Remote Tank Monitors - Crucial for Efficiency & Operational Excellence

Written by Kelly Burke | Aug 12, 2025 11:45:00 AM

Recent advancements in oil tank monitoring systems have significantly enhanced their accuracy, efficiency, and integration capabilities.

Like many fuel dealers, our business relies on remote tank monitoring systems in our daily operations. We have been monitoring fuel, lubricants and DEF for over 15 years now. The equipment is installed and maintained by our own factory-trained service technicians.

New tank monitoring technology has made life a lot easier for both fuel dealers and their customers. Modern monitors are tougher, more accurate, and packed with smart features like Guided Wave Radar and IoT sensors that track tank levels and even temperature in real time. That means no more guessing, no more manual checks, and no more worrying about running out of fuel.

Customers can log in from anywhere to see their tank levels and usage history, but most of the time they don’t even need to think about it—the fuel company just shows up when they’re supposed to.

For fuel dealers, these systems are a huge help. Real-time data lets them plan deliveries better, avoid making unnecessary trips, cut down on partial fills, and reduce leftover product on trucks. The software also gives clear reports on daily usage and helps predict when tanks will need refills. During storms, early alerts help them get ahead of demand and take care of emergencies first.

Overall, the new tech makes fuel delivery smoother, cheaper, and more efficient for everyone involved.

We wrote an article for the August issue of Oil & Energy Magazine that goes into the details and how we use monitoring systems to optimize deliveries and service for our customers.
