  • milwaukee ph controller problems

    I think I might be having problems with my controller. It has been working well fr me for over a year. But recently I had noticed the media in my reactor lookig melted. So I have kept an eye on tank alk and all seemed fine. Then my effluent tube clogged woth pure melted media. So I cleaned it out and when I was in the tank room I noticed a ton of bubbles enter the bubble counter all at once dropping the ph in the reactor down to 6.4 when I have it set at 6.8. So what gives any ideas? I changed out the media and dailed it back a bit to be safe.

      This sounds like a CO2 system problem not a controller problem. Could be leaking regulator or a faulty solenoid.

          I agree. It seems to be working so far. But I guess you never know if something is about to fail or not. I bout the delux regulator from marine depot. Is that a good one? I thought it was.
          Thanks.

            The Deluxe regulator from MD is supposed to be the same one as the old M3 regulator which is the one I have had for over 5 yrs. If it is then it’s a good regulator. Did the release of bubbles come as you unplugged the line or afterwards?
