Specifications

How the salt chlorination system works

In a compatible Hayward Aqua Rite system, the TurboCell uses electrolytic technology to convert dissolved salt into chlorine as pool water passes through the cell. The control box supplies the electrical charge, and the return jets distribute the treated water throughout the pool. As water recirculates, the salt-to-chlorine cycle repeats. Salt itself does not evaporate, helping reduce the need for frequent salt additions.

The Aqua Rite in-ground salt chlorination system is designed to provide clean, clear, soft-feeling pool water with consistent chlorine dispersion and low operating costs. System features include a user-friendly monitor and LED service alerts. The existing Aqua Rite system information describes installation on standard filtration systems without additional plumbing, no harmful byproducts, and NSF, CUL and UL approvals; these are system-level details, not specifications for a complete system supplied with this replacement cell.
