Inventory Control in Lubricant Production, Blending and Storage
Gain full insight into your inventory with complete system for measurement, communication, and operator software
Achieve Volume Control with Cost-effective Tank Monitoring System
Inventory management in lube oil production and blending facilities can be challenging. Due to the nature of their operations, lube oil plants often have numerous storage tanks containing a wide variety of liquids, many of which have different properties and different requirements for storage conditions. The tankage may also have expanded over time to spread out over a large area, and may have been built to different standards.
A tank monitoring system is a cost-effective way to gain control of tank operations and product inventory. With flexibility to connect a range of level, temperature and pressure transmitters you can always find the right solution for each tank – regardless of size, shape or content. And the efficient infrastructure solution with a single cable digital bus saves wiring for a low installation cost. The tank monitoring system lets you eliminate manual measurement, improves accuracy, and gives you real-time overview in easy-to-use software.

Rosemount TankMaster is a powerful, easy-to-use Windows-based inventory management software package. Rosemount TankMaster collects real-time tank gauging data such as level, temperature, water interface level and pressure. It automatically calculates volume and mass for inventory and custody transfer for bulk liquid storage tanks. It also provides operator overview, configuration, setup and service for Rosemount tank gauging systems.
- Increase plant efficiency by getting a complete tank overview.
- Get real time inventory calculations with API standard net volumes.
- Achieve network interoperability with host systems and other vendors.
Tank Gauging
