2.1 Introduction
The floating roof monitoring function in Rosemount™ TankMaster detects whether a roof in a storage
tank is stuck, sinking, floating higher or lower than normal, covered by water or product, or is tilted.
TankMaster uses three to six tilt gauges to track inclination of a floating tank roof. Roof floating high/low
status may be monitored as well. The monitoring function is based on using Rosemount 3308 wireless
level transmitters mounted on the tank roof, or shell mounted free propagation radar level gauges
measuring distance to the tank roof.
Overview
May 2020
If roof inclination exceeds a maximum alarm limit, TankMaster triggers an alarm. Also, if the tank roof
floats higher or lower than normal, it may indicate that the roof is stuck or is about to sink. An alarm is
triggered in TankMaster if the floating roof passes high or low alarm limits.
One or two extra transmitters can be used to detect if the roof drain gets plugged or if there is any
hydrocarbons (product) present on the tank roof. The drain gauge can be either a Rosemount 3308
wireless transmitter providing an online level value of tank roof drain sump, or a wireless vibrating fork
which will act as a high level alarm switch.
Hydrocarbons may be detected by any hydrocarbon detection system which can provide a digital output
signal to be connected with a Rosemount 702 Wireless Discrete Transmitter.
The roof monitoring function is enabled by an option in the Rosemount TankMaster hardware key. Also,
in TankMaster WinSetup a tank must be configured as a Floating Roof Tank in order to be able to use the
floating roof monitoring function.
Level radars are installed at multiple points, spaced evenly around the perimeter of the roof. The
following installation options are available:
Shell mounted with/without level reference
Roof mounted
2.1.1 Drain sump monitoring and hydrocarbon detection
A drain gauge and/or a hydrocarbon gauge can be added to the floating roof monitoring system. The
drain gauge is installed in the drain sump and detects if the drain clogs and water does not run off.
Rosemount 3308 Wireless Guided Wave Radar or Rosemount 2160 Wireless Vibrating Fork can be used
for drain sump monitoring.
Overview
Installed at the floating roof, the hydrocarbon gauge detects potential hydrocarbons on the roof.
Typically, a Rosemount 702 Wireless Discrete Transmitter with Liquid Hydrocarbon Detection is used.

2.2 System overview
The floating roof monitoring function is based on using one of two tilt gauge installation options:
shell mounted at the top of the tank
on the tank roof
The shell mounted version is also suitable for fixed roof tanks with inner floating roof.
2.2.1 Shell mounted installation at top of tank
Three to six non-contacting level gauges are installed at the top of the tank. The gauges are mounted on
brackets and measure distance to reflector plate on top of the tank roof.
Roof tilt is monitored by comparing distance to the tank roof measured by the different tilt level gauges.
Tank roof floating high/low calculations can be done by comparing distance to floating roof with
distance to the product surface measured by a reference level gauge in a still-pipe.

2.2.2 Installation on tank roof
Three to six tilt gauges are installed on the tank roof. Probes penetrate the tank roof measuring distance
from roof to product surface.
By comparing the distance to the product surface measured by each tilt gauge, both roof tilt and
buoyancy can be monitored.
Wireless Rosemount 3308 tilt gauges communicate with the host system via a repeater at the top of the
tank.

3.3 Mechanical installation
The Floating Roof Monitoring system is based on using a number of tilt gauges which measure the
distance to the tank roof. There is also an option which is based on installing level gauges on the tank
roof in order to monitor the distance between tank roof and product surface. Throughout this manual
we will refer to these two versions:
Shell mounted
Roof mounted
3.3.1 Installation on tank shell
This option uses three to six tilt gauges mounted on brackets. It is recommended that tilt gauges are
mounted on a bracket arm and not a wide plate.
In case there is a level gauge for product level measurements as well, it can be used as a reference for tank
roof floating high/low calculations.

