INSTALL
: -
Install the unit on the wall (bolts and spacers supplied) where ever convenient for your pipe
work. Cut your existing pipe after the filter and before the return jest. Connect a BYPASS. If
you need to clean your electrodes or replace the algaecide electrodes this will make life easier
and it is just good maintenance to use the bypass when adding pH correction or vacuuming
the pool.
The Unit must be OFF!
Now
Check for leaks
and circulate.
Procedure 1
: -
1.
Open BYPASS pipe Valve and close the eClear pipe Valves so the water will not flow
through the eClear chambers.
2.
Backwash and Rinse Filters very well.
3.
Switch Multi-Valve to Circulation. Commence to circulate water.
4.
Correct pH by mixing pH correction into a bucket of water and add this directly into the
skimmer so that the solution goes through the Circulation (not through the filter) and then
into the Pool-Water.
5.
Wait 10 minutes. Switch Multi-Valve back to FILTRATION and circulate water.
6.
Considering you have depleted your chlorine or Bromine levels, add
ACTIVE OXYGEN
(see product label for instructions) Add directly into the skimmer. You can also add a little
NON COPPER based algaecide. These products are used only for the first 1 or 2 weeks!
These should be added with Multi-Valve on FILTRATION.
7.
Check that all the settings on the Unit are set to HIGH. This is achieved by switching the
pool-size switch - (
Figure 2
) to maximum pool size and
setting A
. The Potentiometer
knob - (
Figure 3
) should be fully anti clockwise.
Switch the
Unit ON -
(
Figure 7
) Make
sure the
OXYGEN
and
IONIZATION
switches are ON - (
Figure:14-15
)
If you have
the UV
(
Optional
)
Then also switch on the
UV -
(
Figure 9
)
.
8.
Check the conductivity mA meter. (
Figure 1
)
Raise to 200mA for the MK7/CF1-75. For
the MK7/CF1-150 raise to 250mA. This is achieved by setting the pool size switch -
(
Figure 2
) to
A or B
,
then turn the potentiometer knob slowly clockwise - (
Figure 3
).
This will also depend on the conductivity of your water. If the dosing meter indicates a
very high output e.g. 400mA or above, turn down the potentiometer
(Figure 3)
. If the
reading is still too high change the switch - (
Figure 2
) to the
B
setting to achieve an
output of 200mA to 300mA maximum.
9.
Run the pool 24/7 non-stop for 7 days an Re-Check the pH. Correct if necessary. Check
the copper residual by following the instructions from the test kit provided. Take the water
sample from a depth of at least 40cm and from the centre of the longest pool wall. The
level of Copper residual required is between 0.5ppm and 0.7ppm. If lower, continue
filtration 24/7 until you reach the 0.5ppm – 0.7ppm optimum Copper residual.
10.
Whilst the copper residual is rising add a little more Active Oxygen and the non Metallic
algaecide at this point. This will keep your pool clear until the water is fully Ionised.
11.
When the above readings are achieved, switch Ionization
OFF -
(
Figure 15
)
and continue
to sanitize your pool water on the
Oxygen Mode only
(
Figure 14
)
.
You will only switch
your Ionization on again if your Copper residual drops below 0.5ppm as indicated by the
test kit supplied. If this happens then run the filtration again 24/7 and check every 24
hours the copper level until you have achieved again the 0.5ppm to 0.7ppm copper
residual. Otherwise you remain constantly on your Oxygen Mode.
12.
Now set your filtration to Automatic and the hours necessary.
13.
Follow water maintenance weekly programme supplied.
