NSPI recommended ranges or water chemistry must be manually corrected. 1.11 WARNING! Controller uses microprocessor. Wireless communication equipment or other electrical devices operated in close proximity may cause inadvertent actuation of chemical feed pumps.

Note: If the ORP reading is out of the pre-set alert range for more than ten (10) minutes the ORP red alert lamp will illuminate and the ORP feeder will be disabled. The system will automatically reset when the alert condition has been cleared by itself or by an operator. ROLA-CHEM Digital Controller PN 554135 5/04/2017...

The controller has a flow switch terminal located inside the lower panel on the left side. It is shipped with a jumper in place. The terminal must either have the jumper or a flow switch installed. ROLA-CHEM Digital Controller PN 554135 5/04/2017...
The pH sensor can drift slightly over time and calibration will offset this drift. Always calibrate using water from the sample port of the flow cell and use an independent pH test method to determine pH value of sample, unless using preset buffer solution.

The controller must be in this mode for the feeders to maintain the desired parameters. Note: When using the RC554XP or 554000 controller with ROLA-CHEM pumps, the pump switch should be in the CONTINUOUS position (not Timed or Off).
* Pump/feeders must be large enough to reach desired set-points in a relatively short time. Automation using controllers may require larger feeder or more concentrated chemicals than system that uses continuous time controlled feeding (i.e. feeders only).

If these two steps are not performed the controller will remain in test mode and it will not operate properly. If an error code continues to appear contact ROLA-CHEM service personnel. 6.5 Digital Display numbers flashing * Consecutive Feed Alert Limit has been reached.

The Consecutive Feed Alert Limit period can be set from 20 to 180 minutes on model RC554XP (default is 20) and can be independently set for both pH and ORP. The range on 554000 is 10 to 99 (default is 10).
