Tuesday, February 28, 2012 | Question by: Rapid Customer | Product code: 61-1315

Q. Sorry for asking something so basic, but I'm sure it must be relatively straight forward to cobble something together??? I have an RO system that produces water. The water pipes into a 25L jerrican. What I would like to do is set up an automated mechanism to divert the water to a separate t-piece outlet when one jerrican fills so that the water goes into a second container. Hope that makes sense, really appreciate any advice. Realise this isn't exactly what your 'submit a question' section is for, but here's to hoping. Thanks, Darren

A. Thanks for your enquiry Darren. Something like the 61-1360 or a 61-1300 would be a suitable sensor to detect that the jerry can is full. This could either activate a pump or diversion process that would be activated by the sensor.
