Digital Fluid-Trac™ (DFT-110) Multi-Unit Drum Gauge
Product Overview
Product Description
Digital Fluid-Trac™ Model DFT-110 multi unit drum
level gauge is a cost competitive non-contact liquid
level drum gauge. The DFT-110 drum gauge was
designed for usage on ANSI MH2-2004 vertical drums
(≤ 32 inch depths). The DFT-110 drum gauge allows
the user to easily select between the following vertical
drum settings:
• 15 gallon
• 30 gallon
• 55 gallon
• 57 liter
• 114 liter
• 208 liter
Product Features
• Multiple Selectable Units: 15, 30, 55 gallons
or 57, 114, 208 liters
• Resolution: +/- 0.5 gallon or +/- 1 liter
• Accuracy: +/-2% of full scale volume
• Automatic Shutoff To Prolong Battery Life
• NEMA 4 Packaging
• Static Display Useful for Usage
Consumption Calculations: The static level
reading can be used for manual rate
calculations – i.e. daily or weekly consumption.
• Low Level Warning Light: A red LED will
flash once every second when the volume is at
10% or below the maximum volume.
• Easy to install: Digital Fluid-Trac™ DFT-110
has no components to protrude into the drum.
• Standard: Fits 2” NPT or ¾” NPS opening
• More Reliable: No components to chemically
corrode inside liquid media.
• Chemical compatibility: Digital Fluid-Trac™
DFT-110 drum gauge works with a wide
variety of media such as water, waste water,
motor oil, hydraulic fluid and diesel fuel.
The Digital Fluid-Trac™ DFT-110 drum level gauge is
NOT intended for use with gasoline.
SSI can customize the drum level gauge for other sizes
for large volume OEM orders.

Digital Fluid-Trac™ (DFT-110) Multi-Unit Drum Gauge
Product Overview
Measurement Technology
The Digital Fluid-Trac™ DFT-110 drum level gauge
uses ultrasonic technology to generate a high-
frequency sound wave and measures the time for the
echo to reflect off the target fluid’s surface and return.
The distance from the Digital Fluid-Trac’s sensor to the
liquid is calculated based on the speed of sound.
The Digital Fluid-Trac™ DFT-110 has a LCD which
displays the liquid level pictorially as well as in gallon
(or liter) units. The display shows the level reading
from the last time the Refresh/Select button was
pressed.
When the Refresh/Select button is pressed and
released, the DFT-110’s back-light is illuminated and
8.8.8. is displayed for 4 seconds to indicate the unit is
in test mode. The unit continuously monitors the
media in the vertical drum for 7 seconds and then
displays the liquid level. The level reading will remain
static until the Refresh/Select button is depressed
again.
20 seconds after the button was pressed, the unit will
go into a battery saver mode where the back-light is
shut off. The liquid level reading will be displayed for
5 minutes before the display turns off.
.
A low level warning light (red LED located on the
bottom left of the LCD display), will flash once every
second when the liquid level is <= 10% the maximum
volume. Note: This warning light does not operate
once the unit has powered down in battery saver
mode.
Electrical Interface
The Digital Fluid-Trac™ DFT-110 drum gauge is
powered by two 9 volt batteries (not included). The unit
can run on alkaline or lithium batteries.
If the battery life is low (voltage is below 14.2 volts),
“LoB “ will continuously flash to notify the user to
replace the batteries.
Displaying the DFT-110 Setting
a) Press and hold the Refresh/Select button
down for 7 seconds. The drum size will be
displayed. and the selected units (Liter or
Gallon) will be flashing.
b) Release the Refresh/Select button and the
unit will automatically go back into test
mode (indicated by 8.8.8) in 20 seconds.

Digital Fluid-Trac™ (DFT-110) Multi-Unit Drum Gauge
Product Overview
Selecting the Display Units
The Digital Fluid-Trac™ DFT-110 multi-unit drum
gauge can set to display the level reading in one of six
different configurations - gallons (15, 30, 55) or liters
( 57, 114, 208 ).
b) Enter the Select Mode: Press and hold
the Refresh/Select button down for 7
seconds to enter the Select Mode. The unit
will display Liter and Gallon. One of the
units will be flashing.
Note: If you release the button too soon, the DFT-
110 will be in test mode.
c) Switch the Desired Units: Press and
release the Refresh/Select button to switch
between the units.
d) Select the Desired Units: When the units
(Liter or Gallon) desired is flashing, press
and hold the Refresh/Select button for 7
seconds to select the units. The units will
stop flashing and the drum size will start
flashing.
e) Switch the Desired Drum Size: Press and
release the Refresh/Select button to switch
between the drum size.
f) Select the Desired Drum Size: When the
drum size desired is flashing, press and
hold the Refresh/Select button for 7
seconds to select the drum size. The drum
size will stop flashing
g) Return to Test Mode: Press and hold the
button until 8.8.8. is displayed – this
indicates test mode.
Testing With The DFT-110
a) After you have selected the proper units
and drum size for your application, Press
and release the Refresh/Select button.
b) The DFT-110’s back-light is illuminated
and 8.8.8. is displayed for 4 seconds to
indicate the unit is in test mode.
c) The DFT-110 continuously monitors the
media in the vertical drum for 7 seconds
and then displays this liquid level.
d) Battery Saver Mode: 20 seconds after the
button was pressed, the back-light is shut
off. The static liquid level reading will be
displayed for 5 minutes before the display
turns off.
Note: This liquid level displayed is a static value. You
must depress the Refresh/Select button to update the
liquid level reading.
e) A low level warning light (red LED
located on the bottom left of the LCD
display), will flash once every second
when the liquid level is <= 10% the
maximum volume.
Note: This warning light does not operate once the unit
has powered down in battery saver mode.
