JBJ ATO Help

[redfishblewfish]

I picked up a used JBJ ATO to use on a JBJ 28 tank. My interests were to set it up using both floats to turn the pump off when they "œfloated". I basically want a two float system to assure when one switch went bad, the other would still turn off the pump to the water reservoir.


So I'm looking at the instructions and I don't see were that is an option with the JBJ.



Am I missing something? I really want a backup float valve since there is no extra volume in an All-In-One tank to fit all that extra reservoir water when the switch goes bad.

Hook up the flow swithches in series.

1. Make sure both switches are set up the same way. Both on when up or both on when down. depending on your setup. In your case up is off.

2. Take one wire from each switch and twist the ends together and put a wire nut or tape on it.

3. Connect the other wires from float switches to your ato.

4. Done.
