Introduction
1.1 HCU board

The optional HCU board is used in Enraf servo gauges 854 ATG, 854 XTG, Enraf 873 SmartRadar and Enraf Field Indicator 877 FDI to interface optional equipment as: spot temperature element; average temperature element; water bottom probe; pressure transmitters.
and to provide for an analog level output. This option board has two HART channels: HART input 1, standard used for the Enraf 762 VITO Interface; HART input 2, standard used for the connection of pressure transmitters for HIMS, HTG or vapour pressure measurement.
Note 1:
HTG: Hydrostatic Tank Gauging; only applicable with 877 FDI. HIMS is available with the level gauges (servo and radar). Vapour pressure measurement is mostly performed on pressurized vessels with the level gauges.
Note 2:
Standard, the 762 VITO Interface is connected to HART input 1 and pressure transmitters are connected to HART input 2 of the optional HCU board. It must be verified that the maximum values for current and power of the HCU option board HART input 2 circuit are not exceeding the maximum values of the connected HART pressure transmitters. If the values of HART input 2 circuit are too high, then connect the pressure transmitters to HART input 1 and the 762 VITO Interface to HART input 2 (only possible when HART input 1 is available).
1.2 ICU_HPI board

The optional ICU_HPI board is used in Enraf 973 SmartRadar LT and 971 SmartRadar LTi to interface optional equipment as: spot temperature element; average temperature element; water bottom probe; pressure transmitters.
Note:
Analog level output with the 971 and 973 SmartRadar LT(i) is provided by the optional ICU_HPO board.
For a description of these functions, refer to section 1.1. The ICU_HPI board has the same input functions as the HCU board; the only difference is its shape, which makes it to fit in the 971/973 SmartRadar LT(i).

Emulation mode TPU-2 / HSU HPU HPU HSU MPU HCU MPU HCU
Notes:
1 Option codes: V, W and X are not available with the 970 / 971 / 973 SmartRadar types as the analog level output is provided by the ICU_HPO option board. 2 Please note that with option code Y in the 970 / 971 / 973 SmartRadar types, the analog level output is provided by the ICU_HPO option board. 3 Option code Y is not available in the 854 XTG servo gauge. 4 Option code U can only be available in the 854 XTG servo gauge without connection for 977 TSI Tank Side Indicator (in 854 ATG connection for 977 TSI is possible). 5 HART devices can be: - HART pressure transmitters for HIMS / HTG configuration or vapour pressure measurement; - HART water bottom sensor e.g. Side mounted water probe. 6 With sales code Y (all HCU functions), the spot temperature measurement is disabled if the VITO temperature (and water) probe is present.
1.4 HCU compatibility

The HCU board can be used to replace an existing optional board in the 854, 873 and 877 gauges. However, it requires some checking if more boards in the instrument must be updated or external equipment must be replaced. The HCU board can be used to replace the following optional boards: HPU board (for average temperature measurement, restricted to MTT or VITO probes only) HSU board (for spot temperature measurement, restricted to Pt100 RTDs only)
Note:
Read carefully the installation guide of the HCU board before starting to replace the existing option board.
Page 7
Introduction 1.4.1 Replacement or adding optional board in 854 ATG or 854 XTG servo gauges
The HCU optional board requires an XPU-2 board in the 854 ATG and 854 XTG servo gauges. If there is no XPU-2 board installed, then the installed XPU (or XPU-1) board must be replaced by an XPU-2 board.
Notes:
1 When the HCU board is used to replace an optional board with average temperature measurement, please note the following: The 863 MRT with 862 MIR or the 864 MTT with 862 MIT temperature connection cannot be maintained. The 864 MTT can be connected to the 762 VITO Interface for connection to the HCU board; The 863 MRT cannot be connected to the 762 VITO Interface. 2 The optional data transmission channel on the XPU-2 (i.s. channel for 977 TSI or RS-232C/RS-485 channel) is only possible when backplane-2 is installed. Backplane-2 is standard installed in instruments 854 ATG with series number: 854-20-400 and higher; 854 XTG with series number: 894-02-001 and higher.
1.4.2 Replacement or adding optional board in 873 SmartRadar

