Wiring Instructions - FloTech FT300 Manuel D'instructions

DIAGRAM 1

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS:

When wiring the sockets to an onboard monitor it is highly recommended using FloTech
FT401 jacketed 5-conductor cable when wiring a new system. FloTech cable is designed to
be oil, UV, and abrasion resistant. We incorporate a noble tin plated stranded copper wire
which resists corrosion. These features will provide years of reliable service.
After all sensors are mounted in each compartment, align the conduit openings so they face
the roll over rail. Thread in cable glands and pull a length of cable through the conduit
openings between each sensor. Cut to length leaving approximately 8 inches extra length
exiting the top of each probe holder.
All socket cables must enter or leave through one of the ½ NPT openings. Use FloTech
FT402 ½ NPT cable glands to ensure a water tight seal. Unused conduit openings must have
a ½ NPT pipe plug installed. Use pipe dope on all ½ NPT threads to ensure a water tight seal.
Wire the sockets according to diagram 2 below. Double check your wiring connection when
complete. NOTE: It is highly recommended to use a small amount of Silicone RTV sealant
in each crimp connection. Fill the FloTech butt end crimps with Silicone RTV sealant prior
to inserting the wires then crimp. This will provide a watertight and vibration resistant
connection.
When wiring is complete, replace each sensor cap and o-ring. CAUTION: Do not pinch a
sensor wire when installing the cap.
