Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How to install a tank overfill alert gauge?
A.
- Connect rods together with a connector.
- Press on the top of the connector to disassemble.
- Make sure that the connection is secure, lower into the monitoring space and then thread in the bushing.
Q. When a leak detection gauge fails?
A.
- The calibration assembly located on the tank's outside may damage and become illegible or worn.
- The connecting rods can separate or sustain damage as they expand into the tank.
- The float that rests at the gauge's base may fall off or become product-saturated (leak).
Q. How to maintain this Krueger K-1.5-72 leak detection gauge?
A.
- Once a month: Check the calibration is visible, legible and undamaged on the top of the unit once a month. (Instead of needing to replace the gauge entirely, these top components are simply replaced).
- Once every six months: Carefully remove the device from the tank after unthreading it. From the red indication down to the float, make sure that all the rods are joined together as a single unit. Additionally, check the float for leaks or damage. Manually raising the float arm from empty to full will check that everything is in working order and that the red indication travels freely up and down with the movement of the float rod.
