How It Works

The Saltmate 150 Chlorinator c/w 12 Volt Light Transformer SMT150 harnesses the process of saltwater electrolysis to produce chlorine continuously:

• Electrolysis Process:
  When salt is dissolved in your pool water (optimally around 5000ppm), a low-voltage DC current passes through the electrolytic cell’s parallel plates. This converts chloride ions into chlorine gas, which rapidly dissolves to form free chlorine that sanitizes your pool.

• Automated Operation:
  A timer coordinates the chlorinator and pool pump, ensuring the system runs only when needed. Although manual cell cleaning is required periodically, the efficient design helps maximize chlorine production between cleanings.

• Integrated Lighting:
  The 12V light transformer activates ambient LED lighting, providing a sophisticated, energy-efficient light that enhances your pool’s nighttime aesthetics.

Installation and Maintenance

Installation

• Power Pack Placement:
  Mount the power pack in a sheltered, well-ventilated area near your pool’s pump and filtration system—ideally 1–1.5 meters above ground level—and connect to a dedicated 240V outlet with proper circuit protection.

• Plumbing Integration:
  Install the electrolytic cell as the final component in your pool’s plumbing (after the filter) using standard 40mm/50mm PVC pipes. Ensure the cell is installed horizontally for optimal chlorine production and gas trapping.

• Electrical Connections:
  Follow the provided wiring diagram to connect the cell lead to the junction box on the underside of the power pack. Secure all connections and replace the junction box cover to safeguard the electrical components.

Maintenance

• Routine Water Testing:
  Regularly test your pool’s salt level (4000–6000ppm, ideally 5000ppm), pH (7.2–7.6), and total alkalinity (80–120ppm). Maintain free chlorine levels between 1.5–3.0ppm by adjusting the chlorine control as needed.

• Cell Inspection and Cleaning:
  Since this model is not self-cleaning, inspect the clear cell housing monthly (or more often in hard water areas) for calcium deposits. If buildup is present, power down the system, remove the cell, and soak the electrodes in a recommended cleaning solution for 5–10 minutes. Rinse thoroughly, lubricate the O-ring with a silicone-based lubricant, and reassemble.

• Timer and Battery Check:
  Program the timer based on pool usage and seasonal conditions. Regularly verify the battery backup is functioning to ensure your settings remain intact during power outages.

• Safety Inspections:
  Periodically examine all electrical connections and mounting fixtures to ensure they remain secure and corrosion-free. Verify that the flow-sensitive switch is operational to guarantee consistent water circulation.
