Engineering Innovation Meets Customer-Centric Thinking

In an industry long reliant on mechanical gauges and outdated pressure sensors, Mopeka® has emerged as a global leader—setting a new standard for accuracy, safety, and operational efficiency in liquid commodity storage and delivery.

Mopeka’s patented sonar-based monitoring systems deliver real-time volumetric readings accurate to within a hundredth of an inch—on everything from small 20lb propane cylinders to industrial tanks holding greater than 90,000 gallons. Unlike traditional systems, Mopeka’s technology operates without floats or pressure gauges, making installation straightforward on both legacy and new tanks.

“Our system’s adaptability and precision are essential in high-volume environments where even a one-percent discrepancy can lead to significant inefficiencies,” says Kevin Jaffe, Chief Operating Officer.

From consumer-friendly models like the Pro Check and Pro Check Universal to commercial-grade options such as the Pro Plus and TD40, Mopeka offers a full range of solutions equipped with extended-range Bluetooth, satellite, or Global SIM cellular connectivity. Every model is designed for durability, delivering three to five years of battery life with easy replacement.

Technology That Outperforms the Competition

While many competitors rely on gauge-based technologies—often plagued by inaccuracies of 7–9%—Mopeka bypasses the gauge entirely. Its patented sonar technology consistently achieves greater than 99% accuracy while also delivering integrated cathodic protection and tank level monitoring in a single unit.

The system is non-invasive, works equally well on pressurized and nonpressurized tanks, and operates across multiple networks, including satellite, Bluetooth, and global SIM cellular connections. The Commercial Line of sensors is Class 1 Div 1 certified for enhanced safety and provides real-time alerts and compliance reporting to streamline oversight and operational control. Mopeka’s technology is as versatile as it is precise, serving both business-to-business and business-to-consumer markets worldwide.

Listening Beyond the Surface

Although technology is Mopeka’s engine, listening is its fuel. The company has built an “ever-listening” culture that keeps it deeply connected to customers and their needs. Mopeka’s leadership and technical teams spend at least 60 days each year in the field, meeting with customers to understand their operations and uncover opportunities for improvement.

Feedback is not limited to in-person visits. The company tracks every support ticket, escalation, and inquiry—reviewing them monthly, sometimes biweekly, to identify trends and issues early. Quarterly rotating feedback sessions further ensure that customers have a direct voice in shaping Mopeka’s development roadmap.

This proactive, engagement-driven approach ensures that approximately 95 percent of Mopeka’s new product features originate directly from customer suggestions. “We don’t wait for customers to come to us when they’ve reached a breaking point,” Jaffe explains. “We proactively check in—whether it’s for a site visit, a lunch meeting, or just a conversation. It’s about staying ahead of problems and uncovering opportunities for innovation.”

Real-World Impact

Mopeka’s innovations are not just theoretical—they deliver measurable, real-world results. One major propane distributor managing 20,000 customer tanks used Mopeka’s real-time monitoring to move from fixed delivery routes to a dynamic, demand-based model. In the first year, the change eliminated more than 31,000 unnecessary deliveries, reducing fuel consumption, labor costs, and vehicle wear while improving customer satisfaction.

In Montana, Energy Partners deployed Mopeka’s Pro Plus sensors across 27 bulk tanks, each holding 31,500 gallons. The results were immediate and dramatic. “We used to read tanks monthly,” the team reported. “Now we have real-time data that shows both incoming and outgoing volumes. Our bulk inventory has never been more accurate.” The shift shortened monthly reconciliation by hours, minimized waste, streamlined ordering, and increased operational efficiency across the board.

A Culture That Powers Innovation

Mopeka’s privately held ownership structure—shared among its four founders and employee shareholders—gives the company the flexibility to make decisions with long-term customer value in mind rather than short-term profit targets. “The culture is deliberately designed to foster innovation, encouraging employees to question assumptions, challenge leadership, and think creatively about solutions,” says Jaffe.

In addition, Mopeka’s CEO – Reese Moore was just announced as a Class of 2025 Industry Innovator by Butane Propane News Magazine - August, 2025, further cementing the company’s leadership in innovation and industry transformation.

The Mopeka Difference

From patented sonar technology and integrated cathodic protection to its unmatched accuracy, multi-network connectivity, and customer-driven innovation, Mopeka delivers a tank monitoring solution that is both advanced and practical. The company’s ability to combine engineering excellence with a deep commitment to customer engagement has made it the most trusted name in its field.
