The LSP Series sensor measures the hydrostatic pressure created by the liquid level in the tank. Convert-
ing this measured pressure value to other parameters such as the tank level and the remaining liquid vol-
ume in gallons requires the tank volume capacity, the tank maximum liquid height measured from the
bottom of the tank to the liquid surface when filled to the rated capacity, and the density of the liquid.
Measurements assume the tank has a uniform horizontal cross-section. To convert the measured pressure
to volumetric information, the LSP Series sensor requires the user to enter three parameters via the
