Application
The fuel tanks are some of the most important on board. They store a variety of fuels; diesel for the main engine and power generators, petrol for jet skis and dinghies, even aviation fuel for the helicopter. Level measurement ensures optimum availability of fuel at all times. An additional overfill protection system also ensures maximum safety for the environment.
