STABILISER
As previously mentioned, sunlight rapidly dissipates the amount of free chlorine in your pool. Chlorine stabilizer greatly
reduces this effect. Without stabilizer, you may need to run your Chlorinator and filtration system up to 16 hours per day
or longer!!!
Keep the Stabilizer reading between 30 and 60ppm.
pH Level
You should keep you pH level between 7.0 and 7.4 for fiberglass pools and 7.2 to 7.6 for other pools.

Total Alkalinity

The ideal range is between 80 and 120 ppm.

Salt Level

Although salt is not consumed by the Chlorinator, salt is lost during backwashing, and when your pool overflows due to rain
or splashing. The correct salt level is important to cell life and the effective operation of your chlorinator. Salt level should
be maintained around 6,000ppm but should never be allowed to fall below 4,000ppm.
A typical pool of around 50,000 litres (13,000 USG) requires 300kg (660 Ibs) of salt to initially set-up the pool to 6,000ppm.
A low salt level warning is indicated on your CTX PROFESSIONAL E-SERIESChlorinator if the salt level drops. If Low Salt is
indicated, check again in 24 hours and then if it is still indicated, add 50kg (110 Ibs) bags of salt to the shallow end of your
pool. Run the filtration system for approx. 6 hours to help mix the salt in the pool. It can take up to a day for the salt to fully
dissolve.
If the low salt light is still on, then you should get your pool water tested. If the Salinity is above 6000ppm then you may
need to have your Chlorinator checked.
Warning:
Never add salt directly to the skimmer box. This practice should be avoided as it allows very high
concentrations of salt to be passed through your filtration and other pool equipment.

10.0 CHLORINATOR MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by CTX PROFESSIONAL or its service agent or a similarly qualified
person in order to avoid a hazard.
Warning:
Operating the Chlorinator with less than 3000 ppm of dissolved salt in the water may cause damage to the cell
and will void the warranty. Never start chlorinator, until the correct quantity of salt has been added and dissolved in your
pool water.

Cell Maintenance

Your CTX PROFESSIONAL E-SERIES Chlorinator has an automatic cleaning feature that under normal conditions, will keep
the cell plates clear of deposits of salt and calcium.
E-SERIES 15/25/35 cells have a negative charge sensor that monitors the flow and salt levels of the water. This sensor is
designed to be fail safe. As it is negative charge deposits of calcium or other debris may be deposited on it and cause it to
indicate a low salt or no flow condition. Should a low salt condition be indicated, have your salt level checked at your local
pool shop. If the low salt condition persists, or a no flow condition is indicated when the supply pump is operating, you may
need to manually clean your chlorinator Cell (CTX-35).
Cell Cleaning Instructions:
Close applicable valves
-
Disconnect the Chlorinator from the Mains by removing the 3 pin plug
-
Disconnect the cell wires
-
Undo the barrel nuts connecting the cell to your filtration system
-
Turn the cell upside down (inlet and outlet on top) and fill the cell with a mix of 1 part Hydrochloric acid
-
(CTX-35) to 10 parts water and leave standing for a few minutes. As an alternative, you may use an approved
commercial Cell cleaning solution
Repeat if necessary and then rinse well in clean water
-
Re-install the cell ensuring o-rings are correctly located and barrel nuts are tightened to prevent leaks
-
Re-connect cell wires with wing nuts supplied making sure the blue wire is connected to the blue terminal.
-
Incorrect connection may damage your chlorinator control. Tighten wing-nuts to ensure the electrical
connection is sound
Return all valves to their normal positions, re connect power to the Chlorinator and turn on at power point.
-
WARNING: Follow safety instructions provided with the Hydrochloric acid or cleaning solution. When handling
Hydrochloric Acid (CTX-35) the use of eye protection, mask and gloves are highly recommended. Extreme caution should
be taken whenever handling Hydrochloric Acid or Cell Cleaning Solution.

11.0 MAINTENANCE OF YOUR CHRLORINATOR

Maintenance Schedule: Your new product incorporates moving parts and withstands high velocity water with chemicals in it.
Some of these parts will wear in the normal course of use and require regular checks and maintenance. Performing these
checks and maintenance will identify parts that have worn and require repair/replacement before further serious damage is
sustained. A small amount of regular care and attention to your pool equipment will help ensure long life and trouble free
performance.
