Do you know what the alarm means?

My probe is new. I did the change and recalibration procedure. Everything works perfectly. It is the device that goes into alarm. I don't know what Alarm means

Take the test you never know

Normally in tap water you should have seen a value between 6.5 and 7.5

When the probe is in a glass of water, does the pump run?

avatar
Jul 14, 2022, 10:16 am

I ran the pump by plugging the probe socket

avatar
Olivier Michaud Jul 14, 2022, 10:17 am

Do this, put the probe in a glass of water and add lye. The ph should rise and the pump should start

avatar
Jul 14, 2022, 10:19 am

the pump is triggered as soon as the pH reaches 7.6. But after an hour, the device goes into Alarm and I have to press the V button to restart.

avatar
Olivier Michaud Jul 14, 2022, 10:19 am

Do you work with pH minus?

avatar
Jul 14, 2022, 10:19 am

yes PH Less

avatar
Olivier Michaud Jul 14, 2022, 10:20 am

And after an hour the ph is at what value?

avatar
Olivier Michaud Jul 14, 2022, 10:21 am

The alarm that goes off prevents the device from emptying your ph minus tank, this is normal

avatar
Jul 14, 2022, 10:22 am

the pump runs for a few minutes and stops. At the end of the day, I found the device in alarm and the Ph rose by 0.1.

avatar
Olivier Michaud Jul 14, 2022, 10:24 am

Do this: put the probe in a glass of water with washing powder.

avatar
Olivier Michaud Jul 14, 2022, 10:26 am

Take out the pH minus hose!

avatar
Jul 14, 2022, 10:27 am

the distribution of ph minus has been triggered. I take out the pipe? This will send air?

avatar
Olivier Michaud Jul 14, 2022, 10:28 am

It doesn't matter, it's just to avoid emptying your canister of ph

avatar
Jul 14, 2022, 10:29 am

and now what should i do

avatar
Olivier Michaud Jul 14, 2022, 10:30 am

The probe is in a glass of water and with detergent?

avatar
Jul 14, 2022, 10:31 am

Yes

avatar
Olivier Michaud Jul 14, 2022, 10:31 am

Should the pump be running?

avatar
Jul 14, 2022, 10:31 am

Yes

avatar
Olivier Michaud Jul 14, 2022, 10:32 am

Let it run for 10 minutes (to see if the alarm goes off)

avatar
Oivier Michaud Jul 14, 2022, 10:32 am

And then add vinegar to the glass the ph should go down and the pump will stop

avatar
Jul 14, 2022, 10:33 am

I do it and I will contact you

avatar
Olivier Michaud Jul 14, 2022, 10:33 am

Yes

avatar
Jul 14, 2022, 11:09 am

The device did not go into alarm after 10 minutes. It is rather after about 1 hour of restarting. I have lost the user manual where there are no doubt the explanations. I try to get it. Thanks for your help. Cordially

avatar
Olivier Michaud Jul 14, 2022, 11:10 am

Has the pump run for 10 minutes?

avatar
Jul 14, 2022, 11:10 am

No, the pump stopped after a few minutes, I did not time

avatar
Olivier Michaud Jul 14, 2022, 11:11 am

And what pH value could you read?

avatar
Jul 14, 2022, 11:11 am

7.9

avatar
Olivier Michaud Jul 14, 2022, 11:13 am

While the pump is running add vinegar and see if this stops the pump (pH <7.6

avatar
Jul 14, 2022, 11:13 am

I did it earlier, it was OK

avatar
Olivier Michaud Jul 14, 2022, 11:14 am

Does the pump stop?

avatar
Jul 14, 2022, 11:15 am

yes, the pump stops. During the day when I go to see, I find the device in alarm. I will try to stay watching when this happens. Thank you for your help. Good day

avatar
Olivier Michaud Jul 14, 2022, 11:16 am

Probably because the injection of pH is not enough to lower the pH sufficiently. Have a good day

avatar
Jul 14, 2022, 11:16 am

I will come back to you when I have timed everything. THANKS
