Section 5
Installation
This section describes how to install the SC-75 Salt Chlorinator into the pool plumbing system. Before installing, review the
SC-75 kit contents and required tools.
Note: For Power Center installation instructions, see the "SC-75 Power Center Installation Guide"
Note: Salt is not provided. For details about the type of salt to use, see "What Type of Salt to Use" .
Required Tools
- Tape measure
- Phillips and flathead screwdriver
- Pliers and Hacksaw
- An NSF® approved all-purpose PVC/CPVC/ABS cleaner primer
- An NSF® approved all-purpose PVC/CPVC/ABS cement
When using electrical products, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, WHICH CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
Before attempting installation of service, ensure that all power to the circuit supplying power to the system is
disconnected/turned off at the circuit breaker. It is recommended that the SC-75 Power Center be connected
to a circuit protected by a ground fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI).
•
Grounding (earth bonding) is required. The unit should be installed by a qualified service person and grounded.
•
Install to allow access to cell buttons and power center.
•
Read Safety Precautions and Important Instructions. Before attempting any electrical wiring, be sure to read and follow
Safety Instructions. Wiring should only be performed by a qualified professional.
•
Install the SC-75 unit a minimum 1 meter away from the heater outlet.
•
Pipe couplings: Schedule 80, maximum pressure 5 Bar (75 psi) at 21° C - PVC pipe 50mm
•
Operate unit with minimum flow of 6m³/h. For high flow applications, use a bypass loop for best flow sensing.
•
Provide at least 300mm-450mm of straight pipe in front of the cell inlet.
Installing the SC-75 Cell Assembly
Install the SC-75 cell assembly no closer than 900mm away from the heater outlet, if used.
Note: For best flow sensing, provide at least 300mm – 450mm of straight pipe in front of the cell inlet.
Note: Pipe couplings: Schedule 80, maximum pressure 5 Bar (75 psi) at 21° C
To install the SC-75 cell:
1. Using PVC glue, mount the PVC couplings to the plumbing pipe. Allow the glue to dry.
2. Mount the cell to allow access to the control panel. Install the cell onto the couplings.
3. Ensure the O-rings are seated properly.
4. Switch on the pump and visually inspect for leaks around the couplings.
Connecting the Cell Power Cable to the Power Center
After the cell installation is completed, connect the power cable to the Power Center:
1. Be sure that AC power is switched OFF before connecting the power cord to the Power Center.
2. Align the four (2) pins of the cell power cord connector with the socket on the bottom of the Power Center and insert
the connector. Turn the round socket nut until it locks the connector in place.
