Ismael,
   Which version of TRNSYS are you using? I tried dragging a Type60f out 
and running a simulation without making any other changes and did not 
have a problem. If you are running Trnsys17, please send me the project 
that is generating the error. If you are running an earlier version, 
please consider an update.

   In any case, though, the error is not serious; it indicates that you 
need to adjust the parameters of Type60 so that the sum of parameters 
45, 47, 49, etc (all the way to the number of tank nodes that you have 
specified) is equal to the value of parameter 3. Please be aware that 
the default Type60f is a single node tank 1.25 m in height. The height 
of the single node is 1.25 m as well. If you increase the number of 
nodes, the new node heights get the same default as the first node 
height (ie 1.25 m). If you add nodes, you need to adjust the node 
heights so that they sum to the value of parameter 3. There are other 
versions of Type60 that will automatically set the node heights equal.
Regards,
  David
