1 When selecting the required pressure sensor cable length; please also consider the LTE logger desired mounting location. If the tank height is similar to the length of the cable, then there may be insufficient cable available to install the LTE logger in the desired location.

2 To maintain optimum battery health during storage.

3 FS (Full Scale) of rated pressure.

4 Based on 1 communication per day and good network coverage.

5 The pressure probe electronic ground is referenced to the metal casing of the probe. Equipotential grounding is recommended for battery powered floating systems. An earth connection should be made from the logger unit 0V reference to the body of the metal tank being monitored by the pressure probe – refer to the installation guide for further details.
