FT7000, RACK MONITOR MANUAL 11033PA-ATEX
Product Overview
Dixon prides itself in the quality and reliability of their products. Their mechanical and electronic
equipment is designed to withstand the harsh environments that tankers are exposed to. Products are
developed with safety, reliability, usability, and customer satisfaction as our primary focus.
Our overfill prevention equipment has been in use in the field since 2000 and continues to set the
standard for reliability in the tanker industry. The FT7000 rack monitor is the missing piece to a full
Dixon overfill prevention system. With Dixon products end-to-end, racks and haulers can operate with
less downtime and greater confidence in the reliability of their rack.
Compatibility
The FT7000 is compatible with overfill sensors and systems designed to meet the API 1004 and/or
EN13922 standards. Most industry standard equipment will fall under one or both standards. The
monitor may also work with products not explicitly designed to either standard, if their operation is
similar.
While idle, the FT7000 will continually check for both 2W and 5W trailers. Once a trailer is attached, the
monitor will automatically detect what type of sensors are outfitted on the trailer, then switch to the
appropriate mode of operation.
