Hi people,
I always have mr flow controller set at the same number
Theese are digital, but the last week or so I've noticed
That the flow keeps changing, sometimes the flow drops
A bit low and dome times the flow is so high
The water is bouncing of the windows and making a noise
On the glass!
Any ideas?? Would it need to be re calibrated or would it be
Some thing else ? The system is only about 8 months
Old and from the cleaning ware house
Many thanks
Colin.

is the controller number changing or just the dropping off then coming back up ?
i'd check the batt first - make sure you have plenty of charge in it

No mate staying on the same number!
I've got a split relay on the bat I'll check that is working ok
Cheers mate

If the flow rate on the controller is staying the same it may be a battery voltage issue, Does the controller show BATT?
Also check you connections between the controller and pump try to keep cables as short as possible as the longer the cable the greater volt drop.
It may also be ensuring there are no restrictions or blockages in the hose or jets.
Failing all the above if you have altered or changed any of your fittings it may just be you need to re calibrate the controller.

cheers ian, ive just checked at the above and all seens fine and dandy, never says batt,
probly just have to re-call the controller.... this should be fun as ive miss placed the instructions ::)

Colin I have just emailed instructions to you.

Do you have anything "after" the pump, like a DI vessel?
Also check your strainer, it could well need cleaning! I've just had to sterilise my tank after it was full of microscopic algae & was blocking the strainer within an hour!!
