Tank Monitor Sensors

I was poking around behind the coroplast underbelly of my 2021 Arctic Fox, preparing to order a SeeLevel system. I was a bit surprised by the factory tank sensors. I had always pictured the sensors as being uniformly spaced up the side of the tank, but that is not the case here. No wonder the monitor results are always strange!


In the photos the pink is insulation under the black tank. The other photo is of a grey tank.

Took years to figure out what "1/3" and "2/3" really meant on our four tanks. On our fresh tank, 1/3 meant "don't even think of taking a shower."

I sent the pictures to Northwood. They got back to me very promptly. Where the lowest probes are very close, apparently one is a probe and the other is a ground.

The fellow did not address why the spacing on the actual sensors was so irregular.
