Common Concerns Answered
Installation seems complex if a 2" port isn't available.
While a pre-existing 2" threaded port simplifies installation, the TD40 BLE - LR can also be mounted by cutting a precise 2" (50.8mm) diameter hole in the tank's top surface. Basic DIY skills are sufficient for this adaptation.
Do I need a special app to use this monitor?
Yes, the Mopeka TD40 BLE - LR requires a compatible mobile application, such as the 'Tank Check' or 'Co-Pilot' app, to view real-time fluid level readings and manage settings.
Will this work for pressurized tanks?
This Mopeka TD40 BLE - LR model is specifically designed for non-pressurized fluids only. It is not suitable for monitoring pressurized tanks.
