Pool Controller and Spa Controller – AquaSense
Do you want stable chemical control and an odor free bathing environment for the users of your pools and spas? If so the AquaSense from Pi addresses and resolves the issues that plague swimming pools and spas, such as; overdosing of chlorine leading to odors and excessive chemical usage, poor pH control leading to sore eyes and complaints, and periods of low or zero chlorine residuals leading to bacteriological failures and problems with the local health authorities.
AquaSense uses the highest quality sensors and the latest in control algorithms to ensure that the chlorine levels stay where you want them to be, no silly spikes and troughs which means that you have a trouble-free pool or spa.
The AquaSense has been designed to three criteria:
- The Best Chemical Control – the best sensors leads to better process control which leads to less variation in chlorine residuals, (even with highly variable bathing load), reduced chemical usage, and lower costs.
- The Best Bather Experience – better process control means less variation in chlorine residuals, meaning you get reduced chemical usage, lower costs and the best possible bathing experience.
- Reduced Costs – lower chemical costs, less expensive controllers, inverter control leading to hugely reduced electrical usage costs. These are just a few of the ways that the AquaSense can save you money which can pay for a new controller in just a few months!
The AquaSense offers a number of key benefits essential to the safe and cost effective running of a pool or spa.
- Stable and reliable residual chlorine and pH measurement and control – no chlorine odors and no red-eye!
- Low total cost of ownership (and reduced maintenance)
- Text/email alarms, and cloud based compliance monitoring
- Recirculation pump inverter control for massive electricity and CO2 savings
- Good for fresh water pools, salt water and outdoor pools with cyanuric acid
- Private label option for re-sellers
- Additional sensors if you need them; total chlorine, turbidity, particle counter, conductivity etc.
The AquaSense is a high quality controller giving you the best control and the best value for money. For more technical information contact us today.
Pools – The sensors used in AquaSense are the same sensors that we use in our municipal water treatment analyzers, meaning that you get the highest quality sensors at the best price.
These sensors mean that the pH and chlorine are measured accurately all of the time with little or no operator intervention for months at a time and with no routine maintenance for a year.
Pools are controlled precisely meaning that operators can lower their residuals to a minimum without fear that the residuals will dip when the bather load increases.
Easy to set up and operate, the AquaSense can control the most difficult of pools meaning that your pool is always in compliance with local regulations and always provides your bathers with the most pleasant bathing experience.
Spas – Spas present their own problems when it comes to control. Small, warm bodies of water where the chlorine demand can go high very quickly are notoriously difficult to control. With its advanced control algorithms, AquaSense has proven to be more than up to the job.

Traditionally, pool chemistry has been controlled by using ORP (Redox) or residual chlorine sensors. Often the quality of these sensors has been suspect and it doesn’t matter how good the control electronics are, if the sensors aren’t good then the quality of the pool water won’t be good.
Chlorine Sensors
The sensors that the AquaSense utilizes are the best currently available in the world today. The main free chlorine sensor is a three electrode, membraned sensor with lower susceptibility to changes in pH. That means that when the pH changes the chlorine reading doesn’t so the two control loops controlling your chlorine and your acid don’t end up chasing each other. Not only that but maintenance on the sensor is only once per year and it can go months between calibrations. Sensors for chlorine in the presence of cyanuric acid and for saltwater pools and for total chlorine are also available.
pH and ORP Sensors
The pH and ORP sensors are made specifically for the AquaSense. They are stable, accurate, easy to use and reliable. These AquaSense pH and ORP sensors are not the low-quality sensors that are often supplied to the pool industry but are based on the sensors used in municipal water works where quality is way more important than price. Not that the AquaSense sensors are expensive, but they are high quality.
The science and technology behind the success of the AquaSense is the de-coupling of the pH and the chlorine measurement. What that means is that the chlorine and the pH can be controlled independently from each other, or put another way changing the pH doesn’t affect the chlorine reading on the chlorine sensor. Unlike ORP measurements which are badly affected by changes in pH, the amperometric chlorine sensor in the AquaSense is unaffected by changes in pH leading to a more chemically stable bathing water. In turn this means that the levels of the chemicals in th pool water can be lower and therefore leading to a much more pleasant bathing experience for the customers.
