Thanks Kato. The problem with Transducers is it would be running in a hostile environment. This can be circumvented by isolating with a diaphragm (Synthetic rubber mounted between 2 flange fittings, with distilled water on the sensor side), but the mechanical solution should be reliable because...

Thanks, Crad. I am only interested in checking the pump is pumping. I have a Davey Multi-speed pump (which has been very reliable & is now years old). It normally runs on mid speed so there is enough flow to run the (clone) Liquidator chlorinator (fyi, if the oz means Aus, the liquidator runs a...

I have just ordered these: WFS27 G3/4" Female...

Hi, I want to detect that the pump has primed properly, so wish to put a flow sensor in the pump outlet line. I am setting my house up to be ´Smart´. I have an EV, & heaps of Solar, so want to automate the pool filtration as well, but as I might not be there, I need to ensure the pump is not...

John, I have never found a problem with metal build-up, possibly because our high rainfall flushes enough water from the pool over a few months. My issue is water storage, not water availability. WE have a dry season of 3-4 months which is the biggest problem time. (We only have rainwater...

Some years ago, I built a DIY chlorinator that uses the principle of the 'Liquidator' I have always had problems with the float valves, because the original Liquidator is not available in Australia, & until now, I have ot found reasonably priced Float valves. The valves have jammed (over a...

I am not sure why tou say the Ionisers are not loved. I had a lot of problem with the pool going green before I fitted an Ioniser. I now use much less chemical, & the pool rarely goes green. I was surprised that when I started using the Ioniser, I got a froth build up in the skimmer box (which...

Hi, I have been running my own home-built chlorinator that works on a similar principle to the Liquidator (The Liquidator is not available in Australia) My Chlorinator is based on a 'Wheelie' (Garbage) HDPE 120 litre bin. I have modified float valves to use with the chlorinator, but like some...

I am in Australia, so the Liquidator is not available here. Therefore I built my own version of this device. I used a (new) HDPE wheelie (rubbish/garbage) bin for the tank: 60L capacity. I use 1/2 inch HDPE float valves, the fill valve is standard with a brass lever, but is OK because it is...
