PH & ORP Values?

NYC/NJREEFS · 02/23/2010, 02:15 AM

Hi everyone, I recently purchased a used AC2 from a fellow member and bought a new Ph and Orp probe for it. I want these probes to regulate a nitrate reactor and ca reactor so I need to know what value I need to maintain inside the nitrate reactor? and what value should I get from my Ca reactor's effluent coming out? What is the normal Orp value for the whole tank? Thanks in advance.

Ph coming out will be about 6.5 to 6.7 at that PH it will break down the Media in the reactor.
ORP on my tank runs from 310 to 350

Thanks for the response. I just need to know what should the Orp value be inside the nitrite reactor? Its a Aquamedic w/ the demni balls as media. Thanks again.

I have an Aquamedic NR100 and when the orp value in the reactor reaches -70mv the niveaumat starts to work by the help of the controller unit.It should be between -70 and -250 mv while inside the tank i keep it around +350mv.
