In the process of setting up my new tank and want to monitor the ato demand via the apex. I. Order to do this can it be any ato brand or does it only work with the Neptune atk?

Thanks for the help.

You just need a liquid level sensor for the apex. You put it in the ATO reservoir and it tells you how many inches of water is in the reservoir. You have to do the conversion yourself to figure gallons based on the geometry of your reservoir. Then you can use any top-off kit you want. I use the Avast Parrot ATO as it has connectivity with apex and the apex ATK is horrible. I highly recommend the Parrot.

Here is what my liquid level sensor tells me in the apex app. You can see the daily drain and refill of the reservoir. I actually use the level sensor to trigger a solenoid valve that opens RODI flow to the reservoir when it reaches <5.5 inches and closes the valve when it gets to 9.5 inches.
