You decide the pace, and the money you save along the way is available for new investments.
Emulation enables easy and cost-efficient step-by-step upgrade of your tank gauging system. You can seamlessly replace old and malfunctioning level gauges from all major suppliers, with modern and reliable devices based on radar technology.
Do you have problems with old mechanical devices and find replacement of your tank gauging system too complex and costly?
Is it hard to get replacement devices? Spares reaching end of life or being hard to integrate in the existing system?
Are you experiencing problems with malfunctioning newer devices in certain applications?
Emulation technology enables a seamless step-by-step system upgrade, from tanks to the control room. No need for new field wiring makes installation quick and cost-efficient.
Tank gauging emulation enables users to easily replace old level gauges from all major suppliers with modern radar level gauges incrementally, one gauge at a time, with minimal disruption and without the need for a large-scale CAPEX project.
Upgrades can proceed as the situation demands and when budget is available.
The new gauges “talk the language” of the old so there is no need to make any changes to the communication or field wiring, and you can use the existing host system.
Different inventory management systems can be seamlessly replaced with the Rosemount™ TankMaster software which continues to communicate with the field devices in use, often with a better update rate than before.
The Rosemount™ 2460 System Hub supports emulation of other vendors’ control room devices, enabling gauges from different suppliers to be connected to TankMaster.
