Adding Salt - Kripsol KLS 20 Manual De Instrucciones

PREPARING THE WATER IN YOUR SWIMMING POOL
The water will be clean and transparent if its analysis produces the
following results:
Chlorine
pH
T.A. (Alkalinity)
Salt
Water hardness
The stability of the water depends on the relationship between pH,
hardness, alkalinity, dissolved solids and temperature. We recommend
that you balance the water in the pool before connecting your chlorinator.
The analysis kit is the only way of checking your swimming pool's
chlorine level and chemical balance.
We advise that you check and adjust your pool's water regularly to
keep it clear and transparent.

2. ADDING SALT

Salt should be added in a proportion of 50 to 60 kg of salt per 10 m3 of
water. The salt is tipped into the pool so as to allow it to dissolve. As salt
is heavier than water it will sit on the bottom, even if it looks as though it
has dissolved. To achieve a more even distribution it is advisable to run the
pool vacuum over the bottom and run the filter for 24 hours. This should all
be done before switching on the chlorinator.
Contrary to what you might expect, the KRIPSOL chlorinator does
not consume salt when it produces chlorine. The salt is electrolysed,
converting it into sodium hypochlorite, which turns back into common salt
after it has disinfected the water in the pool. However, the use and cleaning
of the filter, and rainwater, will reduce the water level and when it is topped
up the salt concentration will drop.
The KRIPSOL chlorinator must be switched off while salt is being added
until the salt is completely dissolved and evenly distributed throughout the
pool. Failure to do so may cause costly damage to the electrodes and the
rectifier.