It is important that each tilt gauge is installed at a position where the roof and reflector can not come
into contact with the antenna.
Ensure that the bracket is long enough to fulfill minimum recommendations for distance from wall to tilt
gauge.
The tilt gauge should be installed at zero degrees vertical inclination as shown in “Inclination” on
page 15.

3.3.2 Installation on tank roof
Three to six tilt gauges can be installed on the tank roof allowing tilt and roof floating high/low
measurements. A repeater at the top of the tank ensures proper communication between the wireless
tilt gauges and the gateway.
Note
Make sure that battery power is regularly verified by, for example, using the gateway web interface.
Wireless network communication should be verified according to IEC 62591 (WirelessHART) standards
best practice.

Geometry
It is important that the nozzle is high enough to ensure that the product surface does not reach the level
transmitter’s Blind Zone in case the roof tilts or sinks. Make sure that there is sufficient measuring range
margin as illustrated in Figure 3-9.
See the Rosemount 3308 Series Reference Manual
for more information on Blind Zones.
Normal Distance is a configuration parameter that designates the distance between the upper
reference point and the product surface when the tank roof floats freely and is horizontal with no tilt. A
deviation from Normal Distance indicates that the roof is stuck or sinking.
Prior to putting the Floating Roof Monitoring system in operation, it is recommended to hand dip each
tilt gauge nozzle in order to find the exact Normal Distance. This value will be needed in the Floating
Roof Monitoring setup as described in “Roof mounted” on page 33. The hand dip value allows you to
verify that the tilt gauge is measuring on the actual product surface.
Note
Make sure all roof monitoring alarm limits are configured inside the measuring range.

4.2 Introduction
It is important that configuration is properly prepared by providing the appropriate information that is
needed for setting up a Rosemount Tank Gauging system. For example, you will need tank geometry
parameters, antenna type for level gauges, Unit Id and Modbus communication addresses.
Prior to setting up a Rosemount TankMaster Floating Roof Monitoring system, all devices need to
be installed, wired, and configured according to the standard procedure.
The purpose of tank configuration is to associate level gauges and other devices to specific tanks. In a
Floating Roof Monitoring system you will need to configure reference gauge for level measurements as
well as tilt gauges for floating roof monitoring. Drain and Hydrocarbon gauges may also be used and
therefore need to be installed prior to setting up the floating roof monitoring system. Tank configuration
is part of the standard installation procedure for a Rosemount Tank Gauging system.
4.2.1 Inventory calculations
Note that for tilt gauge mounting type Shell mounted with Level Reference and Roof mounted you
will need to make sure that inventory calculations are setup. This is required for calculating floating roof
status such as Landed, Partially Landed, and Roof Floating High/Low.
For more information on setting up inventory calculations, see the Rosemount TankMaster WinOpi
Reference Manual

4.3 Floating roof monitoring setup
Prior to setting up the Floating Roof Monitoring function, make sure that reference level gauge and tilt
gauges are configured according to the standard procedure for Rosemount radar level gauges. Also, in
case drain gauge and/or hydrocarbon gauge will be used, you will have to install these devices too and
ensure that proper communication is established with the host computer system.
It is important that the roof floats horisontally in its normal position when setting up the roof monitoring
function. The roof must float freely and may not be stuck at the tank wall.
4.3.1 TankMaster WinSetup workspace
The WinSetup workspace shows installed tanks and devices. A Floating Roof tank with tilt gauges for roof
monitoring will appear as shown in Figure 4-1 below. Tilt gauges, as well as associated devices such as
level gauges and temperature transmitters, will be shown.

4.3.3 Shell mounted with level reference
This option includes tilt gauges and a level reference gauge. Prior to setting up the Floating Roof
Monitoring system, the reference gauge needs to be installed and configured according to the standard
procedure for Rosemount radar level gauges.
In case reference gauge tank geometry needs to be adjusted at a later stage, make sure that the floating
roof monitoring setup is updated as well.
For the tilt gauges you should use the same Tank Reference Height (R) as the Reference Level gauge.
Start by using the following parameter settings for the tilt gauges prior to setting up the floating roof
monitoring function.

