The level gauge control unit uses a submersible level sensor to continuously measure the water level in the tank and, based on the tank’s dimensions, continuously calculates the current volume of water (in liters and as a percentage of the tank’s total volume). Both values are shown on the unit’s graphic display, which is located near the pump operator.
In addition, the H500 level gauge monitors the rate at which the water level is rising or falling during firefighting or tank filling and displays the time remaining until the tank is empty or full.
The H500 level gauge also features an input for monitoring the pump’s operating hours and an output for an audible siren, which can be used, for example, during the tanker filling process.
