Instruction Manual

Nov 2018

Description

The TM1 Remote Tank level Monitor consists of a self contained battery operated

cellular transceiver fitted into an enclosure with batteries, having a submersible

pressure transducer attached, that is lowered into a tank of liquid to be monitored for

level.

The plastic enclosure has a lower threaded mounting at its base that allows it to be

fitted through a hole atop a tank, or onto an external flange.

A chemical resistant cable extends from the sensor to a lower entry point in the TM1

underbody.

A set of three “D” cells are enclosed that power the electronics and the Cellular modem.

The TM1 utilizes the LTE CAT M1 service provided by Verizon Wireless in the USA that

operates in the 750 MHz cellular 4G band.

The TM1 can be used to send a tank level report over the cellular link at repeated time intervals and on a schedule. The number of reports can be altered by command but is typically set to once every 4 hours. Contact your supplier, agent or FLEET data service provider for changes to reporting schedules and times. The data packet it sends is only several hundred bytes in length and includes pressure reading, battery health, temperature and signal level information.

Servicing the TM1 From time to time, depending on the reporting frequency, local cell tower signal strength and climatic conditions, the three “D” cell batteries will require replacement. (i) If the TM1 is in a Hazardous location, remove it to a safe location first. (ii) Then insert the magnetic Keeper. (iii) Remove the four screws holding the base and the upper cover using a Philips screwdriver.
