Tank gauging/monitoring is an important aspect to maintaining above ground and underground tanks. That is why tank gauge sticks are used, it’s primarily used to measure the depth of liquid in a tank. The common best practice for measuring tanks are: First apply gas gauging paste on the stick, slowly lower the gauge stick, let the stick gently touch the bottom, and quickly bring it back up. Read the depth of the fuel indicated by the wet mark on the stick to the nearest 1/8 inch.
Every so often we get questions regarding Electronic Meter Registration or also better known as the Veeder Root EMR3. I’d like to take the time out to explain some of the key benefits of this system. The purpose of the EMR3 system is to count with precision the liquid inventory and to manage the delivery operations.
We recently setup a 12 volt transfer pump & above ground tank for a Long Island farmer who is taking a step closer to fast effective fueling. The 500 Gallon double wall tank comes equipped with a Fill Rite FR3210B 12 volt Pump and 901 meter. This setup will help streamline operations on the farm by fueling farm equipment faster and cheaper.
