Nex•U•® U•tank
Provides real-time inventory control, reducing concerns about running out of inventory or used fluid tanks overflow.
Part No.:
U·tank is a monitor module capable of controlling two tanks using digital or analog level gauges. Can be connected to solenoid valves to control pump operation, and to external warning devices.
U·tank has two independent graphic displays and level bars, where the inventory available in each tank can be checked. It also has a set-up keypad for inventory adjustment if required (1).
The number of input and output ports are:
• One analog input per tank for a pressure probe with 4-20 mA or 0-10V
• Three digital inputs per tank for a low, intermediate or high-level probe (1)
• One output per tank for a solenoid valve to control air supply to each pump
• One output per tank for an electro-pneumatic valve to prevent tank overfill
• One output for controlling an air solenoid valve to stop the air supply to all pumps when the workshop is closed
• One output per tank for controlling a flash warning light or an acoustic alarm
U·tank supports CAN BUS wired communication with other NEX·U·® system components plus Wi-Fi® with optional CAN BUS to Wi-Fi® converter.
(1) The use of digital probes does not allow real-time inventory monitoring. NEX·U·® will use declining balance for inventory control and will require manual inventory adjustment when fluid is supplied to the tank.
Only for connection with U·dat, U·valve, or an adjacent U·meter. Requires a 24 V DC solenoid valve.