The HCU optional board can be installed in the 873 SmartRadar without any problem. Refer to Note 1 section 1.4.1.
1.4.3 Replacement or adding optional board in 877 FDI Field Display & Interface
The HCU optional board can be installed in an 877 FDI Field Display & Interface when there is an XPU or XPU-1 board. However, be informed that water bottom measurement with the VITO probe or Side mounted water probe is not possible. If this function is required, then the installed XPU (or XPU-1) board must be replaced by an XPU-2 board. Refer to note 1 in section 1.4.1.
Note:
The optional data transmission channel on the XPU-2 (i.s. channel for 977 TSI or RS-232C/RS-485 channel) is only possible when backplane-2 is installed. Backplane-2 is standard installed in indicators 877 FDI with series number: 877-17-001 and higher.

2.1 Introduction into HIMS

The HIMS (Hybrid Inventory Management System) combines the direct mass measurement as used with HTG (Hydrostatic Tank Gauging) with the level gauge principle to one powerful system. All tank quantities as level, volume, mass, density, etc. can be measured and calculated. For level measurement can be used the Enraf series 854 ATG / XTG servo gauge or the Enraf series SmartRadar gauge. The HIMS option is also available with the 877 FDI (Field Display & Interface). Pressure transmitters communicating with the HART protocol can be used.
2.1.1 HIMS calculations

The pressure transmitters P1 and P3 used with an HIMS system are of the differential type. That means one side (low pressure side) is open to atmosphere. P3 is not required for tanks which are free vented to atmosphere and with floating roof tanks. A temperature measuring device is optional and only required when standard volume and reference density is to be calculated. The pressure measured by P1 is the result of the static liquid head above P1 (height h) and the pressure in the vapour space, measured by P3. The liquid height above P1 is the level (l), measured by the level gauge, minus the distance LP. LP represents the distance between the tank zero point (datum plate) and the zero point of P1. The observed density is calculated as: P7 1 Level & LP LG Figure 2.1 Principle HIMS configuration

The measured level and (optionally) temperature, and the calculated observed density are transmitted to the tank gauging system. The tank gauging system (an Enraf Entis system, Enraf CIUPlus or other host system) needs the Tank Capacity Table and optionally the ASTM table to calculate the Gross Observed Volume, Mass, and optionally the Gross Standard Volume and reference density.

HIMS 2.1.2 Corrections for ambient air and vapour density

Ambient air density correction The pressure at the atmospheric side measured by pressure transmitter P1, compared to P3, is increased by the column of air over the distance (LM - LP). Refer to figure 2.1. That is compensated in the calculated pressure P7 by the term: (LM - LP) x RF x LG where: LM LP RF LG : : : : [Pa]
distance zero point tank to zero point pressure transmitter P3 [m] distance zero point tank to zero point pressure transmitter P1 [m] ambient air density [kg/m3] local gravity acceleration [m/s2]
The default value for the ambient air density (item RF) is set at 1.225 kg/m3 (floating point format).
Vapour density correction The vapour space above the product in a fixed roof tank consists of a mixture from air and product vapour. The density of this vapour mixture in the tank is different from the density of the air outside the tank. That is compensated in the calculated pressure P7 by the term: (LM - Level) x RG x LG where: LM Level RG LG : : : : [Pa]
distance zero point tank to zero point pressure transmitter P3 [m] measured level from level gauge [m] vapour density [kg/m3] local gravity acceleration [m/s2]
The default value for the vapour density (item RG) is set at 1.25 kg/m3 (floating point format).
Pressure P7 The pressure difference (P1 - P3), compensated for ambient air density and vapour density (item P7) is calculated as: P7 = (P1 - P3) + (LM - LP) x RF x LG - (LM - Level) x RG x LG [Pa]
Density in air With the default values used in items RF and RG, the observed density is the density in vacuum.

