Radar Offers Superior Solution for Taller Tanks

Cemstone Concrete Materials used float sensors to check the level of fuel in their tanks. Many of their tanks are tall—some of them are over 15-feet tall and hold 12,000 gallons of fuel. Although tall tanks can benefit from float sensor monitors, they are not always the most reliable option and are prone to failure overtime. When the technology failed, service representatives were hard to contact, and problems were not solved. The company needed a cost-effective monitoring system that would provide more accurate and consistent readings.

TankScan Monitors Provide Improved Inventory Management for Aviation Company

Central Wisconsin Aviation faced the challenge of performing manual tank level measurements using a 12’ stick to gather data. With 3 onsite tanks, staff members are required to physically climb to the top of the tanks to gather tank level readings. Weather conditions also need to be favorable. During the winter season this process is extremely hazardous when there is snow and ice build-upon the tanks. This method of tank monitoring proved to be dangerous, time consuming and often readings were inaccurate.

Residential Drinking Water Won’t Run Dry with Remote Tank Monitoring
