Leakshield not releasing pressure quickly since Aquasuite X.50

Sunday, March 6th 2022, 4:47pm

Today I noticed that when changing my Leakshield to "release" mode, the pressure goes down extremely slow. It takes almost 2 minutes for the negative pressure to go down to 0 mbar. When I got my Leakshield a couple of months ago, releasing the pressure happened in just a few seconds. Switching it back to "protect" mode does increase negative pressure as fast as before so it's only releasing that has this issue.

I'm wondering if it's a firmware issue since just last night I installed Aquasuite X.50 which also update the firmware of all my Aquacomputer devices, Leakshield included.

Any idea what's going on?

Could be just a simple coincidence that is not releasing properly with the X50 version.

I had similar problem after 7 months of Leakshield, one day I just realised that my Leakshield is releasing the pressure very very slow, as you said, took like 2 min to do it.

To fix the problem I cleaned the membrane of the Leakshield with some alcohol, just use a piece of material and alcohol and easily clean the membrane, after that the Leakshield was working as new.

This is not an issue with the firmware. Could be your membrange is clocked, so you can carefully try to clean with isopropanol.
Which coolant and tubes are you using?
