Neptune Trident Experience

[areefer01]

Where can I find a feed line filter for the Neptune. I saw they were in the newer Tridents but nobody sells the filter aftermarket.

I thought it was part of the sample line but I don't see it on their website. I don't believe it is sold separately at places like BRS. Maybe shoot Neptune a support ticket real quick and see what they say. Sometimes I've looked for things that are not available and they shoot me an invoice.

Worth a try. Mine came in on the self service kit.

Actually found a thread on here where one of the members found these from McMaster Carr. May give one of these a try. Just need to find out what micron would be the best one

Mine originally didn't come with one but when i got it back after being repaired last year they included it in the box.

Also got the filter when I did the maintenance swap. I am thinking about doing the reduced test frequency hack. Testing alk 4 times a day was always unnecessary …. Even more so for me now that I am just keeping softies. Agree that the 3d printed reagent guides are unnecessary. I’ve never had issues when the regent bottles get closer to empty.

It's great when it works. Keep up on maintenance and you'll be fine. And check out ABC reagents to save on ongoing costs.

I got mine used, and aside from having to manually prime the sample line (which took a bit to figure out), it’s been rock solid. I also only do half the testing (1 Alk and 1 full) to extend how often I need to buy reagents. I have noticed a little bit of drifting, but for me it takes a month or two and by that tone I just recalibrate because of needing new reagents. I spot check Alk with Hanna every couple of weeks.

I did open it up and purged all the lines with RODI water. After opening it up once, it’s really simple to do again if needed. As long as your slightly ok with minimal DIY stuff, it’ you’ll be fine.
