The Beckett Rocket 17000 system is an electronic gauge that accurately and reliably measures the fuel level in your oil tank and transmits that information to a wireless receiver located in a convenient place in your home. Installs in both basement and outside, above ground tanks. Takes 15 minutes to install. No wiring needed. Maintenance free, two year warranty.
RocketWireless Tank Gauge Operation
- The transmitter is mounted in an available opening in the tank and uses ultrasonic technology to measure the fuel level
- The Receiver plugs directly into a 120V outlet located in a convenient place in your home – usually the kitchen
- The LCD display on the Receiver displays the oil level as “bars”, where each bar represents approximately 10% of the tank’s capacity
- When the level goes below 20%, the fuel oil Nozzle “icon” appears in the LCD display, indicating that it is time to call for fuel delivery
Note: if you have an “automatic delivery” contract with your oil dealer, you should wait until the level drops to about 10% before alerting the dealer to your oil level status
When the oil level drops below 10% of the tank’s capacity, the red LED will begin flashing continuously and an audible signal will sound once every hour. Call your oil company immediately to schedule a delivery. These warning signals will continue until the first measurement is made following an oil delivery (this could take up to one hour after the delivery).
