Product Description
The Pentair IntelliChlor Plus30 Salt Chlorine Generator Cell (EC-523730) is a high-performance replacement cell designed for residential pools up to 30,000 gallons. It is the upgraded, direct drop-in replacement for the discontinued iChlor 30 (model 523009), requiring no additional plumbing or electrical modifications
Key Features
- Efficient Chlorine Production: Generates approximately 1.10 lbs of pure chlorine every 24 hours, eliminating the need to manually handle, store, or carry traditional chlorine.
- Modular Design: Features a new modular structure that allows for individual replacement of electronics and sensors, reducing maintenance time by over 50%.
- SmartSense™ Technology: Automatically detects pump activity and pool cover status to accurately adjust chlorine output, preventing over-chlorination and extending cell life.
- Advanced Diagnostics: Includes an easy-to-read LCD/LED interface with over 20 built-in diagnostics and warnings for real-time monitoring of salt levels, water flow, and cell status.
- Improved Accuracy: Equipped with a redesigned conductivity sensor that provides salt level readings with 98% accuracy, comparable to laboratory-grade salinity meters.
- Self-Cleaning Function: Uses reverse polarity technology to automatically clean titanium blades, which minimizes calcium and scale buildup to maximize the cell's lifespan.
- Seamless Integration: Fully compatible with existing Pentair automation systems like IntelliCenter®, EasyTouch®, and IntelliTouch® for remote monitoring and control.

⚠️ Critical Safety Warnings
- The Spacer Rule: For newly plastered pools, use a spacer cell (P/N 520588) for the first 30 days to protect titanium blades from plaster dust.
- Vertical Install: Water flow must always be directed upwards through the cell to prevent hazardous gas pockets.
- The 3-Foot Rule: Install the cell at least 3 feet away from your heater outlet to protect sensors from extreme heat.
- Phosphate Check: High phosphate levels act as "chlorine food," making the cell appear to be failing when it is simply being outpaced by consumption.
