The MMC Oxygen Sensor Gauging Tape is an electronic system equipped with solid-state circuitry and an easy-to-view LCD readout panel. Its notable feature is the built-in auto-calibration function that seamlessly adjusts itself to 20.9%. This system serves as a reliable method for measuring oxygen levels within the ullage space of enclosed tanks— the area between the tank’s ceiling and the liquid cargo beneath. Precise monitoring of oxygen content is especially critical for vessels transporting petroleum, employing inert gas to prevent potential combustion and explosions. Compliance with U.S. Coast Guard regulations in the United States mandates not only monitoring but also meticulous documentation of oxygen levels to ensure the safety of these operations.
In terms of specifications, it maintains impressive accuracy, with a +/- 0.2% accuracy rate within the 1% to 25% range. Additionally, it offers +/- 1/8″ positioning accuracy and tape measurement. The oxygen sensor covers a measurement range of 0% to 25%, ensuring comprehensive coverage. Powered by a 9-Volt Duracell MN1604 battery, the device is intrinsically safe, effectively guarding against hazardous environmental conditions. It is designed to meet BASEEFA and Factory Mutual approvals, underscoring its commitment to both functionality and safety. The MMC Flexi-Dip Oxygen Sensor Gauging Tape is an invaluable tool for tanker ships, offering efficiency, precision, and confidence in maintaining inert gas conditions—a critical aspect of their vital operations.
