FM 200 is a gas filled in single skinned containers after cooling it to such an extent that it becomes liquid. Once it takes the form of liquid it is filled in the cylinders and delivered to the customers demanding it. These cylinders are attached to the steel pipes that circulate the ship and deliver the gas to the areas where it is needed once discharged. To make sure that the gas is always present in the cylinders at the time of its need, the ultrasonic liquid level indicator is used by the maintenance crew to monitor the level of it. It may be done on a daily routine or once in a week. Monitoring is up to the decision of the boat owner. However, it is recommended to do it daily to learn about the exact levels and to detect leaks as well.
