Why AG-RS485

Precision Fuel Data
No Moving Parts

Sub-mm Resolution
Detects fuel level changes below 1mm. Calculate exact litres consumed per hour for genset fuel efficiency tracking.
No Mechanical Wear
Capacitive technology has zero moving parts. No floats to jam or corrode — works reliably for years in harsh fuel environments.
IP67 Sealed
Fully waterproof probe rated for complete immersion. Safe for outdoor fuel tanks, rain, and condensation environments.
Theft Detection
Sudden drop in fuel level outside of engine runtime triggers a theft alarm. Protect expensive diesel from siphoning at remote sites.
Cuttable Probe
Standard 700mm or 1000mm probe can be cut to match any tank depth. Custom lengths available from the manufacturer.
Proven on Gensets
Already integrated into MONIVA's Genset_monitor_OT.py via ttyS1 at 9600 baud. Plug-and-play with AV360-RS485 gateway.
