1 DA-GEN Dryden Aqua Generator USER MANUAL DESCRIPTION The DA-GEN is an innovative water treatment system and additional an intelligent pool controller. The DA-GEN combines Hydrolysis with Electrolysis with a low mineral content. The Hydrolysis produces free radicals and other oxygen compounds like ozone, peroxide and persulfate. All these oxidants destroy organic substances and pathogens in the water. Free radicals are the strongest oxidants we know. They oxidise and decompose in a few seconds. To guarantee a safe residual disinfection the DA-GEN produces a very small amount of chlorine. In combination with DAISY we need a very low mineral content of to kg MgCl or 0. to. kg NaCl per m. The DA-GEN also controls all your pool equipment centrally. Thanks to WiFi you can check and control your pool system /.

2 INITIAL WATER ADJUSTMENTS Water adjustments Adjust the alkalinity between 00 and 00 ppm. Adjust the ph between.0 and.. Adjust the chlorine between 0. and 0. ppm. Adding activator/salt to the water We recommend to addition of to kg magnesium chloride or kg of normal salt per m of water. The TDS should be at around 00. Add the magnesium chloride or salt directly to your swimming pool water or in the balance tank and let the system run. The system will operate without problems with salt concentrations from g/l to 0 g/l. In outdoor pools it is necessary to use ACO. MAINTENANCE Cleaning the titanium cell If necessary, carry out a monthly visual inspection. To clean the cell: Remove the cell from its support (after turning the filtration system off and closing the necessary valves). Place the cell for no more than 0 minutes in % hydrochloric acid (l of acid for each 0l of water). Once the incrustations have softened remove with a hose to complete cleaning the cell. DO NOT USE METALLIC OR SHARP OBJECTS TO REMOVE INCRUSTATIONS. Scratching the edges or surface of the cell will make it vulnerable to chemicals, deteriorate the cell and invalidate the guarantee. Monthly checks SALT CONCENTRATION: ~00 ppm TDS TITANIUM CELL: Visual inspection to detect incrustations. General maintenance The pool must be vacuumed as usual and the skimmers emptied whenever necessary. FILTER BACKWASHING: Once every week for to minutes should be sufficient (providing the filter pressure does not exceed bar, in which case a filter clean may be necessary). VERY IMPORTANT: Make sure the cell is off while cleaning the filter. If the system controls the filtration pump, use the option filter cleaning of the programmed filtration mode. See section Filtration / Filter Cleaning of the General Installation Guide. DOSING PUMPS: Check regularly to ensure that the container contains liquid to prevent the dosing pump from running dry. ph / Redox / CONDUCTIVITY PROBES: The probes must be cleaned and recalibrated every to months. To clean the probe insert in distilled water (clear liquid). After each clean the probes must be re-calibrated. Also: the probes should never dry out and must be kept wet if stored (when emptying the pool for winterising, make sure to store the probe head in water).

