I have an Apex system and I have a FMM module. I want to use the 1 inch flow sensor but I have 2 questions about it.
This will be installed on a return line form my UV running 3/4 tubing.
1. Will it work to do from 3/4 to 1 inch and then back down to 3/4 after the meter?
2. The specs show it measure flow from 150 GPH to 1500GPH. I need the measure around 120 GPH, will it show that or will the lowest speed it shows be 150 GPH?
I tried to find some flow meters on Amazon and I thought I found one, but after careful inspection it looks like they are using some metal parts on the fly wheel.
Do I have any other alternatives for a flow meter around 75 dollars that can connect to 3/4 tubing? (I can use pvc reducers and barb fittings to make most of them work, just having trouble finding any that are made for saltwater aquariums)
thanks
Keith
