I am testing ATO-AWC functions
Yesterday I set up a test bed to figure out the ATO and AWC functions in the Profilux.
This is the video I followed to test things
My observations are these:
1. The timer fail safe function, when engaged during the water removal process and reset causes the ATO to start. The problem here is if you are removing salt water during your water change the system upon reset try's to add back RODI water. This will cause a drop in salinity. The likely hood of this happening is unlikely. The reason I saw this occur is my line that was in the bucket started to suck air and the timer shut my system off.
2. Since I had the above problem it got me thinking that a timer failsafe would be ideal in all three functions. Also when an error/failsafe occurs it would be best to have the unit finish where it left off. Presently when an error occurs and is reset then the ATO function starts adding RODI water, because it senses a low water condition.
Next I might try a different set up. But I’m having trouble with timers interfering with feed filters. I have a support ticket in for this. @Vinny@GHLUSA
