UNPACKING
Unpack the instrument carefully. Make sure all components
have been removed from the foam protection. Inspect all
components for damage. Report any concealed damage to
the carrier within 24 hours. Check the contents of the carton/crates against the packing slip and report any discrepancies to Magnetrol. Check the nameplate model number
(Model number/approvals as per inserted separate sheet) to
be sure it agrees with the packing slip and purchase order.
Check and record the serial number for future reference
when ordering parts.

CALIBRATION
For T31-T35 / T3B / T3D and T3E units
Properly selected TUFFY units do not need any field calibration.
For T3C: field adjustable differential units
The Adjustable Differential Tuffy II, model T3C, may be set in the field for one of a variety of level differentials. By specific placement of the stops in the holes of the adjustment plate, the level differential may be changed.

To determine the differential
Example: T3C-C unit with stop holes B and G
1. Select the rising level of the upper stop:
example: upper stop = hole B: +85 mm
2. Select the falling level of the lower stop:
example: lower stop = hole G: -205 mm
3. Substract levels:
rising level / upper stop - falling level / lower
stop:
example: +85 mm - (-205 mm) = +290 mm
Example 2:T3C-8 unit: with stop holes D and B:
+183 mm - (+115 mm) = 68 mm

Cause of malfunction / Action
Check external causes first:
- blown fuses
- tripped reset button
- open power switch.
- controlled equipment fails.
- defective wiring to level switch.
Check wiring as per wiring diagrams on page 3
Check actuating arm and magnet assembly
1. Remove switch mechanism
2. Check for wiring interference or binding of actuating arm. The switch and
magnet must move throughout its entire range of motion without interference.
3. Replace the switch mechanism in case of binding.

Check float assembly
1. Remove the unit from service
2. Clean the mechanism if required
3. Tilt the float, when the unit is limited by its motion:
check differential setting (for T3C units only) – see above
4. Replace the unit in case cleaning and/or resetting did not solve the problem.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Periodic inspections are a necessary means to keep your level control in good working order. This control is a safety device
that protects the valuable equipment it serves. A systematic program of preventive maintenance should be implemented when
the control is placed into service. If the following instructions are observed, your control will provide reliable protection of your
equipment for many years.
What to do
1. Keep control clean.
Be sure the switch housing is always in place. This cover
is designed to keep dust and dirt from interfering with the
switch mechanism operation. In addition it protects
against damaging moisture and acts as a safety feature
by keeping bare wires and terminals from being exposed.
Should the housing cover become damaged or misplaced, obtain a replacement immediately.
2. Inspect switch mechanisms, terminals and connections
monthly.
Tuffy T3 level switches may sometimes be exposed to
excessive heat or moisture. Under such conditions insulation on electrical wires may become brittle, eventually
breaking or peeling away. The resulting bare wires can
cause short circuits. Check wiring carefully and replace
at first sign of brittle insulation.
Vibration may sometimes cause terminal screws to
loosen. Check all terminal connections to ensure that
screws are tight. Check wiring carefully and repair or
replace if necessary.
Note: It is recommended that spare switches, housing
covers and o-rings be kept on hand at all times.
3. Inspect entire Tuffy T3 unit periodically.
A periodic cleaning of the float and counterweight assembly will ensure continued free movement of the mechanism.
What to avoid
1. NEVER leave the switch housing cover off of the control
longer than is necessary to make routine inspections.
2. NEVER place a jumper wire across terminals to “cut-out”
the control. If a jumper is necessary for test purposes,
ensure that it is removed before placing the control into
service.
3. NEVER attempt to make adjustments to or replace
switches without reading instructions carefully. When in
doubt, consult the factory or your local representative.
4. NEVER use in systems containing iron particles. The
magnet in the float assembly can attract the particles and
become jammed.
5. NEVER put insulation over the switch housing.

IMPORTANT
SERVICE POLICY
Owners of Magnetrol products may request the return of a control; or, any part of a control for complete rebuilding or
replacement. They will be rebuilt or replaced promptly. Magnetrol International will repair or replace the control, at no cost to
the purchaser, (or owner) other than transportation cost if:
a. Returned within the warranty period; and,
b. The factory inspection finds the cause of the malfunction to be defective material or workmanship.
If the trouble is the result of conditions beyond our control; or, is NOT covered by the warranty, there will be charges for labour
and the parts required to rebuild or replace the equipment.
In some cases, it may be expedient to ship replacement parts; or, in extreme cases a complete new control, to replace the
original equipment before it is returned. If this is desired, notify the factory of both the model and serial numbers of the
control to be replaced. In such cases, credit for the materials returned, will be determined on the basis of the applicability of
our warranty.
No claims for misapplication, labour, direct or consequential damage will be allowed.
RETURNED MATERIAL PROCEDURE
So that we may efficiently process any materials that are returned, it is essential that a “Return Material Authorisation” (RMA)
form will be obtained from the factory. It is mandatory that this form will be attached to each material returned. This form is
available through Magnetrol’s local representative or by contacting the factory. Please supply the following information:
