I will be updating the website with the new pics and the new pdf’s soon.  We have completed the refab on pics and pdfs of about half of our product line.  Soon we will do the rest of our gauges.

I was on Ebay when I found this gem.  A vintage 1943 At A Glance Krueger Sentry Gauge.  It has all the original packaging and instructions.  Of course I had to buy it.  And obviously, there wasn’t a lot of competition on the purchase.  Go figure, I was the only one who wanted a 66 year old liquid level gauge.

Krueger Sentry Gauge is proud to announce that the Therma Gauge and the Overfill Alert Gauge have been approved by the FDEP as compliant with Florida’s Overfill Prevention policy on aboveground storage tanks.

The EQ number provided by the State of Florida is File No. EQ-730.

Compliance with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) does require special ordering instructions and maintenence procedures.  Both of these documents will be posted on the Krueger Website soon. I will provide the web links to these documents soon.  Until then you can contact us directly to receive the info.

New Product – http://www.ksentry.com/led.htm

Our new product is just on the horizon.  The LED At A Glance.  It is a remote display accessory that fits right on our current line of liquid level gauges.  Now you can turn any Krueger tank level gauge into a remote reading gauge.  This was originally designed with the home heating oil market in mind.  Home owners can mount this to their gauge in the basement, and put the remote display in a more convenient location.  The parallel applications for the product seem endless, however.  If you have a tank that is 10 feet in the air and you want to be able to read the gauge at ground level.  This is perfect.  Check out the picture, and if you have any questions just visit our website and get in contact with us.

A salesman called me the other day offering assistance in getting our manufacturing outsourced to China. “It’s the wave of the future, if you don’t get on the boat you will be left behind and your business will fail.” This was his quote. Everyone from other manufacturers, to magazine articles, and even motivational speakers at conventions have told me this. Get on the boat, or fail. The only way we can remain competitive is to not only get our components from China, but to get our entire product line manufactured in China.

Krueger Sentry Gauge has taken a hard stand on this topic. Our plant is in Green Bay Wisonsin and we manufacture our product right here at home. Any component that we can produce ourselves at competitive prices is done so right here in our facilities. All components for our products that we can’t produce ourselves we have produced by other United States Manufacturer’s. I see no reason to change this. We get quality parts at fair prices from our US manufacturers.

In other words, our liquid level gauges and all of the components on our gauges are Made in the USA and will continue to be made in the USA. We have been in business for over 65 years, we have sold over 3 million gauges, our business continues to grow, and our business has stayed strong and competive despite not getting on the so called “boat”.

I am not a golden aged 75 year old man with a grudge. I am not taking a stand and trying to do what I think is best for this country. I am a 33 year old future business leader doing what I believe is best for this company and its products.

Krueger Sentry Gauge is releasing a new product. It is called the “LED At-A-Glance”. In its base form, this unit will be able to remote monitor your AST’s for a very affordable price using your existing or new Krueger Gauges.

Much like the current At-A-Glance Alarm (http://www.ksentry.com/alarm) the new unit will be adaptable to nearly any Krueger Gauge on the market. This remote liquid level gauge will run on a nine volt lithium battery (expected life 3 years) with remote distance capabilities that are yet to be determined. (50 to 100 feet should be well within the limits)

While the current release is a hard wired remote display, the future possibilities with this product seem endless…. outputs/signals, dry contacts, wireless, hi and low level alarms.

We will have our new product on display at the NACS Show at the Chicago McCormick Center. Dates October 5th – 7th 2008. It will be in full production by January 1st 2009. Stay tuned for pictures and updates on it’s full capabilities.

The At A Glance Leak Gauge has gone through a third party testing program, and has been approved by the FDEP. Our EQ number is EQ-675. The Leak Gauge was tested by Ken Wilcox and Associates. He is very professional, affordable, and highly recommended.

The Leak Gauge is designed for use on AST’s that have a double wall containment. The gauge top mounts to a monitoring pipe or over the top of the interstitial space, it is designed to monitor the bottom of that space and visually alert you to any liquid that may get into the secondary containment. The Krueger Leak Gauge’s simple design makes it affordable, easy to install, and even easier to maintain. For more info on this gauge, see our website. http://www.kruegersentrygauge.com

In Florida, the Department of Environmental Protection requires a visual monitor for Leak Detection on all AST’s (Aboveground Storage Tanks). Inspectors will require this leak gauge to be approved and assigned an FDEP EQ number. For more information on these requirements, visit the FDEP’s website.

Leak Gauge Installation Instructions

Our product line is primarily designed to monitor the liquid level of aboveground storage tanks. Nearly all of our gauges are purely mechanical, extremely easy to install, and are custom made to fit your AST. All we ask for is your tank dimensions, and that the gauge is top mounted. We also make several mechanical gauges that fit more specific needs. These include our Overfill Alert Gauge, the Leak Gauge, and the Barrel Gauge. With the audible alarm option, you can turn your mechanical gauges into high or low level audible gauges.

Most of our tank gauges come in several different material options in order to promote compatibility with as many different types of liquids as possible. The standard liquid gauges are composed of galvanized steel, aluminum, and plastic floats. You can also order the gauge with all stainless steel wetted parts or all plastic wetted parts. This allows for compatibility with Caustics, Hydrochloric Acid, Sulphuric Acid, and alternative fuels to name a few.
