staining, etching and corrosion of metals. High Total Alkalinity will cause constantly high
pH levels.
To lower, add HYDROCHLORIC ACID (a little at a time). To raise, add SODIUM
BICARBONATE.
3. SALT LEVELS:
The salt level MUST NEVER BE LESS THAN 4000 ppm (4.0 g/l). The ideal operating
salt level is 4500ppm (4,5 g/l). Operating the Unit with too little salt in the pool will
cause damage to your Cell. For MES units salinity must not exceed 7000ppm. Eco Salt
chlorinators can be manufactured to operate in Sea Water, consult your local EcoSalt
Dealer for more information.
Salt is the essential element by which your Unit operates. Not enough salt means not
enough chlorine - this simple rule governs the total operation of your EcoSalt®, and
insufficient salt will damage your Cell.
Low salt levels will destroy the coating on the cell's Anode materials and will void
all Warranty.
The EcoSalt has a built in warning system to minimise damage resulting from insufficient
salt levels, however, the ultimate responsibility is on the owner to ensure adequate salt
levels are maintained all year round.
NOTE: Swimming pools contain water with a low level of salinity, free chlorine and other
compounds. Any materials in contact with the pool water should be suitable for this
environment. MONARCH POOL SYSTEMS can not be held responsible for damages
that occur to the materials of other products that come into contact with the water of the
pool.
4. RUNNING TIMES & CHLORINE PRODUCTION:
These instructions cover EcoSalt in residential use only.
If you run your chlorinator for 24 hours a day, or for long periods, the Cell life will be
reduced dramatically. It is important that the correct model EcoSalt has been installed on
your pool. Many models are available to cope with small courtyard pools up to
commercial applications. (Consult your local EcoSalt Dealer for more information).
The EcoSalt must be run daily to generate sufficient chlorine to sanitise the pool. During
Summer this is usually minimum eight hours per day, preferably in two periods -
between 6.00 and 8.00am and between 5.00 and 11.00pm. Night time is preferable
because chlorine dissipates rapidly in direct sunlight. If these running times are
