7 CONTROL PANEL OVERVIEW iCHLOR® SALT CHLORINE GENERATOR      Salt Level LED CERTIFIED TO NSF/ANSI 50 The iChlor® SCG checks the pool water salinity regularly and displays the levels as follows: • Green LED: Good salt. The pool water salt level is between 3000 ppm and 4500. • Green LED (Flashing): Salt level is above 4500 ppm. The salt level is high which increases the risk of corrosion and deterioration of pool equipment and surfaces in and around the pool. • Red LED: Low salt. The salt level is between 2600 ppm and 3000 ppm. The iChlor SCG will be producing chlorine at reduced efficiency. It is highly recommended to add salt. See (*) Note below. • Red LED (Flashing) Very low salt. The salt level is between 2000 ppm and 2600 ppm. The iChlor SCG will produce chlorine at a "reduced" output rate of approximate 25% less than output selection. It is highly recommended to add salt. See (*) Note below. • Red LED (Flashing): Not enough salt. The salt level has fallen below 2000 ppm. The iChlor SCG will not produce chlorine until salt is added. The iChlor SCG is OFF. See (*) Note below. Note (*): After every salt addition, pump should be allowed to run for at least 24 hours for proper dilution. Salinity readings should only be taken, after the dilution period.  Status LEDs Cell: Shows the status of the iChlor. • Green: iChlor is operating normally and producing chlorine. • No Light: iChlor is off and not producing chlorine. It may be in an off-period of the sanitizing cycle and will return on shortly. • Red: iChlor is in "Standby" mode (system off, no chlorine production) due to a cold water condition. The iChlor will resume to normal operation mode, including salinity report, once water temperature rises above 52° F (11° C). In this mode, the display will read "COLD" to indicate the condition. • Short Red Flash: Unit has detected a malfunction on the temperature sensor, and will indicate it with short red flashes either while the cell is off (LED off), or while the cell is ON (Green LED). The unit will continue normal operation, but salinity indication might not be accurate until flow switch is replaced. • Green (Flashing): iChlor needs to be inspected. The blades may have calcium buildup or any other condition that cause a lack of conductivity. The iChlor is not producing chlorine. In this mode, the display will read "CELL" to indicate the condition. Flow: This light indicates the status of water flowing through the iChlor. • Red: Insufficient water flow through the iChlor, no chlorine is being produced. • Green: Sufficient water flow to produce chlorine. • Short Flickering: Short flickering: iChlor is in communication with an IntelliFlo pump, and it is monitoring the pump status. This short flickering will be present as long as there is communication with the pump, either with no flow (RED FLOW LED) or with good flow (GREEN FLOW LED). - Continue to Next Page - iCHLOR® Salt Chlorine Generator Installation and User's Guide
