IntelliChlor Control Panel

This section describes the IntelliChlor control panel status LEDs and the More, Less and Boost/On/Off control buttons.

Salt Level Status LEDs

The salt level is checked daily and is displayed on this section of the unit.

•Green: Good salt. The water salt level is above 2900 ppm, the

cell will produce chlorine. Flash green: Salt is above 4200 ppm. Chlorine is being produced but the pool water may be corrosive to other pool equipment. Water needs to be drained and refilled one foot at a time until the salt level is lowered.

•Yellow: Low salt. The water salt level is between 2500 ppm and 2900 ppm, salt should be added to the pool. The cell will continue to produce chlorine, but will be at a reduced level.

•Red: Very low salt. The water salt level has fallen below 2500 parts per million (ppm). The cell will not produce chlorine until additional salt is added.

Status LEDs

Pwr: Shows the condition of the system:

•Red: An error is occurring in the system. Service is needed.

•Green: The system is operational and ready.

Cell: This light is on if the cell is producing chlorine.

•Red: Water temperature is below 52° F, cell is shut off to extend warranty.

•Green (flashing): Cell is bad, may have calcium buildup, time to clean, although it is still producing chlorine.

•Green: Cell is good and producing chlorine

•Blank: Cell is off and not producing chlorine. It may be in an off-period of the sanitizing cycle and will return on shortly.

Life: The cell is designed to operate for approximately 10,000 hours before replacement is needed or approximately five years of average use.

•Green (flash): The cell is over 10,000 hours of life, replace soon.

•Green: The cell is under 10,000 hours of life, good.

Flow: This light indicates water is flowing through the cell to produce chlorine.

•Red: Insufficient water flow through the cell, no chlorine will be produced.

•Green: Sufficient water to produce chlorine.
