Zodiac – eXPERT 7 Salt Chlorinator – 7 g/h

The Zodiac eXPERT 7 is a salt chlorinator producing 7 g/h of chlorine for pools up to 30 m³. It runs on 230 V / 50-60 Hz at 46 W and has a Ø 63 mm cell connection.

Comment ça marche ?

The eXPERT is a salt water chlorinator made up of an electrolysis cell containing the electrodes and a control box. As the salt water from your pool passes through the cell, the electrodes turn chloride ions from the pool salt into chlorine, which disinfects the water.

The chlorine recombines into salt in the pool, so the process repeats as long as the system is running. The cell is built to be long-lasting, and the electrodes clean themselves by polarity reversal, which keeps routine maintenance to a minimum.

Control and connectivity

The eXPERT has a large, backlit touchscreen with big characters, so you can check your pool’s status at a glance. The manufacturer describes it as quick to set up and start up.

Three operating modes are available: Normal, Cover Mode and Boost Mode. The Cover Mode setting can be adjusted. When the unit is linked to a compatible pool automation system, it can also be controlled remotely with a smartphone application.

Water treatment options

The eXPERT range is offered as a chlorinator only, as a chlorinator with pH regulation, or as a chlorinator with pH and ORP regulation. The pH versions measure the water and inject corrective product when needed. The pH/ORP versions also regulate chlorination automatically.

ORP regulation is available on pH/ORP models only, so check the exact version before ordering.

Installation and safety

The cell connection is Ø 63 mm, and PVC reducers are used for Ø 50 mm pipes. The cell should be the last item on the return line to the pool, with the flow detector fitted just before it. The control box belongs in a ventilated, dry technical room protected from frost.

A mechanical flow switch stops chlorine production if there is not enough water flowing through the cell. Indicator lights warn of low water temperature and of salinity that is too low or too high. The unit runs on 230 V / 50-60 Hz and works with water between 5-40°C.

Installation and electrical connection must be carried out by a qualified installer in line with local regulations.

Salt and maintenance

The chlorinator needs salt in the pool water, and the recommended minimum salt level is given for each model. Add the salt before the unit is started, and only start it once the salt has fully dissolved. Do not pour salt directly into the skimmer.

Check the salt level regularly and top up if needed. Disconnect the power before any maintenance. Any work beyond simple user servicing should be done by a qualified professional.
