Adam, I too would be keen to hear how your whole restoration went. I bet a lot of us would. How did you know she was down there and how did you get her up? What sank her? I have to say, you are quite the hero for saving a great boat like that! Cheers to you and hope to hear some stories,Barbara Hickson Flight Risk ‘76 33-1Charleston, SC

Re: Tank level indicators (Josh Muckley) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Wed, 3 Oct 2018 01:26:58 -0400 From: Josh Muckley <muckl...@gmail.com> To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Re: Stus-List Tank level indicators Message-ID: <ca+zacrafiw4toqbp+3e-svt0u8lwrgxsgdnjuvoqu-7zavr...@mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" The install is pretty straightforward. First off the biggest advantage to this system is that it uses some type of capacitance to detect level. Similar to the way our smartphones detect touch. The sensors are completely external to the tank and simply adhere to the outside. This means NO LEAKS. They are comprised of 2 aluminum tape (metal duct tape) strips installed in parallel on any side besides the top or bottom. They run from the top of the tank to the bottom in a vertical fashion. As the level in the tank rises the liquid capacitively couples more signal between the two vertical strips. This is processed into an output number and then the user calibrates the specific number to a percentage of level during installation/setup. You choose different calibration intervals for ease and accuracy. Either a 2 point (full/empty), 5 point (25% increments), or 11 point (10% increments). An 11 point calibration provides the best accuracy for odd shaped tanks with sloping or curved sides. Besides adhering aluminum tape to the side of the tank, a sensor unit with 2 pads gets adhered to the tank. One pad to each tape strip. The sensor is a 4 wire device which has a short pig tail. A user supplied cable needs to be routed and connected between the head unit and the sensor. A template is provided for cutting the appropriate hole to mount the head unit. Then a 12v supply is required. Then calibrate by filling the tank to known volumes. Overall pretty simple. The aluminum tape strips won't work on metal tanks so the company provides dip tube style sensors which can be installed instead. The 37+ has a metal fuel tank and a metal water tank in the v-birth. The company also has an option for propane tanks (or any other tank) which are already equipped with a 0 to 300 ohm output. Just wire it up and calibrate. The head unit can accommodate 8 tanks. Fuel, water, sewage, propane, etc. Josh Muckley S/V Sea Hawk 1989 C&C 37+ Solomons, MD On Tue, Oct 2, 2018, 6:59 PM Edd Schillay via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > Josh, > > I would be very interested in hearing how you installed this, including > access to the tank sides to mount the sensors. > > All the best, > > Edd > > --------------------------------------- > Edd M.
