How the SJE Rhombus Tank Alert® AB Works
This tank alert alarm system uses a float switch to monitor liquid levels and trigger alerts when conditions become unsafe:
Alarm condition is triggered when the float switch (sensor) detects high or low liquid levels
The red alarm light illuminates, and the buzzer sounds continuously to signal an issue
The alarm remains active until the liquid level returns to a safe range
The test/silence button can mute the buzzer, while the alarm light stays on to indicate the condition
Once the sensor deactivates, the system automatically resets for the next alarm cycle
This liquid level alarm system provides continuous monitoring and reliable protection for sump, septic, and wastewater applications.
