Elite Connect 60–160 LOW SALT (1–2 g of salt/liter)
Description
The Astral Elite Connect is an electrolysis/hydrolysis system developed by Idegis. The LS (LOW SALT) versions allow disinfection with a low salt content (1–2 g/l).
ADVANTAGES:
- Color touchscreen
- Equipped as standard with salt and temperature measurement
- Expandable with plug-in modules for measuring pH, redox, and free chlorine (PPM)
- Integrated Poolstation functions (home automation system for operation via phone/tablet/computer)
- 4 digital inputs / 4 digital outputs (relays)
- Two communication ports (Ethernet and Modbus)
- Equipped with UV-C lamp control
Low-salt electrolysis/hydrolysis has gradually become a very popular disinfection method for swimming pools and swimming ponds/biopools. The great advantage is that hydrolysis produces powerful disinfectants from water by splitting it into O and H atoms. These O and H atoms can then form the following oxidants: O (atomic oxygen), O2 (oxygen), O3 (ozone), H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide), and OH (hydroxyl radical).
These oxidants are just as powerful as, or even more powerful than, chlorine (see table), but they do not produce negative by-products (such as chloramines). After reacting with an organic substance, they revert to water. At salinity levels of 1.5–2 g/l, a very small amount of free chlorine is also produced, which creates a deposit effect in ponds. For swimming ponds, a maximum salt content of 1 g/l is recommended when chlorine is not desired. (Not suitable for use with EPDM liner)
