7. Restauració d'energia: Restore power to the pool control system.
8. Calibració: Proceed to the calibration section of this manual or refer to your main system's instruction manual for pH probe calibration procedures. Proper calibration is crucial for accurate readings.

6. Operating the pH Probe

The GLX-PROBE-PH probe operates by continuously measuring the pH level of your pool water and sending this data to your Hayward control system. The control system then uses this information to regulate chemical dispensing.

• Seguiment continu: Once installed and calibrated, the probe will provide real-time pH readings to your control system.
• Integració del sistema: The probe works in conjunction with your Hayward Sense and Dispense or salt chlorine generator to maintain optimal pH levels automatically.
• Calibration Importance: Regular calibration is essential for maintaining the accuracy of pH readings. Refer to your system's manual for recommended calibration frequency.

7. Manteniment

Proper maintenance extends the life and accuracy of your pH probe.

• Neteja: Periodically inspect the probe tip for deposits or fouling. Clean gently with a soft brush and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for pH probes, if necessary. Rinse thoroughly with distilled water.
• Calibració: Calibrate the pH probe regularly according to your Hayward system's recommendations. This typically involves using pH buffer solutions (e.g., pH 7.0 and pH 10.0).
• Emmagatzematge: If removing the probe for an extended period, ensure the tip is kept moist in its original storage solution or a suitable pH probe storage solution. Never allow the probe tip to dry out. Store in a cool, dark place.
• Substitució: pH probes have a limited lifespan and will eventually need replacement, typically every 1-2 years depending on usage and water chemistry. Decreased accuracy or inability to calibrate are indicators for replacement.
