Aqua Rite Turbo Cell

The Turbo Cell is used with the Aqua Rite® electronic chlorinator, Aqua Trol® above-ground pool automation control, or the the Aqua Logic® in-ground pool/spa automation control to generate fresh, pure chlorine to meet the pools sanitization needs.

The Turbo Cell can be installed vertically or horizontally in the pipe return pipe to the pool.  Whenever the filter pump is operating,  the Turbo Cell will be converting a low concentration of salt in  the pool water into chlorine which is then evenly dispersed throughout the pool via the return jets. It couldn't be easier, more effective or trouble free.
  • Union connections (2") for easy installation.  Use standard plumbing adaptors for 1½ " pipe; 50 mm unions also available. Model T-CELL-15 has fittings for both hose and return jet connections.

     
  • Cord with plug at the control end ensures that all electrical connections are protected from getting wet.

     
  • Standard cable length is 15 ft. (4.5m); cells with 25 ft. (7.6m) cables are also available.

     
  • Large diameter minimizes flow restrictions.  Can be used on high flow systems required for in-floor cleaning or water features without the need for a bypass.  See chart for flow vs pressure drop curve (as tested by NSF).

     
  • The Turbo Cell's offset design creates a turbulent flow pattern that maximizes the self cleaning performance.

     
  • Available in 2 models: 
    • T-CELL-15 for Aqua Rite® and Aqua Logic® generates up 1.45 lb. (.66 Kg) of chlorine

       
    •   T-CELL-5 for Aqua Trol® generates up to .87 lb. (.40 Kg) of chlorine.
       

 

Cell cleaning frequency is dependent on several factors. pH and calcium levels in the water are the two that have the greatest effect on how often the cell requires cleaning.

Maintaining pH at the levels recommended in the Operating Instructions (7.2 - 7.8) should result in cell cleaning 3-4 times a year in areas with hard water. Cells can be cleaning less frequently in soft water areas.

The cell will require maintenance when the "Inspect Cell" light is either flashing or is on solid and the salt level is confirmed to be above 2500 part per million.

Procedure for cleaning Turbo Cell

  1. Turn Filter pump off.
  2. Remove the AquaRite Turbo Cell from its position in the plumbing by loosening the unions on both ends of the cell.
  3. You will need a small plastic bucket (6 - 8" opening), water and muriatic acid. (Picture A)
  4. Fill the bucket with 3 - 4" of water. (Picture B)
  5. Set the Turbo Cell, on end, in the bucket of water. (Picture C)
  6. Add 1 - 1 1/2" of muriatic to the water in the bucket. Let the cell sit in this solution for 5-10 minutes. (Picture D)
  7. Turn the cell over and let the other end sit in the solution for 5 - 10 minutes. You will be submersing the cord, which will not be affected by the mild acid solution. (Picture E)

    Look in both ends of the cell to confirm calcium deposits are removed. If not, repeat cleaning procedure.
  8. Rinse cell with fresh water and replace in plumbing line. Hand tighten unions before restoring power to filter pump.

IMPORTANT: DISPOSE OF WATER AND ACID MIXTURE IN A SAFE MANNER BY POURING THE CONTENTS OF THE BUCKET IN YOUR POOL.
