1.2 Important Safety Instrucons
A
To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit young children to use this product unless they
have been trained by the person responsible for their safety and they acknowledge their
ability to use such equipment. To reduce the risk of accidents or incidents, service on the unit
should only be performed by your local Pool Pro Professional.
When mixing acid with water, ALWAYS ADD ACID TO WATER. NEVER ADD WATER TO ACID.
DO NOT PLUG UNIT IN IF CARTON HAS BEEN WET.
CHLORINE GAS BUILD-UP CAN OCCUR WITH IMPROPER WIRING: To reduce the risk of
personal injury the Power Pack is designed so that the Electrolytic Cell will only receive power
when the pool pump is on. Otherwise, dangerous chlorine gas build-up can occur. If the
pump is not installed to the AC Socket (pump outlet) on the Power Pack then the installer
must ensure that the Electrolytic Cell is never energised when the pool pump is OFF or water
is not flowing through the unit.

nformation
A•Only add chemicals in the method and quantities as indicated on the packaging provided
or advised by your local Pool Pro Professional. If in doubt of any results you achieve, do
not hesitate to consult with your local Pool Pro Professional.
•Check your salt levels with your local Pool Pro Professional before installing your unit.
•Salt levels should ideally be 3000-3500ppm and no more than 4000ppm.
•NEVER ADD SALT DIRECTLY TO THE SKIMMER BOX. This high concentration of salt will
pass through your filtration, pump and other pool equipment.
•Salt levels above 4000ppm may overload the unit and cause excessive heat.
•For all new pool installations please seek advice from your pool builder before adding salt
as some new surfaces request no salt to be added when initially completed.
•The Pool Pro unit is designed for use with swimming pool water balanced in accordance
with the Langlier Saturation Index with a pH range of 6.8-7.8.
•For best performance and operation of your Pool Pro unit, certain water balances must be
maintained within your swimming pool. Have your water tested regularly. Transport the
test water in an opaque container and have the test done as soon as possible for the most
accurate results. See page 5 for a list of recommended water chemistry levels.
2. GENERAL OVERVIEW
Congratulations on your recent purchase of your Pool Pro Salt & Mineral Chlorinator. Please take a moment
to read through the entire manual before installing your new unit. Your chlorinator must be installed and
operated as specified.
While every effort has been made to ensure that the information contained in this guide is accurate and
complete, no liability can be accepted for any errors or omissions. Pool Pro reserves the right to change the
specifications of the hardware and software described herein at any time without prior notice.
Please remember that your Pool Pro Salt & Mineral Chlorinator is not designed to chemically maintain your
pool water and keep it balanced, but rather to produce chlorine from a mild salt solution within the water.
We encourage regular water testing, balancing and correction if and when required to maintain the
recommended balanced levels of your pool water. This is a vital part of a complete maintenance program
and will ensure trouble free performance as well as a healthy and sparkling clean pool.
There are two types of designs in the Pool Pro Range:
•A standard model known as CPP which is a non-reversing design and calcium build up needs to be
manually cleaned periodically from the electrode plates.
•A reverse polarity model known as CPPS which is a reversing design and automatically changes
direction every 6-10hrs (depending on your setting). This change of polarity causes the calcium to
dislodge and keep the Cell plates clean. Please note occasional cleaning of the electrode plates may be
necessary.
Thank you again for choosing a Pool Pro Salt & Mineral Chlorinator.
We wish you many happy years of swimming in your crystal clear pool.
2.1 Recommendations and Helpful Hints
•
Read and keep your manual in a safe place.
•
Increase chlorine production when temperature goes up.
•
Increase chlorine production when number of swimmers increases.
•
Use Stabiliser (Cyanuric Acid) to stabilise chlorine in Pool.
•
Decrease production when temperature goes down (during winter).
•
Take pool water sample to your local Pool Pro Professional at least twice a month.

3. POOL PREPARATION
Important Notes
•TIP 1: If you turn the Output Control Knob fully clockwise and the Meter needle reaches the top of
the GREEN then you have enough salt. DO NOT ADD ANY MORE SALT.
•TIP 2: If you turn the Output Control Knob fully clockwise and the Meter needle reaches the RED
then you have either just enough salt (if just reaches RED) or too much salt (if it goes in to the RED).
DO NOT ADD ANY MORE SALT.
•The colder the water the lower your output but this does not mean you need more salt. There will
always be less chlorine demand in colder water.
•We recommend 3.5kg of salt per 1,000L (1m3) of pool water. A 50,000L (50m3) new pool needs
approximately 175kg of salt to achieve 3000ppm.
•The unit can operate on mineral/magnesium chloride salts, allow an extra 20-30% on the ppm for
these types of salts.
•Salt should always be added to the shallow end of the pool and brushed until thoroughly dissolved.
Do not let the salt settle on the pool floor as this may cause damage or staining to the surface. Use
your pool brush to mix the salt into the water.
•Running the pump will mix the water and help the salt to dissolve. Only run the pump in the first
8-12 hours (ensure the Cell is switched off) to allow the salt to dissolve.
•Low salt levels (<1500ppm) will destroy the coating on the Cell and void the warranty.
•The Pool Pro unit is designed for use with swimming pool water balanced in accordance with the
Langlier Saturation Index with a pH range of 6.8-7.8. As previously advised, for best performance
and operation of your Pool Pro unit, certain water balances must be maintained within your
swimming pool. Have your water tested regularly. Transport the test water in an opaque container
and have the test done as soon as possible for the most accurate results.

