Expierencing pink water in our sodi

[Jasonp40]

Expierencing pink water in our sodium hypo generation system after receiving a batch of salt. I have been looking to see if anyone else has had this problem but can never find a answer or solution to the problem.

It seems to shed the pink color off the cells after it's done generating

Look at my comments on this in an earlier post.

Did you ever find a conclusion to what was causing the problem?

Most likely the pink came from the pink thread seal tape.
Otherwise no.

We went through our fittings and found that our salt delivery line that is stainless may have not been welded with stainless causing corrosion to blow through with the salt delivery

Did you test Fe levels?
There are a few other impurities that will add color, but Fe is a good first guess.
