6.1. Important preliminary precautions

I
Before installing the equipment, the following instructions must be followed :
• The treatment capacity of the equipment must be appropriate for the volume of the pool to be treated, the
number of people using the pool, the presence of nearby equipment (overflow, reflecting pool, slide, etc.) and
the weather conditions where the equipment is installed.
• Use water from the mains water supply. Do not use water of natural origin (rainwater, run-off, ponds, lakes or
boreholes), as this may cause premature deterioration of the electrolytic cell.
• Do not use any anti-algae products containing copper or other metals, as this may cause premature
deterioration of the electrolytic cell.
• Check that the filtration pump and filter are in good condition and working correctly. Also check the flow rate
of the filtration pump, the capacity of the filter, and the outer diameter of pipework (either 50 or 63 mm).
• The equipment must be installed in a closed, dry and sufficiently ventilated room which is protected from
water sprays and UV rays. The temperature inside this room must not exceed 40°C.
→ If these premises are located in a country with a hot and humid climate, they must be air conditioned.
→ If these premises are located in a country with a temperate climate, they must be equipped with forced
ventilation.
• Determine where exactly each component will be positioned, taking into account its size and the length of its
power cables. Also anticipate extra space around the equipment, in order to facilitate access for maintenance.
• The pH corrector drum must be installed a safe distance away from any electrical device or any other
chemicals. Failure to follow these instructions may lead to abnormal oxidation of the metal parts, possibly
resulting in complete device failure.
• Be very careful to ensure that the various components are correctly positioned in relation to each other in
accordance with the fluid direction, as indicated in the installation diagram.
Install the cell and accessories holder in a horizontal position first, then all other devices for water treatment,
cleaning or heating (just before flow out into the pool).
To protect property and people, the cell and accessories holder must be installed in series (and not in parallel),
and the cell must be positioned just after the accessories holder.
If constraints concerning the filtration heat contactor make it necessary to install components in a way that
differs from the installation diagram, ensure that this assembly is approved by a professional. You must also
install the flow sensor (see the overview of the "Parameters Sensors" menu in chapter 10). The same applies
when intentionally deciding to install components in a different way, for example in order to position the cell
and accessories holder in a bypass configuration.
• A sufficient flow of water must be maintained in the cell when connected to a power supply. If the filtration
pump has a variable flow, you must install a flow sensor so that electrolysis automatically stops when flow is
insufficient. The electronics unit is fitted with a socket to connect a flow sensor. Enable the flow sensor
function (see the description of the "Parameters Sensors" menu in chapter 10).
• All probes must be installed vertically and on the level (not tilted) to ensure proper operation.
• The water pressure in the cell must not exceed 3 bar. All hydraulic components installed must be able to
tolerate water pressures likely to be encountered as part of normal use. There should be no leakage from any
part, including pipework.
