PURITY INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

MODEL P20MRI

Thank you for purchasing PURITY chlorine generator. Carefully and completely read these instructions before installing.

1. Before installing PURITY the pool should be clean, pH balanced, stabilized (cyanuric acid) at 60 to 80 ppm, free of algae, the filter cleaned, and then shock the pool with chlorine to 5 ppm. Failure to add the stabilizer will allow the sun to destroy the chlorine as fast as it is produced and you will not be able to maintain your chlorine level. Do not proceed until you have added the proper stabilizer level to your pool. You can purchase chlorine stabilizer (cyanuric acid) and a test kit at your local pool dealer. Your stabilizer level will only need increased once or twice a year as it is diluted due to water replacement. If you do not have an ionizer installed on your pool we highly recommend you purchase one. Purity will not properly sanitize your pool without one.

2. Turn off the power to the pool equipment.

3. Install the cells on the return side of the filter, or after the heater if your pool has one. Install the cells so that water flows through the PURITY cell first, if possible. See FIG. 1. The PURITY cell can be installed on a horizontal or vertical pipe in any position or with water flowing in either direction in place of an elbow fitting. See FIG. 2. The ionizer electrodes can be installed in any position except above the pipe. See FIG. 3. If your plumbing is 1 ½” and you ordered your system for 1 ½” pipe, you will be supplied with reducing bushings for the ionizer cell. Glue the 1½” x 2” bushings into the ionizer tee using PVC glue if your existing pipe is 1½”. Do not use the bushings if your existing pipe is 2” PVC. Glue the cells in place using PVC glue. If you are not sure how to install the cells you should have a swimming pool contractor do it for you.

4. Mount the controller on a wall or vertical surface where the wires will reach the cell and the power supply. See FIG. 1. It is best to install the controller where it is protected from the sun and weather. To mount the control box, remove the cover and insert the 4 mounting screws into the slots on the corners and fasten to the vertical surface.

5. The AC power to the power supply should be connected so the power supply is on only when the circulating pump is running unless you also have our 24-hour circulating pump kit. A GFI protected outlet should be installed that only has power when the circulating pump is running. If the outlet is outdoors a weatherproof outlet cover must be installed on the outlet to cover the power supply that is not weatherproof. A licensed electrician should perform the wiring if you are not sure how to wire the AC power.

6. Plug the cord from the power supply into the receptacle on the bottom of the control box.

PURITY OPERATION

1. Turn on the power to the pool equipment.

2. Turn on the pool filter pump. Turn on the 24-hour circulating pump if you have one.

3. Turn the Cell Power switch to the OFF position until the salt is added and completely dissolved.

4. Test the salt level with the salt test kit. The older your pool is the less salt you will probably need to add. On a pool with a salt level below 500 ppm you will need to add about 200 lbs. of salt per 10,000 gals of water. Use 40 lb. bags of fine grain, untreated, salt. You can purchase this salt from your local pool dealer. You can use rock salt (water softener salt) if you are unable to find fine grain salt, but it will take longer to dissolve. Make sure any salt used is at least 99.5% salt with NO additives. Be careful not to add too much salt, because if you do you will have to remove some of your pool water and add fresh water to dilute the water. Before adding salt to the pool turn on the pump and turn off the PURITY controller and leave it off until all the salt is dissolved. Add salt by pouring it directly into the pool, or by pouring it slowly into the skimmer while the pump is running. Maintain the salt level at 2,600 ppm to 3,400 ppm. Run the pump for 24 hours to ensure that the salt is properly dissolved.

5. Monitor the chlorine level weekly and turn the Cell Power switch to the OFF position for 1 to 3 days if the chlorine level is to high to maintain the proper chlorine level. Test the pH weekly and maintain it at 7.2 to 7.6. Once every 3 to 6 months check the salt level and stabilizer level. Keep the stabilizer level between 60 and 80 ppm. If algae are ever present in the pool add a non-copper algaecide and shock the pool with chlorine to 5 to 10 ppm and maintain 3 ppm of chlorine until all algae are gone.

