I will be wiring this thing up next weekend(hopefully). The safeinject sends out a 12v signal when it detects flow rate drops below a preset point. I have a toggle switch override on the pump so i can simulate a "low flow" event and see how long it takes for the safeinject to react and then the GA to react on top of that and pop the valve.

this should be fun

I think that completes the full safety circle at that point. aaaand next month my motor will just blow for no reason whatsoever.

Which version do you have of the SafeInjection? I was under the impression it triggered a ground instead of a 12V. With a 12V trigger it will definitely set off the GA.

If it has just a ground trigger, can't you put a relay in and convert it to a 12v trigger?

Can anyone outline how to wire a relay to take a +0.5V trigger and convert it into a +12V signal the GA can handle?

I will try and do a simple diagram.

You want a single pole, single throw relay.
