6.  Functions - Key Features
This HERMetic instrument is a gas-tight portable multiple 
functions gauging system that is designed to perform 
 
under completely closed conditions in a single operation 
 
3 measurements: 
a) 
Ullage (outage). Optionally innage is available¹.
b)  Oil/water Interface Level.
Tape resolution: 1 mm (
1/16”)
Tape accuracy: ±3.2 mm for 30 m 
(±1/8” approx. for 100 feet)
Ullage/interface detection accuracy:
±2 mm (±
0.08” approx.)
Minimum detectable tank bottom interface or liquid level: 
 
4 mm (0.16” approx.). 
c) 
Temperature by continuous reading at any level.
Ambient temperature range: -20°C to 50°C 
(-4°F to 122°F)
Sensor measurement range:-40°C to 90°C 
(-40°F to 194°F)
Resolution: 0.01° or 0.1°, selectable
Accuracy over calibration range: ±0.1°C (0°C to 70°C); 
 
±0.2°F (32°F to 158 °F)
Temperature reading: °C or °F, selectable.
This HERMetic device meets the requirements of API MPMS 
Chapter 7 2001, table 3, ISO 4268 and IP PMM Part IV.
Thanks to the small diameter of the sensing probe this 
instrument can be used with valves of diameters down to 
 
25 mm (1”) only. 
A tape protection tube prevents closing the valve on the tape 
through inadvertence.
Gauging is done under completely gas tight conditions 
 
therefore maintaining over- or underpressure in the tank. 
 
The device is designed to withstand tank pressure up to 
 
0.3 bar (4.4 psi).
¹ An additional device, usable with 2” valves only, can 
be provided that allows 
Reference Height and Innage 
measurement. Available on “Visc” models.
