Tanklevel Interface
– User and Installation Manual
4 OPERATION
The Tanklevel Interface can monitor any volume level in your system, using any powered or non-
powered electric sensor that complies with the specifications. A typical application of this interface is
monitoring the water or fuel tank level in a ship. For this purpose, a float sensor must be mounted. To
monitor the tank level, you can use a display like the Easy View 5 for example, or a laptop or notebook
with the free downloadable MasterAdjust software. The following table shows the Tanklevel Interface
monitoring and alarms items as displayed in MasterAdjust.
