Your HOCl generator is a cleaning powerhouse—but like any precision system, it needs regular maintenance to stay at peak performance.
Good news: EcoloxTech systems are low-maintenance by design.
Follow these simple steps and your unit will keep generating high-purity HOCl for years.
Daily / Weekly Quick Check (All Models)
✅ Check additive tank level
✅ Inspect tubing for kinks or buildup
✅ Clean exterior with damp cloth
✅ Monitor concentration levels (FAC test)
✅ Reset error codes if triggered
When to Deep Clean the Electrolysis Cell
Over time, minerals from water and salt can scale up the electrolysis cell, reducing efficiency and lowering ppm output.
Here’s how you know it’s time:
-
FAC output drops noticeably
-
System amperage falls 10% below your set level
-
Error messages appear (Err2/Err3)
How to Perform Maintenance
For E-1200 System [E1200_Operation_Manual]
Step-by-step:
-
Mix 1,800 mL water + 200 mL HCl (35–37%)
-
Swap additive tank with this solution
-
Set flow rate above 16 L/min
-
Run system for 45–60 minutes
-
FAC should return to normal. If not, repeat once.
✅ Use only FCC-grade HCl for food contact environments
✅ Wear gloves and goggles during handling
Recommended: Once every 2–3 months depending on usage
For E-300 System [E300_User_manual]
-
Same steps as above but adjust flow to 3–4 L/min
-
Use maintenance formula #3 with HCl as described in manual
-
System will self-clean during runtime
For Eco One [eco-one-manual]
-
No brine tank = no cell scaling
-
Simply rinse the pitcher and lid after each use
-
Run 1 full cycle with just water every 2–3 weeks to flush internal components
-
Keep dry when not in use
Additive Tank Tips
-
Always use food-grade salt (NaCl)
-
No iodine or anti-caking agents
-
For better HOCl conversion: use vinegar or HCl formulas
-
Keep undissolved salt at the tank bottom for consistent brine saturation

System Error Codes to Watch For
| Code | Meaning | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Err1 | Low flow | Check inflow water pressure + tubing |
| Err2 | Low current | Replace additive or perform cell cleaning |
| Err3 | High current | Check brine concentration and cell status |
| Err4 | Low voltage | Call support if persistent |
| Err5 | Fan issue | Ensure ventilation + contact service |
