What This Model Is For
The FT-0024 is a wireless ultrasonic tank liquid level meter with 8 or 16 channel capacity, designed to measure liquid level in tanks without physical contact. It transmits readings to a console or gateway every 10 seconds over a 433MHz RF link, using ultrasonic pulses to calculate distance to the liquid surface. The unit is suitable for industrial, agricultural and commercial applications where wired sensors are impractical or costly to install. It supports multiple tank configurations through channel selection and can be deployed in series for monitoring several tanks from one console.
- Non-contact measurement using ultrasonic pulses avoids contamination and wear
- 8 or 16 channel options allow monitoring of multiple tanks from one device
- 433MHz RF transmission reaches up to 100m in open air without a gateway
- 10 second update interval provides timely level data without delay
- No trenching or cabling needed, reducing installation time and cost

Where It Is Used
- Industrial storage tanks in chemical and water treatment facilities
- Agricultural irrigation reservoirs where wired sensors are not feasible
- Cold chain and refrigerated storage where wiring risks condensation
- Remote water tanks in rural or off-grid locations
- Multi-tank monitoring in food processing or beverage production
Who It Is For
- Industrial tank and liquid level monitoring integrators
- Agricultural and horticultural equipment suppliers
- Building services and HVAC integrators for water storage
- Distributors needing a wireless tank monitor for own-label branding
- Marine and pool equipment brands requiring non-contact level sensing
Problems It Solves
- Wired sensors that require trenching and are vulnerable to corrosion
- Manual tank checks that miss low-level alerts and cause overflows
- Contact sensors that degrade in corrosive or viscous liquids
- Single-tank monitoring when multiple tanks need tracking
- RF links that fail over distance or through walls in large facilities
Technical Features
- Ultrasonic sensor measures liquid level using time-of-flight of sound pulses
- 8 or 16 channel selection allows multiple tank monitoring
- Transmission interval of 10 seconds for timely updates
- 433MHz RF link with range up to 100m in open air
- Measures liquid level from 0 to 3000mm with 1mm resolution
- Operates in ambient temperatures from -20 to +60 degrees C
- Supports non-conductive liquids such as water, oil, and chemicals
- Battery-powered with 4 x AAA cells, not included

Ultrasonic transducers are calibrated before final housing
Housings are sealed and tested on rainfall and waterproof test equipment
Every unit undergoes a final ageing test before packing
Quality Control
- Rainfall and waterproof testing on the assembled unit
- Constant temperature and humidity chamber runs covering -20 to +60 degrees C
- Vibration testing to simulate transport and site mounting
- Smog ageing to assess housing and seal durability
- Final ageing test on every unit before packaging
Customisation Options
- Own-label printing and retail packaging
- Console pairing to a customer's existing UCTECH-protocol display
- Alternative battery configurations on request
- Manual and quick start guide in the destination language
Compared With the Alternatives
vs Wired liquid level sensors
No cabling required, but limited to 100m range without a gateway
vs Float-based contact sensors
No moving parts or contact with liquid, reducing wear and contamination
vs LoRa-based tank monitors
433MHz is lower cost and sufficient for single-site monitoring; LoRa is better for long-range or multi-site networks
Use Guide
- Mount the sensor at the top of the tank, pointing straight down at the liquid surface
- Ensure no obstructions are between the sensor and the liquid surface
- Set the correct channel count (8 or 16) before installation
- Pair the sensor with the console before mounting
- Check the ultrasonic lens for dust or condensation at least once per season
FT-0024 8 or 16 channel Wireless Ultrasonic Tank Liquid Level Meter Questions
What is the real range between the sensor and the console
Up to 100m in open air. Through walls, metal, or dense materials, expect around 30m.
How often does it update the level reading
Every 10 seconds, which provides timely data without delay.
Can it measure multiple tanks at once
Yes, it supports 8 or 16 channels, allowing multiple tanks to be monitored from one device.
Does it work with liquids that conduct electricity
No. It is designed for non-conductive liquids such as water, oil, and most chemicals.
What is the lead time and minimum order
Tell us the quantity and target ship date and we will confirm both by email. Lead time depends on whether own-label printing and packaging are involved.
Which certifications does it carry
TBC. Ask us for the current certificate set for your destination market before you place the order.
