4.3. Dismantle the cell
1) Switch off the filtration and turn off the chlorinator.
2) Close the valves to isolate the cell from the chlorinator.
3) Disconnect the cell by unscrewing the two nuts
4.4. Clean the cell
1) Take a basin that can hold the cell horizontally
2) Fill the basin with an acidic pH corrector or a diluted hydrochloric acid solution at a rate of 1 part acid to 4
parts water
Note: Always add acid to water and never the other way around.
Note: It is also possible to use white spirit vinegar.
Electrical connections out of the water
Fully immersed titanium plates
Leave the cell to soak until the limescale has completely disappeared (3 to 24 hours depending on the scale), a
blast of water will help to evacuate the limescale.
Note: Do not rub the electrodes or immerse the cell connection plugs
3) After the limescale has completely disappeared, rinse and reassemble the cell
4) Carry out an electrolysis test to check the wear of the cell and that the electrolyser has reversed the polarity.
5) Measure the water hardness and adjust the reversal frequency for self-cleaning of the electrolysis cell
accordingly.
Important : The self-cleaning of the cell is not intended to compensate for high water hardness. Beyond a TH of 60
°f, it is imperative to act first on the water balance in order to reduce its hardness

and remove it.