2.2.5 Compensation for pressure transmitter P1 position

The tank shell will bulge due to the hydrostatic pressure caused by the liquid stored in the tank. This can have an influence on the position of pressure transmitter P1 (refer to figure 2.3). The amount of movement of pressure transmitter P1 depends on the height of P1 above the bottom, the structure of the tank shell and the density of the product. In many cases, pressure transmitter P1 is located as low as possible to the tank bottom and the influence of tank shell bulging is negligible. However, in those cases where the influence is present, items IF and IL can be used to compensate for the position of pressure transmitter P1. Item IF (hydrostatic deformation factor) decreases distance LP for (IF) mm/m level above the level IL (hydrostatic deformation level). In formula: LPcomp. = LPprogr. - (Level - IL) x IF where: LPcomp. LPprogr. Level IL IF [m]

3.1 Introduction into HTG

An HTG (Hydrostatic Tank Gauge) system measures the tank quantities by means of pressure transmitters. Depending on the configuration, one to three pressure transmitters are required. The pressure transmitters, communicating with the HART protocol, are connected to an 877 FDI (Field Display & Interface). Unlike level based tank gauges, as servo or radar, the HTG system is a direct mass measurement system. One pressure transmitter (P1), located at a shell nozzle near the bottom, is used to measure the liquid head. A second pressure transmitter (P2) is located approximately 2 to 2.5 metres (6 to 8 feet) above P1. If there exists a pressure in the vapour space, the vapour pressure must be measured with a separate pressure transmitter (P3). P3 is not required on a floating roof tank, or with a free vented cone roof tank.
3.1.1 HTG calculations

The pressure transmitters used with an HTG system are of the differential type. That means one side (low pressure side) is open to atmosphere. A temperature measuring device is optional and only required when standard volume and reference density is to be calculated. The principle HTG formulas for level and observed density are: Observed density is calculated as: Dens.obs. ' P1 & P2 1 LS LG [kg /m 3]
Level is calculated as: Level ' P1 & P3 LS % LP P1 & P2 [m]
where: P1 P2 P3 LG LS LP

The calculated level and observed density and (optional) measured temperature are transmitted to the tank gauging system. The tank gauging system (an Enraf Entis system, Enraf CIUPlus or other host system) needs the Tank Capacity Table and (optionally) the ASTM table to calculate the Mass, Gross Observed Volume, and optionally the Gross Standard Volume and reference density. When the product density is known and does not change, pressure transmitter P2 is not required. The density will be a manual input value, from which the level can be calculated by: Level ' P1 & P3 1 % LP Dens.obs. LG [m]

where: Vol.heel Areaeq.
: :

Enraf transmits the calculated HTG level and observed density values to the tank gauging system (Entis, CIUPlus or other host system). In the tank gauging system the Gross Observed Volume is obtained from the level value via the tank capacity table. Then Mass is calculated as: Mass = Gross Observed Volume x Dens. obs. This is equivalent to the standard HTG mass calculation as is shown in the following conversion equations: Mass = Gross Observed Volume x Dens. obs. Mass = (Level x Areaeq.) x Dens.obs Mass = (Level - LP) x Areaeq. x Dens.obs. + LP x Areaeq. x Dens.obs. substitute of HTG level and density formulas gives: Mass ' P1 & P3 LS % LP & LP P1 & P2 Areaeq. P1 & P2 1 % Vol.heel Dens.obs. LS LG
the above formula can be reduced to: Mass ' (P1 & P3 ) Areaeq. 1 % Vol.heel Dens.obs. LG
which is the standard HTG mass formula.

