The TD-150-BLE is a wired FLS with bluetooth transmission and configuration capability. The sensor data is transmitted in the form of Bluetooth packets in '''Advertising''' '''mode'''; the frequency of data sending is every second. The frequency of fuel level sensor measurement is also every second. | The TD-150-BLE is a wired FLS with bluetooth transmission and configuration capability.

If it is not possible to install the sensor in the center of the tank, consider installing two sensors diagonally at two corners. When fuel flows to one side of the tank, the level on the corresponding sensor will rise, and on the opposite side, the level will correspondingly decrease, while the average level will remain unchanged. | If it is not possible to install the sensor in the center of the tank, consider installing two sensors diagonally at two corners.

<blockquote>'''Attention:''' Before starting the calibration, the vehicle/fuel tank must be positioned flat in relation to the horizon, i.e. on a level surface without a slope.</blockquote>If the tank has an irregular geometric shape, the sensor must be installed at the maximum depth of the tank, closer to the geometric center. | <blockquote>'''Attention:''' Before starting the calibration, the vehicle/fuel tank must be positioned flat in relation to the horizon, i.e. on a level surface without a slope.</blockquote>If the tank has an irregular geometric shape, the sensor must be installed at the maximum depth of the tank, closer to the geometric center. | ||
