PSM Instrumentation Ltd has been a manufacturer of tank liquid level and tank gauging systems for 30 years. Specialising in the Marine industry, PSM offers an extensive range of tank gauging and monitoring systems and electronic level & pressure transmitters for shipboard duty. Instruments carry international type approvals for use in ballast, fuel, draught and all service tanks. In addition, many carry NATO stock numbers and are shock tested to fulfil the requirements of military surface ships and submarines.

PSM uses digital technology in its latest data acquisition monitoring control and display instruments, providing accurate and cost effective gauging & monitoring solutions to suit vessels of all sizes and class. Typically, these new systems have been equally fitted to trawlers and navy frigates emphasising suitability for a wide range of vessels.

The flexibility of the 2200 series and digital systems also provide shipyards the opportunity for substantial installation cost savings compared with traditional equipment. Central computer displays are available with PSM "Tankview", an advanced software package running under the Windows environment for operator familiarity and ease of use. Link protocols enable interface with other shipboard systems and loading computers.

The Level Transmitter 'Tankstar' series is designed to meet the latest IEC and marine standards. It's rugged construction and design flexibility provide reliable monitoring of liquid levels and pressures in harsh environments. Typically ship's tanks and draught applications where conditions of high overload, shock and corrosion are common.
The maintenance free design containing no active electronic components ensures reliable and trouble free operation - critical in shipboard applications.
The 'Tankstar' has the sensitivity needed to accurately measure shallow tanks but sustains a 50 times overload without damage.

2000 series of level gauging monitoring systems, display and data acquisition and control modules


26Ghz Radar level transmitter

The VG7 High frequency (26 GHz) Radar operates on the same proven principle of the earlier lower frequency 10 GHz FMCW Radars.

Enhanced accuracy Vs Pulse Radar

 The difference in dynamic range between the best pulsed systems and the VG7 is more than 30 dB.  This is equivalent in signal power to a sensitivity that is 1000 times greater.  The larger dynamic range of the VG7 allows more stable detection of liquids with very low dielectric and thus very weak reflections.  Between an dielectric of 2 and a dielectric of 1.2, in an otherwise identical measurement environment, the difference in level is approximately 11.5 dB, which is equivalent to 14 times the power difference on a linear scale.

Vibrating probe level switch model TFVibrating Probe Level Switches for Liquids

This rugged design of switch is used throughout the process industries.  It is available with a wide range of flanged or screwed process connections and can have extensions, enabling the probe to reach 3 metres into a tank if required. The wetted parts of standard switches are 316 stainless steel but special Halar coated and Hastelloy switches are used for extremely corrosive applications  and hygienic probes are available for the food industry.

Ultrasonic Level Transmitter
'THE ULTRAMETER II'

The Ultrameter II family represents a real advance in the use of ultrasound for non-contact level measurement. It is suitable for both liquids and solids measurement. A highly developed and ultra efficient range of sensors emit a significantly higher power acoustic wave than earlier generation devices, providing enhanced accuracy and resolution and the ability to automatically compensate for and operate reliably in acoustically “noisy” or absorbent atmospheres such as vapour, or dust.
