AstralPool – Elite Connect CellGuard® pH 12 Salt Chlorinator – 12 g/h

The Elite Connect CellGuard® pH 12 is a salt chlorinator with built-in pH control, producing 12 g/h of chlorine for pools up to 50 m³. It works at a salt level of 5 g/L (4.0-12 g/L) and draws 0.6 A.

How the chlorinator works

Elite Connect CellGuard® pH is an intelligent, expandable salt chlorinator. Once salt is dissolved in the pool water, the electrolysis cell passes an electric current through titanium plates (electrodes) and the salt solution, producing free chlorine. Chlorine is produced while the pool’s recirculation system (pump and filter) is running.

The cell uses the patented CellGuard® self-cleaning technology. It uses pH injection to remove limescale and keep the electrode plates clean, which keeps maintenance to a minimum. The range also offers several production modes: Normal, Boost, Cover and biopool.

Steuerung und Konnektivität

The control panel has a 2.8 inch colour TFT touchscreen. Integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth let you connect to the manufacturer’s app, so pool information is available on your phone as well as on the unit.

Beyond chlorination, the unit acts as a control centre for the pool equipment. Its digital inputs and relay outputs can be set up to run the filter pump, heater and lighting, among other things, and built-in timers cover the pool functions.

pH control is included. Redox (ORP) control can be added with the optional S-Driver ORP (code 77758), and other S-Driver plug-in modules extend the control functions further.

Installation

Assembly, electrical installation and maintenance must be carried out by a qualified installer who has read the manufacturer’s installation and service instructions. The unit runs on 230 V – 50/60 Hz and must be earthed and supplied through a residual current device.

• The cell connects to glued PVC pipework, Ø 63/50 mm, and is best fitted in a by-pass.
• Install the unit upright on a rigid surface in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from flammable materials.
• Do not install it where there is a risk of flooding.

Safety features and maintenance

A gas sensor and a flow switch are fitted as standard, and the unit raises an alarm if the cell is not fully flooded or there is no water flow. It also monitors salinity and includes electrode diagnostics.

Because pH is corrected by dosing, keep an eye on the level of acid in the container and check the pH sensor and dosing pump tubing as part of routine upkeep. Keep the pool water balance within the manufacturer’s recommended parameters. The full manual covers cleaning, sensor calibration and cell maintenance.
