With the system that utilises LOW-SALINITY ELECTROLYSIS as the flow of water passes through the titanium cell,
oxidising agents such as OXYGEN, PEROXIDE, HYDROXYLS, OZONE, etc. are generated. This combats, oxidises
and eliminates the organic material present in the water.The generated oxidisers turn back into H2O2 when they reach
thepool.Thesalinityprovidedatstart-up(1.5-2.5g/l)keepsthewaterinperfectconditionwithafreechlorineresiduethat

Electrical consumption
OXILIFEsynchronizedwithFILTRATION
Ensure the electrolysis unit is synchronized with the pool filtration and stops
functioningwhenwatercirculationhasstopped.
TITANIUMCELLconnectionoverheating
Ensure all electrical connections are firmly fixed to avoid false contacts and
subsequent overheating of system components (Especially concerning the
electrolysiscellwithusageabove33A).

INITIAL ADJUSTMENTS
3
Water adjustments
1.Adjust the alkalinity between 90 and 110
ppm.
2.AdjustthePHbetween7,2and7,4
3.Adjust the chlorine between 1 and 1,5
ppm.
SHOULD the water be supplied from a well:
shock chlorinate with Tricloroisocyanuric
acid(2Kg./50m3ofwater)
Adding Salt to the Water
Start up
Add 1,5 to 2,5 Gramm Salt (without Yod) for each litre of water in your swimming pool
(1,5 to 2,5 kg NaCl per m3 Water). Open the bottom valve of your swimming pool and
add the Salt directly to your swimming pool water. Let the circulation pump run during
thefirst24 hoursyourOxilifesystemis workinginordertodissolve theSaltcompletely.
Your Oxilife System will operate without any problems with salt concentrations from
1,5gto50gSaltperlitre.

MAINTENANCE

1-Thepoolmustbevacuumedasusualandtheskimmersemptiedwhenevernecessary.
2-Filter backwashing: with Sugar Valley systems the filter requires only occasional backwashing; once every 20 days should be sufficient (providing the filter pressure does
notexceed1bar,inwhichcaseabackwashmaybenecessary).
3-ADDINGNEW WATER:Alwaysthrough theskimmerssothatthenewwater passesthroughtheOxilifebefore enteringthe pool.Remembertoaddthe necessarysalt:6gr.
peraddedlitreofwater.
4-InwinterCHANGINGTHEPOOLWATERISNOTRECOMMENDABLE.Werecommendthatthesystemruns2-3timesperweek(2-3hrs.perday).
DOSAGE PUMPS: Check regularly to ensure that the container contains liquid to prevent the dosage pump running dry. The dosage pump requires maintenance
(INSTRUCTIONSONBOX).
PH PROBES/REDOX/CONDUCTIVITY: Probes must be cleaned whenever necessary (check every 5-6 months). To clean the probe insert in distilled water (Clear liquid).
Aftereachcleaningtheprobesmustbecalibrated.
General maintenance
VERY IMPORTANT; Ensure that the system is turned off during filter backwashing.
FREE chlorine : 1.0 – 2.0 PPM
pH : 7,1 – 7,5
