OPERATION

TheAqua Rite Pro is an automatic chlorine generation system for pool or spa sanitiza-

tion. The operation requires a low concentration of salt (sodium chloride) in the pool

water. These levelsarelowenoughthatitnormallywill not be tasted. TheAqua Rite Pro

automatically sanitizes your pool by converting the salt into free chlorine which kills

bacteria and algae in the pool. Chlorine will revert back to sodium chloride after killing

bacteria. These reactions will continuously recycle virtually eliminating the need to add

sanitizing chemicals to your pool. The only time you may need to add more salt to the

pool is when water is replenished due to backwashing, draining, or splashing (not

evaporation).

The Aqua Rite Pro is designed to handle the purification needs of most residential

swimming pools up to 40,000 gallons (150,000 liters), or the needs of most commercial

pools up to 25,000 gallons (95,000 liters). Check local codes for other restrictions. The

actual amount of chlorination required to properly sanitize a pool varies due to bather

load, rainfall, temperature, and the pool's cleanliness.

Aqua Rite Pro chlorine generators operating with software version 1.10 or later are

designed to use one of 3 different chlorinator cells that are available from your autho-

rized Goldline dealer. These cells are not included with theAqua Rite Pro and must be

purchased before installation. Choose the appropriate cell based on the size of your

pool. The models are shown below:

T-CELL-15- for pools up to 40,000 gallons

T-CELL-9 - for pools up to 25,000 gallons

T-CELL-3 - for pools up to 15,000 gallons

Note that the installation and mounting requirements are the same for all models.

TheAquaRiteProcanbeusedwiththe optional GoldlineAQL-CHEM to provide a fully

integrated chemistry solution for your pool. With theAQL-CHEM installed, theAqua

Rite Pro senses the pool's ORP and pH levels and automatically generates the correct

amount of chlorine to keep your pool properly sanitized. The Aqua Rite Pro can also

controlpHby introducingacidorCO2intothepool usinganAQL-CHEM2 (120V),AQL-

CHEM2-240 (240V) or other dispensing device requiring 120VAC or 240VAC on/off

control. The Aqua Rite Pro and AQL-CHEM products offer the user a complete auto-

mated system controlling both sanitization and pH balance.

NOTE: Goldline does not recommend using the Aqua Rite Pro to generate bro-

mine.

NOTE: Before installing this product as part of a saline water purification system in a

pool or spa using natural stone for coping or for immediately adjacent patios/decking, a

qualified stone installation specialist should be consulted regarding the appropriate

type, installation, sealant (if any) and maintenance of stone used around a saline pool

with electronic chlorine generator in your particular location and circumstances.

NOTE: The use of dry acid (sodium bisulfate) to adjust pool pH is discouraged espe-

cially in arid regions where pool water is subject to excessive evaporation and is not

commonly diluted with fresh water. Dry acid can cause a buildup of by-products that

can damage your chlorinator cell.

TROUBLESHOOTING

CheckSystemIndicator

The “CHECK SYSTEM” LED will alert you when theAqua Rite Pro detects any of the

following conditions that are abnormal and require attention for optimal operation of

your pool. Press “<“ or “>” to view all of the existing “Check System” conditions.

•Inspect Cell -- For optimum operation, you will need to inspect the Aqua Rite Pro

chlorinator cell approximately every 3 months and clean the cell if necessary. The

AquaRiteProwill automaticallyremindyouwhen it istimeanddisplay “Inspect Cell,

+ to reset” as part of the rotating Default Menu. Clean the cell (see instructions, page

12) and then press the “+” button during the “Inspect Cell” display to reset the timer.

•LowSalt/MineralsorVeryLowSalt/Minerals--When the salt is too low theAqua

Rite Pro will generate less chlorine and the life of the cell is degraded. Check the cell

and clean if necessary before adding salt.

Water Chemistry

The table below summarizes the levels that are recommended by The Association of

Pool and Spa Professionals (APSP). The only special requirements for the Aqua Rite

Pro are the salt level and stabilizer. It is important to maintain these levels in order to

prevent corrosion or scaling and to ensure maximum enjoyment of the pool. Test your

waterperiodically. YourauthorizedAqua Rite Pro dealerormostpoolstorescanprovide

you with the chemicals and procedures to adjust the water chemistry. Be sure to tell the

pool store that you are using an Aqua RitePro chlorine generator.

