Complete system Manage your tanks

On the sensors there are strips of tape that are provided to attach the sensors directly onto the surface of your tank. All necessary cables and plugs needed to connect the sensors and panel with the control unit and to external systems are included. • Gobius panel shows the fl uid level • Start/stop pumps • Level information to your information system • Level control of your tanks

Very quick installation

Gobius is the fi rst level indicator in the world that measures the con-tents of tanks in stainless steel, steel, aluminum, plastic and fi bre glass from the OUTSIDE. Gobius is reliable, regardless of the tank’s size, shape, or amount of deposit on the inside of the tank wall.Level indication conducted from the outside of the tank means contact free measurement. The advantages of this is highly appre- ciated by the pharmaceutical, chemical and food industries, where demands on handling of corrosive and sterile liquids are very high.

• Quick to install and very easy to use • Coloured lamps show the current fl uid at 4 levels • Automatic calibration • Relay driven output • Automatically checking the level • Easy to integrate with other systems (4-20 mA) • Very low electricity consumption

The Gobius Technology (patented) Very easy to calibrate

Level indicator Gobius is based on our innovative Gobius Technology, best described as ”knock and listen”. Every sensor that is placed onto the tank wall consists of a shaker and an accelerometer. When the shaker creates a vibration in the tank wall, the accelerator measures the size of the vibration and passes the data on to the control unit. Each sensor is only 26 mm high with a diameter of 70 mm. No tanks look the same. There are always differences in e.g. size, construction, thickness and age. In order to compensate for these differences you have to calibrate the tank before you start to use your Gobius. However, the calibration only takes a few seconds, all you need to do is to press a button while the tank is full or empty.

Very low electricity consumption, less than 40 mA (12 volts)

Gobius is constructed to minimise electricity consumption and is extremely effi cient. Gobius sends power to its sensors in impulses instead of a continuous supply.
