GHL just released a new video on how to use a GHL Doser as an ATO pump when connected to ProfiLux controller.

+1... I was having issues a while back doing this very thing. Vinny helped me figure it out. I wonder if I had any influence on him making this LoL. Now would be a great time to to a second part to this and setting up the AWC in conjunction with this ATO.

Anyone out there use the Profilux to control a Tunze Osmolator 3155? Or any other ATO instead of the 2.1 Doser? Any pointers on setting it up?

Before I switched to the Maxi Doser I used a 3155. I would use the Profilux to shut it off during maintenance. Basically just would switch it off and on for this or that. Nothing to complicated.

If you want to use the Osmolator, you can plug it into one of the powerbar outlets. Add a GHL float sensor right above the osmo sensors and set that sensor to "Leakage detection" mode so if the Osmo fails for some reason, the ProfiLux will turn OFF the osmo and trigger an alarm. The how-to video on that is here:


The other option is to plug-in any normal utility pump and drop it in the ATO reservior. Plug that pump into the powerbar outlet and follow the ATO setup video:
