    zodiac jandy apurem low current to cell

    I'm sorry I can't remember clearly but I suspect the cell was the problem because I have record that on March 30, 2016 I ordered a Zodiac R0452400 3-Port Cell Replacement Kit for Zodiac Jandy PureLink APURE1400 AquaPure Water Purification System.

    Salt Cell Port Dry Multimeter Resistance

    What is the Ohm resistance supposed to be on a new salt water cell between the common and outer ports? A Jandy AquaPure R0452400 PLC1400 3-Port Cell was burning center port and melting connector. Disconnected and dry, the resistance from center to outer is about 7kOhms (10kOhms between outers)...

    Salt Cell Refurbishing

    I tried soldering iron tests but could not get the solder to stick to the probe or the plate.

    Salt Cell Refurbishing

    Thanks for clarifying. I started reassembling it and thought I came up one short. I wonder why the center groove is twice as wide as the plate, as if it was designed for two face-to-face. Also, the slotted clam-shell enclosure is different parts. The other is marked "A0119903 .040 BLADE". Also...

    Salt Cell Refurbishing

    How do you refurbish a salt cell? I had two bad Jandy AquaPure R0452400 3-Port PLC1400's so I cracked one open with a flat pry bar. The terminal end has an oblong groove around the body where the ends are glued together. The glue is stronger than the plastic but at least the plastic at that seam...

    I wonder the same thing. I had two bad PLC1400's so I cracked one open with a flat pry bar. The terminal end has an oblong groove around the body where the ends are glued together. The glue is stronger than the plastic but at least the plastic at that seam is weaker so it cracked along that...

    zodiac jandy apurem low current to cell

    Do you know what the A and B LEDs on the PIB are for? B was on solid for most of the time and then at the end of my troubleshooting A started blinking bright and B blinking dim. I see on the sensor cord a control pod that has Program A and B buttons on it, but I wouldn't expect the LEDs to both...

    zodiac jandy apurem low current to cell

    workbook test points: 75VAC (67-87) is 80; 65VAC (60-75) is 69; 19VAC (17-24) is 20; 12VDC (11.8-12.2) is 11.8; 24VDC (not listed) is 26. Is the 11.8V being as the low end of the good range indicative of a problem? Is 26V for 24V silk screen test point a problem? I swapped where the DC cord...

    Per http://www.nuccibros.com/sec_0934drRb_dl/data_sheets/Jandy%20AquaPure%20Workbook.pdf TEST VOLTAGE AT THE CELL should be about +25VDC; mine is -32 VDC from center to both sides (common black in middle and red to outside); that was with the cell on (but not reverse). CELL VOLTAGE & CURRENT...

    zodiac jandy apurem low current to cell

    Hi. > I'm not sure what you propose would work I hope someone can tell me what the expected voltage/current is. Then I can compare that with my multi-meter to find out whether the cell it bad. If it is bad then I can order it myself and save a service call, because installing a new cell is...

    zodiac jandy apurem low current to cell

    I am wondering if you have any advice for me before I call out a pool professional to work on my chlorinator. I would like to know how to test my chlorinator DC level and/or current level with a multimeter. I have Zodiac Jandy m/n APUREM. It is reporting Service LED with code number 121 (Low...
