It willshut off when the tank is 100% full. In case the level sensor isout of calibration or not working properly, there is a high-levelsafety limit to prevent the tank from overfilling. If the highlimit is met at a preset value of 102% full the process will shutdown and a strobe light will turn on. Indicator lights areactivated when the tank level reaches 50%, 75% and 100% full asshown in the diagram of the tank in Figure 1. There is a slightdead band to prevent flickering lights when tank levels varyslightly due to filling or splashing.
