Understanding Your Results
Column A provides the amount of chemical, in ounces, and the corresponding feed time needed to achieve a 1/2 PPM increase during the feed cycle. Column B provides the same information for a 1/4 PPM increase.
Once you have your calculated feed time, round up to the nearest available feed time setting on your controller.
| Pump | Feeder GPD | COLUMN A: 1/2 PPM per Cycle | COLUMN B: 1/4 PPM per Cycle | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dose per feed cycle (Oz) | Seconds per feed cycle | Dose per feed cycle (Oz) | Seconds per feed cycle | ||
