5. സജ്ജീകരണവും ഇൻസ്റ്റാളേഷനും
The Briidea BR-159 Salt Chlorine Generator is designed for easy installation without the need for complex plumbing. Follow these steps:
- Prepare Your Spa/Hot Tub: Ensure your hot tub or swim spa is clean and filled with water.
- ഉപ്പ് ചേർക്കുക: Add appropriate pool/spa salt (sodium chloride) to your water. The recommended salt level for optimal operation is typically between 2000-3000 ppm (parts per million). Refer to your spa's volume to calculate the required amount of salt. Dissolve the salt completely before proceeding.
- Position the Controller: Mount the controller unit above ground in a dry, protected area, away from direct water exposure. Ensure it is within reach of a GFCI-protected power outlet.
- Submerge the Chlorinator Cell: Place the chlorinator cell directly into the hot tub or swim spa water. Ensure it is fully submerged and positioned where water can circulate freely around it.
- പവർ ബന്ധിപ്പിക്കുക: Plug the chlorinator cell's cable into the controller, then plug the controller's power adapter into the GFCI-protected electrical outlet.
- പ്രാരംഭ പരിശോധന: The LED indicators on the controller will display the current salt level (Low, Normal, High) and water temperature.

6. ഓപ്പറേഷൻ
The BR-159 features a built-in timer/controller for automated operation. Once installed and powered on, the unit will begin to generate chlorine.
- LED സൂചകങ്ങൾ: The controller's LED display shows the water temperature and the current operating status. The "Salt Level" indicators (Low, Normal, High) provide a quick visual reference for your spa's salinity.
- ടൈമർ ക്രമീകരിക്കുന്നു: Use the controls on the unit (or a connected app if available for your model) to set the daily operating time. The optimal run time will vary based on spa size, usage, and desired chlorine levels. Start with a recommended duration (e.g., 3-4 hours for a typical hot tub) and adjust as needed based on water testing.
- Salt Concentration Detection: The device continuously monitors the salt level. If the salt level is too low, the unit may reduce or stop chlorine production. If too high, it may indicate a need to dilute the water.
- ക്ലോറിൻ ഉത്പാദനം: The chlorinator cell converts salt into chlorine, which sanitizes the water. You may observe small bubbles emanating from the cell during operation, indicating active chlorine generation.

7. പരിപാലനം
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficiency of your salt chlorine generator.
- Water Chemistry Monitoring: Regularly test your spa water for chlorine levels, pH, and alkalinity. Adjust the generator's run time or add balancing chemicals as needed to maintain recommended levels. Recommended spa water conditions: Salt Level: 2000-3000 ppm, Free Chlorine: 2.0-4.0 ppm (ideal 3.0-4.0 ppm), pH: 7.2-7.8, Alkalinity: 80-120 ppm, Stabilizer (Cyanuric Acid): 50-80 ppm.
- Cell Cleaning: The titanium electrodes are designed for long-term performance (up to 3,000 hours) and feature polarity reversal to minimize scale buildup. However, periodic inspection and cleaning of the cell may be necessary, especially in hard water areas.
- യൂണിറ്റിലേക്ക് വൈദ്യുതി വിച്ഛേദിക്കുക.
- Remove the chlorinator cell from the water.
- Inspect for scale buildup (white, flaky deposits) on the electrodes.
- If buildup is present, soak the cell in a mild acid solution (e.g., diluted muriatic acid or a commercial cell cleaning solution) according to the solution's instructions. Do not scrape the electrodes with metal objects.
- Rinse thoroughly with fresh water before re-installing.
- Salt Level Management: The unit's salt concentration detection helps you monitor salinity. Add salt if the indicator shows "Low" or if water tests confirm low levels. If the indicator shows "High," partially drain and refill the spa with fresh water to dilute the salt concentration.

പൊതുവായ പ്രശ്നങ്ങളും അവയുടെ പരിഹാരങ്ങളും അറിയാൻ ഈ വിഭാഗം കാണുക.
| പ്രശ്നം | സാധ്യമായ കാരണം | പരിഹാരം |
|---|---|---|
| ക്ലോറിൻ ഉത്പാദനമില്ല | Low salt level, dirty cell, power issue, insufficient run time. | Check salt level and add salt if needed. Clean the chlorinator cell. Ensure unit is powered on and connected correctly. Increase daily run time. |
| "Low Salt" indicator on | Actual low salt concentration, sensor issue. | Test water salinity with a separate kit. Add salt gradually and allow it to dissolve. If salt level is correct, contact support. |
| "High Salt" indicator on | Actual high salt concentration, sensor issue. | Partially drain spa and refill with fresh water to dilute. Test salinity. If salt level is correct, contact support. |
| Controller display is off | No power, loose connection. | Check power outlet and connections. Ensure GFCI has not tripped. |
