The Warrick 3R4C0 4' Probe is a high-performance, 1/4" threaded electrode designed for precision conductive liquid level control in demanding industrial and commercial environments. Built from 316 stainless steel, this general-purpose rod offers superior corrosion resistance, making it an ideal choice for boiler feedwater systems, process washers, and storage tanks. This metallic rod is engineered to screw directly into Warrick Series 3E, 3F, 3G, or 3B fittings, extending vertically to establish a reliable electrical circuit upon contact with conductive media. Its 48-inch length allows for versatile deep-tank monitoring, though technicians can easily cut the probe in the field to match specific setpoint requirements. When integrating the 3R4C0 into your level control system, ensure the sensitivity of your conductivity relay matches the liquid's properties to prevent under-sensing issues. For high-temperature or high-pressure steam applications, the 316 SS construction ensures structural integrity where standard materials might fail. This probe is frequently utilized in sewage pump control, low water cut-off (LWCO) systems, and condensate return tanks. By utilizing stationary electrodes instead of floats, you eliminate mechanical failure points, significantly reducing maintenance frequency in turbulent or high-debris fluid environments. Key Benefits: 316 Stainless Steel Durability: Provides high-grade resistance to corrosive chemicals and high-temp boiler environments. Field-Adjustable Length: The 4-foot rod can be cut to precise specifications for custom tank depths. Universal 1/4" Threading: Seamlessly compatible with standard Warrick electrode fittings for fast, secure installations. Reliable Sensing: No moving parts prevents mechanical binding in heavy-viscosity or dirty liquids like sewage and wastewater. Common Questions: Can the 3R4C0 be used with any liquid? It requires conductive liquids. It is not suitable for oils or distilled water which lack the necessary conductivity to trigger the relay. How do I prevent false readings in deep tanks? Ensure probes are mounted vertically and utilize spacers if rods are long enough to sway and touch the tank wall or other probes. What if the probe becomes coated with scale? Regular cleaning is recommended to maintain the conductive path; 316 SS handles mechanical scrubbing better than lower-grade alloys.
