New TS1 Ultrasonic Sender from BEP

TS1

 

After being asked for some time now if we could supply the incredible BEP Marine TS1 Ultrasonic Sender, we have decided to go ahead and stock this item.


  • The TS1 is capable of sensing water, waste, petrol and diesel in polyethylene, aluminium, stainless steel and fibreglass tanks.
  • Once programmed by Tek-Tanks the TS1 is easy to fit, extremely accurate and no moving parts.
  • Much more reliable than devices such as float sensors which are prone to getting jammed.
  • Works with petrol, diesel, fresh water, grey water and black water.
  • Can be used with both metal and plastic tanks.
  • The Ultrasonic Sender is a revolutionary breakthrough in measuring levels in virtually any type or shape of tank.


It solves a complex problem that in the past, lots of different sender solutions were needed for different tanks.  The TS1 sender can be used in ANY tank between 200 and 2000mm in depth and it is compatible with virtually any meter head type. The TS1 must be mounted 150mm away from any tank wall or vertical baffle. It works by using ultrasonic waves to measure the fluid level rather than relying on senders either sat in the fuel, on-top of the fuel or installed at different heights through the side of the tank. The unit is low profile and uses an industry standard SAE 5 stud mounting pattern with a gasket seal and washer and can therefore be easily retrofitted in the place of existing senders as well as used for new fits.

The Ultrasonic sender is pre-programmed for linear tanks to 2 meters in depth and with a 0-5 volt output. For nonlinear tanks and different outputs, Tek Tanks can pre-program units for customers.

Alternative outputs of 10 – 180 ohms, 10-300 ohms, 240-33 ohms and 1-5 volts are available.

Level Indicators

Tank Level Indication

Tank level indication is acheived in many ways, whether it be electrical or mechanical. A sender mounted in the tank sends a signal to a gauge and can either be 12 or 24 volts. A mechancial unit is read directly from the tank top.

Tek-Tanks can also supply a range of non-invasive units which “read” the level through the tank wall and can be fitted to stainless steel, mild steel and aluminium tanks as well as our own fabricated custom built tanks.

Level through the tank wall and can be fitted to stainless steel, mild steel and aluminium tanks as well as our own fabricated custom built tanks.

Level indication can be supplied for water, waste and fuel tanks. Switching units to control pumps can also be supplied for grey water handling and fuel transfer systems…..please give us a call to discuss your requirements or ideas….we love a challenge!

Gobius Level Indicator

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009

Here at Tek-Tanks we supply the level indicator Gobius , the first level indicator in the world that measures the contents of tanks in plastic, stainless steel, aluminium or steel from the OUTSIDE. Regardless of the tank’s size and shape, or amount of deposit on the inside of the tank wall, Gobius is reliable.

There are a number of advantages to the Gobius , including: -

.It measures from the outside of the tank

. It is very easy to install

. No need to drill extra holes, the Gobius sticks to the side of your tank.

. Coloured lamps show the current fluid at 4 levels.

. It never comes in direct contact with the tanks contents.
