TECHNOTON DUT-E GSM | GPS FUEL LEVEL SENSOR
Monitor fuel levels and asset location with one device
Need to know how much fuel remains in a vehicle or tank without installing a separate GPS tracking unit? The Technoton DUT-E GSM combines a capacitive fuel level sensor, GPS/GLONASS positioning and an LTE cellular modem in one device.
Use it to review fuel remaining, refuelling, unexpected draining and asset location. It can report to a compatible telematics platform or send supported reports directly by SMS or email, depending on how it is configured.
WHERE THE DUT-E GSM FITS
Which fuel monitoring problem are you solving?
Fleet vehicles
Review tank level, refuelling and draining alongside the location of trucks, buses and other suitable vehicles.
Mobile machinery
Check fuel and location for suitable construction, agricultural or mining equipment without adding a separate tracker.
Generators and tanks
Receive fuel readings from a suitable stationary installation with external power and cellular coverage.
Why combine the fuel sensor and GPS tracker?
The challenge
A conventional connected fuel sensor normally needs a separate tracking or telematics unit to transmit readings and location data remotely.
How DUT-E GSM helps
Its built-in positioning receiver and cellular modem let one installed device measure tank level and send fuel and location reports. Tank calibration, power and cellular service are still required.
From tank reading to useful fuel information
01 / Measure
Sensor in the tank
The capacitive probe measures fuel level. Calibration relates that level to estimated fuel volume for your particular tank.
02 / Connect
GPS and LTE
The built-in GPS/GLONASS receiver determines location. The LTE modem transmits reports using a suitable SIM and cellular network.
03 / Review
Reports and events
Review fuel, refuelling, draining and location through a compatible server, or use supported direct SMS or email reporting.
Choose how you want to receive the data
| Compatible telematics server | Send fuel and location data to a compatible platform for viewing, history and reports. Confirm protocol compatibility and platform costs. |
|---|---|
| Direct SMS or email | Receive supported reports without running your own telematics server. Confirm the required reporting and event settings. |
| Additional sensors | The S6/CAN J1939 interface can incorporate compatible Technoton fuel sensors or flow meters. Ask us to check the proposed system design. |
Tell Metromatics what you need to see before ordering. The best reporting arrangement depends on your assets, coverage, existing software and the events you want to monitor.
DUT-E GSM specifications at a glance
| Measuring principle | Capacitive fuel level measurement |
|---|---|
| Positioning and connection | Built-in GPS/GLONASS receiver and LTE cellular modem |
| Power supply | 10–45 V DC external supply |
| Manufacturer stated inaccuracy | No more than ±1% under Technoton’s specified conditions. Tank calibration and installation affect the volume readings you can obtain. |
| Probe configuration | The probe can be shortened or extended; Technoton states a maximum extended length of 10,000 mm. Calibration is required after cutting. |
| Server protocol | Wialon IPS v2.0; confirm compatibility with your chosen platform |
Check the current Technoton product information when specifying the sensor. Ask us to confirm probe components, tank suitability and the complete reporting setup.
