Safety Notice - Davey EcoSalt Serie Manual De Instalación Y De Mantenimiento

4. Failing Cell - as the Cell ages there will come a time when the electrical current
draw will drop. This can be compensated for with the addition of extra salt. A Cell is
considered failed when it draws less than 80 % of maximum current.
Please note that the Low Salinity Indicator is not like T.D.S. meters, which are
temperature compensated Scientific Instruments. The accuracy will be within 500ppm
salinity and they are water temperature dependent, just as the Cell is.

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. However it is
essential that the wall or post to which the Unit is installed be sprayed (not the Unit itself)
with a good surface type insect repellent periodically since penetration by insects may
cause damage which is not covered by your warranty.
The back of the Unit has been designed as a heat sink. It is normal for this area to
become very hot.
MAINTENANCE OF ELECTROLYTIC CELL:
The cell is composed of precious 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 cell 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 cacium 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.
