CALCULATING TANK TILT (H2)
Use the worksheet below to record measurements and perform Tank Tilt calculations for each of the tanks.
1. Stick the tank at the fill riser opening at least three times. Record the average reading in column A of the chart.
2. Before beginning this step, make sure the Tank Tilt in the display above = 0. Record the probe’s Fuel Height (In-Tank
Inventory Function) reading in column B of the chart.
3. Subtract the value entered in column B from the value entered in column A. Record the result in column C.
4. Measure the distance in inches (or millimeters if you use Metric Units) between the probe and fill risers. Record the
measurement in column D.
5. Divide the value in column C by column D to determine the pitch. Record the results in column E.
6. Measure the distance in inches or millimetres from the probe riser to the center of the tank. Record the distance in column
F.
7.
Multiply column E by column F to determine Tank Tilt (E X F = Tank Tilt Value). Record the value in column G.
ENTERING THE TANK TILT VALUE
To enter the Tank Tilt value for the selected tank, press CHANGE. If the value is negative, press the +/- key so that
a minus (-) sign appears on the display. Enter the value as calculated according to the above procedures. Press
ENTER to confirm your entry. The system displays:

Tank Tilt may be a positive (+) or negative (-) value. If it is a negative value, BE SURE to change the value symbol to minus (-)
when entering a negative Tank Tilt value.
