Description
The BEP TS1 is an ultrasonic tank sender unit that has no moving parts and can be used in fuel tanks (petrol or diesel), freshwater, grey water or black water tanks. The TS1 can be used on any shape tank with a minimum depth of 200mm and a maximum depth of 2m. The unit operates on the same principle as a depth sounder and can be configured to be used in conjunction with BEP, Veethree, Faria, VDO and many other analogue gauges from most popular instrument manufacturers (not to be used with electronic gauges). It is suitable for top mount installations only. The low profile sender unit can be fitted in metal or plastic tanks, and is resistant to petrol, diesel, water and toilet chemicals. It has a 10-32V operating range and an operating temperature range of 4-65°C.
The TS1 sender unit is available in 2 configurations;
1. 113060 – TS1 sender unit non programmed. Suitable for OEM’s wishing to program their own units (113362 required).
2. 113361 – For retail sales, the TS1 is available as a fully programmed unit. Information relating to tank shape, size, fluid type and gauge type must be forwarded to BLA on the corresponding paper work available from the bla.com.au web site or from your BLA Territory Manager.
To complement the TS1 sender, Marinco® BEP produce the DCSM (113386 refer page 206), enabling the user to view tank level information for multiple tanks in numeric and graphic forms. Suitable for fuel, freshwater, grey water and black water.

N.B. The TS1 signal is not a true resistive signal and cannot be used with an electronic engine monitoring system.
The TS1 is ideally suited to analogue instruments that have a resistive range of 10-180ohm, 240-33ohm or 10-300ohm.
