Blue Sea Vessel Systems Monitor Tank Sender Diesel, Water, Waste
Provides accurate, reliable tank level measurement for use with the Blue Sea Vessel Systems Monitor VSM 422 and M2 Meters.
The non-contacting ultrasonic sender eliminates mechanical moving parts, while digital filtering helps reduce errors caused by liquid movement and sloshing in mobile tanks.
Features
- Designed for diesel, water and waste tanks.
- Compatible with VSM 422 and M2 Meters.
- Non-contacting ultrasonic technology with no mechanical moving parts.
- Digital filtering reduces errors caused by liquid sloshing.
- Can be precisely calibrated for individual tanks.
- 10–32V DC supply voltage.
- Low 40mA operating current at 12V and 45mA at 24V.
Additional Information
- Compatibility: Calibrated for use with the Blue Sea VSM 422 and M2 Meters; will not function with other tank monitors.
- Mounting Clearance: Install at least 4" (102 mm) from any tank side or baffle.
- Tank Floor: Tank floor must be flat and not sloped.
- Maximum Tank Depth: 32" (813 mm).
- Sender Orientation: Must be mounted perpendicular to the surface of the liquid.
- Negative Connection: Connect the sender's negative connection as directly as possible to the vessel's main negative bus.
- Installation: Proper installation and positioning are important for accurate tank-level readings. Blue Sea's installation guidance recommends positioning the sender away from tank edges, baffles and other obstructions to avoid signal reflections.
