Fuel Tank level indicators

Product Description

FLOWTECH offers a complete variety of Float and Board Type Tank Level gauges (indicators) appropriate for large non-pressurized liquid storage tanks and vessels. These gauges can also be used on cone roofs, float roofs, floating roofs, and subsurface tanks, among other things. The fluid under test should have a Specific Gravity greater than 0.6 (Free Flow). The buoyancy concept underpins the operation of these level gauges.

The float in this level gauge is intended to float on the liquid levels based on the specific gravity of the liquid. The float is linked to a pointer by a rope and a system of pulleys. The pointer moves along a board marked in centimeters (CM) that is positioned parallel to the tank. We supply two guide wires that are firmly fastened to the tank bottom for tanks taller than 5 meters to limit the horizontal movement of the float.

FAQ-

What is the purpose of a fuel tank level indicator?

Fuel tank level indicators use a variety of concepts, such as float, capacitance, ultrasonic, and pressure. To indicate the level, float-based indicators employ a float that moves with the gasoline level and is attached to a mechanical or electronic gauge. The change in capacitance between two sensors when the fuel level changes is measured using capacitance-based indicators. Ultrasonic indicators assess the fuel level using sound waves, whereas pressure-based indicators utilize pressure sensors to do so.

Is it possible to use gasoline tank level indicators on both above-ground and subterranean tanks?

Yes, both above-ground and subterranean tanks include gasoline tank level indicators. However, it is critical to select an indicator that is developed precisely for the kind of tank and the installation requirements.

What is the precision of gasoline tank level indicators?

The accuracy of gasoline tank level indicators varies based on their kind and grade. Higher-end indicators may be quite accurate, often within a few percentage points of the actual fuel level.
