Hello

I recently picked up an apex, trident and a doser and had some questions

Where in the sump should you place the probes from the apex?

Where in the sump should the lines from your doser feed into?

I’m thinking it should go in the return chamber but not 100% sure

Any help would be appreciated

Thank you

There isn't really a "right" way to do it.

I put my probes in the drain chamber and I dose in the last chamber with the return pumps.

I do this so that the dosing chemicals (kalkwasser for me) don't affect the pH and Salinity measurements.

There is a lot of flow going through my sump, so it mixes quickly doing this.

If you put them in the same chamber, your dosing can make your measurements read high.

Hope this helps :)
