Common questions

How does the monitor measure the level in my tank?
HiLo Tank Monitors use a radar to track the distance to the water surface from the top of the tank. During the setup process, you enter the dimensions of your tank and this is used to give you a % level or volume in Litres.
Why are radar monitors better than traditional cable and probe based monitors?
Probe-based monitors have a realistic life of a maximum of 3 years before they need replacing. All probe-based monitors suffer from some degradation over time, therefore, manufacturers normally recommend routine cleaning and specify a routine 3 year replacement. Probe based sensors can't be used in dirty water, sludge, or corrosive chemical situations due to corrosion or fouling.
How many tanks can I have on my app?
There is no limit to the number of tanks you can have in your app. Once you have more than 10, a search feature appears to allow you to quickly find the tank you are looking for.
Can my staff have the app on their phone?
Of course. You can invite as many staff or other users as you need. It's easy to do this from the app, but if you find it tricky, our support staff can help you.
Can I change the battery?
Yes, the battery is easily replaceable and can be ordered from us at a cost of $55 + postage.
How do I know if I have coverage at my tank?
Our monitors use LTE-M1 provided by the {{}} network. If you're not sure if you have 4G mobile coverage at your tank, feel free to share your tank location with us and we can check for you.
Do I need to be in line-of-sight with my tank to check the level?
No, once you have set your monitor up, you can check the level from anywhere you have internet access.
How often do I get level updates?
Your tank monitor will check the level every 15 minutes. If it detects an alert level, it will notify you straight away. Otherwise, you'll get a full picture of what's happened in the tank every 6 hours. If you need to, you can reduce this time to 4 or 2 hours but this will reduce the life of your battery. You can change the update rate easily in the app.
