Would be interested to know if it’s a similar mechanism with the strange pH readings in some units, or not.This is very interesting. I suppose they mean 0.0499 ppm NH3. At pH - 8 0.0499 ppm NH3 correspond to a total ammonia off 1.102 ppm at 35 psu and 25 degree C
Calculator from Hamza´s reef
pH 8.1
pH 8.2
Please @MnFish1 confirm that the 0.0499 limit is true and that it is NH3 concentration. NH3-N concentrations does not change it to much however - around 18 % more total ammonia (NH3+NH4)
if this is true - it will means that Seneye by themself says that you can´t trust their equipment and that it can damage their equipment if your total ammonia is over 0.7 - 1.1 ppm in normal aquarium pH (8.2 - 8.0) Most of the famous work threads with ammonia and Seneye monitoring has been started at total ammonia levels over 2 ppm
