Introduction to the TankRadar L/2 System
The TankRadar L/2 System is a monitoring and control system for
tank level gauging. The system can interface various sensors, such
as temperature and pressure sensors, for complete inventory
control.
There is a distributed intelligence in the various units of the system. The units continuously collect and process information.
When a request for information is received an immediate response
is sent with updated information. The units communicate with
each other on a field bus, the TRL/2 Bus.
No part of the equipment is in actual contact with the product in
the tank and the antenna is the only part of the gauge that is exposed to the tank atmosphere. The Radar Tank Gauge sends microwaves towards the surface of the product in the tank. The level
is calculated based on the echo from the surface.
TankRadar L/2 can measure the level of almost any product,
including bitumen, crude oil, refined products, aggressive chemicals, LPG and LNG, etc. Using a suitable Tank Connection Unit,
the TankRadar L/2 System can gauge any type of tank.

Installation Manual
The basic parts of the TankRadar L/2 System are:
The Radar Tank Gauge, RTG, is an intelligent explosion
protected instrument for measuring the level of a product
inside a tank. Four different Tank Connection Units can be
attached in order to satisfy a variety of different applications.
The Data Acquisition Unit, DAU, can interface various
external sensors and actuators. There are two versions of the
DAU, the Slave DAU and the Independent DAU. The Slave
DAU can measure temperature while the Independent DAU,
in addition to temperature measurement , has analog and
digital inputs. Both versions can, as an option, be equipped
with a LCD-display for local readout of the measured values.
The Field Communication Unit, FCU, acts as a gateway and
data concentrator between the Group Bus and the Field Bus.
Each FCU can have a total of 32 RTGs and 32 DAUs connected to it.
The Field Bus Modem, FBM, is a converter between RS-232C
and the TRL/2 Bus. It is used for connecting a PC with OPI
(or COS) to the TRL/2 Bus.
The Operator’s Interface, OPI, is a software for presenting
the values measured in the TRL/2 system. The Operator’s
Interface is also used to set alarm limits, perform setups,
configuration and calibration of the TRL/2 System.
The Configuration Software, COS, is normally used on a
portable Service PC, operating under DOS. The Service PC
can be connected to one of the FCUs Group Bus ports or
directly to the Field Bus via an FBM. It is used for service,
configuration and calibration purposes. It is not a substitution for the more powerful OPI.

Installation Manual
Safety
TankRadar L/2 equipment is often used in areas where flammable
materials are handled and where an explosive atmosphere may be
present. To protect both the plant and the personnel, precautions
must be taken to ensure that this atmosphere cannot be ignited.
These areas are called hazardous areas and equipment within
these areas must be explosion protected.
A number of different explosion protection techniques have been
developed over the years. Intrinsic safety and explosion proof (or
flame proof) safety are two techniques.
2.1
Intrinsic Safety
Intrinsic safety, IS, is based on the principle of restricting electrical
energy available in hazardous-area circuits such that any sparks or
hot surfaces, that may occur as a result of electrical faults in components, are too weak to cause ignition. Intrinsic safety is the only
technique accepted for Zone 0 hazardous areas. It is also safe for
personnel and allows equipment to be maintained without the
need for a gas-free certificate.
For example, the temperature measurement of the DAUs is intrinsically safe.
The basic principles of intrinsic safety are:
All flammable materials are grouped according to the energy
needed to ignite them.
Equipment located in hazardous areas are classified according to the maximum surface temperature that it can produce
and this must be safe with the flammable gases that may be
present.
Hazardous areas are classified according to the probability
that an explosive atmosphere is present, and this dictates
whether or not a particular explosion protection technique
may be used.
Important!
For trouble shooting and repair work of components in or in connection
to intrinsically safe equipment, strict observance of the following rules is
necessary:
Disconnect the power supply to the Radar Tank Gauges or the
Independent Data Acquisition Units.
Use a certified battery operated instrument only.
Use Saab original spare parts only. Replacement with non-original
spare parts may jeopardize the intrinsic safety.

