- Installation guide
Maretron WIF-RK30880-E is an accessory for the RIM100 Run Indicator Module. It indicates the presence of water in diesel fuel, alerting you when it's time to drain the fuel filter.
Capabilities:
- Detects water in diesel fuel using a 47KΩ trigger threshold.
- Connects to the NMEA 2000 network via a Maretron RIM100 Run Indicator Module.
- Displays water detection status on compatible Maretron displays (DSM150 or DSM250 with firmware 1.3.5 or higher, or N2KAnalyzer software).
- Operates in temperatures ranging from -40° to 250°F (-40°C to 121°C).
- Features a glass-filled nylon housing for durability.

Installation Instructions
WIF-RK30880-E Water in Fuel Detector
Introduction
The Maretron WIF-RK30880-E is an accessory for the RIM100 Run Indicator Module. The WIF-RK30880-E will
indicate presence of water in the diesel fuel being monitored, indicating that it is time for the fuel filter to be
drained.
Instructions
Please follow these instructions to connect the WIF-RK30880-E to the NMEA 2000 network via a Maretron
RIM100 Run Indicator Module. The wiring diagram appears in Figure 1 on the reverse side of this page. The
diagram shows a connection to channel #1, but connections to other channels are similar.
1. Install the WIF-RK30880-E per the manufacturer’s instructions packaged with the device.
2. Add a wire (18AWG or larger) between
a. the terminal of the indicator light which is connected to the 1A fuse recommended by the
manufacturer (the other side of the fuse is connected to the 12/24VDC supply), and
b. the positive terminal on the selected run detection channel on the RIM100.
For this example, add a wire between the indicator light terminal connected to the 1A fuse and RIM100
terminal V1+ (Please refer to Figure 1).
3. Add a wire (18AWG or larger) between
a. the terminal of the indicator light which is connected to the water in fuel sensor via the yellow
wire, and
b. the negative terminal on the selected run detection channel on the RIM100.
For this example, add a wire between the indicator light terminal connected to the yellow wire coming
from the water in fuel detector and RIM100 terminal V1- (Please refer to Figure 1).
4. Use a Maretron DSM150 or DSM250 display (firmware 1.3.5 or higher), or the DSM250 Viewing function
of Maretron N2KAnalyzer software, or other Maretron display product capable of configuring the RIM100
to set the switch channel mode (indicated as “Channel #x Mode” on the DSM250) for the appropriate
channel to the “Enable” setting. For this example, you would set “Channel #1 Mode” to “Enable”.
5. Supply Power to the NMEA 2000 network, Verify that the switch channel indicates an “off” (normal) state
using Maretron N2KView software, N2KAnalyzer, or other product capable of displaying switch indicator
state.
6. Remove the water in fuel indicator from the fuel filter and test the water in fuel indicator by shorting
together the two terminals of the water in fuel indicator with a wire. Verify that the switch channel
indicates an “on” state.
7. Reinstall the water in fuel indicator into the fuel filter per the manufacturer’s instructions and verify that the
switch channel indicates an “off” (normal) state.
