Note this item is for non-hazardous locations. if this is for Hazardous Locations please see our page for our Intrinsically Safe tank alarm.
OPERATION
When there is a high liquid level condition, the buzzer sounds and the beacon LED flashes. Press the button to silence the buzzer, and the LED continues to flash as a reminder. This is the default mode although there are other behaviors available. The 101 dB buzzer has a unique warbling sound is very arresting so it will be heard at long distances.
Different behaviors are field-selectable using DIP switches on the circuit board. Choose from:
- 30-minute snooze alarm, (on/off)
- tank filling mode (where it shuts off LED and buzzer until the next fill-up)
- auto/manual reset after level corrected
