Section 3b – OPERATION

Salt Requirements

It is important that with typical pools, a salt residual of 2500 to 3500 ppm (2,5 – 3,5 g/l) be maintained at all times for peak

efficiency. The Pool Pilot™ Digital can also handle special application salt levels of up to 35,000 ppm (35,0 g/l) without any

adverse effects to the unit.

NOTE: HIGH Salt level does not affect purifier production but can cause corrosion problems with metallic fixtures, light

rings, ladders and handrails. Maintain the salt level in the recommended range.

The amount of salt required depends on the size of the pool and the present salt level. As the salt is being added, we

recommend running the circulation pump continually for 24 hours with the bottom main drain opened. Brushing the salt into

the bottom main drain will assist in the dissolve rate and prevent possible staining with certain types of salt.

We recommend the use of AutoSoft Plus™ Water Conditioning Salt. AutoSoft Plus™ salt contains 99.8% pure Sodium

Chloride (NaCl) without Iodine or the Anti-Caking additive, Yellow Prussiate of Soda (YPS). Iodine and YPS can cause a

localized tint to the water or yellow staining on the cementitious finish if allowed to rest undissolved on the finish for extended

periods of time. AutoSoft Plus™ is blended with the proper amount of stabilizer to maintain a proper level within the

recommended range when added according to the salt chart on the box.

Granular Salt, Table Salt, Solar Salt or Water Conditioner Pellets can also be used but will have different dissolve rates. If the

salt you use contains Iodine or YPS, constant brushing will help the dissolve rate and prevent staining due to the additives in

the salt. Ensure that the salt you use contain a minimum purity of 99% Sodium Chloride (NaCl).

NOTE: Do not use Rock Salt due to its high levels of impurities.

USE THE DIGITAL DISPLAY TO TEST YOUR WATER FOR SALT LEVEL FIRST, which then shows the amount of

salt needed to achieve/maintain 3000-ppm. Salt readings below 100 ppm will show extremely high and requires the chart

below to determine correct amount of salt needed.

Note: The above chart is based on 1 lb. (2.2 kg) of salt added to 1,000 gallons (3.8 m³) to increase your salt residual 120-ppm.

Balance your water chemistry according to the Water Chemistry Parameters shown above. Add the proper amount of salt

(see Salt Requirement Chart) and circulate prior to starting your Pool Pilot™ Digital.

Set Purifier % setting to 50% and operate normally. For the first two weeks, test the water every 2-3 days for proper

Purifier levels. Raise or Lower the Purifier % Setting as needed, according to your test results.

If Purifier % setting is 75% or higher, INCREASE the CELL POWER one level and reduce Purifier to 50% and readjust.

If Purifier % setting is 25% or lower, DECREASE the CELL POWER one level and increase Purifier to 50% and

readjust. (See section 4.5 on Pg. 9)

Once your Purifier % Setting has been established, you will only need to adjust your level according to increased bather

usage or heavy rainfalls that can quickly consume chlorine levels, or operate the Boost Cycle.