Installation Manual
2.2
Explosion Proof
Explosion proof enclosures can be used when an explosion can be
allowed inside the enclosure as long as it does not spread to the
outside of it. The enclosure must be strong enough to withstand
the pressure and must have narrow gaps to allow the pressure to
escape without igniting the atmosphere outside of the equipment.
Important!
Any substitution to non-recognized parts may impair intrinsic safety.
The explosion-proof (flame-proof) enclosures of the Transmitter Head and
the Independent Data Acquisition Unit must not be opened while the
units are powered.
2.3
Specific FCC Requirements (US market only)
Saab TankRadar L/2 generates and uses radio frequency energy. If
it is not installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance
with the manufacturer's instructions, it may violate FCC regulations on radio frequency emission.
Saab TankRadar L/2 has been FCC certified under test conditions
which assume a metallic tank. Installation on a non-metallic tank
is not certified, and is not allowed.
The FCC certificate for TankRadar L/2 requires that the tank is
closed as far as emitted radio energy is concerned. Tanks with
open manholes, external-floating-roof tanks without still pipes etc.
are not covered by the certificate.
To ensure that no installations are made against the FCC rules, the
additional list in Appendix 5 of Tank Data at the end of this
manual must be completed and returned to Saab Tank Control for
evaluation and approval.

The optional Current Loop Card provides intrinsically safe 4-20
mA inputs and outputs. The inputs can be used for example for
pressure sensors, while the outputs can be used for pointer instruments or for output of a measured value as an analog signal.
If a Slave DAU is also connected, two 4-20 mA inputs and two 420 mA outputs are available. If a Slave DAU is not connected, one
additional 4-20 mA input is available, although this transducer
must have its own intrinsically safe power supply.
When the optional Current Loop Card is used, the JB 12 Junction
Box from Saab Tank Control is recommended since the cables are
separated inside the box according to the requirements for intrinsic safety. See chapter 7.2.

Description of the Horn Antenna Gauge, RTG 2920.
The Horn Antenna Gauge is designed for easy mounting in small
size openings on tanks with fixed roof. A flange with a diameter of
8" is enough to mount the RTG 2920.
The RTG 2920 is designed for measurement of a variety of oil
products and chemicals except for bitumen/asphalt and similar
products where the Parabolic Antenna Gauge RTG 2930 is recommended.
The wide beam of the Horn Antenna Gauge is a disadvantage in
narrow tanks with internal structures. In such cases the Parabolic
Antenna Gauge is generally recommended.
The Horn Antenna Gauge is delivered with one of two types of
flanges. One flange is for straight mounting. The other flange is
used for inclined mounting.

Description of the Still Pipe Gauge, RTG 2940
The Still Pipe Gauge is used on tanks with still pipes and with all
products suited for still pipes.
The gauge uses a low-loss radar propagation mode which virtually eliminates the influence of the still pipe condition. Measurement is made with highest accuracy even when the pipe is old,
rusty and covered with deposits.
The Still Pipe Gauge fits 6", 8", 10" and 12" pipes. It can be
mounted on an existing still pipe and there is no need to take the
tank out of operation during installation.

Description of the LPG/LNG Gauge, RTG 2960
The RTG 2960 is designed for level measurement in LPG and LNG
tanks. A still pipe is required for the measurement. It prevents a
wavy or boiling surface from disturbing the measurement. Radar
signals are transmitted inside the pipe towards the surface.
The pressure sealing is a quarts window approved for use in
pressure vessels. As standard the gauge is also equipped with a
fire-proof block valve and a vapor space pressure sensor.
The LPG/LNG Gauge is available in three different versions, a 150
PSI version, a 300 PSI version and a 600 PSI version.
The patented reference pin function enables verification of measurement without opening the tank. There is a Reference Pin at the
top of the still pipe and a Reference Plug made of epoxy resin at
the bottom. If epoxy can not be used in the tank, two or three
reference pins can be used without the Reference Plug. By setting
the gauge into "test mode" it measures against these references
and compares with the actual distances to these references that
were stored during installation.
See also chapter 10.4 for installation requirements for the LPG/
LNG Gauge.

4.2
Selecting the Temperature Range
The multiplexer for the RTDs has two different amplification
factors which are jumper selected. It is also possible to provide an
offset to the measured signal by adding a current to it. The amplification is selected on the X1 and X2 and the offset is selected on
the X3 according to the table in figure 4.3. The standard setting is
from -50°C to +125°C. The database setting of the temperature
range in the Operator’s Interface (OPI) or the Configuration Software (COS) must correspond to the setting of the jumpers.
A high precision reference resistor must be connected to the X21
terminal to positions 43, 44 and 45. Depending on the temperature
range stated in the Required System Information form, one out of
three different reference resistors is chosen and connected. See
figure 4.2 and spare parts list in the Service Manual.

