how do i calculate how many ppm per hour my zodiac Ei18 will produce in a 70 000 liter pool at 100%?

I wish I could remember where/who I got this from to give proper credit:
Dropbox - SWGCalculator.xlsx

PoolMath will calculate that for you too (in the Effects of Additioning Chemicals). Put in .92 pounds and your pool volumn.
I get 6ppm per day running at 100%
I get 6ppm per day running at 100%
The 18 means 18 grams per hour or 432 grams per day. 432 grams in 70,000 liters is 6.2 ppm per day or 0.258 ppm per hour.
432 ÷ 70 = 6.17.
432 ÷ 70 = 6.17.
thanks everyone! I read somewhere (maybe pool school) that there are advantages to running chlorination during the day when the sun (if any) is on the pool but cant find justification as to why?

Not sure if there are advantages but it is what I do! But I do not have tiered electric rates. If it cost me less to run the pump at night, I would most likely generate my chlorine at night.
The important thing is to keep your FC at target level based on your CYA at all times. So always test your FC right before your SWCG starts generating each day. That should be the lowest your FC is during the day.
Take care.
