Ferguson Beauregard Launches iLevel Tank Level Measurement

Efficient, dependable tank level measurement for the oil and gas industry

Tyler, TX – Ferguson Beauregard™, a global leader in production-enhancing oilfield equipment such as plunger lift, wireless monitoring, automated control systems and gas measurement, announces the availability of its new iLevel Tank Level Measurement System.

The iLevel features a level sensor that is certified for Class I Division I environments when used with a solar-powered iLevel multi-tank controller mounted in a Class I Division II area. The iLevel probe, based on proven magnetostrictive technology from Ferguson Beauregard's sister company OPW Fuel Management Systems, continuously measures two liquid levels in each tank, such as oil and water. The iLevel controller can be scaled to monitor 24 tanks at a time, a must for large tank batteries.

Since safety is of the utmost importance to operators, the iLevel's solar panel and rechargeable battery have been placed at ground level, ensuring technicians never need to climb to the top of tanks to replace batteries. The iLevel interfaces with most Remote Terminal Units (RTUs) and can connect directly to SCADA systems, allowing 24x7 knowledge of tank level status. Monitoring tank levels with iLevel prevents unnecessary trips to the pad site (and to the top of tanks!) while providing real time tank level data, enabling operators to improve site safety, optimize well production and accurately schedule trucks only when needed.
