Aquarium Engineering Arc Calcium Reactor

Does anyone know what this plug is called and where I could get one. This is on the cap of the Arc double stack Calcium Reactor

How about that fload valve. I think the problem is one of the two. The gas wont shut off but when I play with the float it works for a bit then stops. If I can't figure this thing out I assume it's junk.

That float switch can be tested with a multimeter. But outside of that one being black you can get those on amazon as well. I'm not familiar with how he sealed that off, you'd have to be careful with that.

Anyway, if you have a multimeter, set it to continuity and probe the 2 prongs on that connector and move the float up and down. It should change state when moved from one position to the next.

Thanks do you have a link for the float switch? I tried the amazon you highlighted but it was Amazon home page

I just tried my meter it's stuck closed, so the gas won't shut off. It must be the float valve.

These were the one that inwas thinking about.

You'd have to ensure the threads are the same and that it will seal properly.

Thanks, I am worried about getting a good seal.

For anyone else that has this problem this is the float switch that was in my Arc. It is now working again.
