It’s one reason why salt chlorinators are now the accepted standard for pool sanitising. However, it’s not the only reason. With AstralPool’s VX Salt Chlorinator you also get a benchmark on control, convenience and reliability. To be accurate, salt or minerals don’t sanitise the pool, chlorine does. Salt or minerals in the form of Magnesium Chloride, Potassium Chloride or Sodium Chloride when dissolved into your pool water is converted by the VX Salt Chlorinator into chlorine which sanitises your pool. The salts or minerals, in roughly the same solution as a tear drop, passes through the electrolytic plates in the VX chlorinator cell to form chlorine which kills all the contaminants within the pool and prevents bacteria and algae from forming. What a nice solution – particularly when some of these minerals and salts can be so good for the health of your family just by being in your pool water. The result is pure, crystal clear, soft feeling water and happy, healthy swimmers.

Control…Manual dosing with liquid or granular chlorine can be haphazard. Over-dosing can cause eye irritation, itchy skin and a strong chlorine odour. The VX Salt Chlorinator continually generates chlorine at the level you require.

Convenience…The easy to use touch pad enables complete control of your pump and sanitiser system. Although the VX is easy to use, it’s packed full of features making your swimming pool a pleasure to own and use. Chlorine output, Pool or Spa selection, filter cleaning, time of operation, and additional run times are all selected and information is provided on the large liquid crystal display.

Intelligent Self Cleaning…During operation, the anode in the electrolytic cell attracts a build up of calcium and other debris which requires periodic cleaning. Most chlorinators reverse the polarity to the cell, which in turn releases the residue of calcium and debris on the anode. The intelligent VX chlorinator analyses the output setting to optimise the polarity of the electrolytic cell. By minimising the number of reversals ensures the cell is clean and significantly extends the life of your chlorinator.

Pool or Spa Selection…When isolating your spa from the swimming pool, demand for sanitiser is greatly reduced. It’s simple really, while spa water is warm and requires sanitiser to kill and prevent the growth of bacteria and algae, it’s comparatively small volume means it only needs a fraction of the sanitiser that your pool requires. One touch of the “Spa” button on the VX chlorinator and your sanitiser output is automatically reduced to suit the demands of your spa. Why is this important? Excessive sanitiser is unpleasant, causing itching skin, bleached swimwear and damaging heaters, pumps and interior finishes in your spa or pool. Just another way the VX looks after your family.

Filter Backwash Timing…Sand Filters require regular backwashing to release the entrapped dirt and debris. The VX Chlorinator has a very smart button that operates the pump for one, two or three minutes, ensuring your filter is backwashed for the correct period and turns off the electrolytic cell, preventing excessive build up of sanitiser and by-products during the backwash process. This feature also ensures that the pump cannot accidently be left running and empty the pool, requiring expensive top-up water.
