Varec transmitters for float & tape tank gauges convert mechanical gauge movement into electrical signals for communication to control-room, automation, and inventory-management systems.
These devices mount to compatible mechanical tank gauges and extend tank-side level measurement beyond local mechanical indication.
Available models support different communication and integration requirements, ranging from loop-powered 4–20 mA level transmission to digital tank-gauging communications.
Depending on the selected model and configuration, capabilities may include tank-side display, temperature input, alarm or relay outputs, and connection of additional field devices.
