Safiery Sensors and GX Tank 140 - User Manual

Safiery Ultrasonic Tank Sensor T his sensor permanently fixes under a water tank . It uses ultrasonic principles so therefore requires a sealed interface between the sensor and the tank shell. This sensor uses ultrasonic technology but is diffferent to "air based" ultrasonics which are less reliable. The ultrasonic signal travels through "solid" material to find an air interface. It is the same technology as used on pregnant women with "ultrasound" readings. Like that process, a gell is used when the sensor is positioned to ensure that it WILL WORK prior to fixing. The recessed groove captures excess glue when fixing. The install process requires just 12V power to be applied and the sensor held into position. The solid blue LED on the bottom of the sensor will illuminate with power and FLASH if the ultrasonic has found an air interface. The flashing confirms to the installer that the sensor will operate. It works exceedingly well with metal or propolyene tanks where there is no additional "skin" or potential air layer between the sensor and the tank. Excessive paint or rough surface will void operation. When operating successfully, the sensor flashes "blue" LED at the sensor itself. A gel couplant is included with the sensor.
