Operation

The ion system is a disinfection device made up of two copper and silver alloy electrodes.

A direct low-intensity electric current generates an electrochemical reaction that releases metal ions of copper and silver.

Then, there is diffusion of these metal ions in the basin to act against microorganisms: bacteria, viruses, microbes.

Copper acts as a binder on microorganisms and clarifies water in addition to being an effective algaecide. Silver, on the other hand, acts as a powerful bactericide.

It is advisable to use this system in conjunction with the addition of slowly dissolving chlorine (TCL ≈ 91%) from time to time, for better treatment. About 2 to 3 lozenges per month depending on the use.

Using the keypad

Here's how to tune your ion system :

  • Press "START" and the numbers will flash.
  • Hold the "SET DUTY" button to adjust the efficiency value to the desired level.
  • Press "START" again to save the chosen value.

During the first 24 to 48 hours, an efficiency value of 80% must be maintained.
Subsequently, during the regular period, it is necessary to maintain a value between 15% and 20%.

Main advantages :

  • Low maintenance;
  • Inexpensive in the long run;
  • Harmless to swimmers if the particles are properly dosed;
  • Acts as a clarifier;
  • Clear and crystalline water, tasteless, without irritation.

Important

  • The system is sensitive to pH variations which must always remain between 7 and 7.4.
  • The copper level must be between 0.2 ppm and 0.5 ppm.
