• Cost-Effective and Eco-Friendly:
  By generating chlorine from salt, you reduce reliance on costly chemical treatments. The energy-efficient design and minimal maintenance requirements translate into long-term savings.

• Consistent Water Quality:
  With precise digital controls and adjustable settings, the RP30 ensures steady chlorine levels, helping to prevent algae and maintain balanced water chemistry for a healthier, more comfortable swimming environment.

• Robust and Reliable:
  Constructed with high-grade materials in Australia, the unit is built to endure the elements and deliver exceptional performance even in demanding climates.

How It Works

The Saltmate RP30 Chlorinator c/w 12V Light Transformer utilizes saltwater electrolysis to continuously produce chlorine. Dissolved salt in the pool water is converted into chlorine gas through a low-voltage DC current applied across the electrolytic cell. The generated chlorine instantly dissolves into the water as an effective sanitizer, keeping your pool crystal clear. Meanwhile, the self-cleaning mechanism periodically reverses the polarity of the electrodes to dislodge scale, ensuring the cell remains efficient. The digital timer coordinates the operation of both the pump and the chlorinator, and with the added 12V light transformer, your pool gains an appealing glow after dark.

Installation and Maintenance

Installation

• Site & Power Pack Placement:
  Choose a sheltered, well-ventilated location near your pool’s pump and filtration system. Mount the power pack at least 1–1.5 meters above ground level and connect it to a dedicated 240V outlet with proper circuit protection.

• Plumbing Integration:
  Install the electrolytic cell as the final component in your pool’s plumbing line—after the filter but before the water returns to the pool. Use standard 40mm or 50mm PVC pipes (adapters provided as needed). Ensure the cell is mounted horizontally to optimize gas trapping and chlorine generation.

• Electrical Connections:
  Follow the provided wiring diagram to connect the cell lead to the junction box on the underside of the power pack. Secure all connections properly and replace the junction box cover to protect against moisture and environmental damage.

Maintenance

• Routine Water Testing:
  Regularly test your pool water to ensure salt levels remain between 4000–6000ppm (ideally ~5000ppm), pH is maintained between 7.2–7.6, and total alkalinity is within 80–120ppm. Monitor free chlorine levels to keep them in the 1.5–3.0ppm range, adjusting the chlorine output as needed.

• Cell Inspection and Cleaning:
  Despite the self-cleaning feature, visually inspect the clear cell housing monthly (or more frequently if water hardness is high) for any signs of calcium or scale buildup. If deposits are evident, turn off the system, disconnect power, and remove the cell. Soak the electrodes in a recommended cleaning solution for 5–10 minutes, rinse thoroughly, and reassemble—remember to lubricate the O-ring before reinstallation.

• Timer Settings and Operation:
  Program the timer based on your pool’s usage and ambient temperature. In high-use or hot weather, extend operating hours to maintain optimal chlorine levels. Regularly verify the battery backup functionality to ensure that your settings are retained during power interruptions.

• Safety Checks:
  Periodically inspect all electrical connections, wiring, and mounting fixtures for signs of wear or corrosion. Confirm that the flow-sensitive switch is operational to guarantee proper water circulation and safe system operation.

Warranty

The Saltmate RP30 Chlorinator c/w 12V Light Transformer is protected by a robust 5-Year Manufacturer Warranty:

• 2 Years Full Warranty: Covers the power pack and electrolytic cell for any defects in materials or workmanship.

• 3 Years Pro-Rata Warranty: Provides additional partial coverage on the cell electrodes beyond the initial two years.

This warranty underscores Saltmate’s commitment to quality and ensures that your investment is safeguarded for long-term, hassle-free pool maintenance.

Experience the ultimate in automated pool care with the Saltmate RP30 Chlorinator c/w 12V Light Transformer—where advanced chlorination meets ambient pool lighting, delivering pristine water quality and enhanced outdoor aesthetics with minimal effort.
