A71 Liquid Level Float Gauge:
Check this gauge when accepting a tank. It needs
to be in sound mechanical condition, legible, and
reading no higher than 85.
This gauge has a mechanical float that is coupled to
the indicator needle. Float gauges typically report
0-100 percent of fill.
Float gauges are typically mounted at tank top,
facing up, but may also be installed at 45
°, with face
tilted up, or horizontal, with face to front or side.
On a leased tank, learn the reading to expect when
the tank level reaches minimum-usable. It may be
an indication above, at, or even below zero.
The gauge reading may be inaccurate if the tank is
on a slope, or has just been moved (due to
sloshing).
