43__, AV23-43__ & AZ23-43__. The units are identical except for the sensor technology and optional Strobe Alert. User’s Responsibility for Safety: Flowline manufactures a wide range of liquid level sensors, controllers and mounting systems. It is the user’s responsibility to select components that are appropriate for the application, install them properly, perform tests of the installed system, and maintain all components.
Such backup systems should use different sensor technologies where possible. While this manual offers some examples and suggestions to help explain the operation of FLOWLINE products, such examples are for information only and are not intended as a complete guide to installing any specific system.
Getting Started Step Five FEATURES OF CONTROL (LATCH ON): The Smart Trak™ with compact relay controller package is designed to receive signals from two liquid sensors. It turns its internal relay ON or OFF (as set by the invert switch) in response to the presence of liquid on both sensors, and changes the relay status back again when both sensors are dry.

Series only) to the lower pair. Note the polarity: (+) is a 13.5 VDC, 27 mA power supply (to be connected to the red wire of a Flowline sensor), and (-) is the return path from the sensor (to be connected to the black wire of a Flowline sensor).
Electrical Step Five VAC POWER INPUT WIRING: Observe the labeling on the controller. Note: Polarity does not matter with the AC input terminal. RELAY INPUT WIRING: The relay is a single pole, double throw type rated at 250 Volts AC, 16 Amps. The terminals Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC) will be used in different applications.
Electrical (continued) Step Five AUTOMATIC FILL: This system consists of a tank with a high and low level sensor, and a pump or valve that is operated by the controller. Proper fail-safe design for this system is to stop filling if power is lost. Therefore, we connect the pump/valve to the NO side of the relay.
Electrical (continued) Step Five CHANGING FROM 120 TO 240 VAC: 1. Remove the two screws from the top of the printed circuit board (PCB) and gently slide the PCB from the housing. Use caution when removing the PCB. 2. Located jumpers JWA, JWB and JWC on the PCB. 3.
Step Six ABOUT SMART TRAK™: Flowline’s Smart Trak™ with Compact Relay Controller Assembly is an adjustable mounting system for installing two level sensors vertically within a tank. Mounted through a single point at the top of the tank, both sensors can be adjusted in the field. The compact relay controller features a 120/240 VAC latched controller with a 250 VAC, 10A SPDT relay contract.
Assembly of Smart-Trak™ Step Six SENSOR LOCATION: Smart Trak™ is shipped with a specific length of the track and two sensors attached. The three values at the end of the part number are assigned to provide the length of the track (A-Dimension), the activation location of the bottom sensor (B-Dimension) and the activation location for the top sensor (C-Dimension).
Assembly of Smart-Trak™ Step Six Smart Trak™ Assembly Drawing (Side View) Inventory: Inventory: One Smart Trak™ kit (LM10-1__1) includes the following parts: 1 x Seal Plug 1 x Top compression fitting 1 x Wire gasket 1 x Thrust Plate 1 x Locking pin 1 x 2"...
Installation (continued) Step Seven SENSOR CAR AND BAYONET ADAPTER: The sensor car assembly is the heart of the Smart Trak™ system. It slides in the grooves of the track, and is locked into position by a plastic bolt and screw. The bayonet to 3/4" NPT adapter has a female 3/4" NPT fitting on one end where the sensor (not included) will screw in, and a bayonet fitting on the other end that attaches it onto the sensor car with a slight turn, with an O-ring in-between to provide tension for the push-and-turn connection.
Smart Trak™ may be installed thru the top wall of any tank or flange, using a standard 2" NPT tank adapter or blind flange. If tank top is not available, Flowline's side mount bracket, LM50- 1001, enables Smart Trak™...
Maintenance Step Nine GENERAL: The Smart Trak™ with Compact Junction Box requires no periodic maintenance except cleaning as required. It is the responsibility of the user to determine the appropriate maintenance schedule, based on the specific characteristics of the application liquids. CLEANING PROCEDURE: 1.
Maintenance Step Nine TROUBLESHOOTING: PROBLEM SOLUTION Relay switches only from Latch is turned OFF. Flip the latch switch to turn ON. one input. If Latch is ON, then check the input LEDs to make sure they are switching ON and OFF as the level changes. If the LEDs do not turn ON and OFF, the either the sensor is not correctly wired or the sensor is not working.
