NEWELL, West Virginia– Marsh Bellofram has introduced the King-Gage LP3 Marine System, a complete tank liquid level and vessel draft measurement solution.

Available in 8-, 16-, 24- and 32-tank configurations, the King-Gage LP3 Marine System is supplied with all necessary measurement modules, signal conditioning, data acquisition and network communications links for high-accuracy, high repeatability tank level measurement and readout capabilities.

When used along with two-wire level sensors, hydrostatic pressure or D/P transmitters, supplied LP3 analog input modules provide complete 4-20 mA sensor transmitter signal loop processing, with signal scaling of specific tank geometries for the accurate calculation of a volumetric measurement. The processor references a capacity profile to correlate transmitter output with actual tank geometer, and formats directly as total weight or liquid volume.

The system further serves as its own power supply and external excitation source. With level calculations made on the basis of hydrostatic liquid depth pressure, the system measures total product mass for precise material accounting. An LCD color touch screen displays transmitter outputs and is housed within a corrosion resistant NEMA-rated stainless steel enclosure or flush mounted remote panel.
