Livewell Bait Tank Alarm Flow Sensor.
It is not a question of if, but when a livewell bait pump will clog or malfunction.
Will it happen when you are watching the livewell? Or will it happen on a fishing trip at 3 AM? Or will you find out an hour late when you have arrived at your destination?
SIGNETMARINE introduces BaitWatch™, the first integrated paddlewheel livewell alarm system.
The BaitWatch™ System uses an extractable paddlewheel flow sensor and digital electronics to detect low flow to the livewell so that pump malfunction, clogging, loss of prime, or electrical failure to the pump can easily be monitored.
The BaitWatch System is composed of 3 main components: the Flow Sensor Housing, the small Electronics Module with a loud audible alarm (not shown), and the Display Panel. The sensor housing is available in two models: the standard version for all pumps with hose sizes ¾”-1” and the commercial version designed for high output pumps using 2” pipe.
The BaitWatch Bait Tank Alarm System features include:
- Extractable paddlewheel sensor allows for easy inspection or cleaning.
- Anodized aluminum display panel with bi-color status light can be installed anywhere. Multiple display panel option.
- Remotely mounted alarm.
- Fail-safe flow sensing: the paddlewheel must be spinning to be in a non-alarm state.
- Two user settable low-flow trigger points.
- Polyurethane encapsulated electronics module.
- Loud 103db audible alarm.
- Supplied 1” hose fittings.
- Easy installation.
Why ruin a fishing trip because of dead bait?
Considering the high cost of fuel, bait, and time, the BaitWatch™ System is the ideal answer to the all-to-common problem of inadequate flow to the livewell caused by blockage, air-lock, electrical failure or loss of prime. The condition of the system can be monitored at any time via the status light on the display panel. When low flow is detected, the loud alarm is triggered and the status light changes from green to red.
