Description
Honeywell’s HERMetic UTImeter Rtex is a portable electronic liquid level gauge designed for gauging of petroleum products under restricted conditions. A restricted system exists when a marine tank vessel allows some vapors from its cargo tanks into the atmosphere under normal operating conditions.
What Is It?
The sensor of HERMetic UTImeter Rtex is calibrated once at the factory and does not require subsequent calibration. The temperature probe is an RTD element and its characteristics are stored inside the sensor. The sensor sends true temperature values to the electronic package. Therefore, changing a sensor or a tape does not require a new calibration.
The unit complies with a host of regulations, including:
- IMO (Solas 74, MARPOL 73/78)
- ISO (4512, 3170, 4268)
- API (MPMS Chap 3.1A, MPMS Chap 7, MPMS Chap 8.1, MPMS Chap 17.11 )
- IP (PMM Part III-1, PMM Part IV)
- EC Directive 89/336/EEC (EMC)
- EC Directive 94/9/EC (MED)
- EC Directive 96/98/EC (ATEX 100a).
It has been approved by:
- National authorities (USCG, MSA, GOST-R)
- All major classification societies
- ATEX, IECEx, Factory Mutual, NEPSI, GOST standard.
How Does It Work?
The sensor of HERMetic UTImeter Gtex is calibrated once at the factory and does not require subsequent calibration. The temperature probe is an RTD element, with its characteristics stored inside the sensor. The sensor sends true temperature values to the electronic package. Therefore, changing a sensor or a tape does not require a new calibration.
