Hi

I have Kalkwasser set up in my ATO tank, and would like to have a shut off if my PH rises to 8.3. Would anyone be able to help me add that code into the program?

Thanks!

and if your PH stays at 8.3 the entire day, what will you do for ATO? An ATO should be fixed code. Either you have to balance your Kalk to be spot on in your ATO when you mix by trial and error, or you have to 2 part separately.

Can you clarify? Are you talking about turning off a kalk pump that feeds into the ATO reservoir, or are you talking about turning off the ATO pump itself? Please post your existing code.

Just need the Ato off completely. Since the Ato reservoir has the Kalk.
Here’s the Ato pump:

Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If ATK_LO OPEN Then ON
If ATK_HI CLOSED Then OFF
When On > 005:00 Then OFF
Defer 000:10 Then ON
Defer 000:04 Then OFF
Min Time 060:00 Then OFF

Without considering what others have said:

Add the following line to your program:
Code:
If pH > 8.3 Then OFF
