PORTABLE GAS TIGHT ELECTRONIC LIQUID LEVEL GAUGING The HERMetic UTImeter Gtex is a portable gas tight liquid level gauge designed for closed gauging of hydrocarbons and chemicals. The sensor is calibrated once at the factory and does not require subsequent calibration. The temperature probe is a RTD element. The characteristics of the RTD are stored inside the sensor. The sensor is sending true temperature values to the electronic box. Therefore changing a sensor or a tape does not require a new calibration. The unit is used for custody transfer, inventory control measurement and free water detection on marine vessels when connected to a HERMetic vapour control valve. When fixed on the tank the HERMetic UTImeter Gtex avoids any gas release during operation. A closed system exists when a marine tank vessel does not permit direct exposure and/or release of the tank contents into the atmosphere under normal operating conditions. |

The unit can be ordered with a 1" connection or a 2" connection depending on your needs to fit the HERMetic Gtex to the vapour control valve.
The unit also enables 3, optionally 4 measurements in one single operation
