AutoPilot has various model Salt Water Chlorine Generators including:

  • Pool Pilot® Digital
  • Pool Pilot® Digital Nano,
  • Pool Pilot® Digital Nano+ Soft Touch
  • Pool Pilot® Nano
  • Pool Pilot® Soft Touch

The AutoPilot system uses a patented Bypass Manifold to limit flow through the cell to less then 20 GPM.

The manifold also holds the Tri-Sensor that detects water flow, temperature and salinity levels.
