Please note that some items in the menu are dynamic and can only be changed when certain preferences are visible. Filter Menu The menu item Filter Settings is only available for AQUACULTURE|CONTROL and FILTER|CONTROL.

If the cover is opened and the switch opens its contact, any cleaning that is taking place is immediately interrupted and a connected UVC lamp (this must be defined as a UVC lamp in the sockets menu) goes out.
  • Page 36 The system is automatically restarted several times and the water level and its changes are precisely evaluated. When the water levels are back in the normal range, the SENECT® Control unit automatically switches back to normal operation.

In addition, this prevents too frequent cleaning, which can be particularly important when the water level in the system is low. However, if the water level falls significantly below the cleaning water level (forced flush level - this lies between the flush level and the dry-running protection level), the cleaning pause is bypassed and rinsing is carried out to prevent the water level from falling below the emergency stop level.
