This approach ensures proper water sampling around the sensors, facilitating a hassle-free installation that minimizes the integration work required to get your water treatment system operational.
CHEMTROL® PC1500 – Programmable Controller Overview
The CHEMTROL® Programmable Controller range offers advanced, user-friendly control and monitoring of all essential water quality parameters.
Below is a clear breakdown of the PC1500’s key features:
Main Display Screen
Provides quick access to all menus and settings. Operators can navigate using arrow keys and enter values with the keypad — no complex training required.
pH Menu
Manages pH using either acid, CO2 or base dosing. Includes calibration, control settings, alarm limits, and an Acid Wash program to help maintain sensor accuracy over time.
ORP Menu (Oxidation-Reduction Potential)
Controls ORP levels to ensure effective disinfection. Includes control settings, calibration, alarms, and additional options like Shocking and Chemical Saver Mode for improved chemical efficiency.
Saturation Index & Water Balance Monitoring
The controller continuously calculates and displays the Langelier Saturation Index (LSI) using real-time readings of pH, temperature, alkalinity, and calcium hardness. This helps you maintain proper water balance and provides early alerts to conditions that may cause scaling or corrosion, allowing you to make timely adjustments and protect your equipment.
Setup Menu
Enables full system configuration, including initialization and communication settings. Ideal for adapting the controller to suit various facility requirements.
A Complete Water Management Solution
The CHEMTROL® Programmable Controller is a reliable and flexible solution for commercial pool and facility operators, delivering precise, automated water quality management with built-in safety, scheduling, and diagnostic features.
