th May), Emerson said the tanks are large, complex structures with a typical capacity of up to 200,000 cubic meters, which place specific demands on tank gauging systems.
By providing both inventory management and roll-over prediction in a single software solution, the TankMaster software reduces costs, increases ease-of-use and reduces the risk of a potential accident.
Further to that, Emerson’s TankMaster software uses data from level, temperature and density measurement devices incorporated into the Rosemount Tank Gauging System, to detect layering and calculate when a roll-over might occur, enabling operators to take preventative action.
Commenting on the enhancement, AnnCharlott Enberg, Global Functional Safety Manager at Emerson’s Automation Solutions Business, said, “Many industrial accidents are traceable to human factors, so vendors are increasingly required to provide software and instrumentation that reduce the risk of human error by b
