Installation and Operating Manual
Tank Sensor FL For Tank Height 30 cm - 100 cm, 12 V and 24 V No. 5530
The tank transmitter had been designed for precise level masuring of fresh water tanks, sewage water tanks and feces
tanks of plastic and metal material in campers, caravans and boats. Measurement of the level is effected fully-
automatically without mechanically moving parts according to the capacitive method of measurement, and it is
transferred to the display unit via a three-core cable. The electronic system is completely sealed.Suitable and required
for the VOTRONIC Tank Displays:
The Tank Sensor FL has to be mounted directly at the tank. It is suitable for:
Fresh Water (if applicable, please observe the Guidelines for Drinking-Water Quality DIN 2001-2)
Sewage Water
Plastic Tanks, all materials
Metal Tanks (Aluminium, Steel, Stainless Steel, etc.)
It is adjustable to tank heights from 30 cm to 1 m.
Fig. 1: Installation on top of the tank (preferred)
The fill level in the tank is measured
capacitively. This is because the probe
forms with the surrounding water a
"capacitor" whose value increases with
the fill level measured by the Tank
Sensor FL. The compound to the water
as an "antipole" is formed by the
"conductor ".
It is important that the probe can hang
freely and do not tangents the tank wall
or installations in the tank.
Depending on the conditions of space,
the Tank Sensor FL can be installed:
1. at the tank top (preferred, Fig. 1)
2. or laterally at the tank top (Fig. 2).
