The automatic tank gauge is a float actuated tape driven gauge and by means of a digital counter indicates float travel accurately to 1/16 inch.
This automatic tank gauge comes equipped with the modular cartridge kit. The kit consists of a spring motor drum, a power hub and a stainless steel constant power spring. Also included in the tank gauge is an accurately perforated stainless steel tape. Bearing loads are well distributed through Teflon bushings rotating on polished stainless steel shafts.
Local readout is by means of a digital counter featuring large black numerals on a white background. Remote reading is added by simply removing the counter housing cover, installing a 2’’ coupling and bolting a transmitter in place of the counter housing cover. Automatic tank gauge calibration is quick and easy. Loosen screws and swing open access plate; then simply rotate large inch wheel until counter wheels are set. This is the fastest and most positive calibration available on any float actuated counter type automatic tank gauge.
Choice of materials, rugged construction and counter housing sealed from automatic tank gauge head permits application of the gauging system to a wide variety of environmental conditions. An operational checker for manually jogging the tape to insure a “free movement” system is standard on automatic tank gauge head as well as provisions for optional high and low level limit switches. A hand crank for manually raising and lowering the float is also optional. Complete accessory kits are available for all standard and most special tank configurations and cover a broad selection of materials.
