    Default Emergency skimmate collector with level sensor

    Hi
    I have to go in hospital for a few days and need to setup a skimmate collector which will turn off the skimmer when full.

    Can anyone tell me how to setup the optical sensor I have to do this, I have a 5 litre container I can use to collect the skimmate. It's all a bit off a rush.

    The skimmer is on a GHL pab socket, which is set to always on, the level sensor is connected to level 3. Profilux EX.

    Thanks
    Tony

    Can you use a level sensor and place it inside of the chamber?
    I cut and spliced the cable and inserted inside the collection cup.
    That worked for me.

    Assigned THAT level sensor lets say sensor 1 to the socket in which the PS is plugged into.
    Then use Fill Water 1 and assign that to the Socket in which PS is connected.
    That should be it.
    Test it before but once you have that you can play with sensor. I am using leakage sensor as my input. And them I have it set up for it to trigger 2 seconds after water hits the sensor. Then PS will turn off and I will receive an alarm.
