Innovative Indoor/Outdoor Alarm System
This alarm system monitors liquid levels in lift pump chambers, sump pump basins, holding tanks, sewage, agricultural, and other water applications. The CSION® 3R indoor/outdoor alarm can serve as a high or low level alarm depending on the float switch model used. This easy to install alarm features an innovative, sleek 2-color molded enclosure which integrates the red LED translucent beacon. Optional yellow LED models available.
The alarm sounds and the upper housing half illuminates when a potentially threatening liquid level condition occurs. The audible alarm can be silenced by pressing the Test/Silence button, but the alarm light will remain on until the condition is remedied. Once the condition is cleared, the alarm will automatically reset. A green “Power On” light indicates power to the alarm panel.
