Inventory Tank Gauging Temperature Measurement

Precise temperature measurement is crucial for high accuracy monitoring of product contained in bulk storage tanks. Any fluctuation in temperature between two static measurements will directly result in a deviation of measured volume, causing uncertainty. To compensate for this, high accuracy temperature measurement must be performed to derive standard volumes.

In 1998 Ultra Electronics, Nuclear Sensors & Process Instrumentation (NSPI) acquired Beacon Electronics, a leader in the design and manufacture of temperature sensing devices for use primarily in bulk liquid storage applications in the Petroleum, Utility and Chemical industries.

Through continued investment in research and engineering, we have continued to strengthen our position in this market. We now offer the broadest range of temperature measurement instrumentation available for inventory tank gauging, hydrocarbon product bulk storage and thermal energy storage applications.

Our products for these applications include single point temperature sensors, multiple point temperature sensors and averaging temperature sensors, which provide the highest accuracy over the entire height of the tank. A capacitive water bottom probe (water level sensor) is also offered to continuously measure free water level below the oil surface and provide input for on-line net inventory. Transmitters providing either 4-20mA or 4-20mA/HART outputs are available.