6. Set the Ionizer control to MAX. It will take 1 to 3 weeks for the copper level to reach the proper level. Keep the chlorine level at 2 ppm until the copper level is at .3 ppm. After the copper level reaches .3 ppm then the chlorine level can be maintained at .2 ppm. Test the copper level weekly and maintain at .3 ppm.

7. Occasionally visually inspect the PURITY electrodes for calcium build up by looking through the see through cell. Using a flashlight will make it easier to see the electrodes in low light. Check the pH weekly and maintain the pH between 7.2 and 7.6. Keep some liquid Hydrochloric or Muriatic Acid on hand to lower the pH as the chlorine produced has a slightly high pH and you will need to lower it occasionally.

8. Once a week change the switch from the ON position to the OFF position for 10 seconds, and then to the other ON position. This will reverse the polarity to the electrodes keeping them clean. The control should be kept in the two on positions equally and switched to the other position and left in that position all week. Never switch from one ON position to the other ON position without stopping at the OFF position for at least 10 seconds. Reversing the polarity quickly will damage the electrodes and void the warranty.

9. The electrodes should stay clean, but if the electrodes should clog with a white calcium build up the cell must be cleaned chemically. To clean the cell, turn off the power to the pump and PURITY controller. Add 1 part hydrochloric (muriatic) acid to 5 parts water in a covered container. Remove the electrodes and place the electrode cell in the solution for about five minutes. Rinse with water when clean. Do not try to clean the electrodes with a brush or any other object. Reinstall the cell. If you use a container with a tight lid you can store the cleaning solution and use it many times.

10. Now you can relax and enjoy your pool in the nicest, softest, cleanest, safest water you have ever experienced.

11. Keep these instructions in a safe place.

Winter Operation

Do not operate below 40 degrees F or 5 degrees C.

How to Winterize PURITY

Winterize your pool water and pool equipment. Turn off power to pool equipment. Unplug the power supply and store indoors. Turn the power switch to OFF on the controller. If water is present in cells, loosen cell unions and drain water from the cells.

SOLUTION

1. Low Chlorine Level

Cell Power Switch in OFF Position Insufficient Run Time Low Salt Level Electrodes Need Cleaned Worn Out Electrodes Equipment Failure

Turn to either ON Position Make sure the filter pump run time is at least 8 hours every day. In hot summer months it may require 12 hours or more every day. Check salt level and add salt if below 2,600 ppm. Clean electrodes according to cleaning instructions under OPERATION. Check electrodes for wear or damage. The electrodes have a 20,000 hour life and may need replaced if they are old and failing. Check voltage to electrodes. It should be 5VDC. If not, either the power supply has failed or there is a loose connection. Check the power connector on the control box for a loose connection and tighten, clean, or replace. Check Cell Power Switch for proper voltage into and out of switch.

2. High Chlorine level

Units needs to be turned off

Turn the Cell Power switch to the OFF position for 1 to 3 days until the chlorine level returns to the proper level.

3. Cloudy Water

Insufficient Chlorine Level Insufficient run time Dirty filter

Shock water with chlorine and test for at least 5 ppm after 30 minutes. Shock whenever the water just begins to cloud. Make sure the filter pump run time is at least 8 hours every day. In hot summer months it may require 12 hours or more every day. Check and clean filter

4. Scale Build-up on Electrodes

Electrodes need manual cleaning

If there is a scale build-up between the electrodes, clean the electrodes according to the instructions under OPERATION.

4. Blue or copper colored stains on pool surface Note: With proper operation and proper pool chemistry your ionizer will not stain your pool.

Copper level to high pH to high Improper application of granular chlorine Other high mineral levels in water such as iron

Set control to MIN until copper level is below .3 ppm. This may take a few weeks. Add acid to lower pH. The pH should always be tested weekly and maintained at 7.2 to 7.6 Granular chlorine should be pre-dissolved before adding to pool water. Never use Calcium Hypo chlorite as it adds scale and hardens to water. See # 5

5. Black or brown stains on pool surface

Other high mineral levels in water such as iron

Treat water with a stain remover such as Staintrine. Your ionizer will need to be turned off for at least a week and the ionizer level started again.
