Before attempting installation or service, ensure that all power to the circuit supplying power to the system is disconnected/turned off at the circuit breaker. It is recommended, but not mandatory that the iChlor Power Center be connected to a circuit protected by a ground fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI). When using electrical products, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following: • Grounding (earth bonding) is required. The unit should be installed by a qualified service person and grounded. • Install to allow access to cell buttons and power center. • Read Safety Precautions and Important Instructions (page i and ii). Before attempting any electrical wiring, be sure to read and follow Safety Instructions. Wiring should only be performed by a qualified professional. • Install the iChlor unit a minimum of three (3) feet away from the heater outlet. • Pipe couplings: Schedule 80, maximum pressure 50 psi at 70° F (21° C). • Operate unit with minimum flow of 20 gpm. For high flow applications (higher than 80 gpm), use a bypass loop (see page 5) for best flow sensing. • Provide at least 12"-18" of straight pipe in front of the cell inlet. iCHLOR® Salt Chlorine Generator Installation and User's Guide
