    ATK questions

    I have a few questions about the optical sensors on the ATK. 1. My low sensor only sees a minimum fluctuation in depth. The pmup turns on when the water is below the sensor, however it shuts off when the water level just touches the sensor. This adds about a pint of water to the returnpump chamber. 2. The water coming into the float valve mechanism is only slightly more than a trickle. I have removed the hose and turned the pmup on and the stream is a medium flow.


    Fallback OFF
    Set OFF
    If Swx4_1 OPEN Then ON
    If Swx4_2 CLOSED Then OFF
    Defer 000:10 Then ON
    Defer 000:04 Then OFF
    Min Time 060:00 Then OFF

    The image below is from Fusion when the ATO shuts off.

    You need to adjust the float if it's coming out as a trickle.

    You might be an engineer if...You have no life and can prove it mathematically.

    Thank you for your quick response. I pulled the float mechanism out and pushed the float down two clicks. I was hesitant at first as the float is a bit flimsy. Now the water comes out much faster.

    How is this not working? Do you get any water flow at all?
