Before you start
The Cell Housings must be installed in the RETURN pipework to the pool. They must always be installed after the filter, gas heater, solar heating or heat pump. The ION Cell can be installed either before or after the OXI Cell.
A Venturi Pipe is incorporated within the OXI Cell Housing designed to eliminate any possible gas build up, although it is always recommended to ensure proper installation to eliminate this from happening.
STEP 1
Connect the OXI Cell Housing horizontally (A or B) in the return line to the pool using high pressure PVC glue. The OXI Cell Housing can be mounted vertically (C) but provision must be made for a gas trap.
STEP 2
Check that the O-rings are clean, greased with silicone grease (DO NOT use petroleum based jelly) and securely located in the Cell Housings.
STEP 3
Fit the OXI Cell and ensure the Locking Ring is firmly tightened by hand. DO NOT USE A TOOL TO TIGHTEN
STEP 4
Connect the Ion Cell Housing in the return line to the pool using high pressure PVC glue.
STEP 4
Connect the OXI and ION cables to the control unit.
NOTE: The pump rating should not exceed 8amps. All 15amp pumps must be plugged into a 15amp wall socket.
WARNING:
- We DO NOT recommend the use of valves on the inlet or outlet of the 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 installers 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 to collect and build up in any part of the installation.
- DO NOT apply priming fluid to the Cell Housing, it is not needed and may react
with the plastic.
