Page 3: Introduction
1.1 Overview The SeeLeveL 808-P2 Display is a gauge mounted on trucks, providing real-time liquid level readings from the sender bar. When utilized with the 810-TX sender bar, it additionally monitors the temperature inside the tank. It facilitates safe loading with controls for a customizable warning alarm, and emergency overfill shutdown protection. It can be used alone, or in conjunction with Garnet’s SpillStop or MultiRack systems. Figure 1.1.2a 808-P2 (Rev M) Display 1.2 Features and Benefits • Works with the 810-X or 810-TX sender bar (installed within the tank). -
Page 4: Quick Guide
2.0 QUICK GUIDE 2.1 Operation The sender bar is installed vertically inside the tank. As the liquid level changes, the float will move up and down the sender bar. Magnets within the float allow the sender to accurately measure the position of the float, and translate that into the liquid level. Embedded temperature sensors also measure the liquid temperature. The liquid level and temperature are continuously transmitted to the SeeLeveL gauge through the fiber optic cable. The gauge displays the volume of liquid within the tank based on this reading. The temperature of the liquid can be viewed by pressing the button on the side of the display (810-TX only). If the button is held down for 2 seconds, the battery status of the sender bar is displayed. Every tank shape is different, and the display can be set to common volumetric units such as gallons, cubic meters, or barrels. To calibrate the SeeLeveL for your tank, please see the 817-USB SeeLeveL Truck Gauge Programmer documentation. -

Figure 3.2.2b Float Support Fabrication 3.2.3 Cutting the Bar NOTE: The sender bar needs to be cut to length for specific trailers. Contact a sales or service rep for cut options. 3.2.4 Sender Bar Installation 1. Guide the sender bar through the NPT collar. Ensure the compression fitting is on the bar, then through the float anchor support until it hits the bottom of the tank. 2. Raise the bar 2” up from the bottom of the tank to accommodate tank flex that could mechanically interfere with the bottom of the bar. (See Figure 3.2.4a) Figure 3.2.4a Install Sender Bar CAUTION: Installing the bar less than 2”... - Page 9 Select a location for the display. It should be easy to see and out of direct road spray and protected from driving rain. The display enclosure should be mounted using the mounting flange holes. If the holes are not pre-drilled in the display enclosure, drill holes into the enclosure close enough to the base to avoid contacting the lid flange (See Figure 3.3.4b).

3.3.5 Connect the Airline Hose 1. At the lowest point in the airline, insert a T-fitting with approximately two feet of 1/4” airline hanging down to create a drain/vent for any moisture that may enter or build-up in the system. 2. If a T-fitting is not practical, install a fitting into the bottom of the display enclosure and route the 2 feet of 1/4” airline hose from there. (See Figure 3.3.5a) Figure 3.3.5a Airline Hose Options 808-P2 SeeLeveL Special | V13.0... -

3.4 Install Fiber Optic Cable 3.4.1 Preparation of Fiber Optic Cable 1. Use a piece of 1/4” airline hose to protect the black fiber. With the airline hose straight, insert and feed the fiber optic cable through the hose, leaving 12“ extra at each end (See Figure 3.4.1a) CAUTION: Maintain the largest possible radius within the enclosure. Bends should never exceed 90°; sharp bends or kinks will reduce the amount of signal passed. Figure 3.4.1a Fiber Optic Cable Inserted Through Airline Hose 3.4.2 Connect the Fiber to Display Enclosure 1. -

3.4.5 Install Airline on the Truck 1. Route the 1/4” airline from the sender bar head to the display. Avoid bends tighter than 90° and do not kink. Airline can be routed either to the side of the tank to the display (See Figure 3.4.5a) (Option 1), or to the back of the tank, down and then to the display (Option 2). - Page 13 2. Move the float on the bar up and down to ensure proper functioning. (See Figure 3.5.6b) Figure 3.5.6b Verifying Bar Operation 3. Correct operation is confirmed when there is engagement every 1/3 of an inch for 810-X, or 1/4 of an inch for 810-TX, on the 817-USB Truck Gauge Programmer.

5.0 TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE 5.1 Diagnostic Flowchart Refer to a separate document called “808-P2 troubleshooting flow chart”. The flowchart can be used to perform basic troubleshooting on the SeeLeveL gauge system. Some steps may require the use of an 817-USB truck gauge programmer. More advanced testing is also covered in the 817-USB documentation. 5.2 FAQs 5.2.1 Why does my display read “No L”? no L = no Light condition. The display is working, but either the fiber is unable to send the signal from the bar or the bar is no longer sending the signal through the fiber. -
