**This evaluation determined the sensor's responses to the liquids shown above. Biodiesel blends B6-B20 meeting ASTM D7467 and biodiesel B100 meeting ASTM D6751 would also produce an alarm if the sensor threshold is exceeded. Responses to these fuels were not determined, but would be expected to be very similar to the diesel responses.
Comments
Comparison of Tank Sentinel TS-1001/TS-2001 and TS-5xxx series consoles with Tank Sentinel TS-1000 (including EFI) /TS-2000 series consoles showed comparable results when evaluated with representative sensors. Sensors are reusable.
