Tunze Osmolator Controlling a Peri Pump
Roger,
Is it possible for the Osmolator controller to switch a 240v Peri Pump? I appreciate it that only controls a 12v pump out of the box but do Tunze have an off the shelf switching socket to do something like this? Is there something I can cannabalise? I need to DIY with a power switching relay if not..... Thanks for any info Mark |

you may find the 10 minute cut off feature will be a problem with a peri pump
And yes I think this may help Switched socket outlet 3150.11 but have Roger confirm |

Thanks for the reply, I have a 3ltr/hr peri pump which I intend on using to account for evaporation and kalk dosing. I would rather use a peri pump through a kalk stirrer than continue with the supplied 12v pump through the Tunze calcium kit.
Roger, is the switched socket outlet what I need? Mark |

Yes, that part will do what you need. It is limited to 300W at 240V or 150W at 120V.
