Terminal Block the coloured wires from your pool light are connected. The Light
Transformer is for use with 12volt pool lights, maximum power is 150Watt.
Please Note: Only one light can be connected to each light transformer. If more than
one light is required please refer to your Aquachlor dealer.
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 3 Amp Fuses (5amp for C520) can be sourced from your local
Aquachlor Dealer. However it is essential that the wall or post to which the Unit is
installed be sprayed (not the Unit itself) periodically with a good surface type insect
repellent, since penetration by insects may cause damage which is not covered by your
warranty.
The Unit will become warm to hot when in operation, this is normal.
MAINTENANCE OF ELECTROLYTIC CELL:
The cell is composed of extremely expensive materials, and although proper
maintenance can prolong its life to the maximum, eventually the process of electrolysis
will wear away its delicate coating, at which time it gradually ceases to produce chlorine.
Mineral salts and calcium (scale) are deposited on the outer and the inner plates as
electrolysis takes place. This build up will interfere with the flow of electrical current in
the Cell and thus lowers sanitiser production. It is essential to inspect the Cell regularly
and clean when necessary. The rate at which deposits will form on the plates differs
with each pool and can be influenced by the following:
Calcium hardness of the water
Water Temperature
pH control
Water which has been chlorinated with calcium hypochlorite for an extended
period
Calcium in the plaster surfaces of a concrete pool
Because these conditions vary so much, check the Cell at least weekly to begin with to
see when either scale or a blue/green soapy substance appears on the plates. You will
then be able to determine the cleaning cycle necessary for your pool (obviously more in
summer). The intervals between cleaning could get longer to the point where cleaning is
only necessary a few times each year. One exception is the use of bore water or ground
water, in which case cleaning may always need to be as frequent as once a week.
Life of Aquachlor electrolytic cells will vary substantially from one installation to
another due to variations in operating time, water quality and composition, system and
cell maintenance. Please ensure that when cell replacement is necessary you use the
correct genuine Aquachlor replacement cell to match your system.
