4.2. Installation of the electrolysis cell
The electrolysis cell is made of a transparent polymer in whose interior the electrodes are placed. The electrolysis cell must be always
installed indoors and after the pool filter, and after any heating equipment that may be present (heat pumps, control systems, etc.).
The installation of the cell should allow easy access to the installed electrodes by the user. It is highly recommended to install the electrolysis
cell VERTICALLY, in a place of the pipe that can be easily isolated from the rest of the installation by two valves, so that the tasks of
maintenance can be carried out with no need of partial or total draining of the swimming pool.
Where the cell is installed on a by-pass (recommended option), a valve to regulate the flow must be introduced. Prior to installation, please
consider the following commentaries might be considered:

1. Flow direction marked in the cell
must be respected. (ver. apartado 9).
Recirculation system must guarantee
the minimum flow stated in the Table of
Technical Specifications
model (see Section 8)
2. The system flow detector activates if
there is not recirculation (flow) of water
through the cell or if flow is very low. If
electrolysis gases are not properly
for each removed through the electrolysis cell,
the generated gas bubble electrically
isolates
(electronic detection). Therefore, when
locating the electrodes in the cell, the
level probe (auxiliary electrode) will
have to be located in the higher area of
the cell. The safest orientation is shown
in the
diagram.

3. WARNING: if the in-out valves of the
electrolysis cell are closed
simultaneously, the flow detector (gas
detector) will not work correctly, with
the consequent risk of cell breakdown.
Although this situation is extremely
unusual, it can be easily avoided once
the equipment has been installed, by
locking at opened position the return
valve to the swimming pool, so it
cannot accidentally be manipulated.