10 Requirements on the Installation of the Radar Tank
Gauges
To achieve precise and trouble free measurement, it is very important to mount the Radar Tank Gauge correctly on the tank.
Please note that if an ullage plug is required, it has to be installed
separately as there is no ullage plug on the Horn Antenna Gauge
or the Parabolic Antenna Gauge.
Note: Please see the installation drawings for more information. There is
a list of drawings in chapter 13.
10.1 Requirements for the Horn Antenna Gauge, RTG 2920
The Horn Antenna Gauge, RTG 2920, must be installed so that
there are no pipes or other obstacles that could prevent the radar
beam to reach the bottom unobstructed. Please refer also to the
mechanical installation drawing for more information on the
installation requirements of the Horn Antenna Gauge.
See installation drawing for requirements on service space.
Note: Levels closer than approximately 850 mm from the flange, cannot
be measured with the highest accuracy.
10.1.1 Free Space Requirement
The radar beam spreads over 30°. There are two flanges available
for the Horn Antenna Gauge. One inclines the gauge 4° and the
other is horizontal. See installation drawing for flange dimensions.
If the wall would intrude into the 30° radar beam with a vertical
antenna axis, the 4° flange has to be used so that the radar beam is

directed away from the wall. This inclination is necessary to ensure maximum accuracy.
If the wall does not intrude into the 30° radar beam when the
antenna axis is vertical, the horizontal flange can be used.
For special cases, where the maximum accuracy is not necessary,
the horizontal flange can be used even when the wall intrudes into
the radar beam. In doubtful cases, please contact Saab Tank Control or one of its representatives.

10.2 Requirements for Parabolic Antenna Gauge, RTG 2930
Please refer also to the mechanical installation drawing for more
information on the installation requirements for the Parabolic
Antenna Gauge.
See also installation drawing for requirements on service space.
10.2.1 Inclination of the Parabolic Antenna Gauge
The radar beam should be directed 1.5° towards the tank center.
Generally an Inclination Device must be used to ensure the correct
angle of the gauge. However, for products with high condensation, like bitumen/asphalt applications, the radar beam should be
directed vertically without any inclination towards the tank center.
When the Inclination Device is used the plane of the cover is allowed to lean a maximum of 5.5° away from the tank wall and a
maximum of 2.5° towards the tank wall. It must also be horizontal
within ± 4° along the tank wall. See figure 10.3.
If the plane of the cover has an inclination of 1°-2° away from the
tank wall and is horizontal within 1° along the wall then the Parabolic Antenna Gauge can be directly mounted on the cover without the use of the Inclination Device. See figure 10.3.

10.2.2 Free Space Requirement
The radar beam of the Parabolic Antenna Gauge is 10° wide. Obstacles (construction bars, pipes larger than Ø 2", etc.) within the
radar beam are generally not accepted, as these can give a disturbing echo, see figure 10.11. However, in most cases, a smooth tank
wall or heating coils can be accepted in the radar beam, since the
interference from these can be regarded as small. For evaluation

10.3.3 New Tanks
When constructing new tanks, an 8" still pipe or larger is recommended. This is especially relevant in tanks with sticky, viscous
products. Before manufacturing a new still pipe, we recommend
that you contact the Project Department at Saab Tank Control for
advice. See also drawing with recommendations for still pipe
dimensions, see list of drawings in chapter 13.
For highest performance, the total area of the slots or holes in the
still pipe must not exceed the values shown in table 10.2 below.
The area in the table is the total area of the holes over the entire
length of the pipe, regardless of its length. In some cases it is possible to allow a larger area of the holes in the still pipe, than the
area stated in table 10.2. When the limits are exceeded, please
contact Saab Tank Control for advice.

10.3.3 Service Space
See installation drawing for requirements on the service space. It is
necessary to have this free space when installing the gauge, when
doing service on it and when hand dipping or taking samples. The
height of the free space requirement depends on which Transition
Cone that is used. The larger Transition Cones require higher free
space.

