Multi-Point Temperature Measurement for Storage Tanks
The Rosemount 565 Multiple Spot Temperature Sensor is designed specifically for accurate temperature monitoring in large liquid storage tanks. Unlike single-point temperature sensors, the Rosemount 565 uses multiple sensing elements installed at different heights to measure temperature distribution throughout the tank.
Only fully immersed Pt-100 elements are used to calculate product temperature, ensuring accurate average temperature measurement for inventory calculations and custody transfer applications.
Accurate Tank Temperature Profile Measurement
The Rosemount 565 provides detailed temperature profiling by using multiple RTD sensing points along the sensor length.
Key benefits:
Measures temperature at multiple tank levels
Provides average product temperature calculation
Supports accurate volume correction
Improves inventory management accuracy
Reduces measurement uncertainty during custody transfer
The sensor can be configured with up to 16 Pt-100 spot elements according to tank height and application requirements.
High Accuracy Pt-100 RTD Technology
The Rosemount 565 uses industrial-grade Pt-100 resistance temperature detectors according to IEC 60751 standards.
Features include:
Pt-100 RTD sensing elements
Three-wire or four-wire wiring options
Individual spot element calibration
Improved measurement accuracy
Long-term stability
