How reliable is it?
Ultra-reliable! There are no moving parts and no electronics, so it will last for 20+ years. That's why it has a 10-year warranty! No other liquid level sensor comes close.
What control devices can use it?
Anything that measures conductivity. The control device should apply a low AC voltage (10-12 volts recommended) to each sensor and measure conductivity to ground:
-
-
For smaller sumps and storm water applications with 2 pumps where no monitoring is required - try the MTDPC pump controller.
-
For 1 and 2 pump applications with no alternation - use the MTIC.
-
For the simplest control - try the MTR Family of relays.

What skills are needed to install a Probe?
Probe installation is easy! Simply lower the Probe into the well suspended by its own cable using the mounting kit supplied. Install near the inflow, not in the quietest part of the well.
How do I calibrate it?
No calibration is required. No waiting for the well to empty and fill. You choose the start, stop and alarm points and you can see where they are.
