No the stock controller only accepts the stock optical sensorThat’s interesting, can you replace the optical sensor with a float switch with the built in controller?

That’s awesome! Believe it or not I have the same sump, and found the “integrated” ring a huge pain as well. I lack the 3D printing skills so went a bit more old school. I ended up cutting the edges off the ring so it would fit through the sump opening and then made a “gasket” for the Klir assembly to sit on that would seal the filter opening.I am in the process of completely rebuilding my 58 gallon setup. I took advantage of the 25% discount and opportunity with replumbing the system to add a 7" Klir. I have a Zero Edge Series 7 26" sump and with a minor modification I was able to get the filter to fit. The main box fit fine but the round ring that goes in the filter sock would not clear the opening when attached to the filter. I am not sure why the designer decided to secure the ring in place but I was able to modify the design and 3D print a new ring that has clearance for the bottom 1/2 of the filter to slide through so it does not have to come out with the main box.
Yes, until the water reaches the sensorWhere is the optical sensor located? Is it above the water?
I was having issues with mine and bubbles and condensation on the sensor and the motor would run until I physically wiped the sensor with my handYes, until the water reaches the sensor
Make sure the beveled flat edge of the sensor is horizontal or parallel with the water. Also make sure water is not splashing or build up of moisture on the sensor, may have to position sensor on opposite side of water flow may help.This is how it looks in my sump

Just curious, do you have a pic of how your klir sits in the sump?location
To add, I made sure that the drains return water below the level to avoid splashing and other surface agitation to reduce bubbles and excess aerationJust curious, do you have a pic of how your klir sits in the sump?
I thought it was possibly the sensor was the wrong way, however this is how it is cut to fit in the slot. The beveled edge is up and down, so vertical. This is incorrect?
