Aquatic Life RODI Unit - Shutoff Valve

[Drwonga]

Hi Guys,

I'm getting back into the hobby, and I wanted to setup an actual RODI water and salt mix station. I was going to install a float switch to my RO water output, but I had a question regarding waste water shutoff. I have an Aquatic Life 100GPD RO unit that is pressurized with a booster pump. If I hook up the float switch, will that automatically turn off the booster pump and shut off the waste water? Based on the instructions, it sounds like there is a switch that will turn off the booster pump and waste water when there is either low pressure, high pressure, or a spill. I just wanted to double check this was all I needed. Thanks!

You need a pressure switch that is tied into the power lead of the booster pump.

Aquaticlife makes the RO Budddy that is a booster pump/auto flush/auto cutoff unit. Works really well. The autoflush feature is nice to have.

Hi Vincent,

Thanks for the info! I'll take a look and see what is currently installed, and if it is hooked directly to the booster pump.
