Cole Palmer Pump Settings

victorcan · 04/03/2017, 08:58 AM

So I have a Cole Palmer 7524-00 Pump hooked up to my Ca Rx and am running 70ml p/min to feed my Heavily populated spa tank.. I am having to dose alk and mg daily to keep up with it and and i can't seem to fine tune my CP Masterflex pump in smaller ml steeps than 10.. I was at 50ml then went to 60 ml now at 70 but if I goto 80 its too much I think if I coulg go 75 it would be perfect, however My unit only allows me to adjust flow in 10ml increments ? I know they can function in 1ml increments as Ive seen it on youtube but for whatever reason mine is set on 10ml? It there a button combination or something to change the programming on this thing? I can't figure it out and I really need to fine tune my effluent. Can someone weigh in on this? I have tried to get the manual online but can't seem to get it for my exact model.

You would probably get a quicker answer if you post in the Masterflex thread below. That said, if you are still having to dose Ca and Alk, you may need to decrease the pH in your reactor. That would be where I would start.
