Cargo tank level or volume measurement
An advanced pulse radar sensor providing high performance with low maintenance needs. Compact design with no intrusive sensor dome ensures simplicity of installation.
Cargo tank overpressure and vacuum measurement
APT500 or APT1000 with a direct pressure calibration measures the cargo tank inert gas blanket directly or in the vent manifold
Ship's trim and list measurement
A pair of solid state, inclinometers installed 90° with respect to each other, measure bow <> stern and
port <> starboard angles
Wing ballast tank measurement
APT500 or APT1000 level transmitters are installed at the bottom of a stilling tube with cable exit via a deck penetration flange
Double-bottom ballast tank measurement
APT500 or APT1000 level transmitters are installed using a clamp mount with cable exit via a liquid-tight bulkhead penetration
Bunker fuel oil measurement in engine room
APT500 or APT1000 level transmitter with flange mount installed at the base of the tank via an isolating valve as isolation from potential high temperatures
Level detection in bilges and void spaces
BLS 9200 bilge switches detect the rising level of water or oily waste as part of a pump control or flood detection safety system
Ship's draught measurement
APT500 or APT1000 level transmitter installed inside a vented draught tube is used to measure the ship’s depth in the water
Overfill protection for waste water / oil storage
KD 30 level switch used to detect a high level condition in bilge and service tanks
Centralised Display
TankView software provides centralised indication, alarm and control of all tanks. Repeater displays provide function critical information at additional locations
VPM4300 works with APT1000 transmitters and RFM termination modules to provide a networked centralised display.