Saturationindex

The saturation index (Si) relates to the calcium and alkalinity in the water and is an

indicator of the pool water "balance". Your water is properly balanced if the Si is 0 ±.2.

If the Si is below -0.2, the water is corrosive and plaster pool walls will be dissolved into

the water. If the Si is above +0.2, scaling and staining will occur. Use the chart below to

determine the saturation index.

Goldline Aqua Rite Chlorinator

TheAqua Rite Pro can control one or more GoldlineAqua Rite chlorinators when addi-

tional sanitizing capacity is required. A4 wire connection is used to communicate to the

Aqua Rite(s) and can be wired up to 500' apart. Any outdoor rated 4 conductor cable can

be used. Refer to the wiring diagram below and on the following page for proper wiring

connection to the Aqua Rite. NOTE: There must be only 1 "primary" unit. All other

Aqua Rite units must be configured as "secondary".

TheAqua Rite(s) power inputmust be wired to the LOADSIDE of the filter pump timer

(the same as theAqua Rite Pro).

Optional pH Dispense Wiring

Requires the use of a Goldline AQL-CHEM sensing device and an AQL-CHEM2, AQL-

CHEM2-240 or other pH dispensing device requiring 120VAC or 240VAC on/off con-

trol. Ascrew terminal block located on the enclosure surface below the transformer is

providedforconnectiontoanAQL-CHEM2,AQL-CHEM2-240 or other pH related dis-

pensing device (peristaltic pumps, solenoid valves, etc.). After properly installing and

configuring theAQL-CHEM and the pH dispensing device, theAqua Rite Pro will turn

on the dispensing device when pH correction is required.

IMPORTANT: The dispensing device must be powered by the same voltage used to

power theAqua Rite Pro. Configure the output voltage to the pH device by moving the

wiring connections on the mainboard as shown on page 18.

Example: If an AQL-CHEM2-240 (240VAC) will be used, the Aqua Rite Pro must be

poweredby240VAC. Connectthe240VACpigtail supplied with theAQL-CHEM to the

AquaRitePro’s terminal blockasshownin the diagram.TheAQL-CHEM2-240will then

plug into the pigtail’s 240VAC receptacle. Refer to the AQL-CHEM manual for more

detailed information.

SaltLevel

Use the chart on page 4 to determine how much salt in pounds or (Kgs) need to be added

to reach the recommended levels. Use the equations below (measurements are in feet/

gallons and meters/liters) if pool size is unknown.

The ideal salt level is between 2700-3400 ppm (parts per million) with 3200 ppm being

optimal. If the level is low, determine the number of gallons in the pool and add salt

according to the chart on page 4. Alow salt level will reduce the efficiency of theAqua

Rite Pro and result in low chlorine production. Ahigh salt level can cause theAqua Rite

Pro to shutdown and may begin to give a salty taste to your pool (generally, the salt will

begin to be tasted at a level of about 3500-4000 ppm). The salt in your pool/spa is

constantly recycled and the loss of salt throughout the swimming season should be

small. This loss is due primarily to the addition of water because of splashing,

backwashing, or draining (because of rain). Salt is not lost due to evaporation.

Type of Salt to Use

Itisimportanttouseonlysodium chloride (NaCl) salt that is greater than99%pure. This

is common food quality or water softener salt and is usually available in 40-80 lb. bags

labeled "Coarse Solar Salt". It is also acceptable to use water conditioning salt pellets,

however, it will take longer for them to dissolve. Do not use rock salt, salt with yellow

prussiate of soda, salt with anti-caking additives, or iodized salt.

HowtoAdd or RemoveSalt

For new plaster pools, wait 10-14 days before adding salt to allow the plaster to cure.

Turn the circulating pump on and add salt directly into the pool. Brush the salt around

to speed up the dissolving process--do not allow salt to pile up on the bottom of the

pool. Run the filter pump for 24 hours with the suction coming from the main drain (use

pool vac if there is no main drain) to allow the salt to evenly disperse throughout the

pool. The salt display may take 24 hours to respond to the change in salt concentration.

The only way to lower the salt concentration is to partially drain the pool and refill with

fresh water.

Always check stabilizer (cyanuric acid), when checking salt. These levels will most

likely decline together. Use the chart on page 5 to determine how much stabilizer must

be added to raise the level to 80 ppm.

