The intended use is to accurately measure a level of liquids in pressureless containers. E.g. water cisterns, tank contents, etc. Liquid-Check was developed on the basis of the valid safety guidelines and built for use in European countries. The electronic measuring system "Liquid-Check" allows the measurement of liquid levels. By specifying the shape of the container and the dimensions, the conversion into litres is also car- ried out.
Using the specified container shape parameters, Liquid-Check can also determine the volume content. Liquid-Check does not have to be attached directly to the container to be measured, but can be mounted for example in the nearby technical room. For the measurement, only a thin hose connection to the container or tank is required.
(See page 7). In advance, you can also check the Wi-Fi connection to your router with your mobile phone. After a good position has been found, mount the Liquid-Check module with the enclosed fastening material. When drilling the dowel holes, pay attention to any cables or pipes that may be laid in the wall.
Electrical connection of the Liquid-Check The Liquid-Check is powered by a plug-in power supply, which is included in the scope of delivery. The power supply has a micro-USB connector, which is plugged into the bottom of the case. Overview Operating functions Since all parameters of the liquid check are set and read via the local web interface, the module itself has only the most necessary operating functions.
Connecting to the Liquid Check After successful WPS or guest (Gast) login, you can connect to the web interface of the Liquid-Check via a popular internet browser (e.g. Goggle-Chrom, Firefox, MS-Edge, Opera, Safari). If your router supports a...
Setting/viewing the parameters Under the heading <Einstellungen> various parameters can be entered. These are: Wi-Fi connection data: Access data to the Wi-Fi network and the host name that the module can usually use to access the module by pre-http:// in the web browser. Tank: (Shape-parameters) The length, height or diameter of the container to be measured, these are usually self- explanatory.
Tank-Shapes From the measurement of the height of the liquid, the volume can be determined in litres. To do this, the tank shape used and the corresponding dimensions must be entered. Standard tank shapes Various geometric shapes are available here. - Box - Ball - Cylinder standing...

Liquid-Check Cloud Liquid-Check powerd by Grafana For recording your readings, "Liquid-Check" has an interface to our web portal. Our server uses the visualization software "Grafana". Here your levels and quantities can be stored and displayed graphically (see picture). With your personal login, you have the possibility to monitor the graphics in another location via PC web browser or mobile phone.
