Maintenance
Like all equipment the CHEMFLO+ will look better and last longer if it is maintained and
operated in accordance with these instructions.
The CHEMFLO+ Power Supply
The Power Supply has been design for operation in full sun and weather. However, it will
benefit from being under cover. There is little maintenance required however
– some Do’s
and Don’ts –
Don’t:
•
Install it in a small sealed enclosure (so it does not overheat)
•
Install it in a very hot unventilated shed (so it does not overheat)
•
Allow insects to nest in the unit (because they will prevent it from functioning)
•
Install chemical drums under or close to the unit (to prevent corrosion)
•
Forget about the unit once installed
– it should be checked regularly to ensure
that it is working for you
Do:
•
Install it as per the instructions
•
Check it regularly
•
Make sure the pool balance is checked regularly
Cleaning the Multi-electrode (Probe)
If the CHEMFLO+ is consistently giving readings different from those obtained from a test
kit, it may be necessary to clean the multi-electrode.
To do this:
•
Remove the probe from the injection point by twisting the bayonet (or if fitted with
a tapping band, by unscrewing the retaining nut) and remove the o-ring.
•
Holding the cable, gently swirl the probe in a dilute solution of hydrochloric acid
(pool acid) for two minutes
•
Rinse the probe in clean water and then replace it in the injection point, making
sure that the “o-ring” is in place.
•
Twist bayonet to lock (or tighten nut with fingers)
