This controller is for aquarists who run a protein skimmer with a transparent collection cup and want protection against overflow. It monitors the dirt level in the cup and cuts power to the skimmer before waste can spill into the tank, so the owner does not have to check the cup constantly.
Why it matters
- An optical sensor sits on the outside of the cup and a viewer sits on the inside. Both are fitted with magnets, so they attach to the cup without tools.
- When the foam reaches the level of the viewer, the skimmer is switched off immediately. When the level drops, it restarts automatically.
- Problems and cup status are shown by blinking green, yellow and red LEDs.
- A touch switch allows manual on and off control of the socket.

What it works with
The sensor and magnet work only with colourless, transparent materials, so the skimmer cup must be transparent to read the foam level. The unit is designed for protein skimmers connected through its socket. The 600 W rating and the 6 mm maximum wall thickness determine which skimmers and cups it can be used with.

Frequently asked questions
The maximum cup wall thickness is 6 mm. The outer eye is 22 mm in diameter and 15 mm high, and the inner viewer has the same dimensions.
No. The sensor and magnets are designed only for colorless, transparent materials, so the cup must be clear for the optical eye to read the dirt level.
When the dirt level reaches the viewer inside the cup, the skimmer switches off immediately. It starts working again automatically once the foam level drops below the sensor.
The unit signals issues and cup status with flashing LEDs in green, yellow and red. A touch switch also lets you turn the socket power on or off manually.
The cable is 2.5 m long, the rated power is 600 W, and the input voltage is 220-240 V. The skimmer pump is plugged into the socket on the unit.
