Mounting the Sensors
Each TankMaster includes four pre-wired threshold sensors for one tank. These should be installed vertically along the side of the tank using the supplied adhesive pads.
Prepare the tank surface
-
- Select a smooth, flat area of the tank wall.
- Clean the area to remove any dirt, oil, or residue.
- Allow the surface to dry completely before attaching sensors.
Apply the adhesive pads
-
- Peel the protective backing from a 3M adhesive pads.
- Align the pad on the back of each sensor and press firmly for several seconds to ensure good adhesion.
Position and attach sensors
-
- Start with the lowest sensor (S1) near the bottom of the tank (the “empty” level).
- Space the remaining sensors evenly up the side of the tank, ending with S4 near the top (“full” level).
- Press each sensor firmly against the tank wall for a secure bond.
Secure cables
-
- Route the sensor cables neatly along the tank surface.
- Use cable clips or zip ties to prevent strain or vibration wear.
- Avoid tight bends, sharp edges, or routing near high-heat areas.
