Just installed Aqua Rite SWG...I have a question?

[CarlD]

Have you called your dealer or the Aqua Rite tech support?

[Kevinkaye]

Both dealer and tech support are closed for the holiday. That is why I am doing my own research. Based on what I have found online, what I am experiencing is normal. I also think the forum members in the SWG forum might be able to help, but I can't post in that area.

Once your registration is completed, PoolDoc will move your thread into that area for other SWCG owners to see it. But, I have to tell you that forum traffic is really dropping off since it is late in the season so not sure how many people will actually see it.

At any rate, welcome to the Pool Forum!

If the output knob is not at 100% the unit does indeed cycle the cell on and off. The output isn't really adjustable like an incandescent light bulb on a dimmer. The adjustment is a function of on time vs off time for the cell. The click you hear is a relay that is electronically controlled. When it's in the "off" cycle, there is no current flowing through the cell's plates and so current (amps) = 0.
