EcoMaster
INTRODUCTION TO ADVANCED OXIDATION PROCESSING
The EcoMaster system produces Ozone when air is drawn across a hybrid UV and VUV lamp, converting air to
Ozone and Hydroxyls. A Dynamic Venturi Injector is inserted on the return line, by-passing water back into the return line of the pool which
creates suction that draws the Ozone and Hydroxyls from the hybrid lamp chamber. The static mixer combines water, Ozone, and
Hydroxyls in a scrambled flow. Water is then irradiated by Germicidal UV-C, which converts Ozone to Hydroxyl Radicals and Peroxides
through Advanced Oxidation Processing. Contaminates are destroyed by intense Germicidal UV-C, Ozone and Hydroxyl Radicals, using up
the Ozone and adding Oxidation Reduction Potential and residual sanitation to the water returned to the pool.
It is operated automatically by connecting the Prozone system directly to the circulation pump or plugging into a timer. A check valve is
employed to prevent water back up in the event of system failure. A siphon loop is recommended for added backpressure resistance. The
system should run 8-12 hours per day for good results; 24 hours per day for optimum water clarity and minimum chemical usage.
Although Advanced Oxidation Processing (AOP) is mainly thought of as a sanitizer, it acts primarily as an oxidizer in the pool environment.
In a typical pool, using Chlorine only, up to 90 percent of the Chlorine may be used up in reactions unrelated to disinfection. The byproducts
of these reactions are Combined Chlorines. Combined chlorines are the cause of eye irritation, odor, and the other unpleasant side effects
of Chlorination. When AOP is used, it oxidizes a large portion of the contaminants (usually referred to as bather load) which results in the
formation of Combined Chlorines. The result is that more Chlorine is available for disinfection and less Chlorine is required to maintain the
pool. Ozone also provides some disinfection, but an Ozone residual cannot be established, so the use of Chlorine or Bromine is always
recommended. Baquacil may also be used in conjunction with the Prozone system for water sanitation. Refer to the Baquacil manual for
shocking instructions.
PREPARING FOR INSTALLATION
1. Check for and correct all leaks in plumbing.
2. Balance the pH.
3. Backwash the filter on retrofit installation.
4. Shock the pool. The use of Calcium Hypochlorite is recommended, or hydrogen peroxide if Baquacil is used.
5. CAUTION: Make sure voltage is the same as prescribed on the side of the Prozone Ozone Generator.
WATER CHEMISTRY
The table below summarizes the levels that are recommended by The Association of Pool and Spa Professionals (APSP). It is important to
maintain these levels in order to prevent corrosion or scaling and to ensure maximum enjoyment of the pool. Test your water periodically.
Take a water sample in to be professionally tested by a Pool and Spa Professional at least once a month. See our web site for more
information on Basic Pool Water Chemistry.
Free Chlorine 0.5 - 1.5 ppm
Calcium Hardness 60 - 400 ppm
Metals 0 ppm
Nitrates / Phosphates < 30 ppm
pH 7.2 - 7.6
Alkalinity 80 - 120 ppm
TDS < 1,000
Cyanuric Acod 30 - 70 ppm

INSTALLATION ASSEMBLY
USING P71 Bypass kit
Requires 7/8"
Hole Saw
Fig 1
1. Turn pump OFF. Ensure line restrictions between filter/heater and pool returns are removed.
2. Locate section of existing plumbing in which you choose to install the ENTRANCE leg of the bypass. Location should be in any
accessible area after the pump, but before the filter.
3. Mount Saddle Clamp Top & Bottom assembly without Bushing, (this will be used as a guide for your installation hole). Note: If pipe is
1 ½”, saddle adapters will be used. (See Fig 1)
4. Drill a 7/8” hole through one wall of the pipe, using power drill, being careful not to drill too deep to avoid penetrating the
opposite side of the plumbing.
5. Locate section of existing plumbing in which you choose to install the EXIT leg of the bypass. Location should be in any
accessible area after the filter and heater (if equipped).
6. Repeat steps 3 & 4.
7. Remove both Saddle Clamp Assemblies.
8. Using components listed, install first Saddle Clamp Assembly on Exit bypass location with the ½” x 3” PVC pipe mounted in the
Saddle Clamp Bushing. Tighten both screws for compression seal, glue is not required for a water tight seal.
9. Using components listed, install the second Saddle Clamp Assembly on Entrance bypass location with the ½” x 3” PVC pipe
mounted in the Saddle Clamp Bushing. Tighten both screws for compression seal.
10. Cut a 6" piece of ¾" hose and secure it to the Injector Outlet with a 1¼" Metal Hose Clamp.
11. Attach the other end of this hose to the ECOMASTER with a 1¼" Metal Hose Clamp.
12. Mount the ECOMASTER on a wall or surface at least 1 foot above maximum water level (as seen above)to prevent water from
contacting the electrical equipment. Unit orientation should be mounted horizontally. Select a location that is accessible to the
entrance and exit locations chosen in steps 2 & 4.
13. Connect ¾” Hose to the end to the fitting on the ENTRANCE side of the bypass, (after the pump, before the filter), and
secure with a 1¼" Metal Hose Clamp.
14. Connect the other end of the hose to the INLET side of the Injector and secure with a 1¼" Metal Hose Clamp.
15. Attach one end of the remaining ¾” hose to the OUTLET side of the ECOMASTER and secure with a metal clamp.
16. Attach other end of ¾” hose to the fitting on the EXIT side of the bypass, (after the filter/heater), and secure with a 1¼" Metal Clamp.
17. Cut a 6" length of ¼" Polybraid Hose and connect one end to the open ozone port (Marked #1) on the Venturi Injector and the other
end to the OUTLET side of the Check Valve, (Make sure you can blow air through the Check Valve towards the Injector port). Secure
both ends with black plastic clamps.
18. Connect the remaining section of ¼" Polybraid Hose to the INLET side of the Check Valve and the other end to the barb on the side
of the ECOMASTER. Secure both ends with black plastic clamps. Route the ¼" Polybraided Hose as shown in the above diagram
and verify that it is above the Water Line
19. Electrical Installation: Your Prozone ECOMASTER System is designed to operate on either 120 or 240 VAC, 50/60 HZ. Wire
Prozone Ozone Generator system to circulation pump switch or timer. Prozone system and circulation pump should be
started simultaneously. Use N.E.C. or local code grounding and installation procedures for swimming pool equipment.
20. There should be no more than 10 PSI of pressure at the bypass exit of the return line.
NOTE Regarding Ball Valves: If your filtration system uses a Diatomaceous Earth (DE) or cartridge filter, install a ¾” Ball Valve (not
included) in the ¾” Hose on the output side of the ½” x 3” PVC. This allows the bypass to be closed when back flushing or adding DE. If
adequate pressure differential cannot be achieved with traditional by-pass, it may be necessary to install a Ball Valve (not included) in the
main line between the Entrance and Exit of the bypass, (entire installation is moved after filter or heater if equipped). The Ball Valve will
need to be adjusted to ensure adequate flow through the bypass. Ball valve should never be closed completely, which may damage the
system.
