QP ARES ICS16B salt chlorinator cell 16 g/h – Ref. 6682H
QP ARES ICS16B salt chlorinator cell 16 g/h – Ref. 6682H subject to supplier availability.
Preparation time 3 - 5 days
Description
Description
The QP electrolytic cell, reference 6682H, is the specific replacement part for the ARES ICS16B salt chlorinator. It generates chlorine from the salt dissolved in the water, allowing the system to maintain automatic pool disinfection.
When the original cell shows wear, reduced output, or electrode-related warnings, replacing it restores the equipment's performance without requiring replacement of the entire chlorinator.
Replacement type
Replacement electrolytic cell / electrode.
Compatible equipment
QP ARES ICS16B salt chlorinator.
Equipment output
16 g/h.
Reference
6682H.
Quick summary
Specific replacement part
Designed to replace the cell in the QP ARES ICS16B salt chlorinator.
Titanium electrodes
The ARES equipment uses an electrolysis cell consisting of 10 titanium plates.
Self-cleaning system
The ARES range features configurable self-cleaning in 2-, 4-, or 6-hour cycles.
InverClear Technology
Adaptive operation from 0 to 100% to optimize consumption and cell service life.
Compatibility
This cell must be used only with the specified equipment. It is not a universal replacement for every salt chlorinator.

When is it advisable to replace the cell?
The electrolytic cell is a wear component. With use, the plates gradually lose their generation capacity, and the equipment may need more time to produce the required chlorine.
- When chlorine production drops even though the salt level is correct.
- When warnings or errors related to the cell or electrode appear.
- When the electrodes show visible wear or persistent scale buildup.
- When the equipment needs to run for more hours to keep the water disinfected.
- When the cell has reached the end of its approximate service life.

What does this replacement part provide?
Replacing the worn cell restores the salt electrolysis system's chlorine production capacity. It is a more logical solution than replacing the entire chlorinator when the problem is concentrated in electrode wear.
- Restores the equipment's chlorine generation.
- Helps maintain stable water disinfection.
- Helps extend the service life of the salt chlorinator.
- Reduces incidents caused by a worn-out cell.
- Maintains automatic salt-treatment operation.
Frequently asked questions
Is this cell suitable for any QP salt chlorinator?
No. Reference 6682H is intended for the QP ARES ICS16B salt chlorinator. Before buying, it is advisable to check the exact model of the installed equipment.
Does the 6682H cell replace the original electrode in the ARES ICS16B?
Yes. It is the replacement part intended to replace the cell/electrode in the ARES ICS16B equipment when it shows wear or reduced performance.
How long does a salt electrolysis cell last?
The approximate service life indicated for the ARES range cell is 10,000 hours, although it may vary depending on usage hours, salinity, water quality, limescale, and maintenance performed.
Does a new cell always solve a lack of chlorine?
Not always. If the previous cell is worn out, replacing it helps restore production. However, salinity, pH, stabilizer, flow rate, water temperature, and possible limescale deposits should also be checked.
Does it require maintenance?
Yes. It is recommended to inspect the electrodes periodically and keep them free of limescale deposits, always following the equipment manufacturer's instructions.
