1. Introduction

1.1 Description of the function

Apart from the mechanical water treatment
(filter / pool hydraulics), it is vital to control hy-
giene parameters such as pH value and disin-
fectant levels. The classical method of manual
measurement and correction is time-consuming
and awkward. For the dosing unit to perform its
task, there are some basic conditions which have
to be met. They are described in these instruc-
tions. You can use the control unit only for pri-
vate swimming pools with a maximum water
volume of 100 m .

1.2 pH-value and chlorine

The pH value is a key indicator of whether the
water is acid, neutral or basic. A value of 7.2 has
been found to be optimal for people and for the
technology. Moreover, the disinfectants have
their maximum effect at 7.2.
Disinfection with chlorine is especially effective.
However, you should not exceed water tempera-
tures of 28° Centigrade, as construction compo-
nents of the swimming pool may be damaged.
Optimal pool hydraulics are just as important.
This is because no disinfectants can enter areas
where the water cannot be circulated. Algae
growth mainly starts in the corners and on the
bottom of the pool. Hence depending on the
amount of growth, walls and bottom have to be
cleaned mechanically occasionally. Dirt is col-
lected inside the pre-filters (skimmer / filter
pump) too, and must be removed regularly.
For the dosing unit to work optimally, the filter
unit must be switched on at least 10 hours per
day and backwash must be done at regular inter-
vals (1x per week). Fresh water input (automatic
or manual) occurs only outside the running
times of the filter, so that the untreated water
cannot influence the measurements taken by the
dosing technology.
Warning:
1. If you mix inorganic with organic chlorine
preparations, there is a danger of explo-
sion!
2. Do not mix the contents of the chemical
tank with acids of any sort, because if you
do, highly-poisonous chlorine gas will be
formed.
3. The safety warnings on the chemical
tanks must always be followed!
4. When changing dosing from organic to
inorganic chlorine products, there is a
danger that organic chlorine products
led to cyanuric acid building up in the
pool. After switching over to inorganic
chlorine products, the new active chlorine
can become ineffective because it is ini-
tially in contact with the cyanuric acid.

1.3 Installation

The dosing unit must be installed in a dry room
with good ventilation. To avoid damage if the
system breaks down, there must be a drain of
sufficient size. The control unit is fixed to the
wall with the fixing screws included in the scope
of delivery.
The mains cable has already be connected
inside the control unit. The maximum per-
missible voltage is 230 V. The mains socket
must be sited as close as possible to the de-
vice and interlocked with the filter pump,
that is, the electric mains socket is allowed
to be live only when the filter pump is run-
ning. The swimming pool installation is to
be equipped with a separate FI switch.
Please observe the official standards for wir-
ing regulations (i.e. German DIN VDE
0100) as well as local standards. Ensure that
the mains cable and peripherals are not live
during installation or maintenance work.
The device is suitable for salt chlorinators
up to 700 W max.
