    I have an autopilot system. Would it be feasible to move the sensor section between the filter and heater. Replace the sensor section with a piece of pipe and leave the cell after the heater. Just a thought.
    You would have to be carefull not to turn off or reduce the flow thru the cell. Since the flow sensor would not be at the cell.

    20 degree split on any heater, regardless of heat exchanger size, means insufficient flow through the heater. This can lead to premature damage. Other areas of concern if this is a heat pump is the evaporator coil. Any blockage around the coil will cause inefficiencies and higher temp splits.

    splitting the tri-sensor from the manifold....hmmm too risky. All you need is for the cell to be scaled and the tri-sensor to not detect this condition (blockage of flow) and you can have a read disaster. "Don't do it" is my 2 cents, besides, it voids warranty.
