It connects to a compatible Apex controller and automatically sends test results to Apex Fusion, where parameters can be monitored, graphed, and used to trigger alerts or other programmed actions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Trident uses automated titration with colorimetric measurement to provide consistent testing without manual test kits or probe calibration. Testing frequency can be configured for up to 24 tests per day, providing detailed insight into parameter trends and consumption.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eAutomatically tests alkalinity, calcium, and magnesium\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTests up to 24 times per day\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDisplays and graphs results in Apex Fusion\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSupports high and low parameter alerts\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCompatible with Automatic Dosing Control when paired with Neptune Systems DŌS or DŌS QuietDrive\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCompatible with Apex A2 and A3 systems\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eAutomatic Testing \u0026amp; Apex Integration\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Trident automatically draws a water sample, performs each test, and sends the results to Apex Fusion.
