Tank gauges

Hi CDK,

Well, rest asure when the swell picks you up you are going to come down at one stage or another

Why is it when someone doesn't HAVE a depth guage when they want one it has to be accurate to the nearest ml ! Most fuel guages give it to you +/-10 liter per 100L...

You get different range pressure sensors. In a shallow tank you can use a more sensitive sensor that would increase the sensitivity.

You have to remember that the micro processors available today is capable of higher resolution, so even if the sensor outputs a relative 'unaccurate' value of say 0 to 1V, the indication is pretty accurate, which could be better than 1%.

Yes you can compensate for atmospheric pressure using another sensor, but if I'm not mistaken you get some with that built in already. All you measure is absolute pressure.

Interestingly, I rarely get false readings from my dip-stick.

Hi Tom

I have some see through plastic PE tanks. Very accurate visual display.

LOL, you should have noticed nobody is interested in your 'dip stick'.
This isn't that kind of a forum

Nothing is half so much fun as screwing around with boats, except screwing around in a boat.

LOL, you mean Stumble around in a boat ?
Heck I seem to notice all kinds of funny things tonigh.
