PROBE LENGTH Figure 1 – Sample Probe
• The probe model number indicates its length. Information Label
• The model numbers are in the form FMP-LL3-XXX, where XXX = the tank diameter in inches plus 5".
• For example, the FMP-LL3-101 probe is for 8' (2.4 m) tanks as determined by the equation 96" + 5" = 101".
NOTE: Make sure to consider the riser height and overhead clearance when selecting a probe length.
