  • Page 10: Description

    5. DESCRIPTION 5.1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION & INTENDED USE BL100 & BL101 pump controllers are part of Hanna Instruments pool-line family and feature a single peristaltic dosing pump and a process electrode. BL100 accepts HI10053 pH probes. The BL101 accepts HI20083 ORP probes.
  • Page 11 BL100 measures the pH of a pool and offers automatic pH level control by adjusting the chemical dosing. BL101 measures the chlorine level of a pool and offers automatic ORP level control by adjusting the chemical dosing. BL100 BL101 can work together, stabilizing first the pH value and later the ORP value in the pool.