Installation Manual
10.4 Requirements for the LPG/LNG Gauge, RTG 2960
The LPG/LNG Gauge fits to a 6" flange and requires a still pipe
for measurement.
Please refer to the mechanical installation drawing for more detailed information of the requirements on the installation of the
LPG/LNG Gauge.
10.4.1 Temperature and Pressure Measurement
A prerequisite for high accuracy level-measurement is that temperature and pressure measurements are made. This can be accomplished in some different ways.
•
An Independent DAU can interface both pressure sensors
and temperature sensors.
•
A Current Loop Card in the Transmitter Head to connect the
pressure sensor and a Slave Data Acquisition Unit for the
temperature measurement.
10.4.2 Still Pipe
A still pipe must be installed before the gauge is installed. The still
pipe is customer supplied and should be manufactured according
to the drawings specified in chapter 13.
Either a steel pipe with an inner diameter of 100 mm and 2-3 mm
wall thickness or a 4" SCH 10 stainless steel pipe can be used.
Specify the type of pipe in the Required System Information Form.
The still pipe must be vertical to within ±0.5°. The customer flange
must be horizontal within ±1°.
10.4.3 References in Still Pipe
The still pipe is made with a number of holes along the length of
it. Some of these holes are used to mount the Reference Pins and
the Reflector Plug (if included).
The Reflector Plug is used for calibration of the gauge. The Reference Pins provide verification of the measurement when the tank
is pressurized. The other holes provide pressure equalization so
that the level is the same on the inside as on the outside of the
pipe. These holes can be chosen to 20 mm or 3/4". All holes must
be placed along a line on one side of the pipe. The direction of the
line, along which the lines are located, must be marked clearly on
the tank flange and customer flange.
There are two systems for references in the still pipe:
One Reference Pin at the top of the still pipe and a Reflector
Plug at the bottom of the pipe.
Two or three reference pins installed at the top, the bottom
and the middle of the pipe. This system is used when it is not
possible to have an epoxy Reflector Plug in the tank.
40
Saab TankRadar L/2
US Version. Seventh edition, June 1995
Installation Manual
10.4.4 System with Reference Pin and Reflector Plug
At the top of the pipe there is a reference pin and at the bottom
there is a reference plug made from epoxy resin.
Note: If the products that will be stored in the tank are not compatible
with epoxy resin, the system with two or three Reference Pins should be
used instead, see chapter 10.4.5.
See installation drawings for information on where to place the
references in the still pipe. Enclosed with reference pin and bottom
plug are instructions on how to install these.
10.4.5 System with Reference Pins Only
Saab Tank Control delivers three Reference Pins to each Radar
Tank Gauge and they have to be mounted in the still pipe before it
is lowered into the tank. For more information please refer to the
installation drawings, see List of Drawings in chapter 8.
Position the holes for the Reference Pins so that the top pin is
located at approximately 95% of the total tank height but at least
0.8 m below the flange of the still pipe. Place the second pin at
approximately 50% level.
Place the lowest pin at approximately 20 % of the tank height but
at least 0.8 m above the lower end of the pipe.
On tanks with tank heights of less than 7 m, only the top and
bottom reference pins are used.
10.4.6 Extension Pipe for Minimum Distance
The Radar Tank Gauge should be placed so that there is always
800 mm or more between the Closing and the maximum product
level. If the tank is filled completely, an extension pipe can be
mounted to raise the Radar Tank Gauge so that it measures correctly all the way up to the maximum level. See figure 10.9.

12 Electrical Installation
Warning! Isolate and terminate ends of unused wires. The intrinsic
safety may be jeopardized if any cable ends are hanging loose. Use certified battery operated instruments only. Use Saab Tank Control original
spare parts only.
Note: For all electrical installation, please see the instructions in the
electrical installation drawings. See list of drawings in chapter 13.
12.1 Cabling for Power Supply
The cables used for the power supply connection must be suitable
for the supply voltage in question and also approved for use in
hazardous area where it is applicable. In the USA, for example,
explosion proof conduits must be used in the vicinity of the tank.
The wire areas must be selected not to cause too much voltage
drop on the way to the RTGs, the DAUs, the FCUs, etc.
Each Radar Tank Gauge and Field Communication Unit have a
switch for voltage selection that can be set to either 115 VAC or 230
VAC. Check that the switch is set in the right position before
power is connected. See chapter 3.1.3 and 6.3.
The selection of 115 or 230 VAC power supply for the Independent
Data Acquisition Unit is made by connecting a strap on one of the
printed circuit boards in the flameproof enclosure. See chapter
4.7.1. Maximum power consumption is 10 W.
The Slave Data Acquisition Unit receives its power via the local
line from the associated Radar Tank Gauge.
The power supply connection to the Radar Tank Gauge should be
made with wires according to table 12.1 below. The table shows
the voltage drop at various cable lengths and wire areas at the
maximum power consumption of 80 W. The figures shaded in
grey indicate combinations of lengths and areas that might result
in too high voltage drops.