.1 Power Pack Installaon
A
•The Pool Pro Power Pack has an Ingress Protection Rating of IP23 enabling it to be installed
outdoors. Regulations require that the Power Pack shall be installed outside the pool zone.
•The Power Pack shall be installed according to AS/NZS 3000 wiring rules.
•The Power Pack should be installed in a well ventilated position ideally away from sunlight
and rain to prolong life and at least 1m above ground to prevent run off water entry.
•Ensure that the Power Pack is not stored near chemicals, fertilisers or in a closed
unventilated shed with similar products as the fumes will cause excessive corrosion and
damage to the Power Pack and Control Board.
•When mounting the Power Pack on a post it is recommended to install a flat panel at least
the size of the Power Pack to act as a waterproof backing plate.
•Mount the Power Pack with the Green Plugs and Mounting Screws provided.
•Fit the Black Plastic Rivets that hold the Acrylic Front in place as follows:
- Remove the outer plastic tube from the inner pin on both rivets.
- Align the Acrylic Front and insert the outer tube on both sides.
- Insert the inner pin that will expand the tube and hold the Acrylic Front in place.
The Power Pack should be mounted no further than 1.5 metres from the Chlorinator
Cell, for ease of operation of the controls on the Power Pack.

.2 Cell Electrode Installaon
•Connect the Cell Housing horizontally in the return line to the pool (use reducing bushes
supplied if 40mm PVC pipe) using high pressure PVC glue. The Cell Housing can be
mounted vertically but provision must be made for a gas trap.
•Direction of water flow though the Cell Housing is not critical although we do recommend
entry from the closed end of the Cell Housing and exit from the end closest to the Cell
Locking Ring. The reason is to cause less water hammer over time on the Cell plates.
•Check that the O-Ring is clean, greased with silicone grease (DO NOT use petroleum based
jelly) and securely located in the Cell Housing.
•Fit the Cell Electrode and ensure Cell Locking Ring is firmly tightened by hand (DO NOT use
a tool to tighten).
•Connect the leads from the Cell Electrode to the Junction Box under the Power Pack
ensuring the colours match that indicated on the Junction Box (RED - closest to the front,
WHITE - in the middle and BLACK - closest to the rear).
•Plug the Power Pack 3 pin plug into a suitable weatherproof RCD protected 10amp outlet
and then plug the pump into the 3 pin AC Socket located at the bottom of the Power Pack.

Important Notes
A•The pump rating must not exceed 5amps.
•Saltwater may damage Junction Box and electrical components in the Power Pack.
•DO NOT use a drill to tighten Junction Box screws - this may strip them - use a hand
held screw driver.
WARNING:
•We DO NOT recommend the use of valves on the inlet or outlet of the Cell Housing. If
you do use a valve then it is important to ensure that the valve cannot deadhead
(lock closed) while the pump is running. It is the installer's responsibility to ensure
some form of flow control is installed in this instance and it disables the pump.
•ALWAYS ensure that pipe work and equipment do not allow gases generated from
the Cell to collect and build up in any part of the installation.
•It is RECOMMENDED that the Cell Housing be installed horizontally to create a
natural gas trap that acts as a safety device. Installation in any other way may cause
explosion, injury or death if the installer does not allow for gas removal.
•The Cell Housing must be installed in the RETURN pipework to the pool. It must
always be installed after the filter, gas heater, solar heating or heat pump.
•DO NOT apply priming fluid to the Cell Housing, it is not needed and may react with
the plastic.

