Anyone experienced Apex liquid level sensor interfering with Tunze osmalator 3 sensor?

I have had problems with a relatively new Tunze osmalator 3 ATO. It is in the return chamber of an IM 40L. The problem is that it frequently fills to the point that the the safety temp based sensor has to stop it and the red light comes on indicating that the safety sensor has been activated. I worked with Roger from Tunze and still had the problem with UV light and refugium lights off. There was also no siphoning going on (reservoir below tank, drainage tip above water line). Roger sent me a new sensor which I installed last night

Uv and refugium lights still off. It worked last night but this morning the same thing happened shortly after I moved a 15 inch apex liquid level sensor right next to it. The sensor is electrostatic tape. The problem is clearly related to my set up as it happened with 2 different sensors. I reached out again to Roger to see whether he has heard of the Apex liquid level sensor interfering? OF note, UV light interferes with the infrared ATO sensor through electronic interference (not light mediated). I wonder if the liquid level sensor is interfering through a similar mechanism.

I just moved the liquid level sensor away from the ATO sensor. While I wait for these results and to hear from Roger from Tunze, I am wondering if anyone else has experienced problems with the Apex liquid level sensor interfering with the ATO senso

I've had issues in the past with ATO sensors in my IM tank due to the tank light. Put a cover over that chamber and no issue since.
