STEP 1: Attaching The Sensor To Your Tank’s Dial
The Tank Utility remote level monitor can be
installed on all tanks equipped with a
Remote-Ready Dial.
If your Remote-Ready Dial has a black dust cap,
you will first need to remove it by simultaneously
pulling up on the tab while sliding the dust cap
out of the dial.
If applicable, route the cable through the
hole in the tank’s collar or lid.
Slide the sensor into the dial slot until
you feel it click.

DIAL REPLACEMENT
Tank Utility sells and supports the installation of replacement Remote-Ready
Dials. For propane tanks, this upgrade can often be completed without
depressurizing the tank. Professional installation by a delivered fuel professional
is recommended.
Go to http://www.tankutility.com/support to make sure the Tank Utility
Monitor is compatible with your tank.
STEP 2: Turn Your Monitor On And Prompt A Reading
Hold the activation magnet (attached to the
cable) to the activation pad (denoted by the
magnet icon) on the monitor for 3 seconds,
then remove. You will then see 3 LEDs blink aqua
blue. This will turn the monitor on and send a
reading.
The LEDs will flash in succession as the
monitor attempts to send a reading. When
all 3 LEDs are solid aqua blue, a reading
was sent successfully.
NOTE: It may take up to five minutes to
establish cellular connection.
Please refer to the “Troubleshooting”
section of this guide if your monitor
shows any red LEDs.
Successful reading confirmation
shown by 3 solid aqua blue LEDs.
Hold the magnet to the
activation pad.

FOR BELOW GROUND TANKS
It is best to securely attach the monitor
to the top of the lid. If the lid is not metal,
use the included self-tapping screws to
attach the mounting bracket to the
non-metal lid to provide a place for
magnet mounting.
STEP 3: Mount The Monitor
NOTE: Do not place the tank monitor under a steel lid or inside the collar since this
can prevent the monitor from connecting to the cellular network.
The underside of the monitor has two protruding magnetic feet which can be
used to mount the monitor on either the tank or the lid.
FOR ABOVE GROUND TANKS
On horizontal tanks, mount the
monitor on top of the tank.
On vertical tanks, mount the monitor
with the cable pointing downwards.

STEP 4: Configure The Device In The Tank Utility Portal
Your monitor is already associated with your
Tank Utility account. To edit the details of
the monitor, go to http://portal.tankutility.com
and login with your credentials.
Your monitor will appear in the portal
when a reading is sent. You can identify the
monitor with the 8 digit ID number on the
back of your device.
6
Troubleshooting Setup
When the monitor is prompted to send a reading each LED will blink in succession.
Each LED will turn aqua blue when the corresponding step is completed. If a problem is
encountered, the LED will turn red.
CELL SIGNAL STRENGTH SUCCESSFUL READINGBATTERY VOLTAGE
The batteries need
to be replaced.
The monitor cannot connect
to the cellular network because
the signal is not strong enough.
The monitor has not
received a confirmation
of a successful reading.
To Turn Off The Tank Monitor
This will prevent the monitor from
sending additional readings. Hold the
activation magnet over the activation
pad for approximately 15 seconds until
all 3 LEDs are red. Remove the activation
magnet while all 3 LEDs are red.
