sensor in my skimmer cup

[Dacalkins]

Good morning everyone

I'm looking a small sensor for my skimmer cup to monitor how full the cup is and shut down my skimmer if necessary. Hydros makes a skimmer sensor, but it is only being compatible with their controller.

Thanks

David

Hi David,

If you want, you can connect a normal float switch to the ProfiLux by using the PLM-ADIN card and a breakout board. I have been using this method since day one and it continues to work well. :)

If you want to use a native GHL float, you can. You will however need to modify the skimmer lid to fit the sensor plug.
