Level Measurement and Inventory Control for LPG Bottling Plants
Complete Inventory Monitoring System for Safe and Efficient Gas Storage
Gain Full Insight Into Your LPG Storage Tanks
Storage of liquefied gas in pressurized tanks places high demands on reliability and safety. LPG bottling and distribution plants are a common example of such operations: the gas is stored as a liquid in high-pressure bullet tanks before filling to smaller bottles which are then distributed to resellers and households by truck.
A tank monitoring system offers a safe and efficient way to monitor level, pressure and temperature of the gas-liquid mixture in the tanks. The system is simple and efficient to install thanks to its' single-cable digital bus communication, and easy-to-use inventory management software provides insight and control of stored volumes. Independent high level alarm measurements can easily be added for a complete safety solution including audiovisual alarms.

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.
Reporting
General log, mass balance and batch reports.
Customized Views
Standard views cover most installations, although plant and tank layouts may be customized.
System Configuration and Installation
Step-by-step wizard provides guided configuration and installation of all devices in a Rosemount Tank Gauging System.
The Rosemount 2410 handles data communication between field devices and the control room, and is available in two versions for single or multiple tanks. Control room communication options include Modbus, IEC 62591 (
WirelessHART® protocol) and emulation of other vendors’ protocols. The Rosemount 2410 also feeds power to Rosemount field devices on the FISCO compliant intrinsically safe Tankbus.
- Collect and transfer data from one or several tanks to the control room.
- Save installation cost by using the bus powered intrinsically safe two-wire Tankbus.
- Choose between several control room communication possibilities, including Modbus, IEC 62591 (WirelessHART® protocol) and emulation of other vendors’ protocols.
