The Skimmer Guardian uses an optical sensor with a magnetic mount. The magnetically coupled sensor makes installation and adjustment to the desired level in the collection cup easy. The sensor is mounted externally, so no holes are required in the collection cup for installation.
If the level in the cup reaches the sensor, the Skimmer Guardian will shut off the skimmer pump immediately to prevent the cup from overflowing. A built-in automatic time delay also prevents false alarms due to power outages. Once the skimmer cup has been drained, the Skimmer Guardian will restart the pump.
