Product introduction

Built for Professional Cargo Measurement

The VERITON VTU-1000 is a portable cargo tank measuring instrument designed for professional use onboard oil and chemical tankers. The instrument measures ullage, oil/water interface and product temperature through approved vapour lock systems.

The VTU-1000 combines three essential cargo measurement functions in one robust and user-friendly instrument. Its modular construction, chemically resistant materials and accessible replaceable components are designed to support reliable operation and reduce long-term maintenance requirements.

“Finally, a UTI designed by people who understand our work.”

Measurement technology

Three Measurement Technologies. One Integrated Probe.

ULLAGE DETECTION

Technology: Ultrasonic sensing

The probe detects contact with the liquid surface and provides audible and visual indication to support accurate ullage measurement.

INTERFACE DETECTION

Technology: Conductivity sensing

Conductivity measurement is used to distinguish the oil or chemical product from water at the bottom of the cargo tank.

TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT

Technology: Platinum RTD Pt1000

An integrated Pt1000 temperature sensor measures cargo temperature across the specified measurement range.

Hazardous-area operation notice. Hazardous-area operation is subject to the applicable IECEx and ATEX certification status, vessel procedures and local safety requirements. Always consult the official operation manual before use.
