Outer Tank
level and no higher than any opening at the
(Bund)
top of the tank (filling point etc)
• Only drill the tank where permissible
(Please consult the tank manufacturer
before drilling the tank)
Inner Tank
• Ensure that the unit is fitted to the inner tank
if it is a bunded tank
• The unit can't sit at an angle as this gives an
incorrect level. Take care not to choose an
area on which water could gather i.e. dent/
depression or a position directly above any
restricted area inside the tank.
• For tanks with window corrugations please
ensure that the transmitter is not positioned
above of the window.
Choose a suitable

screwed correctly into the base and that the
threads have not crossed, to give a good seal
