1. Min/O
Press to reduce the chlorine output.
When no lights are lit, the chlorine
generator is o.
2. Max/On
Press to turn on and increase the
chlorine output.
3. Chlorine Production
Each light represents 10% of output
i.e. 5 lights = 50% output.
4. High TDS (Total Dissolved Solids)
If light on or ashing see
Troubleshooting Guide, pages 14–15.
5. Low TDS (Total Dissolved Solids)
If light on or ashing see
Troubleshooting Guide, pages 14–15.
6. Water Flow
If light ashes and chlorine generator
beeps then no water is owing through
the electrode housing.
See Troubleshooting Guide, pages 14–15.
7. Power Status
When light is on the chlorine
generator power supply is operating.
8. To Access Time Clock

CHLORINE GENERATOR INSTALLATION
ELECTRODE HOUSING
The electrode housing may be installed either horizontally or vertically in the return water
line to the pool. The water ow through the housing may be in either direction. Plumbing
may be either 40mm or 50mm pipe.
Horizontal - the plumbing connection on the side of the electrode housing must
face downwards.
Vertical - the plumbing connection on the end of the electrode housing must
face downwards and the electrical connections must be protected from the
weather. The electrode housing should be installed in a weatherproof, well
ventilated pool shed.
Gas trap - the electrode housing must be installed to form a gas trap as shown
below. If water was to stop owing and the chlorine generator continue running,
chlorine gas pressure will build up in the housing and pipe work and cause damages.
This can happen if water continues to run back into the electrode housing (e.g.
from a outgoing pipe after the pump is turned o), allowing water to come in
contact with the electrodes producing a build-up of gas. A gas trap allows the gas
to displace water away from the sensor terminal, thus turning o the Chlorine
generator power supply and the “water ow” alarm will sound.
GAS TRAP
NO GAS TRAP

The power supply should be installed in a weatherproof, well ventilated area and mounted
vertically within 1.5 metres of the electrode. Although the unit has an IP24 rating it can still
be susceptible to wind driven rain.
The SMC chlorine generator can be tted to pools with any type of heating system. Do
not install chlorine generator and water heater in reverse as the heavily chlorinated water
could damage the heating unit and may negate the heater warranty.
