HiLo Tank and Trough Level Sensors

This highly accurate radar sensor is the master of tank management and designed to measure liquid levels in water tanks and troughs.

This sensor will help to:

  • Monitor tank levels with accuracy
  • Identify leaks, blockages and pump failures
  • Reduce time travelling to check tank levels

With internet connectivity you can:

  • Remotely access data from your smartphone, tablet or computer
  • Receive notifications for high, low and rapidly changing levels
  • Manage multiple tanks and share access with one another

Provisioning Instructions

To provision a device, please provide the following information by emailing it to info@axistech.co

  1. Sensor name (typically the name of the location or tank name)
  2. Location (latitude/longitude)
  3. Offset (configuration instructions below)
  4. Sensor Display Limits, Minimum and Maximum level (configuration instructions below)
 

Configure the Offset

  1. Go to the Sensors -> Select the Sensor -> Sensor Setup Tab -> Display Settings Section
  2. Switch Offset Enabled to Yes;
  3. Fill the offset value in the Offset input field, the unit is indicated between the brackets next to Offset; the value should be the distance between the sensor and your chosen water level (0 water level could be the bottom of a water container, the Mean Sea Level, etc.);
  4. Click the Update button to confirm;

If the configuration is working, the offset value will be displayed in the Configuration section on the sensor’s information page. Please provide the offset value to us.

 

Configuring the Display Limits

The display limits of a sensor are the soft limits between which the water level will be displayed.

A sensor has two display limits – Minimum Level and Maximum Level. More particularly, if the water level is at or below the minimum level, the water level percentage will be 0% whereas if it is at the maximum level, the percentage will be 100%.

Admins and the owner of the organisation can configure the display limits in the following way:

  1. Go to the Sensors -> Sensor Setup Tab -> Display Settings.
  2. You’ll need to enable the Offset to access this feature.
  3. Make sure the Offset input field is filled. Read more about setting up the offset.
  4. Under the title Display Limits, put the Minimum display limit on the left input field while the Maximum on the right.
  5. Please provide us with the two display limits and click the Update button to confirm.

A radar level monitor installed on the top of your tank sends readings to your phone via the local mobile cellular network. For eg. Telstra You can download the HiLo app from Google Play or the App Store. It’s super-simple to set up, whatever kind of smartphone you have.

 

Data Management
With our AxisStream data management system, all of your HiLo data can be ingested, standardised to a uniform data model (industry or global standard) and stored in one data store that is controlled and owned by you. This well-organised and well-structured data can then be consumed in multiple ways including visualisation, insights and analysis.
