Fuel sensors. Q&A.

What is a fuel sensor signal booster? Do you have a fuel sensor signal booster?
The Mielta Technology equipment line includes a wireless interface converter (WIC), designed to operate from a constant voltage source from 5 to 40 volts as part of a parameter monitoring system for wireless sensors using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology for data transmission.

The receiving module of some low budget trackers leaves much to be desired. WIC Mielta Technology were specially created by our developers to function in tandem with FLS Mielta. The presence of WIC in the fuel monitoring system allows you to increase the distance to the sensor and stabilize the quality of the FLS signal even in difficult operating conditions.

Is it possible to somehow to check the shielding system?
To ensure the operation of the fuel level sensor in difficult conditions, the developers of Mielta Technology implemented the "black box" function. Even if the radio communication is interrupted for some time, the data on the fact of sabotage will be stored in a "black box" and can be uploaded to the configurator program.

Reinsurance: 4 or 6 sensor mounting points?
The Fantom sensor has 4 mounting points. At the same time, the developers of Mielta have provided a flange connection to the tank, which provides ease of installation. The four mounting points of the steel flange allow the sensor to be tightly fixed even on the uneven surface of the fuel tank. If there are six mounting points, mounting the sensor with a rigid flange on an uneven surface of the tank will be difficult.

Is it possible to improve the quality of communication by increasing the power of the transmitter?
The transmitter power parameter can be in the range from 0 to 49. The default value is 24. Increasing the power of the transmitter in some situations can improve the quality of communication. However, the location of the FLS and the receiving terminal relative to each other and shielding metal structures has a much greater impact on the quality of communication. An increase in transmission power also leads to increased electricity consumption.

How is the fuel level sensor configured?

To configure the Fantom fuel sensor, the Mielta Device Manager configurator program is used, available for free in the Google Play and App Store app stores.
