👨‍🔬Skimmer Calibration

This tutorial shows how to calibrate the sensor for pH on your smart skimmer.

Tools Needed

Before we start the calibration, you will need

• pH7 calibration solution

• pH10 calibration solution

• Sensor plastic cap for fluid

• Protective gloves

Step 1 - Plug in skimmer

Take the skimmer out from the pool and plug in the USB so that the blue light comes on.

Step 2 - Fill up sensor plastic cap with pH7 solution

This solution is yellow, yours may be a different color.

Corrosive Liquid Warning - Although pH buffer solutions are typically safe, please consider wearing gloves when performing these steps.

Please fill up the cap about a fifth of the way full with the solution.
