Circupool SWG

Circupool is a popular SWG brand due to their competitive pricing and warranty allowing DIY installation.

Note all gallons and chlorine output below assume the cell is running at 100% 24/7.

SJ Series

  • The SJ is a basic model with only 25% increments for % generation.[1] That may not provide fine enough % control if you get an oversize cell. You will need to use runtime to make finer adjustments to cell chlorine output.

SJ Models

  • SJ15 - 15,000 gallons - 0.65 lbs/day Chlorine
  • SJ20 - 20,000 gallons - 0.87 lbs/day Chlorine
  • SJ40 - 40,000 gallons - 1.60 lbs/day Chlorine
  • SJ55 - 55,000 gallons - 2.30 lbs/day Chlorine

RJ Series

  • The RJ has more precise % increments than the SJ series.[2]

RJ Models

  • RJ16+ - 15,000 gallons - 0.70 lbs/day Chlorine
  • RJ20+ - 20,000 gallons - 0.90 lbs/day Chlorine
  • RJ30+ - 30,000 gallons - 1.50 lbs/day Chlorine
  • RJ45+ - 40,000 gallons - 2.00 lbs/day Chlorine
  • RJ60+ - 60,000 gallons - 3.10 lbs/day Chlorine

CORE Series

  • The CORE is an all-in-one unit that integrates the controller and flow switch into one component for easier installation. Like the SJ series, it provides 25% increments for % generation. Finer adjustment of output needs to be done by adjusting pump run time.

Core Models

  • CORE-15 - 15,000 gallons - 0.90 lbs/day Chlorine
  • CORE-35 - 35,000 gallons - 1.40 lbs/day Chlorine
  • CORE-55 - 55,000 gallons - 2.30 lbs/day Chlorine

Core Features

  • You cannot rotate the control head as the cell can only plug in one direction to the controller.[3] *The cell also has to be inserted the same other way as it is keyed to it's housing.
  • The flow direction however is bi-directional as the flow switch activates either way.
  • It will automatically recognize 100 to 240vac up to 4 amps.
  • The Core-55 has eight flow channels where the water flows thru over the many plates.
  • The flow sensor is built in, so there is no separate sensor to install.
  • The cell is transparent so to see the water flow and hydrogen gas being generated to be sure that the unit is working.
  • It does not have a lot of the display features and diagnostics that other units have.

Circupool SWG Maintenance Tips

Keep Control Panel Out Of the Weather

Circupool customer support recommends having a roof or shelter over the control. Even though it's designed to be outside and is "waterproof". They say if you want longevity with control keep it out of the elements, direct sun and rain. [4]

Air builds up in SWG

  • Check cell is level
  • Check filter pressure and flow. Backwash filter.
