Apex return pump setup ques

[stan80]

Im Fixing to plug my return pump into the apex is this the correct setup??? All i want to make sure happen is if a power outage occurs then it would come back on once power restored and that it shuts off and then back on if leak detection is sensed

The leak detection setup you have there it will remain on. Wouldn't you want to have it shut off completely so you can determine what the leak is first, then you can turn it back on when it's ready?

For the pump to shut off when it detects a leak yes...how do i need to do it?

 

[stan80]

It wont come back on though until i fix what made it overflow right? Cause the leak detectors will still be wet until i dry them

If the leak detector is closed when leak detected then you need the off statement not on. It looks like it's on when closed.

So i need to change it to off instead of on correct?

Here is my program. I have it shut down during feed periods and use a virtual outlet to monitor the Apex for leaks.

Fallback ON
If Time 10:06 to 10:16 Then OFF
Set ON
If Time 12:04 to 12:19 Then OFF
If Time 14:04 to 14:19 Then OFF
If Time 16:04 to 16:19 Then OFF
If Time 18:00 to 18:16 Then OFF
If Outlet Leak_detect = ON Then OFF
If FeedA 000 Then OFF
If FeedD 000 Then OFF

The line between is a feeding time I took off line.

Can someone show me what the setup would look like if i wanted the return pump to shut off if the water level in sump drops to low?

You need an auto float switch that would close when the water level gets too low. Maybe something like this. I am not recommending it as I know nothing about it. I use an auto float switch on my AWC reservoir to hut down the AWC pumps when water is low.

Add a float switch with Apex breakout box. Then code it to your return pump

If swX closed/open then off (depending if float is normaly close or open)