HTG 3.1.3 Corrections for ambient air and vapour density

Ambient air density The pressure at the atmospheric side measured by pressure transmitter P1, compared to P2 and to P3, is increased by the column of air over respectively the distances LS and (LM - LP). Refer to figure 2.1. That is compensated in the calculated pressures P7 and P8 by the terms: (LM - LP) x RF x LG LS x RF x LG where: LM LP LS RF LG [Pa] [Pa] for P7 (P1 - P3) for P8 (P1 - P2)

The default value for the ambient air density (item RF) is set at: 1.225 kg/m3 (floating point format).
Vapour density correction The vapour space above the product in a fixed roof tank consists of a mixture from air and product vapour. The density of this vapour mixture in the tank is different from the density of the air outside the tank. That is compensated in the calculated pressure P7 by the term: (LM - Level) x RG x LG where: LM Level RG LG [Pa]

Pressures P7 and P8 The pressure differences (P1 - P3) and (P1 - P2), compensated for ambient air density and vapour density, are: P7 = (P1 - P3) + (LM - LP) x RF x LG - (LM - Level) x RG x LG P8 = (P1 - P2) + LS x RF x LG [Pa] [Pa]

Item HQ is non-explicit. However, after conversion the level (item HQ) can directly be obtained: P1 & P3 % (LM & LP ) (RF & RG ) LG % LP HQ ' DQ & RG
Density in air With the default values used in items RF and RG, the observed density is the density in vacuum. If the density value is required as density in air, then item RF must be set to 0, and from item RG the value of the ambient air density must be subtracted. The table below summarizes the values for items RF and RG for density in vacuum and density in air.

The vapour pressure measured on spheres, spheroids, bullets, etc. is used in the calculation of the Total Gross Standard Volume. That is the volume which includes the amount of evaporated product in the vapour space. The vapour pressure measurement can be integrated in the Enraf level gauge. The following level gauges can be equipped with an option board to measure the vapour pressure: 854 ATG servo gauge SmartRadar with high pressure antenna
Alternatively, the vapour pressure measurement can be connected to an 877 FDI (Field Display & interface) with an appropriate option board. Pressure transmitters communicating with the HART protocol can be connected to the Enraf gauges with the optional HCU or ICU_HPI board. The measured pressure by the roof pressure transmitter (P3) is transmitted to the tank gauging system. The tank gauging system (an Enraf Entis system, Enraf CIUPlus or other host system) performs the corrections on the Gross Standard Volume and Mass for the amount of product in the vapour space.

5.1 Maintenance
For preventive maintenance on the pressure transmitters, refer to the maintenance instructions of the used pressure transmitters. It is recommended to check the zero calibration of the pressure transmitters once per year. Refer to Appendix H.
5.2 Troubleshooting HIMS

This section is intended as a help in finding the cause with start-up problems and when no correct reading of the pressure or density is obtained. 1) No or incorrect level reading. Please refer to the section maintenance / trouble shooting of the instruction manual from the used level gauge (servo or radar). An incorrect level reading results in a wrong volume reading and wrong density reading, but mass remains unaffected. 2) No pressure value with items P1 and P3. Check item PA (available pressure transmitters); Request for items EH and QF. Decode the displayed error codes as given in sections 5.5 and 5.6. Find from the decoded message the cause of the problem; Check the wiring from the pressure transmitters to the instrument terminals (mind the polarity!); Check if the pressure transmitters are correctly configured (refer to Appendix G); Check the voltage on the instrument terminals for the pressure transmitter: HART input 2 (recommended) Unloaded 1 transmitter 2 transmitters HART input 1

The current on the HART communication line is obvious: - with 1 transmitter: 4 mA - with 2 transmitters: 8 mA 3) The HIMS observed density does not correspond with the real density from the product. If the difference is 0.18%, then it can be explained from the method of pressure transmitter calibration. Some pressure transmitters are calibrated with water column at 20 C, while water has a density of 1000 kg/m3 at 4 C. If this is the case, then correct item LG (local gravity) with 0.18%; Check zero calibration of pressure transmitters (refer to Appendix H); If there exists a density difference at mainly lower levels (thus not at higher levels), then the cause must be found in a wrong value for item LP. Check on distance LP. Eventually check the level gauge on its correct reading; If there is more or less a constant density difference, check on settings of items: LG, LM, RF, RG (or RJ).

