Portable gas tight electronic gauge

The HERMetic UTImeter Gtex is a portable gas tight liquid level gauge designed for closed gauging of hydrocarbons and chemicals. The sensor is calibrated once at the factory and does not require subsequent calibration. The temperature probe is a RTD element. The characteristics of the RTD are stored inside the sensor. The sensor is sending true temperature values to the electronic box. Therefore changing a sensor or a tape does not require a new calibration. The unit is used for custody transfer, inventory control measurement and free water detection on marine vessels and shore tanks. Connected to a HERMetic vapour control valve fixed on the tank, the HERMetic UTImeter Gtex avoids any gas release during operation.

Care & Maintenance
(tape replacement, temperature calibration, trouble shooting)

 (see downloads: operation and service manual 

Easy access for battery exchange.

High accuracy and stability. Chemically resistant to corrosive liquids.

Sensor exchange without needs of new calibration.

No temperature drift. No degradation of the sensitivity due to sensor ageing.

Interchangeable adaptors for connection on different vapour control valves.

Tape cleaning devices, window wiper and tape protection on all units as standard.

Low maintenance cost:

Fully modular unit. Change tape, storage tube, sensor or instrument unit yourself.

Easy and detailed instructions in Operation and Service Manual.

A gauge dedicated to your application:

• HERMetic UTImeter Gtex
  with 1 sensing probe, FKM gaskets for the main applications in hydrocarbons.
• HERMetic UTImeter Gtex Chem
  with 1 sensing probe, FFKM gaskets and tape connector for use in corrosive liquids.
• HERMetic UTImeter Gtex Visc and HERMetic UTImeter Gtex Chem Visc
  with 2 load on the sensing probe, recommended for operation in high viscous products or for innage measurements in hydrocarbons or in corrosive liquids. Manual detection of tank bottom.

A closed system exists when a marine tank vessel does not permit direct exposure and/or release of the tank contents into the atmosphere under normal operating conditions.
