Finally, a sensor that also displays the waste tank correctly.
And it's also incredibly easy to install.

Easy installation
Measuring the black water tank was easy. Accuracy needs to be confirmed with use. Connected to my Cerbo GX – the phone app is very useful. Calibration is extremely simple.
Very satisfied!
This fuel level sensor is simply attached to the top of the tank and measures the fill level using radar. The incredibly easy installation is a major plus, as no drilling or installation is required. All that's needed is a connection to the NMEA2000 backbone. The connection cable is approximately 1 meter long.

The sensor is calibrated via Bluetooth using a smartphone app. You can either enter the tank height and maximum fill level, or define any number of individual calibration points. This allows you to use even tanks with complex geometries.

Good things come to those who wait!
Not only is it the most affordable radar fuel level sensor on the market, it's also by far the easiest to install and configure. I have two other sensors from two different manufacturers installed on my boat, so I think I can make that statement.

Received a great product after a long wait.
When the part was finally available and arrived quickly, unfortunately without an adhesive pad (which wasn't a big problem), I was rewarded with a sensor that is very easy to install and calibrate via the app, even though the tank is quite oddly shaped.

I use the sensor via the app, so I don't need to run any cables! It's powered by the water pump.

Everything's great!

NMEA2k connection with Simrad is a task
BT connection with android works fine as well as the configuration.

The devices can be detected on NMEA2k, but the installation as tank monitors require same steps over and over. I don't know if the problem is with Simrad NSS or with Simarine, but all other devices in the same network have been very easy to install.

The next day (after power off) the devices cannot be found anymore on the network. The reading on Simrad shows 0% on all of them although they showed correct reading the day before. However on BT Android two of them show 0% and one 100%.

So far I have not been able to trace the problem. Simarine warns about low voltage in NMEA2k network, but specification for NMEA2k is 9-16V. If the sensors cannot work within that range, they are not NMEA2000 compatible.
