Pentair iChlor 15: The Smart Salt System for Softer Pool Water
The Pentair iChlor 15 Salt Chlorine Generator (523080) converts ordinary salt into pure chlorine, without the need for chemical handling. This smart salt cell produces a constant flow of chlorine for softer, silkier pool water: simply add salt, and the iChlor takes care of the rest. A simple, safe, and effective way to keep your pool clean and enjoyable all summer long.
Designed for residential pools up to 15,000 US gallons (≈ 56,800 L), the 523080 package includes the iChlor 15 cell and its 110V power supply: everything you need to switch to salt treatment.
Why choose the Pentair iChlor 15 Salt Generator?
-
Just add salt: no more buying, transporting, or storing chlorine tablets or liquid.
-
Softer water for skin and eyes: reduces odors, stinging eyes, and irritated skin associated with traditional chlorine.
-
Precise adjustment from 1% to 100%: adjust chlorine production time in 1% increments to achieve exactly the desired level.
-
Real-time data display: quick and easy monitoring of operation.
-
Operates at low flow (as low as 20 GPM): ideal with variable speed pumps.
-
Electronics isolated within the cell, away from high-temperature components, for extended lifespan.
-
Fewer swimsuits faded by chlorine.
SmartSense™ Technology: Integrated Intelligence
The iChlor integrates SmartSense™ detection for consistent, waste-free operation:
- Detects the automatic pool cover and reduces chlorine production when closed.
- Detects pump activity and prevents chlorine generation when the pump is off.
Result: more appropriate chlorination for actual pool usage, which helps extend cell lifespan.
Ready for Pentair Automation
For maximum convenience, the iChlor 15 interfaces with Pentair automation systems (EasyTouch®, IntelliTouch®, and ScreenLogic®). Control your pool from anywhere, at any time, from your smartphone, computer, or mobile device.
Effortless Chlorination
Simply set the output to the desired level: the iChlor automatically produces a steady stream of chlorine. Once the water is treated, the chlorine converts back to dissolved salt, and the cycle repeats—a clean and sustainable process.
