Freedom to explore while living comfortably and economically motivates millions of Boat & RV owners every year to take their "homes on the road" for recreation, camping, and travel. However, Boat & RV owners cannot take services provided to their regular homes for granted while on traveling. They must manage the liquid level in their fresh, gray, waste water holding tanks and the LPG tank. Faulty tank sensors can easily ruin a trip, causing the major inconvenience of a water shortage or an environmental problem with an overflow situation.
We offer the
SensaTank level detection system as
an aftermarket kit to solve the reliability and accuracy problems with
traditional float switches, foil tapes and resistive probes. Float switches are
known to stick, corrode over time and mechanically fail due to vibration and
shock. Foil tapes tend to loose their adhesiveness and tear. Accuracy of
resistance probes can change as layers of debris build up on them, causing the
the owner to recalibrate the levels or to suffer the inconvenience and cost of a
complete holding tank wash out. In addition, differential thermal expansion
between the metal probe and plastic holding tank can cause leakage problems over
time.
Key advantages include:
Reliability
The SensaTank system uses
Mirus™ detector cells based on
field effect technology. It is a "non-invasive" system with the
solid state sensors residing on the outside of the holding tank (or in the
tank wall itself). This approach avoids contamination of the liquid level
sensor by the tank contents. With no moving parts to degrade or fail, the
solid state sensors are extremely resistant to vibration and shock during
vehicle operation. Over the extended life of a Boat or RV , the SensaTank
system can save hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars of maintenance.
Attractive and user friendly
The SensaTank system includes a display panel with BRIGHT LED indicator lights
that is designed to be flush mounted. Draws less than 0.001-amp when no keys
are pressed. A maximum 1-amp draw.
Easy to
install
Installation is a snap. The SensaTank system has been designed with "plug and
go" connectors. In this multiplexed system, one wire to the single display
panel shows all three or four tank levels. In addition, SensaTank requires NO
CALIBRATION making installation a breeze. Can be used on non-metallic
tanks. Tanks can be any volume, and wall thickness up to
¾".
Easy to
clean
With no moving parts to degrade or fail, These electronic sensors reside on
the outside of the holding tank (or in the tank wall itself), never coming
into contact with the liquid inside the tank.
