3 OPERATION
To achieve optimal performance from the ozone system, the pool must be
as clean as possible to start with.
1. Backwash or clean filters one day before starting the ozone generator.
2. Superchlorinate pool water using a chlorine based shock treatment prior
to ozone system start-up.
3. Test pool chemistry and adjust pH between 7.4 and 7.6. Adjust total
alkalinity between 80 and 120 ppm.
4. Run pool filtration continuously for 24 hours prior to starting ozone
system.
3B. Initial System Start-Up
Upon completing all of the generator system connections and cleaning the
pool as outlined above, you are ready to start the ozone generator.
1. Check electrical connections.
2. Check for proper voltage.
3. Turn on pool circulation system.
3C. Normal Operation
Indicator Lights: When the pool's circulation system starts, the DEL Ozone
generator will power up and the green indicator lights on the ozone cells
will illuminate. Open the enclosure door to verify that all indicator lights are
green.
3D. System Shut-Down
The following sequence of steps must be followed for servicing or for storage.
1. Disconnect the power to the ozone generator.
2. After the generator has been shut down, the pool water circulation
pump may be turned off.
3. If the system is to be shut down for an extended period, disconnect the
ozone tube from the unit.
3E. Water Chemistry
Regular chlorine or bromine testing should be performed as normal. Ozone
will be eliminating the majority of contaminants. Therefore, only a small
amount of chemicals will need to be added - just enough to maintain an
appropriate residual level of chlorine or bromine. Ozone is pH neutral thus
minimizing pH adjustments.
