Hayward - W3AQR9 AquaRite Complete Salt System for Pools up to 25,000 Gallons
Hello. I converted to a new salt system last season and everything is brand new. Just recently, my Hayward AquaRite panel started to have some issues. The first issue was that the flow light was solid, so after some general troubleshooting I opted to replace the flow sensor. That resolved the flow light issue.
My current issue is that the salt readings have been wildly inconsistent and generally reading low. The Check Salt and Inspect Cell lights are flashing. I have detached and cleaned the cell (T-940 salt cell) with acid/water mix and cleaned thoroughly (even though there was no scaling or real need to clean it). I have attempted to re-calibrate the Salt PPM on the panel per the Hayward instructions, but that only lasts for a few hours until the next pump cycle and eventually the symptoms reappear. The salt readings have varied from 1200-2400, and its always different, which is very strange. I have a digital salt water tester and I have been using that as a baseline to test the salt levels. I am at a loss on how to get past this and could use some help. Thanks!
Here are my current stats:
Manual Digitial Salt PPM reading - 2870
AquaRite Panel:
Salt PPM - 2400
Pool Temperature - 74
Cell Voltage - 26.3 volts
Cell Current - 6.25 amps
Desired Output % - 61p
Instant Salinity -3300
Product Name - AL-0
Software Revision Level - r1.59
Chlorinator Cell Type -T-15
Pool size is kidney shape 16/32, roughly 20k gallons.
