III. Installation Electrical Wiring The standard digital glycol feeder controller has an internal regulated power supply that will operate in the range of approximately 100 to 250 VAC on the incoming wiring. Output relay(s) are protected with a replaceable fuse. Each relay’s output voltage will equal incoming line voltage. The Standard prewired units are supplied with a 8 foot, 16 AWG, 3 wire grounded, 120 VAC USA power cord for incoming power.

• If Yes, inspect end of level wand for debris or damage, replace if needed. (The float at bottom of the wand should have free movement, up and down. • If No, inspect wire for damage. If no damage visible inspect internal wiring. (See NO POWER TO UNIT, POWER PRESENT AT RECEPTACLE 1 thru 10 above) If no resolution is found, record Serial / Model numbers and call customer service LOW LEVEL ALARM STAYS ON Disconnect level wand connection and short across connectors with screw driver.
Manufacturer’s Product Warranty Advantage Controls warrants units of its manufacture to be free of defects in material or workmanship.
