Victron GX Tank140 - Interface for tank level sensors

GX Tank 140

The GX Tank 140 records readings from up to four tank level sensors. It is an accessory for our range of GX system monitoring products, of which the Cerbo GX is the most widely used model.

The tank levels can be read both locally in the system (see screenshot) and remotely via our VRM portal.

The GX Tank is compatible with both current sensors (4 to 20 mA) and voltage sensors (0 to 10 V). The GX device connects via USB, which also powers the GX Tank. No additional power cables are required.

The wiring of the tank sender is kept as simple as possible: Two of the four inputs provide a 24 V power supply for the transmitter. The other two channels require an external power supply, for which a mains connection with fused outputs is provided.

The upper and lower limits are configurable to allow the use of transmitters that provide only a partial range, such as 0 to 5 V.

To obtain a stable measurement, the measured values ​​are damped using an averaging method. The damping can be configured between 1 and 60 seconds.

Defective sensors and wiring problems are detected. An alarm is triggered if the values ​​are outside the permissible range.

In marine applications, the GX device can transmit these tank levels to other displays, such as an MFD, via the NMEA 2000 network.
