tank rise Tank Rise: Represents the degree of tilt over the entire length of the tank. Applies to Flat and
Custom 3 Tank Types. This value is entered in Level units (inches/millimeters) and represents
the difference between the low and high end of the tank. See below illustration for complete
details.
Entry Type: 2-digit numeric
Range Limits: 0-9.9” [0-99 millimeters]
Default/Initialized value: 0.0 [0]
The user sticks and records fuel level in the probe riser opening and also in another tank riser, (E.G. “Fill”) and
preferable at the opposite end of the tank. The fuel height difference is divided by the distance between the two risers.
See the above figure and following Examples:
English
User Measured values:
Fuel Level in Left Riser = 49.5” Fuel Level in Right Riser = 47”
D = Distance between the risers = 250” L = Total Tank Length = 400”
User Calculations:
S = Difference in fuel level between risers= 49.5” – 47” = 2.5”
Tank Rise (S × L ÷ D): 4” (49.5” × 400” ÷ 250”)
Metric
User Measured values:
Fuel Level in Left Riser = 1250 mm Fuel Level in Right Riser = 1200 mm
D = Distance between the risers = 6350 mm L = Total Tank Length = 10160 mm
User Calculations:
S = Difference in fuel level between risers= 1250 mm – 1200 mm = 50 mm
Tank Rise (S × L ÷ D): 80 mm (50 mm × 10160 mm ÷ 6350 mm)
tank Ht Tank Height: The inside height in inches/millimeters. Applies to Vertical, Custom 8, and Cone
Tank Types.
Entry Type: 5-digit numeric
Range Limits: 0 – 1999.9 inches [0 – 49,999 millimeters]
Default/Initialized value: 0.0 [0]
tank Len Tank Length: The inside length of a tilted tank in inches/millimeters. Applies to Flat and Custom
3 Tank Types. This context sensitive menu item only appears if Tank Rise is NOT zero.
Entry Type: 5-digit numeric
Range Limits: 0 – 1999.9 inches [0 – 49,999 millimeters]
Default/Initialized value: 0.0 [0]
cone Ht Cone Height: The inside height of the conical bottom of the Cone Tank Type.
Entry Type: 3-digit numeric
Range Limits: 0 – 99.9 inches [0 – 999 millimeters]
Default/Initialized value: 0.0 [0]
