SMTS MARINE SOLUTIONS LLC – Honeywell HERMetic UTImeter Gtex 2000 Portable Tank Gauging System
Advanced Closed Tank Gauging Technology
The Honeywell HERMetic UTImeter Gtex 2000 is designed to perform closed gauging measurements without routinely exposing tank contents to the surrounding atmosphere. Its portable electronic design allows operators to conduct essential measurements during cargo loading, discharge, tank inspection, and product inventory verification.
The system is suitable for petroleum terminals, oil storage facilities, chemical tank farms, refineries, and marine cargo-handling operations. When installed and operated according to the manufacturer’s instructions with the appropriate vapor control equipment, it supports safe measurement practices and helps reduce the risk of hazardous vapor release.
Key Measurement Functions
The Honeywell HERMetic UTImeter Gtex 2000 combines multiple measurement capabilities in one portable tank gauging instrument.
Ullage measurement: Determines the distance between the tank reference point and the liquid surface.
Temperature measurement: Measures cargo temperature using an integrated temperature sensor.
Oil-water interface detection: Identifies the interface between oil or other compatible liquids and free water.
Innage and reference-height verification: Supports applicable tank measurement procedures when used with the correct accessories and operating method.
These functions help improve operational efficiency during petroleum cargo inspection, tank inventory measurement, and liquid level verification.
High-Accuracy Liquid Level and Interface Measurement
The HERMetic UTImeter Gtex 2000 uses electronic sensing technology to provide repeatable measurements for tank gauging applications. Its ultrasonic liquid-level sensor and conductivity-based interface detection help operators determine liquid levels and identify free water, subject to the product configuration and the characteristics of the measured liquids.
The system’s measurement performance makes it suitable for cargo inspection, stock monitoring, and tank measurement activities in marine and industrial environments.
Key measurement specifications include:
- Ullage and interface measurement accuracy: ±2 mm
- Tape accuracy: ±1.5 mm per 30 m
- Measurement resolution: 1 mm / 1/16 inch
- Temperature accuracy: ±0.1°C from 0°C to 70°C
- Temperature accuracy: ±0.2°F from 32°F to 158°F
These specifications should be verified against the applicable manufacturer’s documentation and instrument configuration before use in contractual or custody transfer applications.
