Use Of Sodium Bromide 

Once a bromine pool -Always a bromine pool. 

SODIUM BROMIDE (OPTIONAL)  - 100 PPM 

Where Cyanuric acid is not availab le or where its use is restricted, bromine can be used as an alternative purifier to 
chlorine.  
The LIBERTO unit will convert sodium bromide to bromine in the same way that it converts sodium chloride to chlorine.  

NOTE: Bromine pools do not require the addition of Cyanuric acid. Typical chlorine stabilizer provides no U.V. protection for 
bromine residuals. DO NOT MAINTAIN OR ADD CYANURIC ACID TO A BROMINE POOL!  

To produce hypobromous acid (bromine purifier), we recommend initially adding 10.9 kg of sodium bromide for every 
45,000 Litres of pool water capacity. To maintain the sodium bromide level add 1.8 kg of sodium bromide for every 22.5 kg 
of sodium chloride (salt) added to the pool.  

REMEMBER: For the LIBERTO System to operate properly, the pool water must contain the recommended level of both salts 
as previously specified. (When used, sodium bromide is added in addition to the normal amount of sodium chloride 
required.) 

 

Before operating the  LIBERTO System, perform the following steps to ensure proper installat ion and operation: 

A.

 

Turn ON all circuit breakers to the pool equipment.   

B.

 

Set the output control dial at 50%.  

C.  Switch on the main filter pump, the following indicators should display .... a cycling green OK and red CHECK SYSTEM. 
This is normal and will last 1 minute. After sufficient flow is detected, greater than 56LPM, the green OK indicator should 
flash. If this sequence does not occur or any red indicators display, please refer to the Trouble Shooting Guide starting on 
page 14 for further assistance.  

NOTE: Be sure to test the chlorine/bromine level for the next few days and properly adjust the chlorine/bromine output 
dial.  

DO NOT EXCEED RECOMMENDED CHLORINE OR BROMINE LEVELS! 

As adjustments are required, make the adjustment and allow the pool to react to this change a minimum of 3 days. After 
the 3 days expire, retest the pool water and make any further adjustments if necessary. Typically, when an adjustment is 
made, the amount of time the main filter pump operates does not change. A simple rule to follow....  

As the water temperature decreases, the purifier demand also decreases.  

Lower the Output Control Dial to satisfy this change in purifier demand until it's necessary to raise the residual level. When 
the water temperature drops below 14°C, lower the Output Control Dial. In some cases, set it to the "0 (zero)" position. Do 
not allow chlorine or bromine residual to drop below minimum level. Because the water temperature is cooler, the purifier 
demand is lower, it is unnecessary to produce as much purifier as normally produced in warmer water. Further, this action 
protects the Cell from possible damage caused by operating below 14°C.  

As the water temperature increases, the purifier demand also increases.  

Raise the Output Control Dial  and/or  increase the main filter pump runtime to satisfy this change in purifier demand.
