4.1 Installation
Be sure to install the water alarm with the red mark at the
same height of the bottom edge of the oil tank (also see draw-
ing below).
WW3 and WW10 have a G1¼ connection for the bottom con-
nection on the tank and a G3/4 connection for the top connec-
tion on the tank. With the WW6, the connections are G3/4 for
the bottom and G1/2 for the top tank connection.
Be sure the attached pipe is tight and ensure a short pipe con-
necting route. Long routes allow more water to collect before
the alarm is triggered.
We recommend installing the water alarm to your tank ac-
cording to the following installation example and using the
corresponding shut-off valve.
