Optic Rack Monitor Model 8130 for Bottom and Top Loading

Brand: Civacon Corporate
Well-suited for bottom-loading applications with vehicles outfitted with Optic sensors, and also suited for overfill protection while top-loading railcars or tank trucks.

Generates a unique, pulsed - and intrinsically safe - electrical signal that is transmitted to the sensors via a coiled cord and optic-format plug.

When sensors on the transport are dry a signal is returned to the monitor.

If the signal meets pre-determined characteristics the monitor goes to a “permissive” state, which changes the status light on the front of the 8100 Series Optic Rack Monitor from red: “non-permissive” to green: “permissive”.

If the sensor becomes wet, the relay is opened and the status light changes from green to red: non-permissive, shutting down the loading process.

The Model 8130 Optic Monitor with Ground Verification includes displayed status of the optic sensor: “permissive” or “non-permissive”, and mode of operation.

If the bypass mode is activated the green and red status lights will flash alternately.

If the monitor does not receive a proper ground verification signal, the red status light will flash repeatedly, shutting down the loading process.

Ground verification cannot be bypassed.
