Nature² Benefits
• The Bactericidal qualities of silver reduce the amount of chlorine required to maintain the
pool. The copper inhibits algae growth.
• By Lowering the output of the chlorine generator, the pool water quality dramatically im-
proves and the life of the electrolytic cell is extended.
The Minerals
• Copper– inhibits algae growth, regularly sold as algaecides
• Silver– known bactericide, used for thousands of years to bacteria in water, milk, and on
skin
• Porous Alumina– releases silver and copper, assists in trapping nuisance metals, algae,
and bacteria
The Facts
• Copper is released into the pool at low levels (.02 - .06 ppm)
• Silver is maintained throughout the cartridge life (6 months at .01 - .05 ppm)
• Minimum pump run time is 6 hours, and can be run up to 24 hours
As a general guideline, the purer the salt the better the performance and the longer the “life” of the cell.
Calcium and magnesium are the enemies of the cell and cause scaling, poor performance and shortened anode life.
It is recommended to use food grade salt only with the following characteristics:
• Minimum 99.8% pure NaCl
• No added anti-caking agents
• No sodium ferrocyanides (aka - yellow prussiate of soda)
• Non-iodized.

50 or 60 - The unit is detecting the electrical supply to optimize the unit settings. 60 cycles power is the
US standard. If the unit detects 60 cycles, it will display the temperature in degrees F. 50 cycles is common in Europe.
CHLORINE PRODUCTION - displays the current production percentage rate for chlorine.
WAIT - the unit is still testing its diagnostics.
NO FLOW - the unit is still testing its diagnostics, or no water flow is detected.
FLOW - the flow sensor is indicating to the unit it has enough water flow.
LO - indicates the water temperature is less than 51 degrees F.
BO - boost cycle has been activated. Cancel by holding the POOL TEMPERATURE button down for 10
seconds.
EC - the unit is being controlled by an external controller or ORP device.
JA - indicates operation is controlled by a Jandy AquaLink RS or PDA, and is in AUTO mode.
JO - indicates operation is controlled by a Jandy AquaLink RS or PDA, and the system is in SERVICE or
TIMEOUT mode.
JB - indicates operation is controlled by a Jandy AquaLink RS or PDA, and the system is in BOOST
mode.
WHAT THE INDICATOR LIGHTS MEAN
CELL ON - Full power is being sent to the cell.
CELL RESTING - The cell is in the off portion of chlorine production cycle. Cycle time is 30 minutes. As an
example, when the chlorine production rate is set to 50%, full power will be applied to the cell for 15 minutes and then no power (CELL RESTING) for the next 15 minutes.
FLOW - The sensor is detecting water flow.
CELL REVERSING - Control switches polarity to the cell every 3 hours to help clean the plates. The cell
will rest for 3 minutes between switching of polarity.
ADD SALT - Salinity level is 2.5 gpl or less. Should be 3.0 to 3.5 gpl.
SERVICE - A service problem has been detected. The display will also show one or two error codes.
POWER ON - Power is being sent to the control and received at the User Interface Board

TROUBLESHOOTING - SENSOR INSPECTION
FLOW/TEMP/SALINITY SENSOR
The Sensor determines flow by comparing the temperature differential between the heated and unheated test pads. Salinity is
measured by the two “silver” test pads. These pads should be
kept clean to insure accuracy.
FLOW/TEMP/SALINITY SENSOR REVISION
Current Revisions are HX19 and JX 11
FLOW/TEMP/SALINITY SENSOR CLEANING
Once per year, or as needed, clean the sensor as follows:
1. Remove Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor.
2. Brush with a mildly abrasive green fiber household
cleaning pad. Contacts should be clean and bright
when done.
3. Thoroughly rinse the Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor with
clean tap water. Replace and resume normal operation.
4. Turn power off and back on to re-calibrate and reset
This test confirms that the Power Interface Board
(PIB) is reading the Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor
correctly utilizing the User Interface Board (UIB).
The Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor must be
disconnected for these 3 Tests.

CELL PROBLEMS
• Needs cleaning, calcium buildup.
• No current at cell.
• Coating worn off of plates.
• Damaged due to low flow, freezing, broken
or cracked fittings.
• Shorted with foreign matter.
CELL CLEANING
• Clean the cell by submerging it in 4 parts water to 1 part muriatic acid.
• When bubbling quits, the cell is clean of calcium deposits.
• Rinse thoroughly after cleaning.
• Do not leave the cell in acid for more than 30 minutes.
TEST VOLTAGE AT THE CELL
Turn power off.
Lift cable enough to slide test probes to the
terminals.
Touch common probe to the center terminal
and the other probe to either outside terminal. Make certain cable stays in contact with
terminals.
Turn on power and wait for control to call for
chlorine production.
With the cell under full load there should be
22 to 28 VDC.
If the correct voltage is present, but the cell
is not producing chlorine, manually test the
water chemistry and salt ppm. Correct any
readings out of range. If the problem continues, replace the cord and cell.
After testing is complete, press the cable
down tightly.
These tests confirms that the Power Interface Board
(PIB) is sending the correct voltage to the cell and
that the cell has the proper current passing between
plates.
The Chlorine Generator has to be set to
100% and producing chlorine to perform
these tests.

Board
To help determine if a fault is with the front board or the sensor, there are self diagnostic tests put on the
front board. To use these, you will need access to the front board display side and the corner of the front
board next to the red four pin connector.
-On an AquaPure, you will need to remove the front cover and use both sides of the cover.
-On a PureLink, drop the power center down and you will be able to access both sets of buttons at the
same time.

If the readings are correct then the front board is O.K. and the problem is with the sensor.
If the readings are different then it indicates that there is a problem with the front board.
Turn off power and replace the failed component. Restart the unit and wait for system diagnostics.
