It looks nutty, but it's just a dual version of the simple PVC overflow. If you look at the drawing it shows to simple overflows connected in the center. I like the idea because if one were to get clogged the other one still functions. It also folds well and compact.. but shug.. thats not a big deal

I agree that it is just two separate intake tube, but you still run the risk of the downtube clogging or some thing happening and then you have flooding. I would rather just have two separate overflows myself.
ok will this work? the pipe goin into the tank will go nearly to the bottom but i need a diffrent 90. the u outside is lower then the pick up.
Just looking at it, it looks as though it will fail if you have a power outage. You need a design that will maintain a siphon if a power failure occurs.
The link I put up shows the intakes reversed from yours. The water level is governed by the last part of the "u". Hmm.. lemme see if I can provide a better description.. I'll post again in a few minutes.

on the left is to the sump and on the right the pipe will be much longer. i got the design on here.