12.2 Cabling for TRL/2 Bus
The TRL/2 bus requires a twisted and shielded pair with an area
of min 0.50 mm2 (AWG 20 or similar). The maximum length of the
TRL/2 bus is 4 km. The TRL/2 Field Bus can normally use existing cables in the tank area.
Note: Wherever two TRL/2 Buses run alongside each other, sharing the
same cable or conduit tube, individual shielding is mandatory in order to
avoid crosstalk.
12.3 Grounding
According to national code of practice the Transmitter Head or
Data Acquisition Unit can be grounded by connecting an exterior
4 mm2 wire to a potential equalization network, or, if no such
exists, to the tank structure. A grounding lug is available on the
enclosure for this purpose.
Note: When the enclosure is connected to a potential equalizing network
or to the tank structure, the protective ground with the power supply
must not be connected.
If the enclosure is not externally grounded, the protective ground with
the power supply should be connected.
12.4 Electrical Installation of the Radar Tank Gauge, RTG
12.4.1 The Non-Intrinsically Safe Connection (W11)
The power connection is made with two wires. The TRL/2 Field
Bus connection is made with a single pair of shielded twisted
wires.
A Junction Box is required for the non-intrinsically safe connection
of the power supply and the TRL/2 Field Bus. The junction box
can either be customer supplied or supplied by Saab Tank Control
as an option, see chapter 7. The three wires in the cable output that
are not used must be properly insulated and terminated in the
junction box.
12.4.2 The Intrinsically Safe Connection (W12)
See chapter 3.1.2 for information on number of cables in lead seal.
If the distance between the Transmitter Head and the Slave Data
Acquisition Unit is longer than 2.0 m, a junction box must be used
to connect an extension cable. This extension cable must not be
longer than 50 m. For safety reasons the ends of the unused wires
must be properly insulated and terminated. The junction box can
either be customer supplied or supplied by Saab Tank Control as
an option, see chapter 7.
A flexible protective hose for the wires is delivered with the Barrier Unit or the Current Loop Card, or with the Transmitter Head
if the units have been factory installed. For reasons of electromag-
54

Installation Manual
netic interference and compatibility it is very important that a
continuous metal shield is covering the wires between the Transmitter Head and the Slave Data Acquisition Unit. If an extension
cable is used, both the cable and the junction box must provide
good shielding.
12.5 Electrical Installation of the Data Acquisition Unit, DAU
Instructions for the connection of the Data Acquisition Unit is
given on the inside of its cover.
12.5.1 Electrical Installation of the Slave DAU, DAU 2100
The connection to the Radar Tank Gauge is done according to the
instructions in chapter 12.4.2 above.
Either Pt 100 (spot element) or Cu 100 (averaging sensor) temperature sensors can be used. If the sensors are connected with common return wires then jumpers must be connected in the Data
Acquisition Unit terminals.
Intrinsically safe connection of the temperature sensors, the RTDs,
is made with n + 2 wires for an n-element spot or averaging sensor. There are spot elements with three wires for each element.
12.5.2 Electrical Installation of the Independent DAU, 2130
The connection of the power supply and the TRL/2 Field Bus is
made through the lead seal W21.
A Junction Box is required for the non-intrinsically safe connection
of the power supply, the TRL/2 Field Bus and the relay outputs.
The junction box can either be customer supplied or supplied by
Saab Tank Control as an option, see chapter 7.
Temperature sensors are connected in the same way as for the
Slave Data Acquisition Unit which is described above in chapter
12.5.1.
Intrinsically safe 4-20 mA transducers can be connected to the
current inputs with two wires for each sensor. Up to four transducers can be connected to each Data Acquisition Unit but the
input multiplexer can only bias one at a time. These connections
are normally used for pressure sensors or interface probes.
Eight intrinsically safe digital or frequency inputs are provided.
Each input requires two wires.
Four non-intrinsically safe relay outputs are available with two
wires per relay. This option has to be specified in the Required
System Information Form. The relays are connected through the
lead seal W22.

12.6 Electrical Installation of the Field Bus Modem, FBM 2170
The Field Bus Modem is delivered, as standard, with a 3 m long
cable for the RS-232C connection to the PC. The TRL/2 bus connection is made with a twisted pair of wires. The Field Bus Modem must not be used in a hazardous zone as it is not explosion
protected. The Field Bus Modem is powered from an AC/DC
converter (6-15 V, 10 mA) supplied by Saab Tank Control. In some
rare cases the Field Bus Modem can be powered from the RS-232C
port of the PC.
12.7 Electrical Installation of the Field Communication Unit,
FCU 2160
The FCU can be connected to the PC either directly via RS-232C or
via a TRL/2 Group Bus.
For the connection of the TRL/2 Bus, see chapter 12.2.
The RS-232C connection can be made with 3 wires from the PC to
the Field Communication Unit. The area must be at least 0.25 mm2
(AWG 24 or similar). The maximum length of the RS-232C connection is 30 m.
