8. MANUAL CELL CLEANING
Your ATECPOOL chlorinator is provided with a self-cleaning polarity change system
that in normal conditions eliminates maintenance work. However, in exceptional
cases, when the calcium concentration is very high (very hard water), polarity
change may not be enough to completely eliminate the calcium build up. Visually
inspect the cell regularly to detect the presence of calcium and, if necessary, clean
the cell. Let the cell dry completely during one or more days for the calcium build
up to detach by itself. You can help this by slightly knocking the cell but do
not introduce any element that could scratch the electrodes. Their coating is
fragile. You can also use a water jet. DO NOT USE ANY METALLIC OR STABBING
ELEMENT TO SCRATCH THE ELECTRODES.
If you are not able to remove the calcium build up in the way described, proceed as
follows:
1 Turn off the pump and the chlorinator.
2 Disconnect the cables of the cell, remove the thread lock and extract the cell.
3 Immerse the electrodes in a hydrochloric acid solution made from 1 part of acid
(HCl 30%) and 9 parts of water. Do not immerse the rods or the cap of the cell. The
hydrochloric acid will react with the calcium and will dissolve it producing gas.
4 As soon as the calcium build up dissolves, rinse the cell immediately with
freshwater, dry the terminal area properly and reinstall the cell in its housing.
Never leave the cell in the acid solution for more than 5 min. Do
not scratch the electrodes with metal objects. For safety reasons,
always add the acid into the water and never inversely.
