3 OPERATION
3A. General
To achieve optimal performance from the ozone system, the pool
must be as clean as possible to start with.
1. Backwash or clean filters one day before starting the ozone generator.
2. Superchlorinate pool water using a chlorine based shock treatment
prior to ozone system start-up.
3. Test pool chemistry and adjust pH between 7.4 and 7.6. Adjust
total alkalinity between 80 and 120 ppm.
4. Run pool filtration continuously for 24 hours prior to starting
ozone system.
3B. Initial System Start-Up
Upon completing all of the generator system connections and cleaning
the pool as outlined above, you are ready to start the ozone generator.
1. Check electrical connections.
2. Check for proper voltage.
3. Turn on pool circulation system.
3C. Normal Operation
Indicator Lights: When the pool's circulation system starts, the DEL
Ozone generator will power up and the green indicator lights on the
ozone cells will illuminate. Open the enclosure door to verify that all
indicator lights are green.
3D. System Shut-Down
The following sequence of steps must be followed for servicing or for storage.
1. Disconnect the power to the ozone generator.
2. After the generator has been shut down, the pool water circulation
pump may be turned off.
3. If the system is to be shut down for an extended period,
disconnect the ozone tube from the unit.
3E. Water Chemistry
Regular chlorine or bromine testing should be performed as normal.
Ozone will be eliminating the majority of contaminants. Therefore, only
a small amount of chemicals will need to be added - just enough to
maintain an appropriate residual level of chlorine or bromine. Ozone is
pH neutral thus minimizing pH adjustments.