Maintenance and Troubleshooting 5.3 Troubleshooting HTG

This section is intended as a help in finding the cause with start-up problems and when no correct reading of the mass, density, level, pressure or volume is obtained. 1) 877 FDI does not start-up correctly; no level / density indication. Please refer to the section service / trouble shooting of the instruction manual 877 FDI. Check items: IM, HT, OB and PA. 2) No pressure value with items P1, P2 and P3. Check item PA (available pressure transmitters); Request for items EH and QF. Decode the displayed error codes as given in sections 5.5 and 5.6. Find from the decoded message the cause of the problem; Check the wiring from the pressure transmitters to the instrument terminals (mind the polarity!); Check if the pressure transmitters are correctly configured (refer to Appendix G); Check the voltage on the instrument terminals for the pressure transmitter: HART input 2 (recommended) Unloaded 1 transmitter 2 transmitters 3 transmitters HART input 1

The current on the HART communication line is obvious: - with 1 transmitter: 4 mA - with 2 transmitters: 8 mA - with 3 transmitters: 12 mA 3) The HTG mass value does not correspond with the real mass in the tank. If the deviation is more or less a constant offset value, and the level and observed density calculations are correct, and the volume shows also an offset value, then the problem must be found in the strapping tables (incorrect data). If the deviation is more or less a constant offset value, and the calculated level and volume shows a similar offset, while the calculated observed density is correct, then item LP (distance P1 - tank zero) should be adjusted. If the deviation is not a constant offset value, check pressure transmitters P1 and P3 (zero calibration). 4) The HTG calculated observed density does not correspond with the real density from the product. If the difference is 0.18%, then it can be explained from the method of pressure transmitter calibration. Some pressure transmitters are calibrated with water column at 20 C, while water has a density of 1000 kg/m3 at 4 C. If this is the case, then correct item LG (local gravity) with 0.18%; 5) The HTG calculated observed density and calculated level (and hence, volume) are deviating from the real value. There is a situation in where the HTG system (which is a direct mass measurement system), cannot give an accurate density, level and volume reading. That is the case when the product is stratified in density. Even when the product was homogeneous when it was loaded into the tank, it can become stratified as the heavier parts in the product are settling down. The HTG system then measures a too high density, and hence level and volume are calculated too low. Mass however, is unaffected by stratification. Check zero calibration of pressure transmitters (refer to Appendix H).

Appendix Appendix B1 Assessment of distance LP for HIMS

In this Appendix three methods are described to obtain the distance: zero point tank - zero point pressure transmitter P1 (item LP).
B1.1
LP determination from measurement
The principle of this method consist of five measurements (refer to figure below). When performed well, the distance LP can be determined within 2 mm. Step 1) Level This is the level reading of the level gauge. Make sure it is indicating the correct value (level). Step 2) Ullage Perform a manual ullage measurement from a dip hatch located closed to the pressure transmitter P1 (ullage). Roof distance This is the distance from the selected dip hatch to a horizontal flat place on the tank railing above pressure transmitter P1 (roof distance). We advise to measure this distance with a theodolite (optical measuring device), to bring over the horizontal distance from the levelled rod on the dip hatch to the levelled rod next to the tank railing. TX distance Measure the distance from the horizontal flat place on the tank railing to the top of the pressure transmitter flange (TX height). Use a measuring tape and perform this measurement at a time there is no (hard) wind. TX centre With most pressure transmitters, the centre of the measuring diaphragm is also at the centre of the mounting flange (TX centre). For example: a 2", 150 lbs flange has a centre distance of 76.2 mm.
Step 3)
Step 4)
Step 5)
Calculate LP:
LP = level + ullage + roof distance - TX height - TX centre

This method is fast and easy, provided that the tank is filled for not more than half of its capacity and the product is homogeneous. LP can be found from the following formula:

Note:
If the density value is provided by the lab, make sure it is re-calculated to the observed density value at the actual product temperature.
B1.3
LP determined by linear regression
With this method a number of readings are taken over the full measuring range. The readings taken are: Level and P7.
Note:
This method can only be followed when the product is homogeneous. Hence for products with density stratification, this method cannot be used. The measurements can only be taken with the same product. In practice this means, one start with a full tank and take the readings after a batch is dispatched. A set of at least 8 to 10 measurement over the measuring range should be taken to get a good result. It can take several days before the measurements are completed. Request the Level from the level gauge and request for P7 by means of the Portable Enraf Terminal (item P7). At the end of the test run, all gathered data can be processed in a spread sheet program to calculate the pressure regression line. Where the regression line of the pressure value crosses the zero line of the pressure-axis, the corresponding level value on the level-axis represents the distance LP. As an example, the following Level and P7 values are taken, and the figure shows the regression line.