.POWER PACK OPERATION
This switch position determines whether the unit is manually turned on or automatically
controlled by the Timer.
•Auto Position - the time clock controls the operating hours. See section 6 for Timer Setting.
•Manual Position - the unit is on and both the pump AC Socket and Cell will be powered up.
This switch position determines whether the Cell is turned on or off when power is supplied to it
from the above Timer Switch.
•OFF Position - even if the Timer Switch is powered on there will still be no power to the Cell.
•ON Position - if Timer Switch is powered on then there will be power to the Cell.
•Changing Direction - while the unit is running you can change direction by turning off the Cell
Switch, wait 3 seconds then turn it on again. The direction should change. If it does not then
repeat this again and it should change direction.
A Circuit Breaker is an automatically operated electrical switch designed to protect an electrical
circuit from damage caused by overcurrent, overload or short circuit. It can be reset by pressing
the button in after it has tripped. It may be damaged if you supply excessively high levels of salt
through the Cell.
5
The AC Socket allows the pump to be electrically operated and controlled by the Power Pack.
WARNING: If you fail to control the pump this way then you must allow for a flow switch
mechanism to control the electrical supply to the Power Pack, so as to prevent gas build-up if the
pump stops.
The Junction Box allows rectified DC voltage to be coupled to the Cell. This is where the Cell
cable is connected to the Power Pack.
Simply turning the BLACK Output Control Knob counter clockwise decreases output and clockwise
increases it. Always leave it in a position where the Production Output Display Meter needle is in
the GREEN (never in the RED).
This LED serves a double function. It shows that there is power to the Main Control PCB and also
flashes every one second to indicate all is OK with the power it is receiving. The flashing 1 second
pulse is normal and not a fault indicator.

.8 Producon Output Display Meter
•When the unit is turned on full (Black Output Control Knob fully clockwise) the needle
should reach the top of the GREEN, this shows that the water has the correct conductivity
and the salt level is correct.
•If the needle is slightly low (in the GREEN area below 90% mark), it may be that the water is
very cold, more salt may be needed or possibly a faulty Cell (see Troubleshooting). In cold
months it is normal to operate as low as 50% and more salt is not needed.
•If the needle reaches the RED then you have either just enough salt (if just reaches RED) or
too much salt (if it goes in to the RED). If unsure refer to your nearest Pool Pro Professional
for a water test before adding more salt.

PPS model only)
•This switch is only available in the reverse polarity models (self cleaning). The micro-
processor will automatically change direction of the current flow approximately every 10
hours (in the IF NORMAL position) and 6 hours (in the IF HIGH position) approximately, even
if the power is interrupted.
•You should always start off by running on the IF NORMAL position but if you have hard
water (high calcium) and the build-up on your electrode takes place too quickly, then you
can shorten the reversing hours by setting the switch to the IF HIGH position.
•The platinum coating on the Cell plates may not last as long on the hard setting as a
percentage of the wear on the coating is related to the number of current switches.

.10 Start Up Procedure
•Ensure 10amp wall outlet supply switch is turned "OFF".
•Water Hardness Switch in "IF NORMAL" position (or "IF HIGH" if required - see 5.9).
•"OUTPUT" Control Knob turned fully counter clockwise.
•Cell Switch in the "OFF" position.
•Timer Switch in the "MANUAL" position.
•Turn the 10amp wall outlet supply switch "ON".
•The pump should start up and prime.
•Allow the pump to run for 2 minutes and repair any leaks if needed.
•Turn the Cell Switch to "ON" and slowly turn the "OUTPUT" Control Knob clockwise until the
meter needle reaches the top of the GREEN indicator.
•Set the Timer to run 6-10 hours in the summer and 3-6 hours in the winter. Refer to section
6 Timer Setting for further details.
•Now turn the Timer Switch to "AUTO" and leave it here to run automatically.

.TIMER SETTING
AYour Pool Pro unit comes with a simple to operate quartz mechanical Timer which has a built
in battery back up function.
This area of set up is critical and we recommend you take time to read it and understand why
we recommend certain settings.
Obviously sunlight and higher bather loads in summer dissipate more chlorine than in winter.
That is why you need to check your chlorine reading regularly and adjust your settings when
required.
It is recommended to run the unit for 2 periods every day (early morning and evening) when
the sun extracts the least amount of chlorine from the pool, giving it time to do its work.
e
/I\
Ideally, run for 4 hours in the morning (6-10am) and 4 hours in the evening (4-8pm).
For a smaller pool you can run less hours. In extreme weather it may be necessary to run
longer hours.
* In winter you should lower your running time by up to 50% of your summer setting
depending on your free chlorine levels. You should ideally run 2-3 hours in the morning and
2-3 hours in the evening. This preserves and extends the life of your equipment.
AThe Timer Switch will override the Timer when it is in the Manual position. For timer
settings to control the unit the Timer Switch needs to be in the AUTO position.
WARNING: ALWAYS TURN THE CLOCK FACE CLOCKWISE, NEVER ANTI-CLOCKWISE.
You will strip plastic gears and damage the Timer.
