Water Sensor Tube
Re: Water Sensor Tube
Yes, but that's how I started the development and tested it initially... Got lazy and never bothered to "fix it" later.
With the way I'm using it, I really don't care where the 100% is, right?

Re: Water Sensor Tube
I got it secured tonight, added an extra heater clip and it seems very solid right now. I'm going to let it read the next few days and keep an eye on it to see how it does. Then I'll use it for my ATO after I see how it does.
My Reef Angel ATO Pump should be here in a couple days, then I can finish my ATO mods and be done with that part.

Re: Water Sensor Tube
Got it all mounted and worked into the system this week.
A double heater mount plus a single heater mount, and it's solid. I let it work all week to see how the readings would be, got my RA ATO pump Thursday, and then swapped everything over. So far so good.........everything is working good with much better accuracy then the old float switch.

Re: Water Sensor Tube
I did something similar to what Lee said in a couple of posts back.
I took a 1/2" T and drilled out the stop that keeps the pipe from going all the way thru.
the cut a slit in the other part of the T tha same size as my sump wall or tank banding and it keeps it perfectly still.

Re: Water Sensor Tube
Is there any reason that the sensor needs to be 1/2 inch pipe? Wouldn't it work just fine if the airline tubing went to the bottom of the tank?
