Remineralizers

Troubleshooting GH/KH remineralizer calculations, component solubility issues, and TDS measurement in prepared water

Inaccurate GH/KH calculation results

Problem: Obtained hardness values don't match expected ones

Solution:

  • Check correctness of reagent mass input
  • Ensure component solubility data is correct
  • Check test with calibration solution

Remineralizer doesn't dissolve completely

Reason: Solubility of one of the components exceeded

Solution:

  • Check solubility limits
  • Increase water volume for dissolution
  • Use step-by-step component dissolution

Incorrect TDS in prepared water

Reason: Not all dissolved substances are accounted for or calculation error

Solution:

  • Check TDS of each component separately
  • Check TDS meter with 0.9% sodium chloride calibration solution (saline). 1 ml of saline increases TDS by 9 ppm in 1 L of RO water. This way you can check different measurement ranges by gradually adding 1 ml of saline to a container with RO water.
  • Compare calculated and measured TDS values
  • Selected reagent is not in the remineralizer calculation system (notify support)
