2.11 PREPARING THE pH NEUTRAL SYSTEM
Before use, remove the pH probe from the top of the production tank and remove the
cover from the end of the pH probe. Re-install the probe.
Plumb the suction port of the peristaltic pump with the #2 hose to a container (not
supplied with the NEXGEN) specified for muriatic acid solutions.
Note:
Sulfuric acid and dry acid (sodium bisulfate) are not recommended for pH
adjustment. Under some conditions the electrolytic cell can be damaged.
WARNING
Read all cautions and directions provided with the muriatic acid used. Always add acid
to water. Use only with adequate ventilation. If strong odor is noticed, STOP, ventilation
is inadequate. Leave area immediately. If the work area is not well ventilated, you MUST
use a properly fitted and maintained NIOSH approved respirator for acid fumes.
For best results fill the acid tank with a 1 to 1 water / muriatic acid solution.
2.12 PLUMBING THE HYDROGEN VENT
WARNING
EXOLOSION RISK. FAILURE TO PLUMB THE HYDROGEN VENT TO OUTSIDE
ATMOSPHERE MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT OR PERSONS.
ALWAYS VENT THE SYSTEM AWAY FROM SPARK OR FLAME
Hydrogen vent pipes must be rigid plastic (PVC) and installed in a continuous upward
gradient of at least 1/8 inch per foot. The pipe must be vented to outside atmosphere.
Use a minimum of 2 inch pipe for the vent. The vent pipe should not be longer than 100
feet. (Consult ChlorKing if longer runs are required). Keep the opening clear and
protected from water or debris with the use of a hood or bend.
