What
makes the Jandy AquaPure system unique?
1.
Stand Alone Tri-Sensor
The
AquaPure system uses a unique Tri-Sensor to
measure flow, temp and salinity. By using a separate
sensor, the accuracy of the salt reading maintained despite
the condition of the cell.
Most
(if not all) of the other systems measure the salt level by
measuring conductivity through the cell. There is a
problem with that method. If the cell gets scaled up or
fails for some reason, it can give a false low salt reading,
even if the salt level is OK. Suppose you add a bunch of
salt to the pool (thinking the salt level is low when it is
actually OK). What happens? Yup . . . now you have
a salt level that is way to high and now you have to drain the
pool down.
The
Tri-Sensor mounts in the plumbing prior to the cell and
measures flow, salt level and temperature.

The
Complete Jandy Package
The
AquaPure system is a part of Jandy's complete line of
pool equipment. Jandy manufactures a complete line of
pumps, filters, heaters, heat pumps, valves, chlorinators,
controls and salt systems. The AquaPure software
is currently being revised to integrate with the AquaLink
electronic control system.
3.
In-House Manufacturing
Without
a doubt, the most critical part of the salt system is the
cell. In any system, the cell is the component that is
most prone
to failure, if not manufactured to the highest
standards. It is also the most expensive part to
replace. When Jandy purchased the AquaPure system, the
purchased the entire manufacturing company, Huron Tech.
Huron Tech manufactures its own titanium plates and heat
exchangers for their salt systems and heat pumps.
Keeping this manufacturing process in house insures quality
control and also keeps the cost of replacement parts down.
How does the Jandy AquaPure system
work?
|
|
The
System
The
system creates a small amount of chlorine in the pool from the
mild salt level that is in the pool. When the
chlorine is used, it turns back into salt, ready
to turn into chlorine again.
The
cell reverses its electrical polarity periodically
to eliminate any scale buildup. |

The
Control Panel
The
control box provides key information about the
operation of the unit. This allows the
homeowner to know exactly what his happening with
his salt system. |

Converting
a Pool to Salt
1.
Install the System
2.
Raise Salt to 3000 ppm
3.
Let the system do the work |
 |
The
control box is wired to the load side of the
timer so the salt system goes off when the
pump goes off.
The
cell is plumbed into the return line after
the heater so that the chlorine that is
produced goes straight to the pool or
spa. |