Appendix Appendix B2 Assessment of distance LP (and LS) for HTG

In this Appendix three methods are described to obtain the distance: zero point tank - zero point pressure transmitter P1 (item LP).
B2.1
LP determination from measurement
The principle of this method consist of five measurements (refer to figure below). When performed well, the distance LP can be determined within 2 mm. Step 1) Level The level can be taken from an innage dip at the datum plate, or from a manual ullage measurement at the upper reference point. Take the level reading (level). Step 2) Ullage Perform a manual ullage measurement from a dip hatch located closed to the pressure transmitter P1 (ullage). Roof distance This is the distance from the selected dip hatch to a horizontal flat place on the tank railing above pressure transmitter P1(roof distance). We advise to measure this distance with a theodolite (optical measuring device), to bring over the horizontal distance from the levelled rod on the dip hatch to the levelled rod next to the tank railing. TX distance Measure the distance from the horizontal flat place on the tank railing to the top of the pressure transmitter flange (TX height). Use a measuring tape and perform this measurement at a time there is no (hard) wind.

Appendix B2.2 LP derived from mass calculation
As the HTG system is a direct mass measuring system, it is obvious to calibrate the HTG system by means of a mass comparison method. First of all, a good guess is made for the distance LP. In the worst case, LP can be left at zero. The mass of the product in the tank, measured by the HTG system, will be compared with the mass, measured and calculated in the traditional way or by means of another mass measuring system (such as mass-flow meters).
Note:
Before applying this method the density measurement (and thus distance LS) must be correct, as the density is used in the heel mass. The traditional way is: manual dip (or ullage dip from URP, then convert to innage) find volume in tank capacity table measure the temperature from the product perform a density sample calculate the reference density calculate the standard volume calculate mass as standard volume times reference density
The outcome from this mass calculation (or from another mass measuring device) is then compared to the mass reading of the HTG system. Find distance LP with a trial and error method.
B2.3
LP (and LS) determined by linear regression
With this method a number of level readings are taken over the full measuring range. The level reading from the HTG system and the level reading from a manual measurement are compared.
Note:
Although the HTG system is a direct mass measurement system, the calibration described below is based on level measurement. The level measurement from an HTG system is not that accurate that it can be used in a calibration method for a mass measurement system. The reason that this method is described, is that it is a relative simple method. In general we do not recommend this method.
Note:
This method can only be followed when the product is homogeneous. Hence for products with density stratification, this method cannot be used. Recall the basic HTG level formula:
Level '
P1 & P3 LS % LP P1 & P2
An error in the distance LS will cause a gain error in the HTG level reading, and an error in the distance LP will cause an offset error in the HTG level reading. Take a good guess for the values of items LP and LS.
The measurements can only be taken with the same product. In practice this means, one start with a full tank and take the readings after a batch is dispatched. A set of at least 8 to 10 measurement over the measuring range should be taken to get a good result. It can take several days before the measurements are completed. At the end of the test run, all gathered data can be processed in a spread sheet program. As an example, the following level data is taken: (LP=+000.7500 m and LS=+002.1000 m) Manual level [m] 17.238 15.755 14.582 13.290 11.563 10.051 8.491 7.327 5.272 4.783 HTG level [m] 16.7998 15.4041 14.2574 12.9826 11.3063 9.8184 8.3102 7.1500 5.1616 4.6730 Delta level [mm] 438.2 350.9 324.6 307.4 256.7 232.6 180.8 177.0 110.4 110.0 Regression data from level difference (against manual level) Constant: Slope: 0.014946 m 0.024347 m/m From the level difference (defined as: Manual level - HTG level), a regression line is calculated. From this regression line data, correction factors can be obtained for the distances LP and LS. The first approximation for the correction factor for LP is: LPcorr. = Constant + Slope x LP A second (and perhaps third) recalculation may be required to find the proper correction factor for LP: LPcorr. = Constant + Slope x (LP + LPcorr.) The recalculation can be terminated when the difference between the last correction factor and the one before the last one is 0.0015 m. Distance LP then becomes: LP = LP + LPcorr

