Probe Installation

11

CAUTION!

 Handle probes carefully. Striking or dropping the probe will result in loss of calibration and could 

cause permanent damage.

Riser cap with cord grip
bushing and nut

Concrete slab or packed 
earth per NFPA 80

Riser pipe: 2-, 3-, or 4'' API schedule 40 
depending on probe type (To prevent 
erroneous probe readings, install probe 
riser a minimum of 24'' from the submersible 
pump.)

Cord grip seals 

Weatherproof junction box with 1/2" NPT 
threads (16 cubic inch minimum)

14'' min. dia. manhole

Seal-off, epoxy seal per NFPA spec

Mag Probe
(rests on bottom)

Tank

A = 14" minimum for global mag 
plus/mag plus probes. When 
installing a probe longer than the 
the tank diameter, increase this 
minimum dimension to compensate.  
(Example: a 7'-6'' diameter tank will 
use an 8' probe, in which case you 
must add 6" to minimum riser length 
'A', i.e., 20").

probes\pbinstcen.eps

1/2" Rigid conduit (to Console)

Probe cable

Split-Ring Collar 
(P/N 576008-617) 
required if probe 
enters the riser.
