Professional Installation Requirements
- Installation should be performed by a suitably qualified technician familiar with low-voltage instrumentation and tank-level systems. Suspend the transducer securely, prevent movement in turbulent water, and ensure the breather tube is not kinked or obstructed. Electrical termination and integration should follow applicable equipment instructions and site wiring requirements.
Applications
- Potable water storage tanks
- Rainwater harvesting tanks
- Raw and groundwater tanks
- Reservoirs and wells
- Tank level monitoring and display systems
- Pump control panels and PLC/SCADA systems
- Water supply and irrigation level measurement
Standards & Compliance
- AS/NZS 4020:2018 is relevant to products and materials used in contact with drinking water; product-specific compliance was not stated in the manufacturer information and should be confirmed with MATelec.
Environmental Benefits
- Supports accurate water-level monitoring to help prevent tank overflow and water loss
- 316 stainless steel construction and a rated life exceeding 1 × 10⁸ pressure cycles can reduce replacement frequency and material waste
- Enables automated water storage and pump-control systems that can improve water-management efficiency
