Oil tray with leak detection system
An oil tray with an infrared leak detection
system is available for your OUF.
This optional oil tray is strongly recommended,
particularly in the event that the overflow pipe
is not connected.
In some regions, the use of the oil tray can be
compulsory under certain local standards.
Please ask your dealer for details.
How does the leak detection system function
Once installed, the function of your OUF remains unchanged,
except when some liquid at the infrared probe activates the
system. After a 4 seconds delay -safety against unnecessary
stops-:
-The pump stops and the lifter shut down
-The upper red “high level” led light comes on
This status will be maintained until the infrared probe is
completely clean and dry again.
Once the probe is clean, the system will fill up automatically
again, unless low or high level alarm is present.
Installation of the leak detection system:
1.- Be sure that the OUF88 unit is not
powered
2.- Remove the front plastic cover
3.- Fix the leak detection 4 pin connector at
the L.D. PCB (see Fig. 1)
4.- Fix the leak detection PCB with its 4
screws at OUF reservoir (Above control PCB)
5.- Connect the power cables according to
leak detection wiring diagram (Pag. 8)
6.- Place the infrared sensor in the blue clip
in the oil tray, at the lowest possible
position.
7.- Extract the yellow cap at overflow outlet

If under automatic function, the noise level is not low and
stable, that will mean that you have air coming inside the pump:
Check suction line vacuum tightness, tube size, and distances
related to suction limits of your OUF 88.
If the oil does not come up to the OUF 88:
-Check suction pipe for blockage and/or vacuum tightness.
-Is your vertical lift height lower than 8 mt?
-Check if the filter is clogged/dirty
If the problem still persists:
-Check pump suction power (with a vacuum gauge or
by placing your hand at the filter inlet and pressing the
start button to see if you can feel suction.
-Check power supply voltage
-Prime the suction line at the OUF 88. Then switch on
the pump to pull this oil through and the oil from the
tank.
-Check if there is oil at main tank. After 1 hour
pumping without oil, the pump will stop itself.
Maintenance:
-Clean regularly the filter bowl and strainer.
