Battery Type Used: Single-Point Watering System

The Type 6A200AT probe is one with a single LED which flashes blue when the battery needs water from the single-point watering system reservoir.

The probe installs in a 1/8" diameter hole drilled into the cover over the center battery cell and is attached by a stainless mounting screw. Two wire

Hdyro-Eye Type 6A Alert probe

leads are provided, with stainless screws for attachment to the inter-cell straps linking the cells of the battery. The black lead goes to the outboard strap of the cell adjacent in the direction of the battery negative post and the red wire goes to the corresponding strap of the cell on the opposite side. There are 6 volts between the two wire terminals.

The probe will remain dormant until the acid level in the center cell gets too low and water needs to be added.

The probe shaft length is 2" but other lengths can be made. On industrial batteries and others with single-point watering systems, this probe is a real asset.
