How does saline conversion chlorination work?

• A specific quantity of pure, non-iodized, fine grain table salt is added to the pool water to create a saltwater (saline) concentration of 0.3% (3000 parts per million). This salinity concentration is slightly less than the salinity level found in most human tears, thus it is very gentle to the swimmer’s eyes and skin. • Liquid chlorine (hypochlorite) is created through a process called electrolysis. As the water pump passes the saline through the chlorinator cell a low voltage DC current is applied to the saline. This applied energy current changes the salt dissolved in the water into liquid chlorine (hypochlorite). The liquid chlorine immediately mixes with the water leaving the chlorinator cell and flows into the swimming pool as clean, chlorinated water. • The continuous introduction of liquid chlorine will ensure the continuous sanitizing of the pool’s water and will not allow the growth of algae. When the liquid chlorine has destroyed the bacteria in the pool, it reverts to sal
