AVTECH
AVTECH's Fuel Tank Level Sensor monitors the rise and fall of fuel or other harsh liquids
in a container, while AVTECH's Water Tank Level Sensor monitors the rise and fall of
water in a container. The float switches and control weights are composed of chemically-
resistant polypropylene; the 16' cables are coated with rugged PVC. Because these sensors
have a dual-point switch and differential height between switch states, you can use just one
sensor to monitor two levels (high and low).

Tank Level Sensor Features
Switch States
AVTECH offers normally closed (NC) and normally open (NO) versions of the Water Tank
and Fuel Tank Level Sensors.
The "normal" state for these sensors is the float switch face in the downward position,
meaning low or no liquid in the tank. In the NO type, down = open. In the NC type, down
= closed.
