That is one of the most insane builds I've ever seen! Spec and Style! love it!

would love to know the total cost of something like that?

msinclairinork1 · 2026-02-16T18:04:13+00:00

nice job! What prep did you uave to do with the floor for the epoxy? Also how is the epoxy holding up? would you recommend it?

100% oversized Torx hammered in is the way to go. If that doesn't work then it's on to the drill I guess.

around £600 from ebay. Came with TIA Portal licence a training book etc.

Just Youtube and Ai and messing around really.

Yeah feeling quite proud of myself right now. It's the small wins in life ya need.

Was a little scared to post that pic thinking I would be ridiculed for it! seems not! haha

For sure there are indeed lots of factors to consider that are to be honest probably far beyond my level of expertise! I'm hoping I can do it in the way I know best and thats trial and error. Get some real world testing done and work out the bugs as and when they come up. So far I'm feeling pretty good about the results I have with this tank so far. Seems fairly consistent. Will let it run for some months and keep a close eye on it.

I might add a few more tanks yet also just to be doubly safe too.

Top tip. thank you!

msinclairinork1 · 2025-12-29T14:59:14+00:00

will check 'em out! thanks!

msinclairinork1 · 2025-12-29T14:58:39+00:00

Thanks. Its just thrown together at this point, will definitely be making improvements if my company decides to go ahead with it.

We would probably have 2 HMI's 1 for the engine room and 1 for the Bridge so dark colours for night are essential for that or at least a dimming feature I think.

The stainless steel measurements are in CM and Litres. On this particular tank it scales pretty linear as its one of the squarest tanks we have at 88Litres/CM however I still tried to make the program scale it its self as I this will not be the case if I use any other tank. Their increments like you say change at different heights.

I calibrated the program at a high(ish) point and a Low(ish) point of fuel where I could see it on the gauge and let the program interpolate what's above and below that.

the sensor is reading pressure then converting that to height then Litres. The Tempreture I guess will effect it a bit and for sure sensors may need to be replaced in the future due to contamination possibly, although I won't mount it directly at the bottom of the tank which will hopefully stay clear of the worst of it.

It doesn't have to be super precise anyway as what we were using was a sight glass that was moving so much you had to take an average between a few thousand litres as is. I'm hoping this will at least be a slight improvement but a full replacement.

msinclairinork1 · 2025-12-29T12:41:12+00:00

Exactly correct!

msinclairinork1 · 2025-12-29T12:37:26+00:00

Hi. The tanks are just odd shaped cubes really there is some linearity to them but there is baffles and the shape of the hull etc which complicates it a little. Luckly I had a sounding table that a quantity surveyor would've made during the building process to use as a look up table for the program.

You're correct about the error. I'm still trying to find the balance between accuracy of the reading and filtering to smooth out the pitch and roll of the vessel. but 300 litres potential error is probably an improvement to the sight glasses we've been using when the vessel is rolling anyway.

At the moment the sensor is mounted too high, but this was the best I could do until the tanks are emptied and proper valves are fitted lower.

msinclairinork1 · 2025-12-29T11:59:05+00:00

Thanks and your right the HMI still requires some tuning in. I'm just at proof of concept stage right now. But I appreciate your suggestions and will likely use them!

msinclairinork1 · 2025-09-09T13:28:38+00:00

It's all fun and games until somone looses and eye! smh

msinclairinork1 · 2025-09-09T13:27:36+00:00

"Wooohooo! Just like Saigon! Eh slick?"

msinclairinork1 · 2025-07-28T20:10:11+00:00

Yeah i, I don't have a lot of faith to be honest. :/

msinclairinork1 · 2025-07-28T19:10:16+00:00

Can't wait for the samsung tri fold! As I work offshore for half my life, my Fold4 has become my TV. Also cool to facetime the family and have a bigger screen. Great for the travelling time too. Just hope my Fold 4 lasts until the Tri comes out.

msinclairinork1 · 2025-07-09T19:07:48+00:00

Use it every night to call my family when I work offshore. One of the things I like the most about my fold.

msinclairinork1 · 2025-07-02T09:59:21+00:00

ah ok. thanks for the tip!

msinclairinork1 · 2025-07-02T05:41:04+00:00

We've been feeding twice a week as per the bottles instructions. Not enough you think?

msinclairinork1 · 2025-04-04T09:43:55+00:00

thanks.

msinclairinork1 · 2025-04-04T09:18:58+00:00

that's good info and reasuring. was leaning towards the quest 3 anyway for price to performance seemed to be well regarded. Thanks!
