Installation and Operating Manual
Level Measuring Sensor for Diesel Fuel Tanks
Executions with switchable output voltage signal: 0-2.3 V and industrial standard signal 0-10 V:
Tank Sensor Diesel 010-250
Tank Sensor Diesel 010-350
Tank Sensor Diesel 010-500
Executions with current standard signal 4-20 mA:
Tank Sensor Diesel 420-250
Tank Sensor Diesel 420-350
Tank Sensor Diesel 420-500
Operation and Safety Instructions:
The VOTRONIC Tank Sensor Diesel had been designed exclusively for
operation with Diesel fuel!
Operation with other combustible or explosive liquids or water and hydrous
liquids is not admissible!
The VOTRONIC Tank Sensor Diesel has been particularly designed for tank control of auxiliary tanks,
extension tanks and special tanks in intervention vehicles, high-quality campers, as well as in the marine field. It
allows exact electric remote measurement of the tank levels.
Suitable for Plastic and Metal Tanks
Free installation, even subsequently, at the upper side of the tank
No mechanically moved parts, fully electronic capacitive measuring method
Linear, continuous signal of the level
The electronic system is sealed waterproof and vibration-proof
Independent of pressure, no falsification of measured values in case of pressure filling etc.
Protection against reverse battery, overvoltage, short-circuit and overload
Safety through internal test procedures being executed continuously.
Type: Tank Sensor Diesel 010:
Voltage output (3-wire) switchable: Standard signal 0-10 V or 0-2.3 V
for connection of different display and evaluation units:
Setting 0-10 V: VOTRONIC LED Tank Display HE10
Setting 0-2.3 V: VOTRONIC Tank Display Diesel
The powerful output of the sensor allows simultaneous connection of several display and evaluation units,
such as:
4 Pieces VOTRONIC LED Tank Displays HE10 and additionally
1 Piece Switching Unit VOTRONIC Multiswitch FW
Type: Tank Sensor Diesel 420:
Current output (2-wire) with industrial standard signal 4-20 mA
for connection of different display and evaluation units:
VOTRONIC LED Tank Display HE420
External units, such as pointer indicators, board computers, 4-20 mA measuring transmitters etc.
Tank Height 15-25 cm, 12 V/24 V, 0-2.3 V and 0-10 V
Tank Height 15-35 cm, 12 V/24 V, 0-2.3 V and 0-10 V
Tank Height 15-50 cm, 12 V/24 V, 0-2.3 V and 0-10 V
Tank Height 15-25 cm, 12 V/24 V, 4-20 mA
Tank Height 15-35 cm, 12 V/24 V, 4-20 mA
Tank Height 15-50 cm, 12 V/24 V, 4-20 mA
VOTRONIC Multiswitch FW
External units, such as pointer indicators, board computers, measuring transmitters etc.
VOTRONIC LCD Tank Monitor 4

Summary of Contents for Votronic 5586

  • Page 1 Operation with other combustible or explosive liquids or water and hydrous liquids is not admissible! The VOTRONIC Tank Sensor Diesel has been particularly designed for tank control of auxiliary tanks, extension tanks and special tanks in intervention vehicles, high-quality campers, as well as in the marine field. It allows exact electric remote measurement of the tank levels.
  • Page 2 --2-- Installation at the Tank: The sensor is designed for vertical installation viewed from the tank top. The sensor should be placed at the topmost location and in the tank centre. Use a conventional circular cutter to drill a hole of a diameter of 63 ± 0.5 mm at this location. Adaptation of the probe to the existing tank height: Shorten the probe with a commercially...
  • Page 3 Tank Display with Voltage Input 0-10 V b. VOTRONIC Tank Displays (Set Rotary Encoder to “Output 0-2.3 V”): The connections to the VOTRONIC Tank Displays are marked with the figures “1”, “4” and “5”, and their Battery – assignment is the following:...
  • Page 4 Start-up: Set the rotary encoder to the position of the desired output signal using a small screw-driver: 0-2.3 V: This signal is used for VOTRONIC Tank Displays, such as “Tank Display Diesel”, LCD Tank Monitor 4” etc. Tank empty = 0 V, linear increase up to tank full = 2.3 V.
  • Page 5 10.3 V – 32 V Operating Voltage Range: Current Consumption: 7 mA Output Signal adjustable: 0 - 2.3 V (for VOTRONIC Tank Displays) or 0 - 10 V (Industrial Standard Signal) Load Resistor at the Output: Minimum 1,000 Ohms to max. infinite Built-in Diameter:...
  • Page 6 Load resistor of the display 0 Ohm to max. (operating voltage -7 V) / 20 mA such as for 11.0 V operating voltage: (11,0 V – 7 V) / 20 mA = max. 250 Ohms a. Display Ground Side: such as for VOTRONIC Tank Display “LED Tank Display HE 420” b. Tank Sensor Ground Side:...
  • Page 7 4-20 mA: This signal is a standard signal for industrial applications of any kind. Among other things, it is used for the VOTRONIC Tank Display “LED Tank Display HE 420”. Tank empty = 4 mA, linear increase up to tank full = 20 mA.
  • Page 8: Safety Regulations

    We do not assume any liability for any damage resulting hereof. The liability exclusion is extended to any service being executed by third, which has not been ordered by us in writing. Service is to be effected exclusively by VOTRONIC Lauterbach/Germany.
