TANK ALERT® AB ALARM SYSTEM

Easy-to-install liquid level alarm system with auto-reset and battery backup features for indoor use.
This alarm system monitors liquid levels in lift pump chambers, sump pump basins, holding tanks, sewage, agricultural, and other water applications. The Tank Alert® AB alarm system can serve as a high or low level alarm depending on the float switch model used. The alarm horn sounds when a potentially threatening liquid level condition occurs. The horn can be silenced, but the alarm light remains on until the condition is remedied. Once the condition is cleared, the alarm will automatically reset. A green “Power On” light indicates 120 VAC primary power to the alarm. Low battery chirp feature indicates when battery should be replaced.