3 TROUBLESHOOTING Blank display Check if ON/OFF switch is illuminated. Check the connection wire between display and motherboard. Check the. A fuse of the device it could have tripped due to overload. Check the power supply 0V/0Hz. If the problem persists contact TECHNICAL SERVICE Excess of chlorine in the water Lower electrolysis cell intensity. If your system includes automatic Redox control, check the Redox setpoint value. Reduce it by 0 to 00 mv. If your system includes free chlorine measurment, adjust the setpoint value. Check redox probe and calibrate it if necessary. Electrolysis does not reach the setpoint value Low water temperature. Check the salt concentration (TDS) in water. Check the cell status (it may be incrusted or calcified). Clean the cell according to the instructions in section. Clean the flow detector situated in the cell housing. Check that the titanium cell is not worn out (remember that the cell is guaranteed for,000 hours, approx. - years of summer usage). Titanium cell incrusted in less than month Very hard waters with a high ph and total alkalinity: balance water adjusting ph and total alkalinity. Check to ensure that the system automatically changes polarity approximately every 00 minutes. Consult with our technical service to consider accelerating the polarity change (auto-cleaning). WARNING: Accelerating the polarity change decreases the cell life (,000 hours) proportionally. Reduce the ph set point to.0 Free chlorine level doesn t reach the setpoint value Increase the filtration hours to hours Increase the electrolysis level. Check the salt concentraion (TDS) in the water. Setpoint value app. 00 ppm. In an outdoor pool: Add ACO to the water. Check if the reagents in test kit are in date. Check if the temperature or number of users has risen. Alarm AL and ph dosing pump stopped The maximum dosing time (standard 00 min.) is accomplished and the acid dosing pump stops in order to avoid the acidification of the water. To delete the message and to restart the metering press ESC ( ). Do the following verifications in order to preclude errors on the device: Verify if the ph probe reading is correct (if not, calibrate the probe or substitute it with a new one); Verify if the acid/base reservoir is full and if the dosing pump is working correctly; Verify the variable speed of the dosing pump. Electrolysis display shows FLOW Check flow detector cable. Clean for incrustations of the flow detector at the top of the cell housing. Check to see if system is free of air (probe must always be submerged). Rust on metallic components in the pool Metallic elements lack standardised earth connection. Contact an electrician to solve the problem. Rusted components are not stainless steel (minimum /VA/.). The salt concentration (TDS) is too high. Polarity reaches maximum intensity, but polarity (auto clean) does not reach maximum intensity If the salt concentration is correct (- kg/m MgCl or kg/m NaCl): The cell is reaching its end of life. As of this moment check the intensity every -0 days. When polarity does not reach medium intensity, we recommend substituting the cell for a new one if it happens during the summer period. If it happens during winter, change the cell before the next summer period. WARNING Keep chemical levels in pool as instructed in this manual. CLEANING FILTER Very Important: Make sure the cell is off while cleaning/backwashing the filter. If the system controls the filtration pump, use the option filter cleaning of the programmed filtration mode. See section Filtration / Filter Cleaning of the General Installation Guide. VERY IMPORTANT Remember that the system needs some time to adapt to your pool and that you will have to increase chemical levels for the first days. EARTHING All metallic components in the pool such as lamps, ladders, heat exchangers, drains or similar elements within m from the pool (0 feet) must be connected to an earth with resistance of less than Ohms. If using heat exchangers, we recommend that they be made of titanium. SECURITY To avoid accidents, children should not handle this product unless supervised by an adult. Children should be supervised at all times when in or near a spa, pool or jacuzzi. HANDLING AND DOSING DANGEROUS CHEMICALS Chemicals should be handled with extreme caution. When preparing acid, always add acid to water, never add water to acid, because very dangerous gases may be produced.

Smart*: This mode uses the automatic or timer mode, with its filtration intervals, as a basis. It adjusts the filtration time in function of water temperature. For this reason temperature set points are provided: Between the maximum and minimum temperatures the filtration times will climb linearly and will be governed by the timer. Below the minimum temperature the filtration time will be reduced to minutes, which is the minimum working time. Use the plus/minus keys to set the desired minimum and maximum temperatures. There is an option to activate the antifreeze mode in which the filtration will start if the water temperature falls below C. To set the ON/OFF times (up to possible programmable time), follow the instructions of the Automatic Mode. See Filter Cleaning section below. * Note: Mode only visible if the option to use temperature probe and/or heating is activated in the Installer Menu.. FILTRATION / Heating mode.. Timed heating with option of chilling*: This mode operates in a similar way to the automatic mode, but it also includes an option to work on a relay to control the temperature. The desired temperature is set in this menu, and the system works with a hysteresis of degree (example: the setting temperature is C, the system will activate itself when the temperature drops below C and will not stop before it reaches C). Use the plus/minus keys to set the desired temperatures and ON/OFF for the Heating. Clima OFF: The heating only works within the set filtration periods. Clima ON: Keeps the filtration working when the filtration period is finished if the water temperature is below the temperature set point. When the temperature set point is reached the filtration and the heating will stop and will not switch on again until the next programmed filtration period. To set the ON/OFF times (up to possible programmable times), follow the instructions of the Automatic Mode. See Filter Cleaning section below. * Note: This mode is only visible if the option to use the temperature probe and/or heating is activated in the Installer Menu.. FILTRATION / Intelligent mode.. Intelligent*: In this mode the user has working parameters to guarantee the desired water temperature with minimum filtration hours: Select the desired water temperature and the minimum filtration time (minimum of hours and maximum of hours). The device divides the selected minimum filtration time into fragments which start up every hours. If one of these fragments finishes, without the temperature reaching the desired level, the filtration/heating continues until the desired temperature is reached. In order to keep the filtration-electricity-cost to a minimum, this additional filtration time is subtracted from the subsequent minimum filtration time fragments. The first 0 minutes of each fragment will not be subtracted. Example (see diagram): Minimum temperature = C and minimum filtration time = hours. The desired water temperature and the minimum filtration time is set with the plus/minus keys. See Filter Cleaning section below.