The table at the right upper corner shows the calculation results for the example and the figure shows (a part) of the regression line with the relevant data used in this calculation example.
B2.4
LS derived from calculation of density sample
The distance LS can be calculated from a known density (taken by a sample) and the pressure value P8. The HTG density formula can be re-arranged to calculate the distance LS:
LS '
P8 Dens.obs. LG
All data are measured when the level in the tank is not moving and mixers are shut off. To perform density sampling, a dip hatch must be opened, and time should be given to vent eventually over pressure and to stabilize the pressure readings. P8 : The pressure P8 is read by means of the PET (Portable Enraf Terminal). Take more than one reading with a sufficient time interval (for instance: 5 readings with an interval of one minute each). Average the readings. The value of item LG can also be requested by the PET or copied from the Set-up/Maintenance form or log-file of the 877 FDI. This is the value from the manual density sample which must be taken. The best place to take the density sample is as close as possible to the place where the pressure transmitters P1 and P2 are installed. The samples can only be taken over the height between pressure transmitters P1 and P2. Make sure the density sample is an average density sample over this height. Since the density required is an observed density value, the product temperature must be measured as well. If from Lab analyses a reference density is provided, recalculate it to the observed density value.

Note:
Mind to take the same type of density in the HTG and sample: density in air or density in vacuum.

The barometric pressure decreases with the height above sea level. If for the average barometric pressure at sea level is taken 1013 mbar, then the barometric pressure at different heights is given as: Height above sea [m] 0 500 1000 1500 Barometric pressure [m] 1013 955 899 846
The graph below gives the air density at different temperatures and different heights above sea level according to the barometric pressure given in the table above. Select for item RF a value, according to the height above sea and the average ambient temperature throughout the year. For example: Netherlands; a country at sea level height; average barometric pressure: 1013 mbar; average day-time temperature: 15 C. Then, for the ambient air density, a value of 1.218 kg/m3 is found.

Appendix Appendix E Vapour density (items RG and RJ)

The area above the liquid in a fixed roof tank contains a mixture of air and product vapour. The amount of evaporated product depends on the vapour pressure of the liquid, which is a function of the temperature. The higher the temperature, the more product evaporates. The density of the gas mix above the product can be calculated with the formula of the gas density, using the vapour pressure as a relation between the amount of evaporated product and air. The formula is:
Dens.gas mix '
0.012027 (Pvap. Mliq. % (Pamb. & Pvap. ) Mair ) 273.15 % T
[kg /m 3]

[kg/m3] [ C] [mbar] [g] [mbar] [g]
For atmospheric tanks, Pamb. is the average barometric pressure. If there is some over pressure, then Pamb. must reflect this over pressure value. In general, lighter products evaporate more (have a higher vapour pressure) than heavier products. As an example, the tank gas density of two different products is given in the table below. The products are: Methanol (Mliq. = 32.04 g) and Isopropyl benzene (Mliq. = 120.2 g). Methanol Temperature [ C] 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 Pvapour [mbar] 40 54 72 95 125 163 211 270 342 RG / RJ [kg/m3] 1.297 1.276 1.256 1.237 1.220 1.204 1.190 1.178 1.167 Temperature [ C] 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 Isopropyl benzene Pvapour [mbar] 1.1 1.6 2.3 3.2 4.4 6.1 8.3 11.1 14.7 RG / RJ [kg/m3] 1.296 1.275 1.255 1.237 1.220 1.206 1.194 1.185 1.178
Both products appear to have nearly the same tank gas density due to the mechanism that heavier products evaporates less than lighter products. In case of a floating roof tank, or a tank with an inner floating roof, the tank gas density can be set equal to the ambient air density.
Density in air With the true value of the tank gas density used in item RG (or RJ), the product density is calculated as density in vacuum. If the product density is required as density in air, then the value of the ambient air density must be subtracted form the found value for the tank gas density in item RG (or RJ). Refer also to appendix D.

