
skin irritation, poor chlorine efficiency.
Total Alkalinity – Indicates the degree of the water’s resistance to change in
pH.
It determines the speed and ease of pH change, so always adjust total
alkalinity before adjusting the pH level. Result if too low – Corroded metals,
eye & skin irritation. Low alkalinity
will cause the pH to be unstable. Any chemical added to the water will have an
affect on pH. Result if too high – Scale formation, cloudy water, eye & skin
irritation, poor chlorine efficiency.
Calcium Hardness – Refers to the amount of calcium and magnesium dissolved in
the water.
Result if too high – Eye & skin irritation, difficulty balancing water and
poor chlorine efficiency. Scale will form and will cause the water to become
cloudy.
Stabilizer – Stabilizers extend the life of chlorine in swimming pools.
(Cyanuric Acid)
· Do not add pool chemicals directly to the skimmer. This may damage the cell.
· Maintaining a salt and sanitizer level above the recommended range can
contribute to the
corrosion of the pool equipment. · Check the expiry date of the test kit as
the test results may be inaccurate if the kit is used
after that date. · If, due to heavy pool usage, it is required to increase the
sanitizer level, then use a chemical
based on trichlor, TCCA or dichloro.
