Series 2000 Water & Foam Level Monitor
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. My Series 2000 sensor is too long. Can I cut it down?
A. No, each Series 2000 complete unit consists of a custom sized sensor and
a water or foam display module that is calibrated for an individual tank. If a sensor
length is incorrect, it must be replaced and the display module must be returned
for recalibration. Please call us at our toll free # and a customer
service representative will assist you.
Q. The full light does not come on when the tank is filled.
A. In most cases the unit may just need to be fine tuned. Untighten the liquid
tight fitting on the rear of the display module and remove the four fasteners. Slide the
cover off slowly and locate the potentiometer labeled "full". Turn the power on
to the unit and using a small regular style screwdriver (a jewelers screwdriver
works well) turn the potentiometer counter clockwise until the full light comes
on. DO NOT TURN THE POTENTIOMETER MORE THAN NECESSARY, AS
THIS WILL CAUSE THE UNIT TO FUNCTION INCORRECTLY.
Q. Can I add additional control cables?
A. Yes, each Series 2000 complete unit is supplied with a 15 foot control cable.
Additional control cables may be added without effecting the units calibration
MC stocks various length control cables.
Q. Upon installing my unit I have excess cable, what should be done with the excess?
A. Excess cable should be re-routed around the truck. DO NOT COIL OR BUNDLE
THE CABLE.
Q. Can I test the unit before I install it into the tank?
A. Yes. The sensor would need to be placed in a water filled container, that is
about the same in length as the sensor. Assemble the display module to the sensor
and apply power and ground. As the sensor is dipped into the water filled
container each of the lights will illuminate.
Q. My refill light is not flashing (Quint & Mark 5 only).
A. Check that you are using a #256 flashing bulb in working order
Q. When I press the test switch on my Mark 5 display module I do not get a level
reading.
A. Check that the red wire is connected forward of the master switch. The red
wire shoud have a constant 12 volts from the battery.
