Tank Level Sensors & Monitoring Accessories

• Hydrostatic pressure sensors with 4–20mA, 0.5–4.5V and RS485 outputs

• Alternative sensor technologies including radar, ultrasonic, capacitance and guided radar

• Applications across diesel, oil, AdBlue, chemical, water and wastewater tanks

• Installation accessories and protection devices for reliable tank monitoring systems

Hydrostatic Pressure Sensors

 

Hydrostatic pressure sensors provide a reliable and accurate method of measuring liquid level in non-pressurised storage tanks. By measuring the hydrostatic pressure created by the liquid column above the sensor, the system can determine the true tank level regardless of tank shape or geometry.

• Submersible pressure probe design for continuous liquid level measurement

• Output options including 4-20 mA, 0.5-4.5 V and RS485 Modbus

• Suitable for diesel, fuel oils, AdBlue, water, chemicals and wastewater

• Ideal for vertical cylindrical, horizontal and rectangular tanks

• Long cable lengths for deep tanks and underground storage systems

• Chemical storage tanks
• AdBlue tanks
• Water and rainwater storage tanks
• Wastewater monitoring systems

Signal Output Options
 

• 4–20 mA analogue output for industrial control systems
• 0.5–4.5 V output for direct connection to digital tank gauges
• RS485 Modbus communication for integration with telemetry and SCADA systems

Installation Advantages
 

• Direct submersible installation inside the tank

• Suitable for vertical, horizontal and rectangular tanks

• Long sensor cable lengths for deep tanks

• Compatible with local tank gauges and remote monitoring systems

Alternative Tank Level Sensors 
 

While hydrostatic pressure sensors are widely used for tank level measurement, alternative sensor technologies may be better suited to certain tank designs or operating environments.

Non-contact and probe-based sensors such as radar, ultrasonic, capacitance and guided radar sensors provide flexible measurement solutions where submersible probes are not practical or where non-contact measurement is preferred.

These sensors are commonly used in industrial storage tanks, chemical tanks, water systems and process vessels.

• Radar level sensors for high-accuracy non-contact tank measurement

• Ultrasonic sensors ideal for water, wastewater and open tank monitoring

• Capacitance level probes for stable liquid measurement

• Guided radar sensors for precise level monitoring in challenging environments

• Suitable for diesel, oil, chemicals, AdBlue, water and industrial liquids

Tank Gauge Adaptors & Installation Accessories
 

A range of tank gauge adaptors and installation accessories are available to support reliable tank level monitoring and sensor installation.

These components allow electronic tank monitoring systems to be easily integrated with existing tank fittings and mechanical gauges, reducing installation time and avoiding major modifications to the tank.

Adaptors such as Rochester tank gauge adaptors, multi-step bushings and sealing plates allow sensors to be securely mounted on steel, plastic and fibreglass tanks while maintaining a safe and sealed installation.

• Rochester tank gauge adaptors for integrating electronic monitoring with existing mechanical gauges

• Multi-step bushings for secure installation into tank sockets and threaded connections

• Sealing plates and adaptors for plastic and fibreglass tanks

• Junction boxes with breathable vent plugs for safe sensor cable termination

• High-level and bund float switches providing independent mechanical overfill protection
