Everything You Need To Know Before Deployment
We know onsite installation can feel disruptive if the process is unclear. That’s why we follow a structured, transparent deployment process that ensures accurate fuel monitoring while minimizing equipment downtime.
End-To-End Deployment
Our engineers handle tank preparation, drilling, sensor mounting, calibration, wiring, and live testing.
Accurate Fuel Monitoring
Scientific calibration ensures highly accurate litre-level readings and precise fuel theft detection.
Real-Time Dashboard
Once installation is completed, your fleet data becomes instantly visible on the Aether platform.
Site & Installation Requirements
A few simple preparations help our engineers complete installation faster and ensure accurate calibration.
6 Hours
Approximate Installation Time Per Asset
Actual deployment time may vary depending on tank condition, tank size, accessibility, and the number of vehicles being installed onsite.
Flat Parking Area
Vehicles or equipment should be parked on stable and level ground during installation.
Electrical Power Access
A nearby electrical socket is required for installation tools and calibration equipment.
Empty Fuel Tank Access
The tank should be drainable for cleaning and scientific calibration.
Diesel Storage Barrels
Temporary barrels or containers should be available for storing removed diesel.
Diesel For Calibration
Diesel equivalent to the tank’s maximum capacity should be available onsite.
Two Support Helpers
Helpers are required for draining and refilling the tank during calibration.
How The Installation Is Performed Onsite
Every installation follows a standardized engineering process to ensure long-term performance, safety, and highly accurate fuel readings.
Empty Fuel Tank
Our team safely drains the diesel from the tank into secure storage barrels before beginning the installation.
- Prevents contamination
- Allows tank inspection
- Ensures accurate calibration
Fuel Tank Cleaning
The tank interior is cleaned thoroughly to remove sludge, rust particles, and contaminants.
- Improves sensor accuracy
- Ensures stable calibration
- Reduces long-term fluctuation
Fuel Tank Measurement & Drilling
Engineers identify the geometric center of the tank, measure the internal depth, and prepare the mounting point. The LLS sensor probe is then cut to match the measured tank depth for accurate readings.
- Precision sensor positioning
- Controlled drilling process
- LLS probe cut to match tank depth
Empty and Full Sensor Calibration
Two reference points are captured to define the sensor's full measurement range. With the tank fully drained, the empty (zero-fuel) point is recorded, and once the tank is filled to capacity the full point is recorded — anchoring an accurate scale for every future reading.
- Sets both the empty (zero) and full reference points
- Defines the sensor's complete measurement range
- Eliminates residual-fuel and span error
Fuel Sensor Installation
The sensor is installed according to tank dimensions and secured for vibration resistance and long-term stability.
- Industrial-grade fitting
- Leak-resistant installation
- Stable live readings
Route & Secure LLS FLX Cable
The LLS sensor FLX cable is routed along protected paths and fastened so it stays clear of moving parts, heat and weather exposure.
- Protected cable routing
- Tied down properly with cable ties
- Prevents wear and disconnection
Scientific Calibration
Multi-level calibration converts raw sensor signals into highly accurate litre-level fuel readings.
- Improves theft detection
- Tracks precise fuel consumption
- Supports irregular tank shapes
IoT Device Installation & Wiring
The Aether IoT device is installed and securely mounted inside the vehicle dashboard, then wired in — the LLS fuel-sensor connection along with the ignition, RPM and power inputs.
- Mounted inside the vehicle dashboard
- LLS fuel-sensor wire connection
- Ignition, RPM & power inputs wired
Configure the IoT Device
The device is configured with its network and sensor parameters, then its inputs and live data output are verified.
- Network & APN configuration
- Sensor & input parameter setup
- Live data output verification
Provisioning & Onboarding
Your asset is provisioned on the Aether platform and a dedicated account is created. Secure login credentials are then emailed to you, giving your team access to live fuel monitoring.
- Asset provisioned on the Aether platform
- Dedicated account created
- Secure login credentials emailed to you

Common Questions About Installation
Will my equipment remain unavailable for the entire day?
No. Most installations are completed within approximately 6 hours per asset.
Is drilling the tank safe?
Yes. Our engineers follow controlled drilling and industrial sealing procedures specifically designed for diesel tanks.
Can installation be done directly at our project site?
Yes. Our deployment teams provide onsite installation support across India.
Do you provide post-installation support?
Yes. We provide maintenance support, recalibration, troubleshooting, and technical assistance after deployment.
