Installation location of high and low liquid level alarms for fuel tank at gas stations
Thread Content
What is the approximate installation location for the high and low liquid level alarms in a 30m3 gasoline station fuel tank (2400 mm in diameter * 7320 mm in length)?
Generally, it is set at 85% of the reserve amount as an overstatement

First, calculate the equivalent liquid level heights h1/h2 for the maximum flow rates into/out of the tank within 10–15 minutes. The high-level alarm value is given by H = D – (h1 + h3), while the low-level alarm value is L = h2 + h3. D represents the liquid level when the tank is at its maximum filling capacity, and h3 is a safety margin that can be set at 0.3 m
Set it yourself; choose the setting that feels most comfortable to you.
