1. VALUE OF COPPER IONIZATION SYSTEMS
You have purchased a chemical-free water treatment system that eliminates the need for
chlorine. A system that is state of the art. We are committed to make servicing your pool
and swimming more pleasurable, less time consuming, and more economical to maintain.
As a bonus, you’ll find a chlorine-free pool healthier for you, your family, and friends.
Before installing the Ionizer, read these instructions from cover to cover. Write down any
questions you have. If, after reading the entire booklet, you still have questions; PLEASE
CALL US –TOLL FREE. You will be glad you did.
The following is a partial list of the health benefits copper mentioned in the article in the
February 1989 issue of Better Nutrition Magazine written by contributing Editor Frank
Murry.
1. Copper strengthens blood vessel walls.
2. Copper is important to energize metabolism.
3. Copper shares anti-inflammatory powers with zinc, which is important in healing.
4. Taste perception may be influenced by copper.
5. Copper is important to the functionality of the immune system
6. Copper is a potent anti-ulcer agent.
7. Copper also may play an important role in cancer prevention.
8. Copper is one of the more important antioxidants in the blood stream.
9. Copper is the key mineral of collagen and elastin which are essential for tendons
and blood vessels.
10. Copper helps prevent anemia, bone and skeletal defects, a degeneration of the
nervous system, defects in the color and structure of hair, reproductive problems
and abnormal cardiovascular problems.
11. Those who are deficient in copper and iron are more likely to have problems with
sleeping.
12. Nerves will fray without copper.
13. Without copper, skin becomes fragile, will break easily, and heal slowly.
14. Without copper, bones can fracture
15. Without copper, blood vessels can leak or burst.
16. Copper deficiency can elevate blood pressure.
17. A copper-deficient diet may cause defective transport of vitamin A from liver to
blood.

Copper, while extremely important in one’s diet, should not be confused with swimming
pools or consuming bathing water. Copper ionized pools do have its own benefits whicg
are outlined below:
1. Copper Ionization is the only way to have healthy water in your pool.
2. You will save 80-85% on your water care expenditures and 80-85% on your
water care time. There is no need for purchasing chlorine, shock treatments,
algaecides, or stabilizer!
3. Pool liners, paint, vinyl, and plaster last three to five times longer, saving
thousands of dollars.
4. Copper ions are non-irritating to skin and will not burn your eyes.
5. Copper ions are many times more effective, faster acting, and longer lasting
than chlorine in inactivating algae and bacteria.

2. CA10 AND CV50 INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
The copper electrode is the only part of the system that must be installed. It is installed
after the pool filter and before the pool heater (if you have a heater).
Figure 1

Figure 3. CV60 Electrode
Installation of the Electrode
1.5” Plumbing
You will need to use a 2” to 1.5” reducer bushing (not provided). The electrode
can be installed horizontally or vertically. Take the male half of each male union, clean
them both, and then cement the bushing/reducer into the male union (Figure 4).
7
Use a hacksaw and cut approximately 10 inches out of the pipe after the filter
Please note –this measurement can be different as bushings vary in depth. Take the male
half of each union that contains the reducer/bushing, clean the inside and cement
assembly component on the remaining pipe ends (Figure 5). Slide in the electrode and
hand tighten the female union to the male union.

Figure 5
2” Plumbing
Use a hacksaw and cut approximately 9.5 inches out of the pipe after the filter
The electrode can be installed horizontally or vertically. Take the male half of each union
and clean and cement them on the remaining pipe ends. Slide in the electrode and hand
tighten the female union to the male union.
Connecting the Electronics Unit to the Electrode
Locate the male spades found at each side of the electrode (Figure 6). Connect the
female plug located at the end of the wire from the electronics unit and connect it to the
male spade located on the electrode (Figure 7). Attach the unconnected wire for the
electronics unit to the other side of the electrode (Figure 8). It does not matter which wire
plugs into which side of the electrode. The polarity will alternate the current between the
two copper bars on the electrode. Figure 9 illustrates the proper connection for the
electronics unit to the electrode.

Your new pool ionization system has gone through two separate inspections: (a) by
manufacturing, and then, (b) by the shipping department. If you notice any defects on your
system, please contact our Quality Assurance Department immediately.
Your unit utilizes an international power supply 110-230 volts, has a Type B plug,
and can be plugged into any standard US electrical socket. Many modern pool system
controllers have auxiliary plugs/ports that can be programmed to the ionizer turn on and
off. Copper ions remain active for a long period of time, and you should not have to run
the system continuously. These control units may also be plugged into a timer (available
at hardware stores) for maintaining a copper residual. The use of an extension cord will not
affect this system.

If the unit will be connected to an automated controller, please refer to the
instruction manual of that unit. Your ionizer can be connected to an auxiliary port. Many
of the modern control panels connect via blue tooth with a smart phone offering remote
access and the ability to manipulate run-time programs.

The electronic controllers must be mounted upright on a wall and preferably at a
location underneath the eve of the roof. At no time, should the controller be left laying
on a surface facing upwards. By doing so, the controller could be inundated with
water and void warranties.
*The total dissolved solids (TDS related to salinity) level in the pool will affect the
rate and dosing of the cupric copper production. The same can affect the internal
heating at full load and result in an automated shutdown. The output current should
be reduced when this occurs.
NOTE –Only run the

Power Indicator Light. It will remain a solid red color when power is running
to the unit.
Polarity Light –Cycles on and off every 10 minutes, indicating a reversal of
polarity and cleaning cycle.
Potentiometer Switch –Rotate clockwise to increase copper output and
counter clockwise to decrease copper output.
Power Switch –Will allow the user to turn off the system when it is not in
use.
Electrode Leads –Attaches to the copper electrode (not shown in picture)
