About the product
The MT Profil Fuel Tank Float Gauge from Afriso is a small mechanical clock gauge for measuring the tank’s contents by a float that sits on the fuel and goes up and down with the level. Whilst also popular for diesel storage tanks, it is most commonly used as a domestic heating oil tank gauge. The small display shows a scale of Empty 1⁄4, 1⁄2, 3⁄4 and Full for factory calibrated versions, allowing the user to quickly identify the approximate fuel tank level.
This oil tank level gauge is available in different versions depending upon the specific height of the fuel tank, or there is an 8'0 adjustable version. The 8'0 adjustable version of the MT Profil oil tank float gauge displays the level reading in cm, and has a reversible display which goes to 150cm max on one side, and 250cm max on the other.
These oil tank gauges are supplied as standard with 1 1⁄2” BSP Male for easy fitting on the top of the storage tank or drum. If your tank has a 2" BSP hole, you can fit this gauge by purchasing a 2" x 1 1/2" reducing bush (see accessories table). If your tank has a vent hole, you can connect the gauge by fitting a 2" barrel nipple into the hole and adding a combi vent cap which has a 1 1/2" BSP thread to screw in the gauge (see accessories table) to prevent an additional hole being drilled.

- Float type oil tank level indicator
- No power needed
- Easy to read

Oil heating engineers often refers to the process as a float on a rope, a clock gauge or cat and mouse gauge. This heating oil tank level gauge is a perfect solution for both commercial diesel and domestic oil heating tanks for a quick visual level check.

This oil tank float gauge is cost effective and provide a good ideation of the content levels, but it is not as accurate as some of the more sophisticated tank gauges. If a higher level of accuracy is desired you might need to consider some of our more advanced models such as Unitel gauge suitable for both diesel fuel and oil heating, Piusi Ocio fuel tank gauge perfect solution for diesel and Apollo oil heating tank gauge for heating oil.
My tank has a 2" hole, but this heating oil tank gauge is 1 1/2", how do I fit it?
If your tank has a 2" BSP threaded hole, you can fit this gauge by purchasing a 2" x 1 1/2" reducing bush (see accessories table). If your tank has a 2" open vent hole, you can connect the gauge by fitting a 2" barrel nipple into the hole and adding a combi vent cap which has a 1 1/2" BSP thread to screw in the gauge (see accessories table) to prevent an additional hole being drilled.
