in.clear ™introduction
in.clear™
Water sanitation systems for spas
With its waterproof enclosure, its sturdy design, the new in.clear™ is the
most effi cient water sanitation system offered to the spa and hot tub
industry today.
In.clear™ is a system that generates and releases bromine into the spa
water to rapidly control and destroy any microbiological contaminants
such as waterborne bacteria, algaes, body chemicals, organic matter
given off by spa bathers and other organisms known to be linked to
recreational water illnesses.
The new in.clear™ system eliminates the need to add extra chemicals
in the water to destroy unsightly pollutants and achieves impeccable
results. The in.clear™ system does not produce any offensive odors, it
reduces eye irritation and it's easy to handle, making the in.clear™ the
best choice for hot tub sanitation.
Spas using the new in.clear™ system need very little maintenance, and
in.clear™ can be easily installed on new or existing spas.

Warnings!
Important safety instructions
• In.clear™ must be used only with BromiCharge™ Sodium Bromine
Salt that is registered or scheduled under Registration No. 29628 Pest
Control Product Act - Canada.
• Read and follow this manual carefully and make sure to save it
for later.
• This manual contains important information on in.clear's installation,
use and safety recommendations. It is your responsibility to install
and use your in.clear™ unit safely.
• In.clear™ must be connected to a circuit protected by a ground fault
interrupter device (GFCI) in North America or residual current divice
(RCD) having a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30
mA in Europe.
• Make sure all electrical power is off before installing the in.clear™
unit. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order
to avoid a hazard.
• Use only an electrical cord in good conditions to power in.clear™.
• Always clean or replace your filter cartridges at regular intervals,
otherwise part of the bromine generated by in.clear™ will only serve
to oxidize the dirt accumulated in the filter.
warnings
• Do NOT add any other sanitation chemicals in the spa other than
BromiCharge™.
• Operating the in.clear™ at reduced BromiCharge™ levels will shorten
the life of the cell.
• Do not open the in.clear™ unit; there are no serviceable parts inside.
• Disposal of the product: the in.clear™ unit must be disposed
of separately in accordance with the local waste disposal
legislation in force.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children)
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with
the appliance.

7
in.clear ™
• The appliance must be installed in a location that is inaccessible to
a person in the bath or spa and must be located or fixed so that it
cannot fall into the bath or spa.
• The appliance is not intended for submersion but may be installed
within the spa zone.
• A means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed wiring
in accordance with the wiring rules.
• To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to operate
this device.
• It is the responsibility of the user to test the spa water regularly to
ensure that adequate amounts of bromine are generated to achieve
proper sanitizer levels.
• Heavy spa usage may require higher bromine output to maintain
proper free available bromine residuals.
• Maintaining overly high BromiCharge™ and bromine levels above
recommended range can contribute to corrosion of spa equipment
and may damage components of the spa.
• Do NOT add any other sanitation chemicals in the spa other than
BromiCharge™.
Warnings!
• Disconnect all UV sanitation devices.
• Check the expiry date of the test kit as test results may be inaccurate
if used after that date.
• Follow all aspects of the local and National Electrical Code(s) when
installing the in.clear™ Automatic Bromine Generator.
• People with a medical condition should consult a physician before
entering spa water.
• Women who are pregnant should NOT enter the spa.
• Maximum spa water usage temperature is 40°C. Bathing in spa water
at 40°C should not exceed 15 minutes.
• For proper sanitation, Spas must be completely drained periodically.
The number of days between COMPLETE SPA DRAINAGE is equal
to the volume of the Spas water in liters, divided by 10 times the
maximun number of daily spa users. Refill spa with water and repeat
DIRECTION FOR USE of the device.
• In.clear™ is meant for a covered spa NOT swimming pools.
• Users should always shower before entering a spa.

in.clear ™ bromine benefits
Bromine in a spa!
Bacteria requires a certain period of time before forming into micro
colonies and becoming attached to a surface. Rapid elimination
of bacteria is a key element in the proper maintenance of the spa
water. In.clear™ achieves this while oxidizing odors and reducing
eye irritation. In.clear™ enhances the clarity and quality of spa water.
For bathers this translates into a more enjoyable warm water therapy
experience.
How in.clear™ works!
When BromiCharge™ is added to the water, it separates into sodium
ions and bromide ions. As the water passes through the in.clear™
bromine generator, a low-voltage source supplies a current that
electrolytically reduces the bromine ions into bromine which reacts
with the water molecules to form free bromine. Bromine is known to
be a highly effective bactericide and algaecide. This process releases
bromide ions back into the water for continuous recycling until the
the spa is emptied. It is important to note that the amount of bromine
needed will vary in direct proportion to the number of bathers in the
spa (bather load).
Effects of bromine
• Bromine destroys waterborne bacteria.
• Bromine destroys algae in water (e.g. Black, Green, Mustard).
• Bromine swiftly eliminates the presence of organic matter left
behind by spa users (oil, sweat, dead skin cells).
• Because bromine doesn’t contain calcium, it can be used to
sanitize hard water without increasing the calcium hardness.
• Bromamines are much less likely than chlorine to cause skin
irritation. This makes them more suitable for use in the higher
temperatures of spa baths.

in.clear ™keypad installation
Installing the in.k200™
The keypad should be installed directly onto the spa (or very
close to it) so that it is easily accessible to the user.
• To install the in.k200™, drill two 25 mm (1”) diameter holes at
67 mm (2 5/8”) from center to center as illustrated.
• Cut out the material between the two holes (see illustration).
• Clean the installation surface and peel the adhesive gasket from the
back of the keypad.
• Insert keypad and align it correctly, then ensure it's properly glued by
gently pressing evenly on the entire surface.
If the keypad is equipped with an optional holder plate remove the
two wing nuts in the back of the keypad and remove the mounting
bracket.
Insert the keypad into opening you have cut out. Put the mounting
bracket and the wing nuts back on their respective bolts and fix the
keypad securely in place (see illustration above).
Note: It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that no obstructions
(cables, piping, etc.) are present below the deck at the drill hole
location.
Note: If the installation location is not perfectly even (e.g. wood
surface), make a silicone joint between the installation location and the
back of the unit to ensure a proper seal around it.

Skirt mount installation
For a skirt mount installation the keypad should be installed directly
on a spa panel so that it is easily accessible to the user.Insure that
the keypad control is located accordingly.
Drill from the finished side of the spa to prevent chipping
of the surface. Start by pilot drilling the hole centers using a 3 mm
(1/8”) drill bit. Using the appropriate hole saw slowly drill two
25 mm (1”) diameter holes at 67 mm (2 5/8”) from center to center
as illustrated.
Cut out the material between the two holes (see illustration above).
Clean the installation surface and route the keypad cable from the wall
cutout to the in.clear™ unit. (continues on next page).
