Tank Level and Temperature Monitoring

DairyTank

Automated dairy milk dispensing and testing machine with a digital screen, branded DairyTANK, by Automated Dairy.

Standalone Monitoring

DairyTank

DairyTank is a specialized monitoring system designed to ensure the quality and integrity of the milk in your tanks.

A standalone PLC used to monitor tank levels, tank temperatures, or both, for vertical or horizontal tanks and silos. With real-time tracking and accurate data, DairyTank helps you maintain optimal conditions so your milk stays fresh and your standards stay high.

Levels

Know Where Every Tank Stands

DairyTank tracks levels in vertical or horizontal tanks and silos in real time. Operators are alerted when a tank or silo is full, and when the load coming in is approaching truck capacity, so nobody is guessing at how much room is left.

Temperature

Temperature You Can Trust

Tank temperatures are monitored alongside levels, giving you a continuous read on the conditions your milk is held in. Hot milk alarms flag a problem while there is still time to act on it rather than after the load is rejected.

Calibration

Self-Adjusting Calibration

A four-inch touchscreen lets your own people adjust calibration on site. There is no waiting on a service call to correct a reading that has drifted, which keeps the numbers on the screen worth trusting.

Outputs

Control Agitators Automatically

Outputs can control agitators based on tank level and hot milk alarms, so agitation responds to what is actually in the tank. The system handles the routine and calls for a person only when something needs attention.

Common questions

DairyTank questions

What does DairyTank monitor?

Tank levels, tank temperatures, or both. It works with vertical or horizontal tanks and silos.

Will it tell me when a tank is full?

Yes. Operators are alerted when a tank or silo is full, and when the load coming in is approaching truck capacity.

What is a hot milk alarm?

It flags when tank temperature moves outside the range you have set, so a problem reaches you while there is still time to act rather than after the load is rejected.

Can my own people recalibrate it?

Yes. The four-inch touchscreen lets users self-adjust calibration on site, so a drifted reading does not require a service call.

Does it control agitators?

Yes. Outputs can control agitators based on tank level and hot milk alarms.

Can I add wash control to it later?

No. DairyTank is a standalone monitoring system and is not expandable. DairyWash covers pipeline and tank sanitation, and DairyLink covers full parlor control.
