The Reliance Eye-Hye® SmartLevel™ Remote Water Level Indication System (Clark-Reliance) helps operators monitor boiler drum water level from the control room or other remote locations. The Eye-Hye SmartLevel system uses patented technology to monitor the condition of its water level probes. As a result, operators gain clearer insight into boiler level indication and probe maintenance needs.
When residue or mineral build-up affects probe reliability, the system activates a blue blowdown indicator. Therefore, operators know when probe column blowdown is required. This smart diagnostic function helps reduce unnecessary blowdowns, nuisance repair trips, and exposure to hazardous boiler areas.
The system also helps distinguish contaminated probes from probes that need replacement. In addition, it can identify module or peripheral failures, which helps simplify troubleshooting. Remote indicators provide at-a-glance level information, system status, and blowdown notification.
Westech Industrial offers the Eye-Hye SmartLevel remote water level indication system across Canada. Our team can support product selection, service requirements, and integration with broader boiler monitoring needs. For projects requiring panels, enclosures, or packaged solutions, Westech can also support custom fabrication and project-specific assemblies.

Description
Smart Probe Diagnostics for Eye-Hye SmartLevel
The Eye-Hye SmartLevel system monitors the condition of the probes that sense water level in the boiler steam drum. This smart diagnostic technology helps operators maintain reliable boiler water level indication. Instead of relying only on routine blowdowns, teams can respond when the system identifies a cleaning need.
The system can distinguish contaminated probes from probes that require replacement. This helps maintenance teams avoid unnecessary repair trips. It also supports better planning because operators can see when blowdown is required.
Blue Blowdown Notification
The blue blowdown light gives operators a clear maintenance signal. When the blue light illuminates, a blowdown is due. This notification tells the control room or other remote locations that probe cleaning is required.
As a result, operators can reduce frequent blowdowns and clean the probe column when needed. This approach helps extend probe and valve life because blowdowns create wear. It also helps reduce operator exposure to hazardous boiler areas.
Remote Water Level Indication at a Glance
Remote indicators provide critical boiler level information quickly. The indicator uses red, green, and white lights to show water level conditions. White lights highlight normal water level, so operators can identify deviations faster.
Remote indicators can sit up to one mile from the boiler. In addition, teams can add multiple indicators where operators need convenient visibility. Weatherproof enclosures can also support in-plant locations.
The Eye-Hye SmartLevel system also includes a system status indicator. This alerts operators to system errors, including individual level detection module or peripheral failures. Therefore, teams can act faster when troubleshooting.
4-Wire Indicator Circuit
The system uses a 4-wire indicator circuit between the control unit and remote indicator. This helps lower installation costs compared with traditional systems requiring up to 25 conductors.
The indicator also cycles with the controller for continuous communication. This fail-safe communication helps maintain confidence in the remote indication system.
SC Series Control Unit
The SC Series Control Unit uses a modular design with rugged, vibration-resistant connections. It supports probe level detection modules, peripheral accessory boards, and field wiring terminations. Wire guides also help reduce stress at wire terminations.
The control unit provides alarms and trip circuits at field-selectable levels. It also supports 2 out of 3 voting logic, along with time delay on actuation and release. Therefore, operators can configure the system for the application.
Retrofit-Friendly Upgrade Path
The Eye-Hye SmartLevel system can upgrade existing Eye-Hye installations without modifying the existing probe column or probes. Remote and local LED indicators come in two sizes. They also fit existing control room panel cutouts.
A typical system can be upgraded in a few hours. For existing systems, the original serial number helps support the correct upgrade recommendation.
Conductivity Probe Options
Clark-Reliance offers conductivity probe options for a range of boiler applications. Traditional probes support lower and medium pressure requirements. Brazed probes offer one-piece construction for harsh service or frequent cycling applications.
Each probe undergoes three testing methods to support reliability across variable boiler water chemistry. In addition, high-pressure probe options help support applications up to 3000 PSI.
Applications
The Eye-Hye SmartLevel system supports boiler applications where operators need dependable remote water level indication and clearer probe maintenance insight. It works well in facilities that need control room visibility, remote indication, and efficient boiler drum monitoring.
Common applications include:
- Boiler steam drum water level indication
- Power generation and cogeneration facilities
- HRSG applications
- Process boilers
- Boiler level indication upgrades
- Existing Eye-Hye system retrofits
- High-pressure boiler applications
- Frequent cycling boiler applications
