Hi, I have my Tunze 5017 Osmolator plugged into my energy bar of my Apex. I have it on a reverse cycle opposite my Kalk stirrer. When pH reaches a certain level the stirrer turns off and the Osmolator turns on. This is all within the bounds of how much water my tank evaporates a day.

The trouble is every time the osmolator turns on it dumps RO into the tank. I have reduced the flow of the pump through the potentiometer in the Tunze controller.

I was wondering if there is a way of turning this water flow off after start up?

Thanks for looking

Julian
 
Defiantly a feature about the tunze that sucks but i don't sweat it anymore. I don't see how 125ml of fresh RO can make a salinity difference in my tank.

I will say the Tunze Nano does not do this.
 
Thanks for the reply.

I measured my amount this morning I am getting 250ml even with the flow turned down. I did not know that about the Nano though.

I guess they are all different. Mine fills up a pee cup to basically over filling then shuts off. The nano doesn't do this at all.

And i to run an Apex.
