High Performance Tank Level Sender Kit
Tank level sender kits are solar-powered devices that measure water levels using a pressure sensor and transmit that data wirelessly to a keypad or gateway for real-time monitoring.
The core function of our range of high-performance tank level senders is to collect data from the pressure sensor and transmit this over the network to your WiFi LCD keypad or WiFi gateway. The tank sender is solar powered, which means once installe,d it will self-power and be virtually maintenance-free. If your installation means that the tank sender has no access to sunlight, there is a convenient charging port that allows the tank sender to be continuously powered by a 12VDC power supply (provided in the kit).
What Is a Tank Level Sender?
A tank level sender is a device used to measure the amount of water stored in a tank and transmit that information wirelessly to a monitoring system. It works by collecting data from a pressure sensor installed in the tank and sending accurate, real-time level readings to a keypad or gateway, allowing users to monitor water levels remotely and with confidence.
Tank level senders are commonly used on residential, rural, agricultural, and commercial water tanks where reliable level visibility is essential.
Meticulously designed for long-term use
We learned early on in the research and development phase that these tank-level senders are more often than not used in extreme environments. Every aspect of the design has been carefully thought through and engineered for long-term reliable operation. The shell of the tank sender is made from high UV resistance ASA plastic (as used in marine radome applications), the product is fully sealed, and the internal electronics are "potted" in high-performance gel to ensure complete moisture protection. The state-of-the-art ETFE 12BB monocrystalline solar panel delivers a huge punch from a very small surface area. This means that even in partially shaded conditions, the solar panel is effective at keeping the Lithium battery fully charged. All of this is topped off with our proprietary LoRa communications network, which has achieved ranges in excess of 25km during testing (line of sight).
"Complete" and "Limited" kit options are available
Smart Water offers both "Complete" and "Limited" tank level sender kits. What does this mean? The complete kit comes with everything you need to add another tank to your system. Simply follow the instructions to connect your tank level sender to the network, and then install it on your tank. The Limited kit contains the tank level sender only, with no pressure sensor included however, an antenna., mounting kit, and power supply is provided.

How Smart Water Tank Level Senders Work
Smart Water Technology tank level senders use a pressure sensor to calculate the water level inside the tank and transmit this data over a long-range wireless network to a WiFi LCD keypad or gateway.
The sender is solar powered, enabling continuous, maintenance-free operation once installed. For installations where sunlight is limited, the unit can also be powered using a 12VDC power supply. This ensures accurate and reliable tank level monitoring even in challenging or remote environments.
Tank Level Sender Kit Options
Smart Water offers two tank level sender kit options to suit different installation and system expansion needs.
1. Complete Tank Level Sender Kit
The Complete Tank Level Sender Kit includes everything required to add a new tank to your monitoring system.
- Includes pressure sensor
- Ideal for adding a new tank
- Everything required for installation
This option is best suited for new installations or when expanding a water tank monitoring setup.
2. Limited Tank Level Sender Kit
The Limited Tank Level Sender Kit is designed for replacement units or system expansions where a pressure sensor is not required.
- Sender only (no pressure sensor)
- Best for replacement or expansion
- Antenna, mounting kit, and power supply included
This kit provides a flexible solution for users who already have compatible pressure sensors in place.
