Aquapure General Fault 172/185

[fady]

Hello All, my Jandy terminal display " general fault check aquapure " and also shows salt as 25500 PPM , it was 2200 PPM before I got this strange number. I had to go to pool equepment and unscrew two screws to access aquapure board where it shows colorine producing 70% then after a while it displays 172 then 185 then goes back to 70% . the cells seems pretty clean. thanks for any hints

You need to check the tri-sensor (Temperature, salinity and flow).

6.5 Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor Cleaning

One time per year or as needed. It is rare but scale formations on the Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor sometimes

occur and will affect the accuracy of the salinity test.

1. Remove Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor from the threaded PVC Tee or 3-Port Cell by turning

counterclockwise or removing the union nut.

2. Brush with a mildly abrasive green fiber household cleaning pad. Contacts should be clean and bright.

3. Thoroughly rinse the Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor with clean tap water. Replace and resume normal

operation.

4. Turn power off and back on in order to recalibrate and reset Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor. Reset

anytime Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor is unplugged.

Hello quantumchromodynamics

Thanks for your reply but I'm having a hard time locating the Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor , my system is APURE700 , the assemply looks like figure 19 in page 39 of http://www.jandy-downloads.com/pdfs/AquaPure_Manual.pdf and yes the temperature reading is accurate for both air and pool temp

can you please guide me where can I find the Flow/Temp/Salinity Sensor

If you're having trouble looking for the fitting, fig 20 #3. The sensor threads into that fitting.

If you're having trouble looking for the sensor on line, Try this. Search returned so many, you probably want to shop them yourself.

Thank you Pool Clown, I located the sensor , it was hiddin facing downward on pvc pipe, I took it out and cleaned the three small silver sensor buds and plugged it back, recycled power but nothing change , still reads "SALT 25500 PPM General Fault, check aquapure " message.

does this mean sensor is gone or there is something else that could be checked?

I'm sorry but i'm afraid the sensor needs to be replaced.

You should be able to get a better price online than at your local pool store.
