Varec Float & Tape Tank Gauges

Varec Float & Tape Tank Gauges use mechanical float-and-tape instruments to measure liquid level in bulk storage tanks.

As the product level rises or falls, a float follows the liquid surface and transfers movement through a tape or cable mechanism to an external counter, indicator tube, or gaugeboard.

The solution may be configured for tank-side indication alone or paired with compatible transmitters and spot temperature sensing when electronic level data, temperature data, or control-room integration is required.

Gauge, installation kit, transmitter, and sensor selections depend on the tank type, service pressure, stored liquid, and communication requirements.

Key Characteristics

Mechanical float-and-tape or float-and-cable liquid-level measurement
Tank-side indication using a dial-and-counter gauge head, clear indicator tube, or gauge board
Configurations for atmospheric, low-pressure, and high-pressure bulk storage tanks
Installation options for fixed-roof, floating-roof, bolted, spherical, and horizontal cylindrical tanks, depending on the selected model
Optional electronic level transmission and spot temperature integration using compatible Varec components

Ideal Applications

Measuring liquid level in bulk storage tanks
Providing tank-side level indication without requiring a powered local display
Gauging fixed-roof, floating-roof, bolted, spherical, or horizontal cylindrical tanks with the appropriate model and installation kit
Transmitting mechanical tank-gauge data to a control room through a compatible Float & Tape Transmitter
Integrating liquid-level and spot-temperature measurements for inventory-management calculations
