Simplified pH precision
Fine-tune your reservoir pH: The Bluelab pH Controller Wi-Fi takes the complexity out of pH management, making precision easier than ever before. That's because the built-in peristaltic pump provides precise control, delivering doses within a 0.1 pH tolerance. The pump also allows for variable speed for optimal flexibility to deliver the correct amount of solution, no matter your setup.
The Bluelab pH Controller Wi-Fi is also easy to use and program; simply choose the pH control direction that's best for your growing setup in the settings. You can either adjust for the pH-up (alkali) or pH-down (acid) direction.
Create the optimal pH environment
Stabilise your pH conditions: In recirculating and recycled reservoirs, your pH is constantly changing. That's because the nutrient composition will change according to the plants' needs.
And that's where the Bluelab pH Controller Wi-Fi can help – it will automatically track and adjust the pH levels in your reservoir, allowing you to walk away with complete peace of mind, knowing that your crops are in safe hands. After all, when you keep pH and temperature steady, you'll grow healthier plants, improving yield and quality.
Forget spot checks and manual adjustments – you can effortlessly enjoy thriving plant health and save thousands of hours without compromising quality.
In addition, this controller comes with a temperature probe, ensuring that all your pH measurements and doses will be automatically compensated for temperature. Simply set your pH target and let the Bluelab pH Controller Wi-Fi do the rest.
Stay connected to your plants
Monitoring and control from your phone: With built-in Wi-Fi capability, if enabled the Bluelab pH Controller Wi-Fi can display data in Edenic (an online software platform, visit Edenic.io for more information). Allowing growers to control pH levels from anywhere, any time.
Grow your best crops every time with Edenic and the power of Bluelab pH Controller Wi-Fi. Realtime monitoring, control, alerts, and insights right on your phone allow you to truly manage your growing environment from where you like when you like.

Built-in safety features
Plant-safe pH management: The versatile and hard-working Bluelab pH Controller Wi-Fi has a number of features that have been designed to put the safety of your plants first.
You can set discreet visual high and low alarms for your preferred pH targets; these alarms will let you know whenever your pH is out of range. To help keep your plants safe from excessive doses, dosing will not occur whenever your controller is in alarm mode.
What's more, you can set and customise dosing on- and off-times in the settings, which allows for effective mixing before the next dose, ensuring that you never overshoot your pH adjustments.

As a guide, Bluelab recommends the following maximum concentration for commonly used acids and alkalines;
Peristaltic Pump tubing (PharMed BPT)
Nitric Acid <35%, Phosphoric Acid <85%, Sulfuric Acid <30%, Citric Acid <60%, Potassium Hydroxide <60%, Potassium Carbonate Concentrated, Potassium Silicate <60%.
The chemical concentrations stated above are a guide. Variations in temperature, pressure, or UV exposure may cause tubing failure which could lead to serious injury if proper safety precautions are not followed. For this reason, it is recommended that the tubing be tested with the desired chemical in the specific application to determine suitability. No warranty (neither express or implied) is given that the information (here or in Bluelab literature) is accurate or complete or that any material is suitable for any purpose.
pH Controller Feed Solution; General Dilution Guidelines.
This is a step-by-step general guide for diluting the initial pH up and pH down fluid for your hydroponics system using pH Controllers.
Understand the Controller: Familiarise yourself with the features and functions of your controller. This will ensure you make the most out of its capabilities and understand how to operate it effectively.
Gather Materials: Collect all necessary materials for the dilution process, including the concentrated pH up and pH down fluids, appropriate protective wear for acid/base/corrosive materials for the face and body, distilled water, measuring cups or beakers, and a stirring rod or spoon.
Determine Dilution Ratio: Some pumps are much faster than others. Adequate dilution is crucial for controlling pH level changes effectively. It is a trial-and-error process to find the correct level of dilution of solution to feed into your controller. You will need to determine the dilution rate in a test reservoir with nutrients added. You want to avoid precipitation, or drastic changes in pH by the controller. Different solution concentrations will require different dilution rates. Larger reservoirs will require lower dilution rates.
Prepare Workspace: Set up a clean and spacious workspace where you can safely handle the fluids and perform the dilution process without any risk of contamination. Wear the protective gear.
Measure Fluids: Using a measuring cup or beaker, carefully measure out the required amount of concentrate pH up or pH down fluid and water. Pour the measured amount into a clean container designated for dilution, mixing thoroughly.
Test: Commence operation of the pH controller, and watch the variation in the pH on the controller (possibly accompany it with using your pH meter) to check the pH level of the solution. Ensure that the dilution of the source controller fluid is adequate so that wild swings in pH are not experienced. The pH up or pH down fluid must be moved in small enough increments so that the desired pH level is achieved without harming the plants with large fluctuations in pH, and so that the precipitation is avoided.
Record: After you have established the correct dilution ratio for your system and your pH adjustment fluid, record the initial dilution of the controller pH fluid, and the size of the adjustments made by the controller in the reservoir when it varies the pH. This data will help you to track and maintain consistency in your hydroponic controller's pH levels.
Label Solution: Label the diluted solution clearly with the date of dilution, the type of fluid (pH up or pH down), and the dilution ratio used. This will prevent confusion and ensure you use the correct solution when adjusting pH levels in your hydroponic system.
Store Properly: Store the diluted solutions in tightly sealed containers away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain their effectiveness over time.
By following these steps, you can effectively dilute the initial pH up and pH down fluids for your hydroponics system using your pH Controller, ensuring precise control over pH levels for optimal plant growth.
