TRACERCO™ Density Gauge
The TRACERCO™ Density Gauge is a non-intrusive,
non-wetted field instrument which utilizes advanced nucleonic
measurement technology.
The TRACERCO™ Density Gauge utilizes advanced
HART™ technology, which means there is;
- A HART™ Digital Interface allowing direct
communicators via the customer’s DCS system
- A full HART™ protocol allowing asset management
Incorporation of HART™ technology in the field
mounted detector allows communication via the customer’s
DCS and eliminates the need for safe-area mounted control
units.
The TRACERCO™ Density Gauge has a number of
key features that differentiate it from the other industrial
level gauges:
- It provides real-time in line or in vessel measurements
- It has no moving or wetted parts, leading to reduced
maintenance and high reliability
- The instrument detector is externally mounted, allowing
it to cope with the harshest process conditions, fluids
or solids
- Flameproof enclosure certified EEx d IIC T5. Suitable
for Zone 1 operation
- Automatic compensation for source decay
- External automatic compensation for changes in vessel
operating pressure
- Linear, table and logarithmic linearisation options
for level correction
- Extensive self-checking and diagnostic facilities
