8. Examples of installation of the gauging system
8.1
General
The equipment you have ordered is mounted with
a MMC adaptor, in order to fit the relevant MMC
valve.
Please consult the MMC documentation to
check what is the distance between the valve
and the reading index of the gauge.
There should be no internal tank structure
between the valve outlet and the tank bottom such
that will impede the path of the equipment into the
tank.
8.2
Installation
The HERMetic equipment can be provided with 4 adaptors, as shown on the next 4 figures.

All valves shall be installed at the same level.
Small systematic level error can be corrected by
adjusting the reading index accordingly.
When designing the gauging port and to avoid
damaging the tape during rewinding it is advised
to chamfer or to grind all sharp edges (on pipes,
flanges, etc.) that could damage the tape when
operating the gauge.
