CaliX-TAutomated Tank Calibration
Sensor-driven tank calibration that automatically maps liquid height to volume during normal operation — without shutdown or emptying the tank.
Tank Calibration Without Stopping the Process
Conventional tank calibration often relies on manual methods that require significant field effort, operational planning and interruption. CaliX-T replaces that workflow with connected sensors, automated data capture and a portable processing device.
A level sensor measures the changing liquid height while a flow meter measures the quantity entering or leaving the tank. CaliX-T receives both signals and pairs every measured height with the corresponding cumulative volume.
As the tank operates, the system automatically develops the height-versus-volume relationship needed for the calibration table. The tank can remain in service, with no need for a dedicated shutdown or complete emptying solely for calibration.
Two Measurements. One Automatic Calibration Table.
Synchronized level and flow data turn normal filling or transfer activity into a tank calibration run.
Connect Sensors
A suitable level sensor and flow meter are connected to the tank and the portable CaliX-T device.
Start Operation
The tank continues its normal filling, emptying or transfer activity without a special shutdown.
Capture Together
CaliX-T synchronizes liquid height with cumulative transferred volume throughout the operation.
Build the Table
The system automatically produces the height-versus-volume relationship for the tank.
Calibration Approach
| Primary Measurement | Liquid height from a connected level sensor |
| Volume Reference | Cumulative quantity from a connected flow meter |
| Processing | Portable CaliX-T acquisition and automation device |
| Calibration Output | Height-versus-volume relationship / calibration table |
| Operating Condition | Captured during filling, emptying or transfer |
| Tank Status | Remains available for normal operation |
| Field Requirement | No dedicated empty-tank calibration run |
Move Beyond Conventional Calibration
CaliX-T is designed to reduce the operational burden traditionally associated with tank calibration while improving the consistency of field data capture.
- Avoid calibration-only plant shutdowns
- Keep product in the tank during the exercise
- Replace manual point recording with synchronized acquisition
- Use real operating movement to develop the calibration curve
- Reduce field time, coordination and human error
