Assembling Floats onto Probe Shaft
All sizes of the Product and Water/Density Floats and the Boot are assembled on the probe shaft in the exact
sequence and orientation shown in Figure 4.
IMPORTANT! Failure to push the boot as far as possible onto the probe shaft could cause the boot and float(s) to
fall into the tank. The boot must be pushed on until it “locks” on the probe shaft.
Handle the probe carefully. Striking or dropping the probe will result in loss of calibration and could cause
permanent damage.

Make a record of the float size and Density Code (see Figure 4) for each probe (you can record float data in
Table 3). This information will be needed during console configuration.
NOTE: If the Density Code is not available or is not entered into the console during configuration, the density
measured accuracy will default to
±
2 kg/m
