6. POR QUE UN GENERADOR DE
CLORO A PARTIR DE SAL?
La Sal es un elemento natural que se
encuentra en la tierra y nuestro cuerpo
Se utiliza para sazonar y preservar nuestros
alimentos, y para suavizar el agua que
bebemos
La Sal es un artículo muy económico
Es la forma más fácil y segura de generar su
propio cloro a un nivel constante

8. POR QUE UN GENERADOR DE
CLORO A PARTIR DE SAL?
Con la generación de cloro se destruyen las
Cloramidas – las cuales son la que generan el olor
fuerte del cloro, los ojos rojos y la mayoria de las
reacciones negativas de la que se culpa al cloro.
Ayuda a contrarrestar la mayor objeción del
consumidor final – MANTENIMIENTO DE LA
ALBERCA

16. PROCESO DE CLORINACION - SAL
A medida que el agua fluye a través del sistema, se
aplica una corriente de bajo voltaje (Corriente Directa) a
las placas de la celda
Cuando el proceso de desinfección se completa, el
Cloro se combina con ácido y regresa al estado de Sal
NaCl + H2O + electricidad --> NaOCl + H2
Sal + Agua + electricidad --> Cloro + Hydrogen gas

18. MITOS
LA SAL ES CORROSIVA
✓ Una concentración de cloro de 4 ppm es 10 veces más
corrosiva que 4000 ppm de concentración de sal
LA SAL ES DESINFECTANTE ALTERNATIVO
✓ Los generadores de cloro a partir de sal, crean cloro por si
mismos. La sal como tal NO es un desinfectante
LA SAL NO ES COMPATIBLE CON OTRAS FORMAS DE CLORO O
QUIMICOS
✓ Debido a que el componente de la sal “Cl” es utilizado para
hacer cloro; la sal es compatible con cualquier otra forma de
cloro (y químicos para balancear también).

Part # 960 for purchase.\nIn this example of a two blade cell, the electrical current is passed from one blade to the other. Since these are not touching, it relies on the conductivity of the water to pass the current from blade to blade. On one side, bubbles are formed. This is the side that is generating chlorine but is also a high pH surface. The other side is a low pH surface. On a normal operation, slight scale formation will develop on the surface of the blade. \nThe reason the overall pH rises is that there is a byproduct of Sodium Hydroxide (or caustic soda – a weak Draino). However, once Muriatic Acid is added to reduce the pH, the Sodium is released to recombine with the chloride, forming sodium chloride (salt) which goes through the process over and over again.\n

Comparing salt systems to the more common types of chlorine show that salt chlorinators produce 100% pure sodium hypochlorite, near neutral pH with little effect on the other parameters. \nConsider the two more common forms of chlorine in Florida. Liquid Chlorine, or more commonly called bleach, has about a 10 – 12% strength, and a high pH of 13, This in turn affects the parameters by increasing the pH, Total Alkalinity, TDS and no effect on cyanuric acid.\nTablets, whether di-chlor of tri-chlor all have a significant effect on pH and other water balance parameters which will require the purchase and addition of other chemicals to maintain balance. \n

Hands On – pass around scaled cell and later 1 ½ “clean out plug.\nThe following walk up tests can be performed by anyone. First the visual cell inspection.\nStart by turning the pump off and removing the cell. Clean the cell of any calcium scale formation, only if needed. Discuss bucket method vs. manifold method vs. plug method (recommended) No scraping or tools- high pressure water can help with some scale. \nA cell will never scale or need cleaned if water is kept balanced. Cleaning damages coating and shortens cell life. \nMention forcing reverse to check unit. \nVisually inspect the terminal blades of the cell. On the SC-36 and SC-48, these are the two outside blades. They are also recognized by the terminals on the outside of the cell that the cell cord plugs into.\nOn the SC-60 and the CC-15 cells, the center blade is also a terminal blade and is probably the easiest to compare.\nThe leading edge of the terminal blades should all be even and the same lengths. Excessive wear is seen as the an erosion or degradation of that edge and will appear shorter by as little as ¼”.\nWhite Flakes in the Water mean that the unit is doing it’s job by “sloughing off” the scale build up when polarity reverses. It is an indication that water is out of balance (scale forming) but that scale build up has not yet reached the point where the unit can not self clean. \n

Discuss bucket method vs. manifold method vs. plug method (recommended) No scraping or tools- high pressure water can help with some scale. \nA cell will never scale or need cleaned if water is kept balanced. Cleaning damages coating and shortens cell life. \nMention forcing reverse to check unit. \nVisually inspect the terminal blades of the cell. On the SC-36 and SC-48, these are the two outside blades. They are also recognized by the terminals on the outside of the cell that the cell cord plugs into.\nOn the SC-60 and the CC-15 cells, the center blade is also a terminal blade and is probably the easiest to compare.\nThe leading edge of the terminal blades should all be even and the same lengths. Excessive wear is seen as the an erosion or degradation of that edge and will appear shorter by as little as ¼”.\nWhite Flakes in the Water mean that the unit is doing it’s job by “sloughing off” the scale build up when polarity reverses. It is an indication that water is out of balance (scale forming) but that scale build up has not yet reached the point where the unit can not self clean. \n
Hands On – pass around scaled cell and later 1 ½ “clean out plug.\nThe following walk up tests can be performed by anyone. First the visual cell inspection.\nStart by turning the pump off and removing the cell. Clean the cell of any calcium scale formation, only if needed.

Hands On - Refer to tri-sensor on each table.\nMention Flow switch,alignment tab, temp sensor and salt sensor blades. \nDo not scrape salt blades as it will damage sensor and throw off salt calibration. \nTemp sensor encased in thick plastic and can be a little slow to read correct temp. \n

Installing the manifold is similar to any chlorine feeding device. It is to be located after all equipment, (pump, filter, heater, chlorinator) and in the pool return line if a pool/spa combo. Why not before the pool spa diverter valve? \n For pool/spa combinations, locate the manifold in the pool return line so as to avoid spa over chlorination when the spa is isolated.\nMake sure it is located within 12’ of the power supply as this is the length of the cell and tri-sensor cords.\n
