Hey guys. I'm trying to figure out how to automatically refill my ATO container once a day, safely. I'll run so rodi lines from the sump to the basement which is maybe 50-70ft total, and 1 floor so maybe 10-12' of head pressure.
Apex unit and will be buying the 5 gallon bashsea ATO. I have one Kamoer FX-STP WIFI for my sulfur de-nitrator and the specs for it show it will accomplish what I want so I was going to buy another one and put it in my sump. Should be able to easily pull rodi water from basement. I hope...
The issue are the sensors.
Thinking either 1 or 2 apex MOS Magnetic Optical Sensors inside ATO container, (both placed near top where 2nd one is a fail safe in case the 1st one doesn't shut off water just in case), and set neptune to refill ATO container from basement every night at a set time. Determine how long it would actually take to refill and add maybe 5-10 minutes in case it needs more water.
So apex magnetic sensors are activated all the time. Link sensors to shut off power to Kamoer doser if they register water. And then set apex to only turn Kamoer power on once per night for roughly 30 minutes.
Or maybe instead of magnetic sensors to use the new liquid level sensor and notch out the ATO container top to make it fit. Not sure if this is possible. Same as above. Refill up to a set limit, then shut off Kamoer. Since I set Kamoer is only allowed to turn on for 30 minutes, that's the only refilling time it has all day.
Anyone else doing automatic refills on their ATO container? I wouldn't dare run the RODI directly into the sump and use it strictly as a ATO. Too many things can go wrong. So figured refilling ATO container is next best thing.
thanks!
