Controllers Handle Liquid Transport

April 21, 2012
Enhancements include an expanded set of keypad configuration commands.
Emerson Process Management has released updates to its DL8000 Preset Controller, which include new features designed to simplify and enhance capabilities for the blending, measurement, control, and monitoring needed to provide highly productive and rapid operations for common loading configurations.
The DL8000 features an expanded set of configuration commands that can be entered directly from the keypad. Operators can change Meter Factor, K Factor, perform a meter prove and read and change other process parameters. It also provides support for ethanol volume correction based on either the OIML-R22 (1973) or ABNT NBR 5992 standards. 
Suited for use with a range of liquids that include crude oil, refined products, special application products, lubricating oils and light hydrocarbons, the DL8000 is packaged in a Class 1 Division 1 explosion proof enclosure or a Class 1 Division 2 enclosure and carries approvals from the NTEP National Test and Evaluation Program under the U.S. National Council on Weights and Measures, and CSA/UL.
