Manuel & Operating Instructions Sensor Models M1015 – Pro + Sensors INTENDED USE OF THE M1015 SENSOR IS TO MEASURE THE AMOUNT OF LIQUID PROPANE (AND OTHER LIQUIDS) INSIDE A PROPANE TANK MEETING THE SPECIFATIONS BELOW, UNDER THE CONDITIONS LISTED BELOW. THIS DEVICE IS INTENDED FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY.
WARNING USE OF THIS DEVICE IN A MANNER OTHER THAN STATED IN THIS MANUAL, MAY RESULT IN IMPAIRMENT OF THE DESIGNED SAFETY PROTECTION AND THUS AN UNSAFE CONDITION. WARNING EXPLOSION HAZARD-BATTERIES MUST ONLY BE CHANGED IN AN AREA FREE OF IGNITIBLE CONCENTRATIONS. WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF EXPLOSION DO NOT MIX OLD BATTERIES WITH USED BATTERIES, OR MIX BATTERIES FROM OTHER MANUFACTURERS.
FCC Statement This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
General Instructions & Warnings Only install this device as described below. No field assembly is required. The sync process to the app on your smart device, as described below, should occur in an area clearly out of any explosive atmosphere. Once device is synced to the smart device/app, the device is “in service” and operating normally. Device will then operate continually until battery is exhausted. There is no “Power Off” mode from that point forward.
Mopeka Pro + Instructions (APP USER/HOMEOWNER) Startup: 1. Remove 2 screws and lid. 2. Install 2 AAA batteries. Two AAA Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries are required. Note: Battery orientation is shown in the bottom of the sensor under each battery. Cellular: 3. Sensor will beep 2x when batteries are inserted. Wait for 3 beeps, to indicate successful cellular/cloud connection. First start up may take longer to achieve 3 beeps because of initial cellular provisioning. 4.
16. 17. 18. 19. 20. As sensor begins to read tank level, beeping will slow indicating good quality readings. Wait for 10-20 seconds to evaluate beeping (and thus installation position.) If beeping stops, reading quality is adequate and installation is complete. If beeping has not stopped, reposition sensor and reevaluate beeping.
Mopeka Pro + Instructions – FOR INSTALLER USING MOPEKA MONITORING SERVICE Startup: 1. Remove 2 screws and lid. 2. Install 2 AAA batteries. 2, AAA Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries are required. Note: Battery orientation is shown in the bottom of the sensor under each battery. Cellular: 3. Sensor will beep 2x when batteries are inserted. Wait for 3 beeps, to indicate successful cellular/cloud connection. First start up may take longer to achieve 3 beeps because of initial cellular provisioning. 4.
14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. Install sensor on tank bottom. See installation tips below. As sensor begins to read tank level, beeping will slow indicating good quality readings. Wait for 10-20 seconds to evaluate beeping (and thus installation position.) If beeping stops, reading quality is adequate and installation is complete. If beeping has not stopped, reposition sensor and reevaluate beeping.
Installation Tips: Residential Sensor, apply grease to pad shown. Note also that if sensor is repositioned several times, it may be necessary to reapply grease, to ensure good coverage of the round pad. Bulk Storage Tank Sensor, apply grease to circular area shown. For vertical tanks, the sensor should be installed in the center, bottom of tank as shown. Place blocks, if needed, under tank to allow adequate clearance for sensor. Sensor should not contact the ground.
BOTTOM VIEW OF VERTICAL TANK For horizontal tanks, install sensor on bottom centerline of tank. Sensor should be level to work properly. Sensor may be installed anywhere along bottom centerline of tank (as indicated by blue arrows below). Older tanks may have a buildup of sludge inside the bottom of tank that can affect sensor performance. Relocating the sensor along the bottom centerline will usually resolve this issue, as there is typically a spot where tank filling will keep one area clear of sludge.
