The HERMetic UTImeter Rtex is a professional portable electronic liquid level gauge designed for restricted gauging of petroleum products on marine vessels and shore tanks.
The system provides three essential measurements in a single operation: ullage level, temperature, and oil-water interface level, making it suitable for cargo control measurement, custody transfer, inventory control, and free-water detection.
The HERMetic UTImeter Rtex is connected to a HERMetic vapour control valve fixed on the tank, allowing measurement under restricted operating conditions.
SMTS Marine Solutions LLC supplies and supports Honeywell HERMetic tank gauging equipment, providing equipment supply, technical consultation, inspection, maintenance, repair, spare-parts assistance, and service support for vessel operators, ship managers, marine contractors, cargo surveyors, and marine inspection professionals.The HERMetic UTImeter Rtex is designed for professional tank measurement applications where repeatable ullage, temperature, and oil-water interface measurements are required.

Integrated RTD Temperature Sensing
The HERMetic UTImeter Rtex incorporates an RTD temperature element within the sensor for continuous temperature reading of the liquid.
Honeywell specifies temperature accuracy of ±0.1°C from 0°C to 70°C and ±0.2°F from 32°F to 158°F. Temperature resolution can be selected between 0.01 and 0.1 degree, with Celsius or Fahrenheit selectable.
Temperature measurement can support:
- Cargo temperature verification
- Cargo quantity calculations
- Cargo condition monitoring
- Marine survey activities
- Custody transfer operations
HERMetic UTImeter Rtex Models & Configurations
Rtex & Rtex Visc Configurations
The HERMetic UTImeter Rtex family includes configurations designed for different petroleum-product measurement requirements.
HERMetic UTImeter Rtex
The standard Rtex configuration uses a 1-inch sensing probe with FKM gaskets for the main hydrocarbon applications.
HERMetic UTImeter Rtex Visc
The Rtex Visc configuration uses a 2-inch load on the sensing probe and is recommended for high-viscosity products in hydrocarbon applications. It can also support innage measurement through manual detection of the tank bottom.
