Operation:
The Triton Ionizer must have water flowing through the electrode hous-
ing at all times when the unit is turned on. During operation, ions try to
jump from one electrode rod to the other and are swept away by the
flowing water. The Control panel reverses polarity regularly to ensure
even consumption of the electrodes. Lack of water flow enables the
ions to jump and attach to the adjacent electrode. This results in insuf-
ficient treatment of the water and excessive corrosion of the electrodes.
Unplug the Triton ionizer any time that the pump is turned off.
The Triton Ionizer will return to the previous level of ionization when
power is restored.
• Turn on the pump
• Plug in the Triton Ionizer and set at "full" power, illuminating all of
the bars within the LED panel. Using the + and - buttons on the
left side of the LED bars will adjust the level of ionization.
• Monitor copper levels using the supplied test strips over a period of
days. Once copper levels are elevated between 0.2 and 0.25ppm,
lower the level of ionization to 1 or 2 bars on the LED panel.
• Test water weekly to ensure that copper readings are at the correct
level. If needed, the level of ionization can be adjusted using the +
and – buttons on the control panel.
• Once desired water clarity is achieved, operating the Triton Ionizer
at minimum levels and adjusting based on the conditions of the
water feature will help prolong the life of the anodes.
Note: Water volume, total alkalinity and the amount of debris in a pond
are all factors that may affect how quickly copper levels are elevated.
Please note that it may take several weeks of operation for copper
levels to become detectable. It is not unusual for the test strips to