Electrolytic Cell and Flow Switch:

The electrolytic cell and flow switch cables are terminated with connectors which plug

into theAqua Rite Pro for easy attachment and removal. The door of theAqua Rite Pro

must be open and the front panel removed to access the cell cable and flow switch

connectors. Route the flow switch cable through one of the knockouts.A cutout in the

enclosure is provided for the cell cable. The diagram below shows the location of these

connections.

If an AQL-CHEM kit will be used, take into consideration the space necessary for

mounting the unit as well as running the plumbing lines from theAQL-CHEM's probe

cell to the pool plumbing. Refer to theAQL-CHEM manual for specific mounting in-

structions.

Plumbing

Ensure that the Aqua Rite Pro installation does not constitute a cross connection with

the local potable water supply. Consult local plumbing codes.

The Aqua Rite Pro is packaged with a flow switch and cell unions. The cell must be

purchased separately. Refer to page 1 for information about available chlorinator cells.

The flow switch and cell should be plumbed in the return line to the pool/spa. The

preferred installation is after (downstream) all the pool equipment (filter, heater, solar,

etc.). The electrolytic cell and flow switch tee fitting are designed to be plumbed into 2"

(51mm) PVC pipe. Adapters (not included) can be used for systems with 1½" (38 mm)

plumbing.

For proper plumbing, refer to the overview diagram on page 13. Alternate configura-

tions #1 shows the flow switch can also be in front of the cell. Configurations #2 and #3

allow for chlorination of both the pool and spa during spa spillover operation, but

prevent overchlorination of the spa during "spa only" operation. Never use configura-

tion #4.

Flow Switch: IMPORTANT:There must be at least a 12" (25cm) straight pipe run

before (upstream) the flow switch. If the switch is plumbed after the

cell, the cell can by counted as the 12" (25cm) of straight pipe. To

ensure proper operation, verify that the arrow on the flow switch

(located on top of gray hex) points in the direction of water flow.

and the filter pump is running.

STOP: When in STOP mode, the Aqua Rite Pro is prevented from energizing the

electrolytic cell. In this position there is no chlorine generation. NOTE: To service

any of the pool equipment or theAqua Rite Pro, the power must be turned off at the

circuitbreaker.

SUPERCHLORINATE: (if optionalAQL-CHEMsensingisNOTused)When you

have an abnormally high bather load, a large amount of rain, a cloudy water condi-

tion, or any other condition which needs a large amount of purification to be intro-

duced, SUPER CHLORINATE should be selected. This electronically “superchlori-

nates” (shocks) the water for a user selectable period of 1-96 hours (filter pump must

be on during this time) or until the power has been turned off, whichever comes first.

The Aqua Rite Pro will automatically revert back to the previous desired output %

INSTALLATION

Installation must be performed in accordance with Local and NEC codes.

Preparing Pool/Spa Water

Refer to page 2 for recommended chemical levels. The pool's chemistry must be bal-

anced BEFORE activating the Aqua Rite Pro. NOTE: If the pool does not have new

water, add 1 quart (1 liter) of metal remover and 1 quart (1 liter) of non-copper based

algaecide to the pool, per manufacturer's instructions. This ensures a quick, troublefree

transfer to the Aqua Rite Pro system.

MountingtheAquaRite Pro Control

The Aqua Rite Pro is contained in a raintight enclosure that is suitable for outdoor

mounting. The control must be mounted a minimum of 5 ft. (1.5 meters) horizontal

distance (or more, if local codes require) from the pool/spa.

The control is designed to mount horizontally on a flat surface with the knockouts

facing downward. Because the enclosure also acts as a heat sink (disperses heat from

inside the box), it is important not to block the four sides of the control. Do not mount

Aqua Rite Pro inside a panel or tight enclosed area.

InformationMenu

For the chlorinator to be operating, several conditions must exist: the

filter pump must be running, the flow switch must be detecting flow,

the chlorinator setting must be set greater than 0%, the water

temperature at the cell must be between 50ºF and 140ºF, and the salt

level must be within the operating range. If any of these conditions

are not met, the chlorinator diagnostic display will tell you the reason.

It’s possible to have more than one reason, in which case after you

rectify what was displayed the first time, a second display will appear.

Ifthecurrent(amps)displayis 0.00A, then the chlorinator is operating

normally but is in the off part of its normal operating cycle. Simply

press either the “+” or “-“ key to start a new cycle.

The Aqua Rite Pro automatically stops generating when the pool water temperatures

drops below 50ºF. This is usually not a problem because bacteria and algae stop grow-

ing at this temperature. You can override this low temperature cutoff by using the Super

Chlorinate function for a day.

