Product Description
Vivid Creative Salinity Probe Stability Kit
Vivid Creative Salinity Probe Stability Kit is a probe shield and flow kit designed to help aquarium conductivity probes produce steadier salinity trend readings. By directing a controlled flow of water around the probe tip, the SPS Kit helps reduce interference from microbubbles, debris, and inconsistent water movement in sumps, overflows, and drain chambers.
VCA SPS Kit for More Stable Salinity Probe Readings
Conductivity probes can become unstable when bubbles or debris collect around the probe end. The Vivid Creative SPS Kit fits over the end of a compatible conductivity probe and creates a more controlled pressure and flow environment, helping the probe recover faster if bubbles enter the housing and making the salinity trend line easier to trust.
Salinity Probe Shield and Flow Features
- Helps shield conductivity probes from microbubbles and debris.
- Designed to create controlled water movement and pressure around the probe tip.
- Can help produce a steadier salinity trend line for aquarium monitoring.
- Fits Neptune Systems conductivity probes and similar 12 mm conductivity probes with a comparable electrode design.
- Can be supplied by a small pump such as a Neptune PMUP, Sicce Micra, or a suitable manifold port.
- Useful in sump, overflow, or drain chamber installations.
- Includes 1/4" supply line and adapter components for common setup options.
SPS Kit Compatibility and Flow Details
- Product type: Salinity probe stability and flow kit
- Application: Conductivity probe shielding and salinity reading stabilization
- Probe compatibility: Neptune Systems conductivity probe and similar 12 mm conductivity probes
- Recommended pump source: Small pump or controlled manifold feed
- Recommended pump rating: Approximately 60-90 gph for best results
- Flow caution: Avoid excessive flow because too much flow can affect the reported reading.
- Included line: Approximately 34" / 86 cm of 1/4" supply tubing
- Probe and feed pump: Sold separately
Vivid Creative SPS Kit Setup Directions
- Confirm the conductivity probe is compatible before installation.
- Install the pressure screen in the SPS housing and handle it carefully because the screen and probe tip are delicate.
- Wet the SPS housing with aquarium water if needed so the probe slides into place more smoothly.
- Carefully insert the probe through the top of the SPS housing until it seats against the pressure screen.
- Connect the 1/4" supply line to the quick-connect fitting.
- Connect the other end of the line to a suitable pump or controlled manifold port.
- Submerge the probe and SPS Kit before turning on the flow source.
- Gently shake the assembly and briefly cover the lower opening to help expel trapped air.
- Allow the reading to settle; the stabilization period may take a few minutes to about an hour.
