Introduction to the Product

The sensor ESCORT TD-150 determines the fill level of light oils in reservoirs (storage tanks). It is used as a fuel sensor in the automotive engineering field, and also as a level sensor for any light oils in industrial applications. The sensor converts the calculated fuel level into a digital code, frequency, or analog signals. It is a complete, finished solution.

To ensure explosion protection, it is necessary to connect a resistor of the appropriate rating to the power supply circuit. The presence of a resistor depends on the scope of delivery.
