CCEI Empty X-CELL Cell: Protect Your Limpido Salt Chlorinator During Winterization
The CCEI empty X-CELL cell is a winterization accessory designed to temporarily replace the active cell of your Limpido salt chlorinator. By removing the original cell and installing this empty cell in its place, you protect your titanium electrodes against scaling, freezing, and corrosion, while maintaining a closed and watertight hydraulic circuit throughout the winterization period.
Why Remove the Active Cell During Winter?
During the winterization period, the chlorinator is shut down, but water continues to circulate in the circuit if your filtration is running in reduced mode or if you have a frost-free box. However, an electrolysis cell left in place without operating is exposed to several risks: accumulation of scale on the titanium plates, stagnant water likely to cause corrosion, and risk of damage in case of frost. By removing the active cell to store it dry and replacing it with the empty X-CELL cell, you eliminate these risks and considerably extend the lifespan of your electrodes.
Ideal for Installations Without a Bypass
If your installation has a bypass, you can simply isolate the cell from the circuit in winter. However, if your cell is mounted directly in line on the pipe without a bypass, you cannot remove it without interrupting the hydraulic circuit. This is precisely the role of the empty X-CELL cell: it takes the place of the active cell and ensures the continuity of water circulation in your plant room, even without a bypass.
A Transparent Cell to Monitor Your Water in Winter
The empty X-CELL cell is made of transparent plastic, allowing you to visually check the quality and color of the water circulating in your installation during winterization. A quick glance is enough to detect a potential problem (cloudy water, abnormal coloration) and react before the situation worsens.
Quick Installation Without Specific Tools
The empty X-CELL cell is 313 mm long, the same length as the Limpido active cell. It comes with 2 Ø50 mm union fittings and their gaskets, allowing for direct replacement in minutes. Unscrew the union fittings of the active cell, remove it, install the empty cell with its fittings, and tighten. It's done. In spring, perform the reverse operation to put your active cell back into service.
How to Store the Removed Active Cell?
Once the active cell has been removed, it is recommended to clean it before storage using the CCEI cleaning cap (ref. PF10I190). Fill the cell with a descaling solution (10% hydrochloric acid or white vinegar), let it act, then rinse thoroughly. Dry the cell and store it in a dry place, away from frost and UV rays. In spring, it will be ready to resume service immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions about the CCEI X-CELL Empty Cell
The X-CELL empty cell is designed for CCEI Limpido salt electrolyzers. It is compatible with all Limpido models equipped with 50 mm connection cells.
An active cell left in place without operating risks scaling, corrosion, and damage in case of frost. Removing it and storing it dry during winterization significantly extends its lifespan and preserves the efficiency of its electrodes.
If your installation has a bypass, you can isolate the cell from the circuit without needing the empty cell. However, without a bypass, the empty cell is essential to remove the active cell while maintaining the continuity of the hydraulic circuit.
The transparency of the X-CELL empty cell allows for visual control of the water quality circulating in your installation during winterization. A quick glance is enough to detect cloudy water or abnormal coloration.
The X-CELL empty cell comes with 2 Ø50 mm union fittings and their seals. You have everything you need to install it directly in place of your active cell.
Unscrew the union fittings of the active cell on your piping, remove the cell, then install the X-CELL empty cell with its own union fittings and tighten. The operation takes a few minutes and requires no specific tools.
Before storing your active cell, clean it with the CCEI cleaning plug (ref. PF10I190) and a descaling solution (10% hydrochloric acid or white vinegar). Rinse thoroughly, dry, and store in a dry place, away from frost and UV.
Yes. The X-CELL empty cell is 313 mm long, exactly the same length as the Limpido active cell. It mounts directly in the same place without any modification to your circuit.
The X-CELL empty cell is designed by CCEI for its Limpido electrolyzers. It may be suitable for some Hayward installations whose cells use a 50 mm fitting, but compatibility is not guaranteed by the manufacturer. Check the dimensions of your cell before ordering.
Yes, the empty cell can serve as a temporary solution while awaiting the replacement of your faulty active cell. It keeps the hydraulic circuit closed and allows you to continue filtering your pool normally, but without chlorine production by electrolysis.
