Detailed description

The WIF-RK30880-E is a diesel fuel water presence detector, designed as an accessory for the Maretron RIM100 indicator module. Installed at the bottom of a compatible fuel filter, it alerts to the presence of water to trigger an alert or indicator on the onboard monitoring system.

Detection via RIM100, not a direct NMEA 2000 sensor

This reference must not be presented as a standalone NMEA 2000 sensor. The Maretron documentation states that the WIF-RK30880-E connects to the NMEA 2000 network via an RIM100 module: the detector outputs a voltage signal when water is detected, and the RIM100 reads this channel to display a status or trigger an alert.

Electrical installation

The installation uses the indicator circuit associated with the fuel filter, with 12 or 24 VDC power supply and a 1 A fuse according to the wiring diagram. The wiring between the indicator and the RIM100 uses suitable conductors, then the RIM100 publishes the status on the monitoring network.

Skysat usage

This product is relevant on boats where fuel alerts need to be integrated into a Maretron/Raymarine monitoring system. For a standard product sheet, it must be sold with the correct context: diesel filter water detector, to be paired with an RIM100 and a compatible display or software, rather than a simple SeaTalk NG cable.

Expert opinion

« To be paired with RIM100 to trigger a genuine fuel alert »

The key point about WIF-RK30880-E is not to sell it as a standalone NMEA 2000 sensor. It is a filter detector that becomes usable within the Maretron ecosystem via the RIM100. For a Skysat customer, I recommend it if the installation already includes Maretron monitoring or if a RIM100 is planned to report multiple contacts/states. Without a RIM100 or equivalent input device, the product alone will not publish alerts on the network.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the WIF-RK30880-E used for?

The WIF-RK30880-E detects the presence of water in the monitored diesel fuel. It indicates when the filter or water separator needs to be inspected or drained.

Is this an autonomous NMEA 2000 sensor?

No. The datasheet describes it as an accessory for the Maretron RIM100 module. The detector connects to the RIM100, which then publishes the status or alert in the monitoring system.

Which module is required with this sensor?

A RIM100 module or a compatible input capable of reading the sensor signal is required. In the Maretron ecosystem, the RIM100 is the solution specified in the documentation.

How is the alert generated?

When water is detected, the sensor provides an electrical signal. The RIM100 reads this signal on an input channel and can then trigger an alert or display an indicator on a compatible screen or software.

Is the sensor powered by the NMEA 2000 network?

No, not directly. The manual diagram shows a 12/24 V DC power supply for the indicator circuit with a 1 A fuse. The NMEA 2000 network then carries the information via the RIM100.

Where is the WIF-RK30880-E installed?

It installs on the bottom of a compatible fuel filter or fuel water separator, in accordance with the filter manufacturer's instructions and the Maretron wiring diagram.

Which displays can show the status?

The manual specifically mentions DSM250, N2KAnalyzer, and Maretron products capable of configuring or displaying the RIM100 status. In practice, you need to check the onboard display or monitoring software.

What needs to be checked before purchasing?

Check mechanical compatibility with the fuel filter, the presence of an RIM100 or a compatible input, the 12/24 VDC power supply, and how the alert will be displayed on the monitoring system.
