Re: John's RCR build

'Ello all

Purchased a couple of SVA compliant level sensors and opened up clearance holes in two of the screw down caps atop the beautiful CNC reservoirs to enable them to fit. I then broke the level sensors apart, removing the supplied cap (not required) and float tube from the main assembly Next fitted rubber washers(fabricated from the CNC supplied rubber expansion bellows) and a 1mm Nylon spacing washers (thickness is critical) above the float tube. When the float tube is snapped back in place it causes a good leak proof interference fit between CNC cap. top rubber sealing washer (supplied with the level sensor), fabricated rubber washer and nylon washer. The whole assembley can be rotated to position and then locked down by the cap further ensuring leak free job.

Certainly looks a whole lot better than the placky ones and as Sandy said goes rather better with the RCR

Fran thanks for the info

Onwards and upwards
