 OVERVIEW

SUMMARY:

   The Smart pH is a microprocessor based, modular automation system capable of 

    continuous local monitoring and control of the pH water chemistry for pool and spa

    applications. The Smart pH will maintain the pH levels (

either

 increasing pH using base  

  or decreasing pH using acid) of your water system automatically. The Smart pH will  

only

increase or decrease the pH

. The Smart pH is recommended for use with a 

    chlorine generator or an erosion type feeder. You can also use the Smart pH when hand  

  feeding liquid chlorine (base) or muratic acid as the chlorine will increase the pH and

    the acid will decrease the pH. The Smart pH can also control CO

2

 gas systems with the  

  same efficiency as an acid feed controller. (For specific information on installation refer  

  to documentation supplied with CO

2

 chemical feeder).

RELAY:

        The Smart pH has one relay module to control the pH levels. 

SENSORS

:     The Smart pH can measure inputs from one pH sensor.

VOLTAGE:

     The Smart pH can only work on an input voltage of 110 VAC.
