Abstract
The present discloses alternate constructions of water detector floats for fuel storage tanks. Embodiments show various techniques of altering the density of a sub-assembly floatation device while maintaining the system's efficient ability to detect water presence in conjunction with a Magnetostrictive probe. In the float's upward motion due to water presence or high density fuel in the tank, at some predetermined locations, its density is altered by way of strategically located free weights along its travel path.
