UTI Oil-Water Interface Gauging Tapes For Tankers
Standard Applications:
- Restricted (“R” type)
- (Marine Tankers via MMC vapor control valves).
Restricted Trimode
Other Applications:
- Open gauging (“O” type) (Non-Toxic product vapors only).
- Environmental gauging (“E” type) ( Typical well monitoring vapors only). Low cost polyethlyene coated tape available, all other tapes are Tefzel®, (Dupont Corp.), coated and anti-static treated by MMC.
MMC’s UTI gauging tapes are capable of detecting all floating and non-conductive hydrocarbons. Each instrument is designed for ease of use. Gauging for liquid or Interface level is accomplished simply and quickly. When the electronic probe is lowered and senses a hydrocarbon, a steady horn tone is sounded and a yellow LED illuminates. When sensing an Oil-water interface, or a heavier than water non-conductive liquid, an intermittent horn tone sounds and a red LED begins flashing. This gauging system is certified as “Intrinsically Safe” for use in all class IIC hazardous atmospheres.
