SMTS Marine Solutions LLC provides marine instrumentation and tank gauging solutions, including support for the Honeywell HERMetic UTImeter Otex, a portable electronic ullage, temperature and interface gauge designed for petroleum and chemical storage tanks where open or restricted gauging is permitted.
The HERMetic UTImeter Otex combines multiple measurement functions in a single portable instrument, enabling operators to measure ullage, product temperature and oil/water interface. Its practical design supports tank inspection, petroleum inventory verification, custody transfer measurement and free-water detection across compatible industrial and storage applications.
Advanced Tank Gauging Solutions for Marine, Petroleum & Chemical Industries
High-Precision Electronic Ullage Measurement
The HERMetic UTImeter Otex electronic ullage gauge is designed to provide accurate and repeatable liquid-level measurements for petroleum and chemical tank gauging operations. With a specified ullage measurement accuracy of ±2 mm, it supports inventory verification and routine tank inspection procedures.
Integrated Temperature and Oil/Water Interface Detection
The UTImeter Otex combines product temperature measurement and oil/water interface detection in one instrument. Its specified temperature accuracy is ±0.1°C over the 0°C to 70°C range, helping operators obtain useful measurement data for petroleum storage, liquid inventory management and free-water monitoring.
Portable Design for Efficient Tank Inspection
Featuring an illuminated LCD display, audible and visual indications, and modular construction, the HERMetic UTImeter Otex is designed for practical use during tank gauging activities. Its portable format enables operators to perform multiple measurement functions without needing separate instruments for each task.
Simplified Maintenance and Sensor Replacement
The HERMetic UTImeter Otex incorporates factory-calibrated sensor technology and a modular design that can simplify maintenance. Compatible tape and sensor components can be replaced in accordance with manufacturer procedures, helping reduce servicing complexity and equipment downtime.
Hazardous-Area Suitability and Standards
The HERMetic UTImeter Otex is designed for use in applicable hazardous-area environments and is available with approvals depending on the specific model and configuration.
Relevant product documentation may reference ATEX, IECEx, Factory Mutual and applicable API, ISO and IP measurement standards. Before operating the instrument, users should verify the exact certification markings, approved battery type, operating limitations and gauging procedures against the manufacturer’s documentation and the site’s hazardous-area requirements.
Important: Open or restricted gauging should only be performed where the tank, product, site procedures and applicable safety requirements permit it.
Marine, Petroleum and Industrial Applications
The HERMetic UTImeter Otex is suitable for compatible tank gauging and measurement operations in a variety of industries, including:
Petroleum storage tanks and tank farms
Oil terminals and fuel storage facilities
Refineries and petrochemical plants
Chemical storage tanks and processing facilities
Liquid inventory control and stock reconciliation
Custody transfer measurement verification
Oil/water interface measurement and free-water detection
Tank inspection, calibration and measurement verification
Its combination of ullage, temperature and interface measurement makes it a practical solution for operators who require portable electronic tank gauging equipment.
