Press release from: TankDepot.co.uk

Online oil tank specialist TankDepot.co.uk is now taking pre-orders for the Watchman Alarm integrated oil tank contents gauge and theft alarm.
Incidents of fuel theft in the UK have decreased almost as quickly as heating oil and diesel prices over recent months. However, householders and homeowners seeking further reassurance, need now look no further than TankDepot.co.uk, for a low cost and easily fitted oil tank alarm system. 



The new Watchman Alarm, builds upon the success of the best selling, Watchman family of electronic oil tank contents gauges, which today are fitted to more tanks manufactured in the UK, than any other electronic oil tank contents gauge. It incorporates the very latest ultrasonic fuel measurement technology and like every Watchman can be simply and quickly fitted to most tanks, with no specialist tools or equipment required. 



"Just like the standard Watchman Sonic oil tank contents gauge, the Watchman Alarm consists of a transmitter and a receiver. The battery powered transmitter unit is fitted to the tank, whilst the mains powered the receiver unit simply plugs into a standard 13 amp electrical socket." explains TankDepot.co.uk's Philip Breek.

"The transmitter unit measures the level of oil inside the tank. This information is the relayed wirelessly to the receiver unit, where it is displayed via an easy to read LCD screen. However, the Watchman Alarm's transmitter unit additionally includes an audible alarm function.

“So in the event of a sudden and unexpected drop in the level of fuel inside the tank, the alarm is activated. This provides an immediate alert and allows preventative action to be taken - even if that is something as simple as switching on an external light."



The Watchman Alarm will be available for despatch from 1 March 2009 and is suitable for most single skin and bunded oil tanks, storing biodiesel, diesel and heating oil. However in the meantime, customers can pre-order the pioneering product, by visiting TankDepot.co.uk online and is one of several oil tank security products available from the UK's leading online reseller of fuel and liquid storage tanks.

Other security products available from TankDepot.co.uk, include lockable fill points and lockable inspection points, compatible with most Harlequin tanks - as well as selected single skin and bunded oil tanks from other leading manufacturers.
