Product Description
The 18.605 G is designed specifically for use in water and diesel fuel tank applications to measure the level of liquid and determine the quantity of tank contents. This sensor can be connected to tank gauging instrumentation to provide a local indication of tank level or remote telemetry data of diesel fuel or water usage.
This tank level sensor can be installed by lowering into the inside of a tank or by screwing onto the outside of the tank at the bottom via the G1/4 male (1/4 BSP P male) thread. The electrical connection to the tank level sensor is IP68 rated for continuous submersion in diesel fuel or water.
There are five standard level ranges available, starting with a 0 to 0.1 bar (1.5 psi) range for small tanks 1 metre (3.28 feet high), 0.25 bar (3.63 psi), 0.4 bar (5.8 psi), 0.6 bar (8.7 psi), and 1 bar (15 psi) range for 10 metre (33 feet) high tanks.
Depending on connected tank content management instrumentation the sensor can be supplied with a low supply voltage which outputs a 10…90% of supply voltage, a 4-20mA current loop which is convenient for connecting most process instrumentation interfaces, and 0-10Vdc output which is commonly used for the analogue input in building management systems.
The housing of the sensor is made from stainless steel 304, the diaphragm is stainless steel 316L, FMK seals are used to provide te IP68 watertight seal at the cable exit, and the cable is jacket is made from PVC which is chemical resistant and compatible with most fuel types.
