I need to land on the most ideal way to design ATO system with ease and safety as the goal and would love some input! Will be supporting a Reefer 425G2+. Considerations: System will be on Apex (AWC via DOS). A 50g x 2 mixing station will be in basement which shares the same wall as tank/sump. Basement is ~ >50° during the winter, hoping small daily AWC will not affect overall temp and don’t know if adding unheated ATO will from same low temp room will necessitate heat in the system in some way, shape or form (probably will) during the winter.
Options I’m kicking around:
1: RedSea ATO+ pump straight into RODI container then ran through wall to sump (+ optical sensor tied to solenoid and/or float for redundancy)
2: Tank side separate ATO res for RS ATO+ either filled manually or automatically (filling automatically would just add more stuff to fail/leak and necessitate additional redundancy, so why not go straight from RODI reservoir)
3: RODI unit split off straight to sump (+ solenoid/optical sensor and float)
4:??
I don’t have a ton of constraints and want to do this right the first time, so I greatly appreciate all thoughts and input!
