The NetGuardian LPG Controller
Meet the NetGuardian LPG Controller
The NetGuardian LPG Controller is ideal for remotely managing up to 4 liquid propane tanks. The LPG
Controller analyzes the propane flow from each tank to achieve a balanced consumption of propane
from all tanks assigned to the automation process. The unit also has an override feature, so that a tech
can manually turn on and off valves through the web browser interface. The NetGuardian LPG Controller
has an indicator LED for each tank showing valve status (open/close) and for trigger points for tank
level.