Appendix Appendix F1 Define values for hydrostatic deformation (items IF and IL) for HIMS
If the installation of pressure transmitter P1 is such that movement due to tank shell bulging occurs, then items IF and IL can be programmed to compensate for that movement. But first, the amount of movement must be known. This Appendix describes a method of measuring the movement of pressure transmitter P1 and calculates from the measuring results the hydrostatic deformation factor (item IF) and hydrostatic deformation level (item IL).

Measure and calculate the hydrostatic deformation compensation items IF and IL On pressure transmitter P1 should be a mark for the zero line of the pressure transmitter. If there is not such a mark, just make one. A (temporary) fixed and stable horizontal area should be made available as a reference point for the height measurements. For instance, a heavy block of metal, made horizontal by sand or wood pieces. The height measurements could be made with a dip tape, or by a ruler. Use with all measurements one and the same instrument. Note with each measurement the height to the mark on P1 and the liquid level in the tank. At least a set of 8 to 10 measurements over the full measuring range of the tank should be taken for a good result.

In this example, for the first 5 metres level, distance LP does not change. Then, when there is more product in the tank, distance LP starts to decrease. From the point where LP decreases, a best fit line (regression line) is drawn through the measuring points. The slope of this line (0.332 mm/m) is the figure to be used in item IF. The point where this line crosses the line of measured point where LP did not change yet is used as the value in item IL (4.021 m).

Appendix Appendix F2 Define values for hydrostatic deformation (items IF and IL) for HTG
If the installation of pressure transmitters P1 and P2 is such that movement due to tank shell bulging occurs, then items IF and IL can be programmed to compensate for that movement. But first, the amount of movement must be known. The movement of pressure transmitters P1 and P2 can simply be measured by a (calibrated) measuring tape (or ruler) at several product levels. Use with all measurements the same instrument. The distance to be measured is the distance between the zero lines on the pressure transmitters P1 and P2 (if present). When such a zero line is not present, the distance between any other fixed point on the pressure transmitter will do. Even a mark on the flanges of P1 and P2. Note also the product level with each measurement of distance LS. For a good result at least a set of 8 to 10 measurements over the measuring range of the tank should be taken. Then from the measuring results the hydrostatic deformation factor (item IF) and hydrostatic deformation level (item IL) can be calculated. As an example some data is given from which the calculations are made to determine the values for IF and IL: Level [m] 17.238 15.755 14.582 13.290 11.563 10.051 8.491 7.327 5.272 4.783 2.385 1.234 Distance LS [m] 2.156 2.155 2.154 2.154 2.153 2.152 2.152 2.151 2.150 2.150 2.150 2.150

Zero trim: Zero trimming the pressure transmitter is necessary in order to compensate for the mounting position errors. It should be done with the transmitter installed in its final mounting position with only static pressure applied. I.e. the drain and vent plug must be open and the isolation valve must be closed. Let the temperature stabilise for 10 to 15 minutes, in order to reduce influence caused by temperature gradients in the sensor body. The following procedure can only be followed when the transmitters DDL is installed in the HART communicator. If this is not the case, then zero trimming has to be done by means of items O1, O2 and O3. From this menu: Select Device setup by pressing the key.

Appendix Appendix H Zero calibration of pressure transmitters

After installation, the pressure transmitters will have a small offset. This offset is caused by the mounting position and hence a zero calibration is required. Proceed as follows (refer to the figure): Close the isolation valve.
vent plug
Caution
Having the isolation valve closed for prolonged periods while the vent and drain plugs are closed, can permanent damage the pressure transmitters.
drain plug isolation valve (ball valve)
Open the vent and drain plug and drain the product from the transmitter body and piping. Allow a 5 minute stabilizing period.
