These "Electronic" Thermistor sensors will provide reliable operation when installed as
replacements to conventional "Green Tipped" Thermistor sensors. FloTech Thermo-Optic
sensors and electronic dummy provide high reliability, long life, and quick start up in cold
weather. "Civacon" is a registered trademarks of Civacon / Dover Corporation.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
FloTech model FT151 can be mounted in a 2"NPT female pipe coupling or through a 2 3/8"
hole. When mounting in a 2 3/8" hole the gasket and lock nut provided are used to retain the
probe holder in the tank shell or manhole. After the sensor is mounted remove the cap.
Loosen the probe clamp screw and adjust the probe to the correct level point. This is typically
3% of compartment volume. It is not recommended cutting the standard 7" sensor to a shorter
length. This will cause insufficient time to stop the flow of product within the load racks
reaction time.
IMPORTANT: The actual sensing point adjustment should be determined by the total
response time required to prevent a tank overfill condition. The FloTech sensor reaction time
is one half second. The loading rack will also have a reaction time. Once the probe is adjusted
to the proper height, tighten the clamp screw.
