HYDROS Skimmer Sensor
The HYDROS Skimmer Sensor is a specialized water level sensor for the Sense Port that helps prevent protein skimmers from overflowing onto the floor or back into a sump. It’s a crucial component for maintaining the proper functioning of a protein skimmer. The device plugs into any Sense Port on a HYDROS device and requires no additional power source.
The HYDROS Skimmer Sensor contains an optical eye explicitly designed for protein skimmer collection cups.

HYDROS Skimmer Sensor
The HYDROS Skimmer Sensor is an essential tool that prevents your protein skimmer from overflowing and causing a mess. It’s easy to use: simply place the sensor inside the collection cup of your protein skimmer, up to ¼” thick, and attach the magnetic coupling on the outside to keep it secure. When the waste level in the collection cup reaches the sensor, it will signal HYDROS to turn off the protein skimmer, avoiding any overflow. This feature only works if your protein skimmer is connected to a HYDROS power source, such as the four-outlet power strip or Smart Plug. The HYDROS Skimmer Sensor is compatible with any HYDROS Sense Port and doesn’t require additional power.
Unlike standard water level sensors, the HYDROS Skimmer Sensor’s optical eye is specially designed for use inside the collection cup of a protein skimmer and is purpose-built for this important task. It’s a compact device, measuring just over half an inch thick and with a magnet side only ¼” thick. The magnetic coupling ensures the sensor stays securely in place, and installation is simple thanks to the cord being on the magnet side. No need to purchase a new lid for your skimmer or modify the collection cup. The sensor contains no moving parts, so you can rely on it to work flawlessly.
The HYDROS Skimmer Sensor is a reliable accessory made by AutoAqua in Taiwan, and is officially endorsed by HYDROS. AutoAqua is a prominent name in the aquarium automation industry, and is well-known for producing the Smart ATO Micro. CoralVue, a trusted brand, has conducted thorough testing on the Skimmer Sensor to ensure that it works seamlessly with the HYDROS platform. The product development team at CoralVue has engineered the sensor to connect with any HYDROS Sense Port using an aviation-style plug, ensuring safe operation. The sensor does not require an additional power source to function. With the HYDROS Skimmer Sensor, you can keep the skimmate in the cup and out of the sump.
