EcoSalt ™ Salt Water Pool Systems Congratulations! You are now the proud owner of the renowned EcoSalt™ Salt Water Chlorinator. Please read all information in this manual carefully before installing or operating your EcoSalt™ Salt Water Pool Chlorinator.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: FACTORS THAT WILL IMPROVE THE PERFORMANCE & LIFE OF YOUR SALT WATER CHLORINATOR PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR CHLORINATOR POOL BUILDERS: Please cover this information with your customer during the new pool “Hand over Session” Salt Water Chlorinators are a valuable piece of pool sanitising equipment and must be cared for to get the best performance and life span from it. There are THREE main factors that will damage your chlorinator and reduce the life of the product.
Note: The Chlorinator is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision. Please ensure that young children are supervised to ensure that they do not play with the Chlorinator. Power connections and wiring must be carried out by an authorised electrician. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR ECOSALT™ INSTALLING THE POWER SUPPLY: Select a convenient well-ventilated location within one metre of filter equipment and mount the Power Supply vertically onto a post or wall 1.
CONNECTING THE ELECTROLYTIC CELL TO THE POWER SUPPLY: The EcoSalt™ uses a reverse polarity electrolytic cell for low maintenance operation. The EcoSalt™ Power Supply is fitted with a flexible lead terminated with connectors. These must be correctly fitted to the connections on the underside of the cell. Fit black connectors to the outer titanium rods. Fit the white connector to the middle titanium rod. The blue flow sensor should be pushed onto the thread of the small threaded bolt on the top of the cell.
CONTROL PANEL LAYOUT OPERATION LED SANITISER OUTPUT DIAL POLARITY INDICATOR 6 FUSE 8:00AM SELECTOR SWITCH Once the salt level in the pool is correct the Unit may be switched On. Note: Once the unit starts there is a short time delay until the cell operates to ensure the filtration system is primed with water) At this point the Operation LED should be Green; if red refer below. Note: Polarity LED may be either A or B (whichever is on or brightest.
EcoSalt™ SPECIAL FEATURES: SYSTEM CONTROL (SANITISER OUTPUT DIAL): The System Control varies the amount of time the Cell operates during the filtration cycle. The System Control will not vary the electrical current supplied to the Cell. As an example, if one filtration cycle is set at 5 hours, and the System Control is set to 80%, then the total amount of time the Cell will operate during the 5-hour cycle will be 4 hours.
AUTOMATIC TIME CLOCK OPERATION: The digital timer includes a backlit Liquid Crystal Display which displays time of day in 12-Hour format with AM / PM indication and a selector switch position indicator. The digital timer has up and down buttons for incremental settings. 6 8:00AM Timer Setting and Functions: To set your clock and various functions please refer to the table of instructions below.
Set the completion time of the first run time sequence Set Timer 1- OFF 3 Select the Set Timer 1- OFF position on the selector switch. A number ‘3’ will appear on the left of the screen. This time is factory pre-set to 8am. Proceed as per (a) in the ‘Set Clock’ instruction to change time. Set the completion time of the second run time sequence Set Timer 2- ON 4 Select the Set Timer 2- ON position on the selector switch. A number ‘4’ will appear on the left of the screen.
SAFETY NOTICE IMPORTANT Certain local electrical regulations state “If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord available from the manufacturer or its service agent”. MAINTENANCE OF POWER SUPPLY: Little or no maintenance is normally required with the exception of replacing blown Fuses. These Fuses can be sourced from your local EcoSalt™ Dealer.
METHOD 2 As an alternative, an approved commercial Cell cleaning solution can be used a number of times effectively. When clean the Cell should be rinsed thoroughly and the connections should be dried carefully to avoid connector corrosion. It should not take longer than a few minutes to clean, if it does the Cell should be cleaned more frequently. Return the Cell to its position in the pipe work and re-connect it. WARNING: Follow safety instructions provided with the Hydrochloric Acid or cleaning solution.
Salt is NOT used up in the process of producing chlorine or by evaporation. Salt is only lost through back washing, splash - out, overflow or by leakage from the pool or plumbing. Heavy rain can dilute the salt solution in your pool; therefore salt levels should be checked during this season. Low salt levels will destroy the coating on the Anode plates and will void all Warranty.
NOTE: The appropriate chlorinator size for your pool is dependent on the local climate and the bather load of the pool. Please note that chlorinator cell life can be increased with shorter running times during winter and lower output settings. Davey recommends that a chlorinator is run for between 6 - 8 hours a day during summer, and 4 hours during winter.

TROUBLE SHOOTING: Low Chlorine Production - Check for No Chlorine Production - Check for 1. Main power outlet switched off 2. Chlorinator not plugged into main outlet 3. Pump not plugged into Chlorinator 4. Time Clock set to Off position/Power switch turned Off 5. Sanitiser Output Control turned to “o” setting 6. Chlorinator fuse blown 7. Dirty Cell 8. Filter needs back washing 9. Gas Sensor not connected 10. Insufficient water flow through cell 11. Running times incorrect 12. Main house fuse blown 13.
