FLOW METER 

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 

Table 1 

TOOLS REQUIRED (NOT INCLUDED) 

  See LP-204 (Versa Hydro Solar Supplement) for a list of tools and materials required in solar installations 

STEP 1: INSTALLATION OF THE SENSORS 

1.  Remove cover from tank sensor opening to expose the stud (Tt). Remove the existing clip and nut. See Figure 1. 

2.  Attach the tank sensor (grey wire) provided in this kit to the stud using the existing clip and nut. See Figure 2. 

3.  Use a drill with ¼” bit to drill a hole in the center of the tank sensor cover. 

4.  Feed grey tank sensor wire through the hole in the center of the tank sensor cover.  

5.  Reinstall tank sensor cover. See Figure 3. 

 

   

    

 

Figure 1 - Tank Sensor Mounting Stud 

 Figure 2 – Installed Tank Sensor               Figure 3 – Wire Fed through Sensor Cover 

6.  Feed wires from tank sensor through the knockout in the lower left of the electronics cabinet. See Figure 4. 

7.  Feed the tank sensor wires through the mounting clip. See Figure 5. 

8.  Attach tank sensor wires to the four position terminal block on the electronics panel at the Tt terminals. See Figure 6. 

NOTE:

 Reverse polarity is not a concern with the sensor wires.