Configuration
May 2020
You may use three to six tilt gauges. Prior to setting up the Floating Roof Monitoring function, make sure
that the tilt gauges are properly installed and configured. Check that all tilt gauges are available and
appear in the Source drop-down list.
Since the tilt gauges may be installed at slightly different heights on the tank shell, in most cases the
measured distance to the reflector on the tank roof will differ. Make sure that each tilt gauge is calibrated
to show Difference equal to zero (Reference Distance - Actual Distance = 0), see “Calibration” on
page 28.

Source
For each tilt gauge, select the desired gauge from the Source drop-down list.
Verify that the selected tilt gauge corresponds to the actual gauge on the tank roof.
Calibration
Each tilt gauge needs to be calibrated prior to using the Floating Roof Monitoring function. This means
that Difference is set equal to zero (Reference Distance - Actual Distance = 0).
The Reference Level gauge measures distance to the product surface. Each shell-mounted tilt gauge
measures the distance to a reflector placed on the tank roof. Tilt gauges and reference level gauge may
be installed at different heights, in most cases the Actual Distance measured by a tilt gauge will differ
from the Reference Distance measured by the reference gauge. Roof floating and tilt calculations are
based on monitoring the difference between Actual Distance and Reference Distance. As long as the roof
floats horisontally in its normal position, the difference between Actual Distance and Reference Distance
will remain constant. If the roof gets stuck, sinks, or tilts, the difference will change.
Note
Prior to calibrating, ensure that the roof is floating in its normal stable position in the product liquid.
Ensure that it is not stuck on the tank wall. No filling or emptying may occur during the calibration
procedure.
Ensure that all gauges that will be used as tilt gauges are installed and available in the Source drop-down
list. For each tilt gauge, select the desired source device as illustrated in Figure 4-5 on page 27.
Reference distance is the distance from the Gauge Reference Point of the Reference Level Gauge to the
product surface.
Actual distance is the distance from the Tilt Gauge Reference Point to the reflector.
Difference is equal to the difference between Reference distance and Actual distance.
See Figure 4-7 on page 30 for more information on tank geometry.
Tilt gauge configuration
Configure the tilt gauges so that Difference = 0 when the floating roof is horizontal and floats at its
normal position:
1. In the Floating Roof setup window, check the Difference parameter. This value is equal to Reference
Distance - Actual Distance.
2. Click the right mouse button on the tilt gauge icon, and select Properties.
3. Select the Geometry tab.
4. In the Gauge Reference Distance (G) input field, enter the current value for the Difference parameter
which appears in the Floating Roof Monitoring Setup window.
5. Click the Apply button.
6. Wait a couple of minutes to allow the level gauge to settle.

7. In the Floating Roof Monitoring Setup window, check that Difference=0. If it is not you may need to
slightly adjust the Reference Distance (G) again.
Configuration
Page 35
Reference Manual
00809-0500-5100, Rev AC
An example of how to perform a calibration is illustrated in Figure 4-6.
The Gauge Reference Distance (G) parameter is used as a calibration offset in order to ensure that the
distance to the reflector (C) measured by the tilt gauge equals the distance to the product surface (L)
measured by the reference level gauge. This will compensate for different mounting positions of tilt and
reference level gauges, and for different position of reflector and product surface.

5.3.1 Floating roof alarm limits
Since each tank is unique, you will need to find proper floating roof alarm limits individually for each tank
roof. The detailed view of the Roof Monitoring window (see Figure 5-3 on page 41) may be helpful as a
tool to find out how to set proper alarm limits for roof tilt and roof floating.
As the product level moves up and down, the History pane shows maximum roof tilt as well as minimum
and maximum deviation of floating position. This may give you an idea of the range of roof tilt and roof
floating which can serve as useful input for specifying appropriate alarm limits.
