I was looking to see if there was a recommended maximum length of the sample inlet line. If I have a 30" line from my sump to the Director will it read the current water conditions or will it be one sample behind?

What you mentioned reminds me of HVAC equipment that purges gases first before starting cycle.
Wonder if KH did something similar? But, of course with H2O.

Sample line length doesn't matter. That length is input during setup and the KHD will calculate the volume of water in the line. After each measurement it then reverses the doser head and empties the line. Fresh tank water for every measurement!

Fantastic, thanks!

I guess that is why I couldn't find it called out in any documentation.
