6. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps for proper installation of the water level alarm sensor.

  1. Choose a Location: Select a suitable wall-mount location for the main control unit, ensuring it is protected from direct water exposure and within reach of a power outlet.
  2. Mount the Unit: Use appropriate screws to securely fasten the main control unit to the wall via its integrated mounting ears.
  3. Connect the Probe: Connect the water level probe wires to the designated terminals on the control unit. Ensure correct polarity if specified (refer to internal wiring diagram if available, or follow color coding).
  4. Position the Probe: Place the stainless steel probe at the desired water level detection point within the tank or reservoir. The probe should be submerged to the level where you want the alarm to trigger. Ensure the probe is securely fixed and will not move.
  5. Connect Power: Plug the power cable into the main control unit and then into a standard AC 220V power outlet.
  6. Initial Test: Perform an initial test by manually raising or lowering the water level (or simulating it) to verify the alarm triggers correctly.

7. Operating Instructions

  1. Power On: Flip the red power switch to the 'ON' position. The unit will power up.
  2. Monitoring: The sensor will continuously monitor the water level at the probe's position.
  3. Alarm Trigger: If the water level reaches the set threshold (either too low or too high, depending on probe configuration), the red alarm light will activate, and an audible alarm will sound.
  4. Adjusting Alarm Volume: The alarm volume can be adjusted between 90-105 dB. Refer to the device's internal settings or a dedicated knob/switch if present (not explicitly detailed in provided data, assume internal adjustment or fixed range).
  5. Mute Alarm: To silence the audible alarm after it has been triggered, press the green mute button on the control unit. The alarm light may remain active until the water level returns to a safe range.
  6. Power Off: To turn off the unit, flip the red power switch to the 'OFF' position.

8. Maintenance

  • Regular Cleaning: Periodically inspect and clean the stainless steel probe to prevent buildup of debris or mineral deposits, which could affect its accuracy. Use a soft cloth and mild detergent if necessary.
  • Probe Inspection: Check the probe and its wiring for any signs of damage, corrosion, or wear. Replace if necessary.
  • Unit Inspection: Ensure the main control unit is free from dust and moisture. Keep ventilation openings clear.
  • Power Disconnection: Always disconnect the power supply before performing any cleaning or maintenance tasks.

9. Troubleshooting

ProblemPossible CauseSolution
Device does not power on.No power supply; power switch off; faulty power cable.Check power outlet; ensure power switch is ON; inspect power cable for damage.
Alarm does not trigger at expected level.Probe incorrectly positioned; probe dirty; faulty probe connection.Adjust probe position; clean probe; check probe wiring connections.
Alarm triggers continuously or falsely.Probe short-circuited or damaged; electrical interference.Inspect probe and wiring for damage; ensure proper grounding; relocate away from strong electrical fields.
Alarm sound is too quiet or too loud.Alarm volume setting needs adjustment.Adjust the alarm volume (if adjustable via external control, otherwise it's within the specified range).
