Problem am having is placing the sensors in the return section I have had to put them in the main section of sump were the skimmer is my sump is to tight to get into the return section would this be issue set up like this you think

Am only doing a couple of litre twice a day am leaving the tank fully running wile it dose the water change the ato dose switch off 30 min before it starts and comes back on 30mins after the water change

Has anyone got it set up like this or is there a better method to having it set up my tank is 250l and I way to take 2l out twice a day so 4 litre in total a day this dose not let my return pump run dry at this amount

Thanks

Now the issue placing the sensor in your skimmer section is that the water level here will remain steady while the water level in your return section will still continue to drop.

It's a very small sensor, are you sure you can't make room for it?

Could you share some pictures of your sensor and your sump?

Been using like this for a few days seems to be ok
Do you know if the dry side magnets are safe to be put in the water
I can’t get them into return section of sump unless I go from inside the sump to attach the sensors
