I posted this in the DIY section but I thought I would see if someone here could figure this out as well.
So I'm getting a Aquacontroller Pro and I wanted to hook it up to my kalk reactor to be able to control the pH and water level in the sump via a float valve.
Can someone draw me up an electrical schematic to give to my friend so he can build this?
What I'm thinking is this: With the float valve on, two scenarios would be in effect, a) If the pH is below 8.3, the Aquacontroller would send a signal to a relay to open the solenoid to let water into the kalk reactor and then into the tank or b) if the pH is above 8.4, the AC would send a signal to the same relay to open the solenoid to let pure ro/di water into the tank.
Is this possible?
Also, since I'm going to be doing this, the Aquacontroller also has a conductivity probe to monitor salinity. I skim somewhat wet so on occasion I have to add salt water to make up for the water that was removed via the skimmer. Could I rig up the AC and an extra solenoid to add salt water to the tank if the salinity was dropping due to the skimmer removing the salt?
Thanks,
Chris
