For 250B the flow direc- tion arrow on the top of the sensor housing should point downstream with the impeller blades pointing upstream. 8) Carefully push the shaft through the sleeve and impeller, taking care not to damage bearings. Make sure that the shaft is inserted far enough so that it clears the sleeve on each side of the impeller hous- ing.

  • Page 10: Troubleshooting

    Troubleshooting If the voltage at the sensor input is less than 7.0 VDC in a no flow situation, disconnect the sensor from the barrier strip and measure the voltage at the sensor input terminals of the barrier strip again. It should be between 8.0 VDC and 20.0 VDC. If the voltage at the sensor input is still below 7.0 VDC or 3.0 VDC, the problem may be with the monitor.
