    Model: 2852-IFA User Manual Rev: 2.2 Probe Installation The probe length is custom ordered to the vessel requirements. A minimum 50mm length is recommended. Longer probes will provide greater sensitivity to impending liquid changes. Probes top mounted into open tanks may require an inactive sheath to ensure the active probe portion is immersed in liquid at all times The PMC junction box should be mounted above the water surge level and in a protected area.

    Normal Normal Screen 3.3.1 Site Calibration A factory pre-configuration and basic set-up has been defaulted into the 2852-IFA but a field calibration is required after installation. Allow one hour warmup before proceeding to calibration. The unit can be set to alarm when a high dielectric liquid (High pF) changes to a low dielectric liquid (Low pF), such as water to oil, or when a low dielectric liquid changes to a high dielectric liquid such as oil to water.
