Mechanical Tank Contents Gauges

ST (External Mount) Hydrostatic Contents Gauge System

The AJD ST (Suspended Tank) Hydrostatic Contents Gauge System is a self-powered hydrostatic tank level gauge designed to provide continuous remote indication of liquid contents without electrical or pneumatic power. The Internally mounted sensor is suspended from the top of the tank above the base and above the sludge level, providing accurate and reliable level measurement for marine and industrial applications. Suitable for diesel, fuel oil, biodiesel, lubricating oil, water, chemicals, AdBlue® and urea. The Indicator / Gauge is suppled detachable a bulk head coupling and / or tank sealing flange can be supplied.
