housing in the vertical position to allow the Oring
to seat properly in the tube.
9.9. Verification and certification of
tapes
The tape has to be periodically inspected for
breaks, kinks, wear and illegible numbers.
As the tape is a cable it might be necessary to
check its electrical conformity. Refer to section
11.9. It is necessary also to check it for accuracy
regularly
International Standards, as API "Manual of
(A)
Petroleum - Measurement Standards - Chapter 3 -
Tank Gauging - Section 1A - Standard practice for
the manual gauging of petroleum products in
stationary tanks" or IP "Petroleum Measurement
Manual - Part III - Manual Tank Gauging - Section
1 - Non-Electrical Methods" or relevant ISO
standards.
In such a case it is important to remember that the
bottom of the sensing probe is 4 mm lower than
the zero of the tape, thus to assure that the
electrical zero coincide with the tape zero.
It is also important to remember that the nominal
tension at which the tape was produced is marked
on each beginning of tape and is normally 6 N (1,3
lb). If tensioned at 44,5 N (10 lb) as per API this
will result in a additional elongation up to 3.7 mm
over 30 meters.
This periodical verification can be done at the
factory or in a Service Station.
