MODELS
C250CF, C500CF, C1100CF, C1800CF, C2400CF
Your Hayward Automatic Chemical Feeder is designed for installation next to
filter/pump system. It uses either Trichloro-S-Triazinetrione (tri-chlor) slow
dissolving chlorine or bromine sticks or tablets ONLY. No other type of
chemical should ever be used in your feeder. It should be installed to operate
by the pressure differential of the system, or a pressure-suction combination,
using the pump to provide water flow through the feeder. The amount of
sanitizer dissolved depends on the flow rate through the feeder. By
regulating the Dial Control Valve between FULL (more sanitizer) and toward
OFF (less sanitizer), you can easily adjust the rate of feed necessary to
maintain the proper residual for your pool.
DANGER—READ CAREFULLY
Always read label and carefully follow the sanitizer
manufacturer’s and dealer’s recommendations for proper
water conditioning and daily sanitizer requirements for your
particular pool. This chemical feeder is designed to use only
either Trichloro-s-Triazinetrione (tri-chlor) slow dissolving
chlorine or bromine sticks or tablets. NEVER MIX or use any
other types of chlorine sanitizer or chemicals in this feeder.
Explosion or fire may result, causing property damage,
personal injury or death.
WARNING: MISUSE MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS
PERSONAL INJURY REQUIRING HOSPITALIZATION.
RELATED COMPLICATION MAY LEAD TO DEATH.
Exercise extreme caution when opening or servicing your
feeder. Always shut off pump and available valves before
opening feeder. NEVER OPEN chemical feeder when pump
is running. Do not inhale fumes from any chemical feeder or
container. Protect your eyes, skin and clothing from
chemicals at all times with gloves and face shield. To
prevent build up of gas in chemical feeder, be sure return
line valve(s) is kept open—except when opening/servicing
unit.
WARNING: IF THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT
FOLLOWED EXACTLY, A FIRE OR EXPLOSION MAY
RESULT, CAUSING PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL
INJURY OR DEATH.
For proper installation of your Chemical Feeder, see
Installation Instructions on next page.
BROMINE USE:
Before start-up of your chemical feeder, your pool should be
properly conditioned and have the recommended bromine
residual as listed below. The chemical demand for pools
varies based on use, temperature, sunlight, etc. Initially,
you’ll have to experiment to determine the proper valve
setting required for your pool and filter time cycle. As a start,
add desired quantity of bromine tablets or sticks, slow
dissolving type only, and set Dial Control Valve at 1/2. Test
water periodically and adjust Dial Control Valve setting to
maintain a proper bromine level.
Recommended Bromine Residual:
CHLORINE USE:
Before start-up of your chemical feeder, your pool should be
properly conditioned and have the recommended chlorine
residual as listed below. The chemical demand for pools
varies based on use, temperature, sunlight, etc. Initially,
you’ll have to experiment to determine the proper valve
setting required for your pool and filter time cycle. As a start,
add desired quantity of chlorine tablets or sticks, slow
dissolving type only, and set Dial Control Valve between 2
and 4. Test water periodically and adjust Dial Control Valve
setting to maintain a proper chlorine level.
Recommended Chlorine Residual:
Residential Pools: 2.0 - 3.0 PPM
Commercial Pools: 3.0 - 5.0 PPM
Residential Pools: 1.0 - 2.0 PPM
Commercial Pools: 1.0 - 2.0 PPM
