The DA-GEN is an innovative water treatment system and additional an intelligent pool controller. The DA-GEN
combines Hydrolysis with Electrolysis with a low mineral content.
The Hydrolysis produces free radicals and other oxygen compounds like ozon, peroxide and persulfate. All
these oxidants destroy organic substances and pathogena in the water. Free radicals are the strongest oxidants
we know. They oxidise and decompose in a few seconds. To guarantee a safe depot disinfection the DA-GEN
produces a very small amount of chlorine. In combination with DAISY we need a very low mineral content of 1 to
2 kg MgCl2 or 0.75 to 1.5 kg NaCl per m3.
The DA-GEN controls also all your pool components centrally. Thanks to WIFI you can check and control your
pool system 24/7.

It’s recommended to use a time delay circuit breaker of
13 A for private devices and a time delay circuit breaker
of 16 A for public devices. In case of sharing the power
supply with other devices please consult a technician in
order to dimension a correct installation.

Adjust the alkalinity between 100 and 200
ppm.
Adjust the pH between 7,0 and 7,4.
Adjust the chlorine between 0,1 and 0,5 ppm.

INITIAL WATER ADJUSTMENTS

We recommend to add 1 to 2 kg magnesium chloride or 0.75 - 1.5 kg normal salt
per m3 of water. Der TDS should be at around 1200.
Add the magnesium chloride or salt directly to your swimming pool water or in the
compensation tank and let the system run.
• The system will operate without problems with salt concentrations from 1 g/l to 50 g/l.
• In outdoor pools it is necessary to use ACO.

MAINTENANCE
If necessary, carry out a monthly visual inspection. To clean the cell:
Remove the cell from its support (after turning off the ltration system and closing off the necessary valves).
Place the cell for no more than 10 minutes in 3% hydrochloric acid (1l of acid for each 10l of water).
Once the incrustations have softened remove with a hose to complete cleaning the cell.
DO NOT USE METALIC OR SHARP OBJECTS TO REMOVE INCRUSTATIONS. Scratching the edges or surface of the cell will make it
vulnerable to chemicals, deteriorate the cell and cancel the guarantee.
The pool must be vacuumed as usual and the skimmers emptied whenever necessary.
FILTER BACKWASHING: Once every week for 4 to 5 minutes should be sufcient (providing the lter pressure does not exceed 1 bar, in
which case a lter cleaning may be necessary).
VERY IMPORTANT: Make sure the cell is off while cleaning the lter. If the system controls the ltration pump, use the option “lter cleaning” of the programmed ltration
mode. See section 5– Filtration / Filter Cleaning of the General Installation Guide.
DOSING PUMPS: Check regularly to ensure that the containers contains liquid to prevent the dosing pump of running dry.
pH / Redox / CONDUCTIVITY – PROBES: The probes must be cleaned and recalibrated every 2 to 3 months.
To clean the probe insert in distilled water (clear liquid). After each cleaning the probes must be calibrated. Also: the probes should
never dry out and must be kept wet if stored (when emptying the pool for winterizing, make sure to store the measuring head in water).

TROUBLESHOOTING
• If salt concentration is correct (1- 2 kg/m3 MgCl2 or 0.75 - 1.5 kg/m3 NaCl): Cell is reaching its end of life. As of this moment check intensity every 15-20 days.
• When polarity 2 does not reach medium intensity, we recommend substituting the cell for a new one if it happens during the summer period. If it happens during winter,
change the cell before the next summer period.
Polarity 1 reaches maximum intensity, but polarity 2 (auto clean) does not reach maximum intensity
• Check if ON/OFF switch is illuminated.
• Check the connection wire between display and motherboard.
• Check fuse of the device 3.15 A – it could have tripped due to overload.
• Check the power supply – 230V/50Hz.
• If problem persists contact TECHNICAL SERVICE
• Lower electrolysis cell intensity.
• If your system includes automatic Redox control, check Redox setpoint value.
Reduce it by 50 to 100 mV.
• If your system includes free chlorine measurment, adjust the setpoint value.
• Check redox probe and calibrate it if necessary.
Blank display Excess of chlorine in the water
• Low water temperature.
• Check salt concentration (TDS) in water.
• Check cell status (may be incrusted or calcied).
• Clean the cell according to the instructions in section 4.
• Clean the ow detector situated in the cell housing.
• Check titanium cell is not worn out (remember that the cell is guaranteed for
5.000 hours, approx. 2-3 years of summer usage).
Electrolysis does not reach the setpoint value
• Very hard waters with a high pH and total alkalinity: balance water adjusting pH
and total alkalinity.
• Check to ensure the system automatically changes polarity every 300 minutes
approximately.
• Consult with our technical service to consider accelerating the polarity change
(auto-cleaning). WARNING: Accelerating the polarity change decreases the cell
life (5.000 hours) proportionally.
• Reduce pH set point to 7.0
Titanium cell incrusted in less than 1 month
• Check ow detector cable.
• Clean incrustations of ow detector at the top of cell housing.
• Check if system is free of air (probe must be always submerged).
• Metallic elements lack standardized earth connection. Contact an
electrician to solve the problem.
• Rusted components are not stainless steel (minimum 316/V4A/1.4571).
• The salt concentration (TDS) is too high.

WARNING
Keep chemical levels in pool as instructed in this manual.
CLEANING FILTER
Very Important: Make sure the cell is off while cleaning the lter. If the system controls the ltration pump, use the option “lter cleaning” of the programmed ltration
mode. See section 5 – Filtration / Filter Cleaning of the General Installation Guide.
VERY IMPORTANT
Remember that the system needs some time to adapt to your pool and that you will have to increase chemical levels for the rst 5 days.
EARTHING
All metallic components in the pool such as lamps, ladders, heat exchangers, drains or similar elements within 3 m from the pool (10 feet) must be connected to an earth
below 37 Ohms. If using heat exchangers, we recommend them to be made of titanium.
SECURITY
To avoid accidents, children should not handle this product unless supervised by an adult. Children should be supervised at all times when in or near a spa, pool or
jacuzzi.
HANDLING AND DOSING DANGEROUS CHEMICALS
Chemicals should be handled with extreme precaution. When preparing acid, always add acid to water, never add water to acid, because very dangerous gasses may be
produced.
• Increase ltration hours to 24 hours
• Increase electrolysis level.
• Check the salt concentraion (TDS) in the water. Setpoint value app. 1200 ppm.
• In an outdoor pool: Add ACO to the water.
• Check if reactive agents in test kit are expired.
• Check if the temperature or amount of users has risen.
Free chlorine level don’t reach the setpoint value
• The maximum dosing time (standard 200 min.) is accomplished and the acid
dosing pump stops in order to avoid the acidication of the water.
• To delete the message and to restart the metering press ESC ( ). Do the
following verications in order to preclude errors on the device: Verify if the
pH probe reading is correct (if not, calibrate the probe or substitute it with
a new one); Verify if the acid/base deposit is full and if the dosing pump is
working correctly; Verify the variable speed of the dosing pump.
