Gas & Flame Detection of Floating Roof Tanks
Gas detection and flame detection safety solutions for the oil and gas industry
Keep Floating Roof Tanks Safe with Gas & Flame Detectors
Atmospheric storage tanks store or mix flammable and combustible liquids in a variety of ways. In an external floating roof tank, the floating roof rises and falls with the level of the surface liquid helping to minimize liquid loss through evaporation. When crude oil and petroleum products are stored in these tanks, there is a risk of vapor leaks around the rim seal. These vapors have the potential to ignite, destroying the rim seal and causing a fire, unless first detected by a suitable detector. Rosemount™ gas detectors monitor and detect combustible gas/vapors, triggering warning systems and helping to prevent a potential fire. If a fire does start, Rosemount flame detectors can detect flames of differing fuel types and at various distances to help keep your people and assets safe.

Product Solutions
The Rosemount Incus Ultrasonic Gas Leak Detector utilizes four ultra-sensitive acoustic sensors that constantly monitor wide areas for ultrasound generated from the release of pressurized gas. Ideally suited for monitoring well-ventilated outdoor environments, the ultrasonic gas leak detector has been engineered to withstand the most extreme conditions and is unaffected by inclement weather, wind, leak direction, and gas dilution or stratification.
- Instantaneous response to all gas leaks (toxic gases, combustible gases or inert gases)
- No calibration required
- Quad sensing heads provide the widest overall gas detection range available on the market: 2 to 40 meters (7 to 130 feet)

The Rosemount 928 Wireless Gas Monitor detects hydrogen sulfide (H
2S), carbon monoxide (CO), and oxygen depletion (O
2) in remote applications previously too challenging and costly to monitor. This wireless toxic gas monitoring system enhances worker safety through early gas leak detection, simply integrates with
WirelessHART® technology, and eliminates the need for expensive wiring. The Rosemount 928 Wireless Gas Monitor easily connects to the Rosemount 628 Universal Gas Sensor which consists of a tool-less-hot-swappable smart sensor module.
- Hot-swappable electrochemical sensor module with end-of-life diagnostics can be installed in the field without tools
- Replaceable, intrinsically safe lithium-thionyl chloride power module has over two years of service life and can be easily exchanged in hazardous field locations
- WirelessHART technology is secure, cost-effective and delivers >99% data reliability
