Questions & Answers
There appears to be inches of liquid in the picture. You can use the online chart to calculate the number of gallons or you can calculate the number by hand.
A gauge measures the distance from empty to one inch.
This device was purchased and installed by myself. I chose it based on its simplicity and its ability to work. If by potentiometer you are referring to an electric addition to the device, then no, as there is no singing electron in this product. Purely mechanical, it has no moving parts. In the case you are asking if it could be modified to measure tanks higher than 99" will accommodate, the answer is kind It will only be able to go from 00 to 24 Adding an extension chain (or wire) segment will cause the device to read 99 inches to empty, when the tank is full, but the float must decrease some number of inches down to its maximum level before the the tank is entirely full. As it turned out, my installation was the same as yours. The gauge registers 85" from overflow to empty when it is full. The extension chain allows me to get a reading of 99 when there is an overflow/full level in the tank by adding a 14" extension. I hope this has answered your question.
Anyway, it seems to be working fine for me out door, I like it.

I searched for a simple fix, but found one. Two weeks ago, I had it installed and I have noticed that the float sticks quite frequently. It has been a very disappointing experience. Despite the slightly domed top of my 1,000 gallon water tank, I made sure I installed the gauge vertically, which wasn't easy to do. My experience in the petroleum industry had given me a great deal of familiarity with Husky products, so I felt comfortable buying them. I'm bummed out. I've updated version 8 of the article -- The floating float would be stuck in a down position, so I considered that possibility. In other words, when the tank was being drawn down, the float would hang up even though it was moving. My initial thought was that the chain I had cut off per the instructions (72" tall tank) might have been enough weight to affect the retractor spring in the meter and keep the float from dropping. Using a digital scale and weighing the cut chain, I determined its weight to be This is five As a result, I zipped- Adding an 8 gram hex nut to the chain right above the float and tying it to the bottom. In the intervening years, it hasn't stuck. I just wanted to remind you to update your instructions.
Water of this quality is the best This is the only level gage I've found for rain water tanks. It won't let you down in the least. Please take note of the following cautionary note It might not be a good idea to follow the mounting instructions precisely. In order to obtain accurate readings, the owner must cut the wire holding the floater to a length that will allow the gauge to read how many inches of water are left in the tank (99 inches is the maximum). As long as you don't plan to upgrade your tank to a taller one, all is well. This would result in the wire being too short, and the gage would be As it would not be cost effective for me to shorten my wire, I chose not to do so. Now my gauge reads 99" when full, and 50" when empty (yes, the water column in my tank is exactly 49" high). I can figure out what the numbers mean since I know what they mean. Therefore, I should not have to shorten the wire to have the gauge read 49" when full and 0" when empty, and I should be able to upgrade to the new 88"-long gauge next summer. The tallest tank in the world. The pros are This tank level gauge is durable, accurate, and easy to install. It can be used with any water tank that can hold a 2 1/4"-by-8 1/4" plate The top of the bottle has a hole, made in the U. S. A. The cons are The price is a bit high for what you get.
This unit worked well until about a week ago, when it broke down. I don't know why, but the tension spring got stuck. This prevents the slack chain from retracting back inside of In an email to Husky, they assure me that the 12-pack is in stock It said that my six-month warranty had expired and that I would have to pay for shipping and parts if I wanted them to repair it. It was disappointing to see that this relatively expensive ($150) and sturdy product failed so quickly and that Husky did not do something a little more to improve the product. I am unable to say whether it was a one-time thing I wonder if this is a common occurrence or if this is a defect in the unit. Approximately four weeks ago, I did buy a Black Knight for another tank, and I sincerely hope it is not one of We will all know about 18 months from now whether or not this is true. As an example.
The job has already been terminated after a.

The product was received on time with no problems, and worked exactly as expected.
