Once finished with the installation and programming, starting of PW Basic is carried out.
1.- Close sample taking valve (11)
2.- Open water inlet (1) and outlet (12) valves.
3.- Start filtering pump.
4.- Open valve (9) in order to regulate flow in the analysis chamber, letting water circulate inside and adjust its flow to 30 lts/h
(When the flota top (I) emerges over the signal engraved on the front part of the analysis chamber, flow is 30 lts/h).
5.- Switch dispenser pumps on and choose a work proportion that suits swimming pool volume.
ATENTION! It is essential that when we start PW Basic we have water in the following conditions:
- Clear.
- pH value between 7 - 7.8
- Chlorine value between 1-1.5 ppm OR Bromine value betaween 2-3 ppm
ELECTION OF WORKING VALUES IN THE POOLWATCH BASIC pH / ORGANIC CHLORINE-Br
It is recommended to have the information about the working margins that the legislation allows respecting Chlorine-Br and pH levels
in the place where it is installed. In the case, we recommend to work with low values (close to the 7.2), hence we have a higher
percentage of free chlorine in form of active disinfectant. In case of using bromine it is possible to work with pH's more high places,
even of 7.6.
One recommendation is 7.25 (pH) and 1,25 ppm Cl, or 7.50 (pH) and 3 ppm Br although you will take the final decision according to
the filtering base, quantity of swimmers, etc.
To have a higher precision in the chlorine-bromine reading, it is recommended to make the "ADJUST DPD" in an approximate SP
value to the one we have chosen. If these values are distant one to the other, the Chlorine reading may not be accurate.
We recommend that for the set monitoring you use a photometer PC-Checkit.
9. RECOMMENDATIONS OF IMPORTANCE
-
When the filtering system works with the help of continuous flocculation, you have to take into account to inject the flocculating
after the water connection to the analysis chamber.
-
Do not put any chemical product in the pool, in the skimmers or in the balance tank. (Example: cartridge or tablets flocculant).
these could go directly to the PW Basic and damage seriously their probes and sensors.
When a filter cleaning is done or when you use a manual bottom cleaner, you have to close the input water valve to the PW Basic
-
(in the collar intake) to avoid the dirt go inside the PW Basic circuit.
A constant flow of 30 litres per hour has to go through the analysis chamber.
-
-
When a water recuperation treatment of the pool is done, we will not let water go inside the analysis chamber. To do this, it is
essential to install a valve in the place where the water of the PW Basic is taken and keep it closed until the recuperation treatment is
finished and the water values in the pool are the normal ones again.
