Tank Electrode 12-24 K
Tank Electrode 15-50 K
According to Drinking Water Ordinance DIN 2001-2
The tank transmitter had been designed for precise level measuring of fresh water tanks, sewage water tanks
and feces tanks of plastic and metal material in campers, caravans and boats.
Measurement of the level is effected fully-automatically without mechanically moving parts according to the
capacitive method of measurement, and it is transferred to the display unit via a three-core cable.
The electronic system is completely sealed. Thus, it is extremely robust and insensitive to soiling.
Tank measuring sensor, suitable and required for VOTRONIC tank displays, 1 piece per tank:

For remote level measurement, the tank electrode
is installed directly at the tank. It is suitable for:
• Fresh water (if applicable, please observe the
Guidelines for Drinking-Water Quality DIN
2001-2)
• Sewage water, grey water
• Feces sewage water
• Plastic tanks, any material
• Metal tanks (aluminium, steel, stainless steel,
etc.)
• Adjustable to tank heights:
12 to 24 cm or 15 cm to 50 cm.
Functioning:
The level in the tank is measured capacitively. The
insulated stick (probe) and the surrounding water
form a kind of "capacitor", the size of which is
growing with the level, and which is measured by
the electronic system. The contact to the water as
"antipole" is effected by a stainless steel stick.

Summary of Contents for Votronic 5543

  • Page 1 The electronic system is completely sealed. Thus, it is extremely robust and insensitive to soiling. Tank measuring sensor, suitable and required for VOTRONIC tank displays, 1 piece per tank: Tank Display Units: Order No.
  • Page 2 - 2 - Preliminary Installation: The tank electrode is designed for vertical installation from the tank top. In contrast to sewage water and feces tanks (deposit), an installation at the lower side of the tank is also possible. The tank electrode should be placed at the topmost location and in the tank centre. Mounting hole, diameter 38 mm, or thread PG29.