Preventoverchlorinationduringcoldweather: Check chlorine levels periodically. Most

pools require less chlorine during cold weather and the desired output % setting should

be lowered accordingly.

MaintainingtheAquaRite ProSystem

To maintain maximum performance, it is recommended that you open and visually in-

spect the cell every 3 months or after cleaning your filter. TheAqua Rite Pro will remind

you to do this by displaying the message “Inspect/Clean Cell” after approximately 500

hours of operation.

The Aqua Rite Pro electrolytic cell has a self cleaning feature incorporated into the

electronic control’s logic. In most cases this self cleaning action will keep the cell

working at optimum efficiency. In areas where water is hard (high mineral content) and

in pools where the water chemistry has been allowed to get "out of balance", the cell

may require periodic cleaning.

Servicingand CleaningtheAquaRite ProCell

Turn off power to the Aqua Rite Pro before removing the electrolytic cell. Once re-

moved, look inside the cell and inspect for scale formation (light colored crusty or flaky

deposits) on the plates and for any debris which has passed through the filter and

caught on the plates. If no deposits are visible, reinstall. If deposits are seen, use a high

pressure garden hose and try to flush the scale off. If this is not successful, use a plastic

or wood tool (do not use metal as this will scratch the coating off the plates) and scrape

deposits off of plates. Note that a buildup on the cell indicates that there is an unusually

high calcium level in the pool (old pool water is usually the cause). If this is not

corrected, you may to have to periodically clean the cell. The simplest way to avoid this

is to bring the pool chemistry to the recommended levels as specified.

Mild Acid Washing: Use only in severe cases where flushing and scraping will not

removethemajorityofdeposits. To acid wash,turnoffpowertoAqua Rite Pro. Remove

cell from piping. In a clean plastic container, mix a 4:1 solution of water to muriatic acid

(one gallon of water to one quart of muriatic acid). ALWAYSADDACID TO WATER -

NEVERADD WATER TO ACID. Be sure to wear rubber gloves and appropriate eye

protection. The level of the solution in the container should just reach the top of the cell

so that the wire harness compartment is NOT submerged. It may be helpful to coil the

wiring before immersing the cell. The cell should soak for a few minutes and then rinse

with a high pressure garden hose. If any deposits are still visible, repeat soaking and

rinsing. Replace cell and inspect again periodically.

Winterizing

TheAqua Rite Pro electrolytic cell and flow detection switch will be damaged by freez-

ing water just as your pool plumbing would. In areas of the country which experience

severe or extended periods of freezing temperatures, be sure to drain all water from the

pump, filter, and supply and return lines before any freezing conditions occur. The

electronic control is capable of withstanding any winter weather and should not be

removed.

SpringStart-up

DO NOT turn theAqua Rite Pro on, until the pool water chemistry has been brought to

the proper levels. This information can be found on page 2.

The Aqua Rite Pro periodically reverses the polarity of the voltage

applied to the cell in order to automatically clean off any calcium

deposits that may have built up on the cell. It is important that you

check the chlorinator operation in both polarities. To do this, press

either the “+” or “-“ buttons and the chlorinator will turn off, wait for

15 seconds and then turn on in the opposite polarity.

Operation

Assuming that the water chemical levels are in the recommended range, there are

three factors that you can control which directly contribute to the amount of chlo-

rine theAqua Rite Pro will generate:

1. filter run time each day (hours)

2. the desired output % setting or ORPsetting (when usingAQL-CHEM)

3. the amount of salt in the pool

The filter pump timer should be set so that entire volume of pool water passes

through the filter each day. For pools with high chlorine demand, the timer may

have to be set longer to generate enough chlorine.

If optional AQL-CHEM sensing is NOTused. To find the optimum desired output

% setting, start at approximately 50%. Test the chlorine level every few days and

adjust the setting up or down accordingly. It usually takes 2-3 adjustments to find

the ideal setting for your pool/spa and after that, it should only take minor, infre-

quent adjustments. Because the chlorine demand of the pool increases with tem-

perature, most people find they have to adjust the desired output up at the peak of

the summer and down during the colder periods.

NOTE: After the ideal setting has been found, you may need to raise the setting

when the pool water temperature increases significantly, when there is higher than

normal bather load or when your chlorinator cell ages. You may need to lower the

setting when the pool water temperature decreases significantly or there are long

periods of inactivity.
