Important Safety Matters are indicated by
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
SAFETY –FOR YOUR SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF
OTHERS, BEFORE YOU OPERATE THIS
CHLORINATOR.
Do not operate the chlorinator unless you have read all WARNINGS
and INSTRUCTIONS and understand all safety / operating procedures
contained in this manual. Ensure that the chlorinator (Power Pack,
Plumbing and Cell) has been installed by competent personnel to the
instructions contained in this manual.
Power Pack is to be installed according to AS/NZ 3000-2000 and
located outside pool Zone 2 area.
Servicing should only be attempted by trained technicians. Dangerous
voltages are present inside the chlorinator enclosure. Untrained
personnel should not attempt to remove the cover of the power pack.
Return to supplier for repair.
For any unresolved problems, contact your dealer.
Keep this manual in a safe, convenient location and refer to it if any
doubt exists over operational or safety matters.

iv
SAFETY –TO PREVENT RISK OR INJURY TO
YOURSELF AND OTHERS, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
Understand all safety and operational procedures contained in this
manual and check the condition of the chlorinator and cell before use.
Again, if in doubt, contact your dealer before proceeding.
Do not attempt to modify the chlorinator or installation in any way.
SAFETY –TO PREVENT RISK OR INJURY TO
YOURSELF AND OTHERS, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
The chlorinator should not be operated by personnel (eg. operating front
panel switches, adjusting time clock, safety cutout, cleaning cells etc.)
when the surrounding area is damp. In addition, personnel should not
operate the unit with bare feet or wet hands. This will minimise the risk
of electrocution in the event of a fault developing either in the
chlorinator or the electric power wiring to the unit.
SAFETY –CELL CLEANING USES HYDROCHLORIC
ACID. CARE IS REQUIRED.
Cell cleaning may require the use of hydrochloric acid which is a highly
corrosive chemical that needs to be handled with extreme care.
Personnel performing cleaning should be equipped with safety goggles
and acid resistant gloves as a minimum.

v
Any spills should be immediately flushed with water. When diluting the
acid ALWAYS ADD ACID TO WATER … NEVER THE REVERSE.
Take care when immersing the cell in the diluted acid solution to ensure
that no acid splashes or spills occur. When finished, wash gloves and
used containers in water.
Please note that the edges of the cell electrodes can be extremely sharp.
Avoid contact when cleaning as lacerations may occur.
SAFETY –IF IN ANY DOUBT ABOUT THE SAFETY OF
THE UNIT OR IF THE UNIT MALFUNCTIONS, ADOPT
THE FOLLOWING SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
Turn off the power to the unit at the power point. Disconnect the power
cord and call for service.
SAFETY –STORAGE OF CHEMICALS:
Never store chlorine and hydrochloric acid is the same area. They are
both very active chemicals and can react, if accidentally missed, with
explosive results.
SAFETY –ASPECTS TO BE CONSIDERED FOR
SERVICING:
Servicing should only be attempted by trained technicians. Dangerous
voltages are present inside the chlorinator enclosure. Untrained
personnel should not attempt to remove the cover of the power pack.

vi
Servicing should be carried out with the power switch off and the
chlorinator disconnected from the power point. Where is it absolutely
necessary to power the unit for service then it shall be powered from the
unearthed secondary of a safety isolation transformer or by means of an
approved earth leakage detection unit.
The chlorinator is a prescribed item under NSW law and cannot be
modified in any way.
As part of servicing the following safety checks need to be performed on
the chlorinator:
•The interior of the unit has not been modified or tampered with
in any way.
•There is adequate separation between mains and extra low
voltage parts.
•All insulating panels are in place and terminal connections are
tight.
•Earth pin of power cord to all external metal parts of the
chlorinator to have a resistance value not exceeding 0.1ohm.
•Megger power cord active and neutral at 500 V D.C. to all
external metal work and output cell terminals in turn.
Resistance value not to be less than 2 meg ohm.
•Visually ensure that all parts of the unit are in good condition.
Insulation on power cords is in good condition and any
corrosion on the pins of the power cord plug to be rectified.
Place a sticker on the underside of the unit identifying the Company that
carried out the service, date of service, safety check carried out and the
signature of the service technician that carried out the work.

INSTALLATION
These instructions should be read and understood completely before
starting installation. Correct installation is mandatory for correct and
safe operation.
1. POOL WATER PREPARATION
a) Measure the pool size in litres to determine salt requirements.
b) Refer to salt requirement chart. (page 10). Add 4kg of refined salt
per 1000 litres of water in shallow end of pool.
c) Connect up vacuum hose and place vacuum head close to salt.
This will cause salt to dissolve quicker.
d) BEFORE CHLORINATOR IS TURNED ON the salt must be
dissolved completely (24 hours in summer, 72 hours in winter).
2. MOUNT THE POWER PACK
a) Screw mounting bracket to wall or post with slots facing upwards
within 1.5 metres of the power outlet and within 1.5 metres of the
Filter Return to Pool Line.
b) Place back of Power Pack to mounting bracket and slot into place.
Note: Do not mount in direct sunlight.
3. INSTALL THE CELL
a) Determine Filter Return to Pool Line.
b) Cell must be in a horizontal position with inlet and outlet sockets
facing downward as per diagram (page 5).
c) Cell must be installed before all breakout lines such as dual outlets,
Spa lines.
d) Cell must be installed after the heater (where fitted) and Solar
systems (see Diagram Page 5). Pool cleaner pump motors which
draw water from the return to pool line should be fitted after the
Cell for correct pool chlorination.
