Change of polarity of the electrodes:
The electrodes change polarity automatically and have an estimated change time so that wear will be
equal in each of the electrodes.
Titanium electrodes change every 2 hours and the copper electrodes every 4 minutes
NOTE: OXY and ION keys, have two green lights. Each change of polarity will turn off one
light and turn on the other. This indicates that the change of polarity has occurred between
the electrodes.

Cleaning of the electrodes:
Visually, you should ensure that there is not too much dirt between the internal spaces of each pair
of electrodes. As soon as you see that they are dirty, disconnect the cables, unwind the chambers
and submerge them for 30 minutes in 50% vinegar and 50% water and delicately brush them with a
tooth brush so as not to damage the patented lining that the electrodes have.
Never use a metallic brush as this will seriously damage the electrodes and they will
no longer work.
Remember that the cables that are connected to the titanium electrodes are the cables that come
out of the control unit if we are stood in front of it, and the cables that lead to the copper electrodes
are connected to the fifth or last port from the left.
The average frequency of cleaning depends on the water quality and quantity of flocculent used.
Visually check the electrodes every month and clean them when you see dirt between them.
NOTE: Remember to check the parameters of calcium hardness, alkalinity, TDS (total
dissolved solids), pH and residual copper. The more professionally monitored the better
(at least once a month, depending on water losses and filling), this way the water is best
disinfected, it will prevent damage to the components of the pool (including the electrodes) and
avoid inconvenience to bathers. This is independent of the disinfection system used (chlorine,
bromine, ozone, OXYMATIC, etc ...), and little by little, owing to the swimmers, filtration and washing
of filters, microorganisms from the water, filled with fresh water, sun , etc ..., change the parameters
of the water.
