PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONS:
These instructions cover the following FloTech products:
FT151RL 2 Wire Optic ROM LINK Replacement Sensor
FT152RL 2 Wire Optic ROM LINK Replacement Retain Sensor
10688 Gender Adapter
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
The FT151RL, FT151RL-12 and FT152RL are replacement sensors for the Civacon ROM
link and compatible with 1554-007, -012, -018 Civacon overfill sensors and 1000RL
Civacon retain sensors. These instructions provide a picture overview of additional steps to
properly install the FT151RL series and FT152RL sensors into a ROM LINK harness.
Installation Steps:
Refer to GENDER ADAPTER picture, page 3
1) Remove the Civacon sensor and housing. You will not use any of the original
Civacon sensor components. Leave the Civacon harness in place if in good
condition.
2) Remove sensor cap and probe from housing. Insert Cable gland into the sensor
housing. Use some pipe sealant to insure a water-tight connection.
3) Cut FT151P sensor to length so that sensor length is set to 60 gallons or 3% of tank
capacity compartment.

4) Insert the FT151P plug through the cable gland. Push plug from inside housing
through to the outside. The plug goes through the cable gland easiest if the latch is
oriented down toward the manhole lid. Pass the plug through metal ring and nut
as shown. Spread the rubber grommet as shown and wrap it around the sensor
wire.
5) Insert the sensor into the sensor housing. Adjust the sensor to the correct depth to
comply with the 60 gallon or 3% outage requirements per compartment. Tighten
the side screw. Be sure the BLACK thread protector is still in the sensor tube. Do
not tighten the cable gland at this time.
6) Mount the sensor housing into the manhole cover.
7) Connect the FloTech Gender Adapter to the Civacon harness pig tail for the
compartment this sensor is replacing. Use a little dielectric grease or Vaseline in
the connector to help repel moisture. Next connect the sensor pig tail connector
into the open end connector of the Gender Adapter. See picture below.
8) Excess FT151P cable can be coiled into the sensor housing. The housing will
hold up to one foot of cable. This will help store excess cable and give the wiring
a cleaner look.

9) Next use the provided tie wraps to fasten the pigtail to the main harness as shown
in the photo below. These cable ties will ensure the connection is not accidentally
pulled apart or damaged.

the corresponding RED sensor LED to light and the permit LED to go out.
