Off if Flow Off - 1 or 3:
The pH Relay will be turned off if “No Flow” is detected in Flow Switch Input 1 for
Pool1 and if “No Flow” is detected in Flow Switch Input 3 for Pool2.
Note
: This setting can’t be changed as
it relates to safety, pressing the
Right Arrow
to change has no effect.

SetOvrfeed 00:00:00
: This type of overfeed requires the measurement to approach the setpoint. If a feed
tube is broken and the chemicals are going on the floor this type of overfeed protection will detect that and
shut down the relay sooner than the daily overfeed. Calculate how much feed time is required for the
setpoint to be reached when the pH is a full point off. When the Setpoint Overfeed is reached the relay
status will display an “s”. The default value is 00:00:00 which is disabled, in order to use this feature
calculate the amount of time required and enter that time.
❑
When in Setpoint Overfeed, there are only 2 ways to reset it: 1) cycle power on the PoolWarden and 2)
Manually fix the chemical imbalance so that the setpoint is approached within 5%.
❑
When feeding acid the pH measurement will lower as acid is being added. When the pH is within 5% of
the setpoint the Setpoint Overfeed timer will clear.
⧫
Overfeed 06:00:00:
All chemical feed relays include this overfeed feature. The Overfeed time represents
the maximum amount of time a chemical relay will feed in a day from midnight to midnight. This must be
set up properly to reduce the chance of feeding large amounts of chemicals in the event something goes
wrong. The default time will most likely not be correct. Please follow the calculation below.
❑
Calculate the total amount of chemical the pool would ever need in a 24 hour period. (Example: 10
Gallons would be the MOST chemical a pool would need on any given day).
❑
Calculate the amount of time it would take the feed-pump to inject that total amount of chemical in a 24
hours.
Example
: Limit to 1 gallon with a 10 Gallon Per Day (GPD) Fixed Rate Peristaltic Pump. 1
Gallons / 10 Gallons * 24 Hours = 2.4 hours or 02:24:00. You will need to adjust for variable pumps
