Installation Instructions
True reading
The indicator matches the level exactly. What you see is what you have. Graduations can be marked on or beside the guide tube for accurate measurement.
Visibility
300' plus, day or night, thanks to the reflective red band.
Tank Type
Concrete, fiberglass, plastic, timber, corrugated steel, steel panels, round, oval, or square, Liquidator 2 will fit them all. Tank Sizes Liquidator 2, as supplied, is suitable for tanks up to 10’ high, any diameter. Longer cords can be supplied as an option enabling Liquidator 2 to be fitted to taller tanks up to 30’ high.
Chemicals
The only part in contact with the liquid is the polyethylene float. Hence Liquidator 2 is compatible with a wide range of liquids: fertilizer, waste water, molasses, acids, wine, olive oil, chemicals, oils, etc.. And of course, plain water.
Along with the above features, which it has in common with the standard Liquidator, Liquidator 2 has these additional features as well:
Separate Pulley Housings
Liquidator 2 is supplied as a compact assembly, ready to mount on the tank roof close to the edge. But the the pulley housings can easily be separated and joined by a horizontal length of pipe. This allows the float to be located well away from the edge, or high up on the apex of the tank roof, if desired.
Adaptable to Roof Shapes
Steep roofs up to 45* can easily be accommodated, thanks to the pivoted pulley housing. And the base of the pulley housing can be readily shaped to match roofs with ribs or bulges that are common to plastic tanks nowadays.
Guide Pipe
As the name implies, Liquidator 2 is designed to suit 2” round pipe which is a common size worldwide, readily available from hardware stores and plumbing supplies in either plastic or thin wall metal. Square tubes too, either 2” square thin wall galvanized or aluminum, or the slightly smaller 50 mm square tube
Simple Installation
In each case, mounting can usually be carried out using simple tools. Small holes only need to be drilled in the tank roof. (The only part inside the tank is the float which can be passed through the manhole).
Insect Proof
All moving parts are fully enclosed, and the only point of entry is where the indicator cord emerges. But, tucked up underneath the pulley housing, the cord passes through a close fitting floating grommet, making bit impossible for insects to enter.
Weatherproof
For the same reasons Liquidator 2 is dust and weatherproof too. To be completely sure, silicone rubber should be used at the time of installation to eliminate any gaps so that the gauge is fully sealed against the elements - rain, hail, or snow.
Options
A number of optional extras are available:
• Longer cords (for tanks up to 30' high)
• Stainless steel wire •Brass pulleys
• Mounting bracket for open top tanks
