Ultrasound your gas bottle

Posted on 26 Apr 2012

Truma LevelCheck

Truma has invented a device that tells you how full a gas bottle is, and it uses ultrasound technology to check the level.

The Truma LevelCheck is held horizontally against the gas cylinder and a status LED turns green if there is gas at the measuring point on the cylinder, or red if there is no gas. “This means it is very easy to establish how full the gas cylinder is. The ultrasound measurement makes it very precise and reliable,” says product manager Nicolas Toomer. Whilst the device is determining the gas level, the LED display flashes orange; the start and end of the measuring process is indicated by a beep tone.

TheTruma LevelCheck is suitable for all propane and butane steel or aluminium gas cylinders with diameters between 200 and 350 mm.

The product goes on sale in May at a recommended retail price of £62.
