Rosemount 5900 Series
Section 2. Overview
TankMaster HMI Software
TankMaster
is a powerful Windows-based Human Machine Interface (HMI) for
complete tank inventory management. It provides configuration, service,
set-up, inventory, and custody transfer functions for
Rosemount Raptor
systems and other supported instruments.
TankMaster
is designed to be used in the Microsoft
®
Windows XP and Vista
environment providing easy access to measurement data from your Local
Area Network.
The
TankMaster WinOpi
program lets the operator monitor measured tank
data. It includes alarm handling, batch reports, automatic report handling,
historical data sampling as well as inventory calculations such as Volume,
Observed Density and other parameters. A plant host computer can be
connected for further processing of data.
The
TankMaster WinSetup
program
is a graphical user interface for
installation, configuration and service of the different devices in the
Rosemount Raptor
system.
Rosemount 2160 Field Communication Unit
The 2160 field communication unit (FCU) is a data concentrator that
continuously polls and stores data from field devices such as radar level
gauges and temperature transmitters in a buffer memory. Whenever a request
for data is received, the FCU can immediately send data from a group of tanks
from the updated buffer memory.
Rosemount 2410 Tank Hub
The Rosemount 2410 tank hub acts as a power supply to the connected field
devices in the hazardous area using the intrinsically safe Raptor Tankbus.
The Rosemount 2410 tank hub collects measurement data and status
information from field devices on a tank. It has two external buses for
communication with various host systems.
Rosemount 5900 Radar Level Gauge
The
Rosemount 5900
radar level gauge is an intelligent instrument for
measuring the product level inside a tank. Different antennas can be used in
order to meet the requirements of different applications. The 5900 can
measure the level of almost any product, including bitumen, crude oil, refined
products, aggressive chemicals, LPG and LNG.
The
Rosemount 5900
sends microwaves towards the surface of the product
in the tank. The level is calculated based on the echo from the surface. No
part of the 5900 is in actual contact with the product in the tank, and the
antenna is the only part of the gauge that is exposed to the tank atmosphere.
The 5900
2-in-1
option makes the radar level gauge redundant to electric
circuit failure. Two separate radar units in the same transmitter head allows
two independent level measurements using one antenna.
