Ensuring first-class and perfectly hygienic water quality around the clock, 365 days a year in a complex calculated to accommodate up to 2500 bathers at any one time is a real challenge for the operators.

What’s more, the entire system for treating and disinfecting the water in all the pools needs to be monitored and controlled centrally. The smooth exchange of data between all components that this requires calls for reliable and modern measuring and control technology to display the current operating statuses, to control the pumps perfectly and to precisely meter disinfectants.

Tried and tested in continuous use

Products from Heidelberg-based ProMinent GmbH have been in use at the Sinsheim spa and pool complex for over a decade. The professional complete solution comprises DULCOMARIN 3 controllers and measuring and control plates for capturing parameters of relevance to health 24/7. The online sensors for free chlorine, pH, ORP and conductivity have an important role to play in perfectly setting the salt content in the saline pool.

Numerous metering pumps in various variants and several peristaltic pumps ensure precise metering of disinfectant.

The experts from Heidelberg are continuously driving forward the development of new technology. And this is why the existing UV systems were recently replaced with newer and even more high-performing versions of the DULCODES MP type. Combined with the UV systems to eliminate micropollutants, three membrane electrolysis systems CHLORINSITU III are responsible for disinfecting the water. Because the disinfectant is generated in situ from water, salt and electricity, there is no need to handle highly toxic chlorine gas.

An ultra-modern communication system for networking the systems used in the pool technology serves to permanently transfer data between the metering pumps, measuring and control systems as well as the sensors. All relevant measured values are thereby continuously checked and recorded centrally in the DULCOMARIN 3 control system to ensure the precise metering of disinfectant and therefore perfect water treatment.

Modern water treatment for a trouble-free pool experience

  • Reliable components ensure perfectly hygienic water quality at all times even during peak loads
  • Improved safety and low-cost generation of disinfectant on site with the membrane electrolysis system CHLORINSITU III
  • Central monitoring and control of all water circuits with measuring and control system DULCOMARIN 3
  • Rapid transfer of data thanks to the networking of all controllers, sensors and pumps via an ultra-modern communication system
  • Replacing the existing system with enhanced UV systems DULCODES MP means that operating costs are reduced once again and less maintenance is needed

Key data

  • Treatment of 4000 cubic metres of water with a peak load of up to 2500 bathers at any one time
  • Water disinfection with two UV systems DULCODES MP and three membrane electrolysis systems CHLORINSITU III
  • Central measuring and control system DULCOMARIN 3 for all pool circuits
  • A total of 19 pool circuits and four central devices DULCOMARIN 3
