Connecting you tank farm to your control room can be challenging. Long distances and remote tank locations makes cabling a significant cost when building new tanks. And in brownfield installations the wiring is often old, does not meet modern best practices and may be in poor condition.
The wireless Rosemount Tank Gauging System provides the simplest way to access your bulk storage measurements. It is based on IEC 62591 (WirelessHART®), the industry standard for wireless field networks. Reducing field wiring leads to substantial savings in infrastructure and design. The time between project start-up and an up-and-running is drastically reduced, and installation and commissioning savings are up to 70 percent vs a wired network.
Both wired and wireless networks can co-exist within the same system, which enables upgrading tank-by-tank. It is also possible to add a wireless connection to tanks within the wired network to achieve communication redundancy.
