These timers are cheap and highly adjustable for time on or off. Great for skimmer delay or ATO off timer.

NO, BAD!!! Need our controllers instead!!

LOL
 
I work in industrial maintenance, We use a lot of the these type controllers for different functions. Not used to working with less than 480 volts and was surprised the same controllers were availible for low voltage. I have a wire schematic with 2 relays drawn up for an ATO that cuts the pump when reservoir is empty. But that's to reliant on electricity, I will stick to my gravity ATO

Sweet! Can you share the schematic with us?
 
sure, it was for me, but you should be able to make it out, all you need to do is add the timer to the pump circuit to stop over run. I can make it more user friendly tomorrow
